If I have wounded qny soul today
If I have caused one foot to go astray
If I have walked in my own willful way
Dear Lord, forgive

If I have uttered idle words in vain
If I have turned aside from want or pain
Lest I offend some other through the strain
Dear Lord, forgive

Forgive the sins I have confessed to Thee
Forgive the secret sins I do not see
Oh, guide me, love me, and my keeper be
DEAR LORD, FORGIVE 🙏

As this day of 19th January comes to an end, I look back and give God all the glory for His faithfulness.

I remember clearly how God spoke to me, when I went through my own sorrows and pain. God said to me, it's ok to preach the gospel, to pray for the sick and cast out demons but what happens with those who are broken and empty, ...those who scream and cry out for help? "No one careth for my soul, cries the millions"... they don't need someone who rebuke or judge them, but they are in need of someone with an ear to hear and a heart to understand. God thalen instructed me to start a Clinic for those who are broken and scattered, irrespective their gender, faith or background.

Today, a year ago, by His grace and the support of Rivers of Joy family and so many others, I put my foot in the river Jordan and opened the Graham Taff Community Counselling Clinic. By His grace I can say, many received healing and deliverance. I saw how God restored broken marriages and reconciled families. As I said in my opening speech, when I preach, everyone is listening to me, but when I counsel, I have the opportunity to listen to a broken person who lost interest in life. When they walk out and you see the smile on their faces, it gives me joy and fulfilment. Knowing a wounded life, a broken marriage and a scattered family is slowly but surely on the way to restoration.

Sadly and unfortunately, due to unknown and unforeseen logistical challenges, I have decided to move the office back to the Church. But remember: Graham Taff Community Counselling Clinic is back at the Church but back to serve the Community. I trust that those who were helped by the Clinic will be able to share their testimonies with family and friends who are also in pain. One thing I know, the world don't need shows, actors and empty promises BUT they need someone who will help them to find their new destiny.

Our new address is:

Rivers of Joy Tabernacle
Cnr Geelhout & Orleans Ave
New Orleans, Paarl

Office hours: Tues- Thursdays

Ek lees iewers: WHEN GOD COULD'VE, BUT HE DIDN'T...

Dinge kon so anders wees, ons kon onsself op 'n ander plek bevind het... dalk op 'n hospitaalbed, dalk ver van familie, ons kinders of ons geliefdes... ons kon dalk langs die pad gelê het, maar dankie Here vir 'n nuwe dag, nuwe krag, nuwe geleenthede.

'n Absolute goddelike voorreg. Wat jy ookal beplan vir vandag, waar jy ookal gaan wees, weet dit: Dit is die goederentierenhede van die HERE dat ons nie omgekom het nie, want sy barmhartighede het geen einde nie; hulle is elke môre nuut. Klaagliedere 3:22-23

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,, for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

Shalom

Heavenly Father, as our children (learners) start the new school year, guard them from harm, watch over their journeys to and from school, and keep our classrooms safe, creating a community of care. Help them to be obedient and listen attentively.

Grant our Educators endurance and patience, help them to be effective, and give the learners courage to face challenges and seek help when needed." Amen

Wishing all our boys and girls as well as our Educators, a blessed and amazing 1st day back at school.

Phil 4:13 - I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Aan alle MATRIKULANTE, wat met groot verwagting op julle uitslae wag, luister asseblief na my.

Ek skryf dit aan jou, as 'n pa en 'n Pastoor. Ek is nie 'n sielkundige of 'n psigiater nie, maar 'n man wat deur God geroep is om ander te dien.

Die resultate van jou eksamens kan jou maak of breek. Laat my toe om jou te help om die reus te trotseer.

1. Konfronteer die skuldvrae soos:

* "Wat as ek misluk?"
* Hoe sal my ouers voel!
* Wat van die koste van die matriekafskeid?
* Hoe sal ek my ouers, familie en klasmaats in die oë kyk?

Met hierdie onbeantwoorde vrae mag jy d**k daar is maklike uitweë, waarvan ek twee sal uitlig: Laat ek opgee, moenie probeer herskryf nie, want ek is 'n mislukking.

NEE! Luister na my: jy is NIE 'n mislukking nie.

JY sal uit die donker, hopelose put opstaan en, deur Sy genade, sê: Ek weier om op te gee, maar ek glo ook in 'n tweede kans.

Onthou: JY KAN!

2) Ek kan nie hierdie reus van mislukking in die gesig staar nie. Omdat ek dit nie kan hanteer nie, d**k ek dit is die beste om my lewe te beëindig.
Deur die jare heen is soveel ouers, klasmaats en families verwoes en gebroke, wanneer seuns en dogters dit aan hulle gedoen het. Ek smeek jou, praat met iemand as jy nie die negatiewe uitkoms kan hanteer nie.

Onthou, jy sal weg wees, maar jou ouers en familie sal sukkel met onbeantwoorde vrae. Sommige ouers kan ook met 'n gebroke hart sterf.

Onthou, jy is kosbaar en jy is bestem vir 'n doel in die lewe. Ek het baie keer misluk en deur baie pynlike dinge gesukkel, MAAR vandag kan ek 'n instrument in God se hand wees om ander te help.

Baie geluk aan al die studente wat geslaag het, gaan asseblief en maak 'n sukses van julle toekoms. Deur dit te doen, vat die hand van diegene wat ontmoedig voel en herinner hulle: HULLE / JY KAN.

Ouers, as jou kind onsuksesvol was, vat hulle asseblief aan die hand en lei hulle. Soek asseblief hulp vir hulle. Ek bid God se beskerming en leiding oor jou.

Julle is die leiers waarop ons gewag het.

Graham Taff van die
Graham Taff Gemeenskapsberadingskliniek.

NB: Jy kan my 'n boodskap stuur as jy net 'n oor nodig het om te luister en 'n hart om te verstaan.

To all MATRICULANTS, awaiting your results with great expectation, please listen to me.

I'm writing this to you, as a father and a Pastor. I'm not a psychologist or a psychiatrist, but a man called by God to serve others.

The results of your exams can break or make you. Allow me to help you to face the giant.

1.Face the guilt questions such as: "What if I failed?"
"How will my parents feel!"
"What about the cost of the matricball?"
"How will I face my parents, family and classmates?"

With these unanswered questions, you may think there are easy ways out, two of which I will highlight: Let me give up, don't try to re-write because I'm a failure.

NO! Listen to me, you are NOT a failure.

YOU will rise from the dark, hopeless pit, and say, by His grace, I refuse to give up, but I also believe in a second chance.

Remember: YOU CAN!

2) I can't face this giant of being a failure. Because I can't handle it, I think it is best to end my life.
Through the years, so many parents, classmates, families were devastated and heartbroken, when sons and daughters did this to them. I plea with you, talk to someone if you can't handle the negative outcome.

Remember, you will be gone, but your Parents and family will struggle with unanswered questions. Some parents may also die with a broken heart.

Remember, you are precious and you are earmarked for a purpose in life. I failed many times and struggled through a lot of painful things, BUT today, I can be an instrument in the hand of God to help others.

Congratulations to all students who passed, please go and make a success of your future. In doing that, take the hand of those who feel discouraged and remind them: THEY / YOU CAN.

Parents, if your child was unsuccessful, please take them by the hand and guide them. Please seek help for them. I pray God's protection and guidance over you.

YOUR ARE THE LEADERS WE WERE WAITING FOR.

Graham Taff from Graham Taff Community Counceling Clinic.

PS: You may inbox me if you just need an ear to listen and a heart to understand.

MESSAGE FROM GRAHAM M TAFF

Dear Friends, the year 2025 is coming to an end.

This year I conducted / attended many funerals.... congregants, family, colleague, close friend and acquaintances.

Today I want to think of those who went through that painful, unbearable experience. While others prepare to enjoy the Festive Season, you struggle with pain.

Let me to help you! Allow yourself to express your feelings...the inner feelings no-one knows about. This is unfortunately an empty space and feeling that you can't explain to others, and quite frankly, you don't have to.

REMEMBER IT'S OK TO FEEL THE WAY YOU DO. If Martha and Mary accused Jesus, what is the difference between us and them? It's ok if your tears flow, when you don't feel to be among people. Take time out for yourself, and remember, God is not angry when you feel sad or even disappointed. There will be times when you want to be alone or don't feel like praying: He is God, our Friend, Comforter and Healer, He understands you.

Know this: You can hold on to Him, He understands the language of the tears you shed.

Be not dismayed... God will work it out and He will take care of you.
