Before I came to Alon
farm, 6 years ago, I was a ‘born again’ believer in Jesus, living in Cape
Town with my family. However, immediately when I arrived at Alon what
challenged me was to see people who lived the message and did not just
speak about serving the Lord and one another. For the first time I was
seeing God at work in a real way in people’s lives. Coming from the 'coloured'
culture (and living only with 'coloured' people), God has set me free from
many cultural limitations. Before it was not easy for me to communicate
with other races. I now live with people from many nations and races,
coming from many different backgrounds. It is amazing to serve the Lord
together with other brothers and sisters. By the grace of God my thinking
has expanded and my character developed in this ‘never a dull moment’ life
we have together. It is wonderful to have Jesus at the centre and to
continually be learning new things as together we go forward in Him. In
these six years it has been an amazing journey, I have learned a lot and
gained much experience. |
