Recognition: 2010

I met an elegant Lady with an elegant spirit.

She encountered the unfair pain that life brings, but confronted it with courage in the face of fear and dispair, because she knew a Higher reality and Conciousness that brings hope and peace and a perspective of a Life hereafter in the presence of God - which is more real to her than the present life she embraces with joy!

I was honoured to give recognition to a Lady who is such an overcomer with such joy and faith - that it is uplifting to read her story.

She displays such childlike faith that there's no room for doubt and that is why I believe she received what she believed for - it was according to her faith.

Thanks Lorraine for being such an inspiration te me!

I met this wonderful Lady in Ellisras, with her baby daughter on her hip - and with so much to say in her beautiful eyes...............

She received her award and with tears in her eyes, and told me that the flowers she received will go on the grave of her three children.

She is an overcomer by the Grace of God - she says.

Read her story she wrote.

I had the honour to give recognition to an amazing lady in Kimberley. If you read her story she sent me - you will see why......

It was good to know that when she wrote her story it was a release and she said she should have done it long ago.

She is such an overcomer and such an inspiration and a role model.

This Lady, Marinda, had to gather herself together, and take over a farm, and to make ends meet and fend for her two daughters after her husband left them and the farm in great debt, and learn to farm as a farmer.

In this she actually foud her passion and was nominated as Woman Farmer of 2008 in the Western Cape for the best national farmer in the Western Cape. But she is also a social worker and lives out her passion in building into you peoples' lives.

Meet her as you read her story.

I met this awesome lady at my recent presentation in Middelburg.  To me she is an example of some one that I can look up to. I have the highest respect for the way she handles her circumstances.

It really is true that we are not that different and that we can learn from each other.

On March the 11th, at my show "die Hartklop van Vrouwees" in Kimberley, a very striking lady approached me.
Her eyes shone and she shared with me her story what had happened in her life, since she attended my programme, that I presented in Kimberley in 2008.

I asked her to please put it in writing, and when I read it, it was so inspiring to me, that I decided that other women should hear her story.

I would like to give her recognition on the website, for being such a strong inspiring person, and such a role model for her children and for many.

In May 2009 we gave recognition to an amazing woman, principal of Bastion Laerskool in the Western Cape. If you speak to the teachers about her, they all have the greatest respect for her. She always has a listeneing ear, despite her own problems.....

She is an unsung hero, an overcomer, and someone who deserves to be recognized as an inspiration to others.

I gave recognition to an amazing cancer survivor in Middelburg when I did my show for Middelburg Hospice in September - 450 women supported this cause - and we recognized this strong little lady who just won't give up fighting the cancer attacks in her life.

She is such an example to so many.

Here she shares her situation in her life and her truths with us in her own words:

I gave recognition to a very precious lady - someone who had to learn the hard way - but she got up, and decided to care for herself and her children with the help of the Lord.

She is someone who has walked the second mile more than once.

Here she shares her story in her own words.
