africa christian church faith god jesus jesuschrist missiontrip molibongwe safari southafrica

This is a journal I wrote while I was on a week long mission trip in South Africa.

You'll read stories about my adventure to South Africa, interactions with the locals, the amazing food, and most importantly how God used that week to transform me, those on the mission team, and those who we interacted with.

Before each day I have a reference verse as a thought or concentration for the day. Hope it is encouraging to you!

I will hopefully be able to update this story weekly!All Rights Reserved

By Grace[BWWM] by JasmynTailor

Blossom and Bloom Graceful and Tender - She couldn't believe her ears, or her eyes. Her husband, the man she loves, the father of her unborn baby, was asking for a divorce. "Mason," She stammered, but he held his hand up in the air. "I'll arrange a place for you and our child to stay, I'll send weekly support for the child. Just sign the papers," He urged her and handed her the pen. She took it hesitantly, hoping that this was only a dream, she prayed to wake up. "I love you," She whispered and signed her name on the allotted space. And though she would miss him, she knew better than to fight for a man's love. Somehow, he didn't love her anymore. It hurt her heart, but once a man made up his mind, nothing could make him change his mind. She even knew that much. She placed the pen down and walked to the door. "Goodbye," He looked up from the papers and smiled. "Be on your way," And with those final words, her heart crumbled into pieces. - Let the story of Vanessa Grace take you on a journey of transformation. - The Clean Reads Collection Are you looking for a clean read with Christian themes?

The Art Of AK by Mya2tact

"Beautiful things don't ask for attention." In a world that thrives on conformity, August is an anomaly. Raised in a secretive overbearing family, she was chosen to leave its hidden grounds-not for freedom, but for duty. Sent to college to become the strategic mind for her generation behind the family's growing empire, she tries to move through the world like a ghost, draped in gothic shadows with secrets too heavy to share but her style is just too much to go unnoticed by judging eyes unscathed. Then she meets Kason through his older brother. A rising rapper with a reckless charm and a hunger for something real, dealing with battles of his own, he's instantly drawn to August's eerie demeanor and the quiet storm that lingers behind her dark mysterious eyes. She's nothing like the women he's used to-unbothered by trends, and untouched by the need for validation. The more she resists, the deeper he falls, his infatuation turning into an obsession he can't shake. One he cant let go of. As their worlds collide, the slow burn of their connection threatens to ignite everything August has been taught to suppress. With her past closing in and expectations pressing down, she must decide if she's willing to defy everything she's ever known for the chance at something dangerously real. In a society that demands she fit a mold, August stands in defiance. Unfortunately, love has a way of making even the strongest question their silence.

God Knows You By Name by carolynannaish

A random journal/blog/diary with poems and lyrics, many about NAMES - my name, your name, and other names. Also, a diary of journeys we go on in our thoughts, actions, deeds, and beliefs. The genre 'Random' fits this work perfectly. The idea for sharing comfort from one's name began on May 17th, 2018, with the confirmation that I have cancer and needed more surgery and perhaps on-going treatment. How advanced it was had to be determined by an MRI and X-ray... this was the start of this journey and how everything changed when I focussed on God instead of myself. Dedicated to Elsa whose encouragement has been a great source to inspire me in my writing and in particularly this journal-book for the journeys we each travel in our mission to please our Saviour, Jesus Christ. After 40 chapter/parts, I've pressed the 'complete' button and likely will begin another in 2019 - in the meantime I have another work here titled, 'Bible Verses, Images and Poems' which has 17 parts and I'm updating it with a Christmas Poem today. Bless you, all, and thanks for reading here.

JUST CREEPIN' by Mya2tact

"What's wrong ma?" He questioned after a few seconds when she didn't respond to him. "Do you plan on having sex with me." She rested her chin on her knees that were pulled up to her chest. "Why?" He laughed slightly. In a way, he liked watching her struggle to maintain her composure. Jourie loved sex. "Cause I want you to fuck me on the balcony." She smiled softly. --- Jourie had been set up since before she was even thought of. With a mother who owned hair salons, a father who owned auto repair shops, both being scattered all over the map in different locations, and a large family that loves her and vice versa, she had anything a girl could ever wish for and more. She lacked the stereotypical bubbly personality that people assumed came with her and the higher hierarchy status she possessed. Still, she was nothing far from normal.Determined to make her parents proud, jourie always stayed on her best behavior. Straying far away from trouble. Like a record scratching, her life is brought to a halt when jourie has no choice but to face trouble coming for her head on when a new love interest finds a way to creep into her heart. With a strong built family, she learns even the ones who don't share the blood are the closest thing to family you have. So will jourie allow her new and forbidden love interest to shatter the strong built relationship she has with her family, or will her love interest beat her to the catch and do it for her?

This will be a compilation of my daily journal as I entered into a month of solitude as a guest Hermitine at D'Sanctum. I am so grateful for this experience, it was an intense period of solitude, rest and prayer. God is really so good!

"You trust me?" I look up at him, staring into his light brown eyes that stared directly at me. It felt like he was staring into my soul trying to read me. I could barely answer his question because I was busy looking at him. Once I realized I was staring like crazy, I quickly look down. "I do." ----------------------------- She's the girl you never saw coming, the unexpected one who calms you, centers you, and still she turns out to be the surprise love of your love.

How we made it in South Africa by BenGrahamvanderSandt

I invite you to share in our journey. I started writing this book 13 May 2008 It takes you through our whole experience of rising up and prospering in South Africa - even under a racist ANC government. I've written this book as an inspiration, that even in the face of huge adversity, you can come out on the other side and make it. However, my wish for you is not to only "make it" - but live your best life. I invite you to come on this journey with us. It was sometimes an emotional rollercoaster with many trials and tribulations, but the end result was worth it. This book is very special and unique in the sense that it was started and written while I was at the lowest point in my life with no salvation in sight... It's wasn't written in hindsight or after the fact. It started with hope, a dream, a promise. You will see when you start going through these pages - If I could make it, surely you can. The book also has a public Facebook page "How we made it in South Africa" with loads of pictures and videos of us and our adventures. You're most welcome to visit the page and say hi. Enjoy your journey.

SMARTBOOM - FORBIDDEN PASSION by chosennelz

"What are you doing in here?" Boom's voice. was low, clipped, but not loud enough to draw attention outside. Smart didn't answer. He stepped closer, then closer, and before Boom could retreat, Smart wrapped his arms around him from behind, slow, careful, but deliberate. Boom went rigid. His breath caught. Smart lowered his head just slightly, lips hovering near Boom's ear. "I just want to talk." Some ghosts don't haunt you. They wait for you to come back. ⚠️ Content Warning: 🔞 The story Contains mature themes, explicit content and references to a complex past. This is a story of emotional aftermath, forbidden love, and navigating trauma years later. All characters in the present timeline are adults. Reader discretion is strongly advised. After years of silence, Smart walks into a job interview hoping to forget the past but fate has other plans. One look at the man across the table is enough to bring it all rushing back. A name he thought he'd never hear again. A face he was never meant to see. A past neither of them has truly left behind. In a world built on secrets and appearances, what happens when buried truths start to resurface? And how do you protect what's forbidden... when it never stopped feeling right? Slow-burn | LGBTQ+ | Emotional healing | Forbidden past. Characters are fictional. Images used for visual inspiration only - no affiliation with the real individuals.
