I write this regarding the racist utterance of a political party's councillor in our South African parliament, about the minority 'white' Afrikaners, in our country.

____________________________

Willie Aucamp, the DA’s national spokesperson, said:

“The councillor’s statement, expressing a desire to ‘m*er a boer’ and his utterance that he ‘wants the blood of an Afrikaner’, is a blatant display of hate speech and racism that has no place in our democratic society.

“The EFF is a party of hatred and chaos. They are the ‘breakers’ that seek to sow division and incite violence, undermining the values of unity and respect that our nation is built upon.”

See the few seconds clip in this video where the councillor is spewing his vileness in parliament. That's all their party brings to the table, hatred and racism against the minority in this country. (The Democratic Alliance also brought criminal charges against the racist councillor.) I hope and pray that justice shall prevail. Pray with us please, whoever reads here.🙏🕊️

Vileness is Exalted

Psalms 12:1-8 NIV

[1] Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore; those who are loyal have vanished from the human race. 

[2] Everyone lies to their neighbor; they flatter with their lips but harbor deception in their hearts. 

[3] May the Lord silence all flattering lips and every boastful tongue— 

[4] those who say, “By our tongues we will prevail; our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?” 

[5] “Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan, I will now arise,” says the Lord. “I will protect them from those who malign them.” 

[6] And the words of the Lord are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold refined seven times. 

[7] You, Lord, will keep the needy safe and will protect us forever from the wicked, 

[8] who freely strut about when what is vile is honored by the human race.

Psalm 94:15 NIV

Judgment will again be founded on righteousness,🙌🏻😇 and all the upright in heart will follow it.

Renew Your Mind

1 Peter 5:7 CEV
God cares for you, so turn all your worries over to him. 

Philippians 4:13 
Christ gives me the strength to face anything. 

Romans 12:2 
Don't be like the people of this world, but let God change the way you think. Then you will know how to do everything that is good and pleasing to him.

Renew your mind by finding hope in God’s Word.

Prayer:
"Lord, thank you for giving me strength to face all conditions—including anxiety. I pray that whenever I feel anxiety creeping in, I will find strength in the truths in your Word. May your words fill me with hope in anxious moments. May they shine light in the darkness of fear and sorrow. And may their truths chase away every lie, every thought that isn’t from you. In Jesus’s name, I pray. Amen."

Break Anxiety's Grip

Uncover the sources of your anxiety

Do you have trust issues with God? Do you believe that He loves you and will help you when you pray and ask Him? You must pray in faith and where you lack faith, ask God to increase your faith.

Stop being afraid of fear
Faith overcomes fear.
Trust God and overcome your fear.

⁸ Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are  lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there  is any virtue and if there  is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. 

Colossians 3:2 NKJV
² Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

⁸ I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

Joshua 1:9 NKJV

Be strengthened by God's word.

Offer up your prayers and requests to God

I Peter 5:7 NKJV
⁷ casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Talk to God about your fears. He surely will help you overcome them by His Spirit when you give your concerns to Jesus, your Prince of Peace and He will give you His perfect peace.🕊🩷

Worries Out of Control

 ♡~•~♡~•~🩷🄹🄴🅂🅄🅂🩷~•~♡~•~♡

When Worry Gets Out of Control
Give It All To Jesus

1 Peter 5:7 CEV‬
[7]  God cares for you, so turn all your worries over to him.

Matthew 6:25-34 CEV‬
[25] I tell you not to worry about your life. Don't worry about having something to eat, drink, or wear. Isn't life more than food or clothing?
[26] Look at the birds in the sky! They don't plant or harvest. They don't even store grain in barns. Yet your Father in heaven takes care of them. Aren't you worth much more than birds?
[27] Can worry make you live longer?
[28] Why worry about clothes? Look how the wild flowers grow. They don't work hard to make their clothes.
[29]  But I tell you that Solomon with all his wealth wasn't as well clothed as one of them.
[30] God gives such beauty to everything that grows in the fields, even though it is here today and thrown into a fire tomorrow. God will surely do even more for you! Why do you have such little faith?
[31] Don't worry and ask yourselves, “Will we have anything to eat? Will we have anything to drink? Will we have any clothes to wear?”
[32] Only people who don't know God are always worrying about such things. Your Father in heaven knows you need all of these.
[33] But more than anything else, put God's work first and do what he wants. Then the other things will
be yours as well.
[34] Don't worry about tomorrow. It will take care of itself. You have enough to worry about today.
