Watchword – November 28

Let Your merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to Your word to Your servant. – Psalm 119:76

Dream Of Tomorrow

Dearest Oscar,

I don’t ask you to be strong, because you have never been anything else. I beg you to not give up! Every time you feel hopeless, find strength in that you have come this far. You have stumbled and fallen, but always got up again! Never lose faith – never lose hope. Endure today, but dream of tomorrow. Better times will come! You will live, love and laugh again.  Hold on!

With much love
Ulla

Disability Is More Than People Realise

My dear Oscar,

I think of you so often & my prayers are always with you & your family just as it always had been with Reeva & her family. I had so often thought of you & the very public hell you had to endure. My firm believe has always been that it was a most awful accident that could & most probably have happened before, the very high profile popularity of both of you had made this very tragic horror public fodder.

My stepfather had lost both his arms in a train accident when I was 5 years old, I & my brother his son, did everything for him as my Mum had to go work. Living with disability is more than people realise unless they witness first hand the every day struggles & vulnerability that is exposed when you are confronted with challenging situations that you cannot understand unless you have witnessed it first hand.

I am so very sorry that this has happened to you. I value life as precious & is most thankful that you had the courage & stood up & faced this hell head on.. It speaks volumes of the man you are, even if you don’t feel or see it yourself. Be courageous & strong, sometimes it is from one second to the next, just persevere, even at your most vulnerable & weak you have Jehovah the true & living God & his son Jesus standing with you. Oscar, you have so much knowledge, love & inspiration in you that will inspire so many out here. Remember it is not how many times you fall but that you get up every time.. you have reached the Pinnacle of success, been there, however it is not the fame & fortune that determine your worth but what you give to others.

My prayers always with you.
Beuhla.

Have Strength

Dearest Oscar,

Every day you wake up and open you’re eyes always remember that god is watching over you and we also love you the same.
Some days when you feel like your world is becoming too much to bear, god will carry you through…..remember the poem; Footprints in The Sand. God has never and will never leave you, just as we who love you will never leave you.

When you feel there is no love left in your soul and the days and nights feel cold and empty, we and god love you more because you are and will never be alone, have faith hope and assuring that you are loved by many and through love you will move forward.

Here’s a picture of me and my pooch Poppy to keep you smiling:

Isaiah 41:10 And 40:29
Joshua 1:9
Philippians 4:13

Have strength my dearest Oscar, God has a plan for each and every one of us and will never give us more than we can cope with, I sometimes feel that some things are sent to test not only our faith but also to show us each what we can handle no matter what the circumstances, God will provide.

Love and best wishes from us in the UK and hope to catch up with you when I’m next in Africa soon xx

God bless
Burney

May You Be Protected

May you be protected — granted strength — much life ahead

I hope you will be powerfully protected from all harm and given strength with which to recover tenfold from this ordeal. The extension of sentence was unjust, transparently so, and your self control will be used to help others facing similar obstacles. My students here in Prague, Czech Republic, were and still are enthusiasts of your work – your inspiring devotion to sport and society, to human betterment. May you recover every day, believing in all the good placed in you and never believing lies and other distortions of those amazing gifts given to you by your family friends, country.

We Understand

Dear Oscar,

With each hour, day, week, month, year, there are those of us who stand with you. We have committed to pray for you and long for your release from prison. We understand the horror of it all. We see that the world’s system of “justice” has shown how uncompassionate man has become and how the voice of the media swayed public perception before any evidence was heard, let alone listened to. This attitude even infiltrated the supposedly top legal minds at the Supreme Court and you were used as a political toy, a scape goat for the woes of many social issues. Oscar, if you get to read this, know that this is not Gods way at all. He is our true liberty from all this rubbish that was thrown your way. I think of you frequently and like many others, pray for your endurance in this toughest of all trials that life has thrown at you. If you try to live with an eternal perspective, then each day will be easier. If you think, how can I bless The Lord today and give a smile to that depressed fellow prisoner or if you say, Jesus, thank you that you live inside me and we can talk when I cannot talk to those I want to, if you read His Word, it becomes light and life in a dark place. And one day when you finally get to exit those prison doors, you might even thank God for all He has taught you and for the maturity, wisdom and humanity which He will place in you, if you let Him. Be encouraged, the best really is yet to come!

Watchword – June 3rd

Light arises in the darkness for the upright; he is gracious and compassionate and righteous.~
Psalm 112:4

A Direct Line

I do believe that my admiration for you as a human being is that despite your challenges and disabilities as a child you overcame them and became a real hero and an example for all the young people and older ones. I know all what we do when we are grown up, has a direct line from our childhood and I can see you as a little boy scared crying and that brakes my heart but then you became a star and people were following and so proud. But I always know that people always likes to take wood from the tree that has fallen. They forget the good and they only can focus in negative things,they make their own stories and cause so much pain. I have a gift of see things and I can see your innocence and feel so sad with the unfairness you have been treated but God is the Supreme Judge and He is the only want that knows your heart and as I can see is pure and innocent.Keep with your visualisation and your focusing in the word Freedom. You will believe in Miracles soon. Get some books to help you to meditate and by doing so your mind keeps calm for 20 minutes and your whole body will feel so relax. When you meditate you are inside a place but your mind can take you to beautiful fields of flowers and to feel happy. Remember everything is in our mind and make sound crazy to you but you can be free if you meditate and imagine yourself anywhere you want. It will be real as I do believe in you.

With Great Respect

Our Dearest most precious Oscar.

Just to tell you I think of you everyday.
When I awake in the morning I say Our Fathers Pray & I sometimes repeat it many times a day because that is how often I think of you.
There are many many of us who are aware of the Hell you are living everyday. Society has become a sick, corrupted mess. I cannot begin to imagine how our Angels in Heaven are feeling. However Oscar they are there! This must be very hard for you to believe and I have so many things I could say to you however let us not throw Pearls before the swine.
Know that you are loved & many understand what has happened from start to present.

We pray for You Oscar.
We Love You Oscar.
God Bless you.

With Great Respect to you Oscar.
Michele
