Madimikira

Ask the old folk what this all means...back in the day when there was no television,no radio,nothing really to do but sit around the fire listening to ngano or,inganekwane,tsumo,madimikira and so forth.Why entertainment? ...well because once you get into it it is truly a joy to work out and have an idea how our parents used to while away the wee hours.As a people we are calling for the revival of such heritage....take a stroll down memory lane,learn and have fun.

Beautiful Poetry To Inspire

Dawn of A New Season

I stand at the dawn of a new season

And I cannot enter in

For I have not taken the time to understand

The way I should walk therein

I have not kept my hands clean

My mind has not platformed itself to receive the understanding

Of this new dawning

I stand at the dawn of a new season

This self reasons with self

To receive pardon,to receive grace

This self stands at the dawn looking beyond to see

Looking and perceiving and seeing the greatness therein

But unable to avail oneself or to enter in

I stand at the dawn of a new season

Why- the question is asked

Is it so difficult for the grace to be received

For mercy to be perceived

For this heart to open up and receive so as to walk in

Why-so blinded of heart

So impure in spirit

So unclean in hands

I stand at the dawn of a new season

Crying Abba Father hear the cry of my heart

Cleanse and purify me so I can enter in

Wash me by your blood so in righteousness I can walk in

So I can walk in this new dawning

Not of myself but by the Blood

Not in rightness but righteousness

Not only in righteousness but in purity and humbleness of heart

I stand at the new dawn of a season

And my hearts cry is to be meshed into His Presence

For self to no longer be a realisation of me but HIM

For life to no longer be for me but for HIM,his presence,worship,adoration,accolade

Oh Lord so that I can enter in

So I can rejoice once again

And in this new dawn find favour once again in your sight

And be blessed beyond the edge of reason

The Pastors Business Card

A new pastor was visiting the homes of his parishioners.At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home,but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door.Therefore,he took the out a business card and wrote"Revelation3:20" on the back of it and stuck it through the door.

When the offering was processed the following Sunday,he found that his card had been returned.Added to it was this cryptic message,"Genesis 3:10".Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation,he broke up in gales of laughter.

Revelation 3:20 begins.."Behold ,I stand at the door and knock".
Genesis 3:10 reads.."I heard your voice in the garden but I was afraid for I was naked".

"A cheerful heart is good medicine".Prov 17:22
