ALWAYS REMEMBER

ALWAYS REMEMBER,
when God made you He did so with a purpose and a plan.
He saw all your days before you lived one of them
and placed over you the covering of His protective love.
He has allowed nothing to come into your life
that has not first been screened through that love.

He calls you by name.
You are His beloved child. . .the apple of His eye. . .the delight of His heart.

His hand has remained upon you to this very day.
He will be with you as He has always been -
in goodness, in kindness, in faithfulness, and in love.

~Roy Lessin

Youth Day ~ South Africa

Today's post is for all my South African friends celebrating Youth Day and remembering the Soweto Uprising of June 16, 1976.  It is also a time to remember and pray for Nelson Mandela - an exemplary visionary and an extraordinary human being.  He wrote: "As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison."  Profound words to lead a broken country out of apartheid and words that can still inspire us today.
