When Silence Roars!

-
From a milestone I heard a voice roar,
It was not your ordinary siren noise,
Nor was it a loud shout,
It was not a sound that moved mountains.

 But one that moved a soul.
It was a sound that roared so still,
Yet quite,
It was silent yet captivating!

It roared so loud,
I felt demons trembling.
It was silence that roared so loud,
I felt faith being revived.

How words erupted as though a volcanic eruption,
How the cords resembled lava,
Whilst the notes swirled in a form of a thunder,
Causing a stormy weather in my soul!

He sang!
Silently yet swiftly.
He praised,
Wholeheartedly whilst healing!

He roared Silently,
I heard,
I was healed!


-ANDISWA MADIKANE

P.S. I wrote this piece today, in a few minutes time before posting it. It was inspired by Nqubeko Mbatha's praise and worship song title 'Ithemba Lami', which he performed on Gospel Classics last week Sunday. He has a very down to earth personality, shy on ends but when it comes to music direction, his work speaks for him. To hear him praise God as He did last Sunday. I had three words to say and those were, 'WHEN SILENCE ROARS! He roared! Silently yet tenderly and he healed me! Ithemba Lami was the song he sang. His album has amazing songs. Lord bless him and his ever so beautiful wife and a healer herself Ntokozo Mbatha. You can check the track out on YouTube. Ashe!

Willpower: The Fair-weather Friend

-
by Joyce Meyer - posted January 13, 2013 But I say, walk and live [habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to and controlled and guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings and desires of the flesh (of human nature without God). —Galatians 5:16 Willpower sure sounds like a great thing. We are led to believe that we have enough of it to fight off every temptation that comes our way. And sometimes it works. But let me tell you a little secret about willpower. Willpower is your best friend when things go well, but it's the first friend to check out when you get weary. I have found that if I really don't want to do something, my mind gives me plenty of reasons why I don't have to. My emotions even join in, saying, "I agree because I don't feel like doing it anyway." Our soul (mind, will, emotions) would love to run our lives, but the Bible says we are to be led by God's Spirit. We ar

Rise Above Your Trauma: The Keys to Achieving Personal Development

According to Google, Personal Development is a lifelong process. It is a way for people to assess their skills and qualities, consider their aims in life and set goals to realize and maximize their potential. Incidents and events that happened in our lives have scarred many of us. It has injured us to a point where we have lost ourselves, our dreams, visions and aspirations. My story dates back to my earlier years. I grew up as a brilliant and spontaneous child. I was that youth who soared through everything; I had a powerful personality but was also very fearful of displaying my full potential as I passed through an emotional and traumatic childhood. This was a trauma that stuck through and blocked me from bringing out the best version of myself. I continued existence as the little girl who had a wonderful vision of growth. I had flushed out all that I went through and endured life. Likewise, I matriculated, then later on graduated with flying colours. Likewise, I had lived at the

Discovery of the blog title

Holistic Serendipity encompasses all parts of a person; the mind, body and soul in a development of events by chance in a beneficial way (Online Dictionary). The title was inspired by my journey, growing up and discovering my talents in various places unexpectedly. With the assistance of my best friend and sister Andisiwe Mthengwane a journalist in the making and a friend ever available, (follow her blog @ www.blackboldvoice.blogspot.com ), who has inspired me and my sister in so many ways. She is undeniably one in a million, a phrase best to describe her is 'A package sent from Heaven', she is our angel Gabriela.  While daunting in the early hours of our vacation in 2011 December she thought of the word 'Serendipity' to best describe the concept of the blog, which to her was inspired by my discovery of writing. Along with Serendipity we established the word Holistic to be a perfect description of what the blog will focus on. There and then we were not certain as
