Drops of Tears in the Desert is a collection of poems that I wrote while staying in a township. I lived amongst people who drank alcohol daily. There were also students who had relationship with employed married men. These girls were after fashion clothes, shoes, cell phones, laptops and cash.

While writing about the bad things my mother and people did to me, God laid upon my heart to write this book. In this book I talk about my ...

Once The Outcast People a collection of poems that I wrote about Colored People (children born from different races). These are regarded as drunkards, immoral, uncultured, mixed blood, trouble makers, rude, undisciplined, criminals, gangsters and illiterate. These is true for some of Coloreds but then how do we as Christians help some of these people. If God did not use His Afrikaner servant in 2018 to minister deliverance to me, to teach me about forgiveness and love of God I would have been among such ruthless criminals. My mother going all out to destroy me and my child with occult ...

Women Without Wombs: Lamentation of the Childless is a collection of poems that I wrote after undergoing hysterectomy myself. I met fellow Black ladies who had womb problems. Some had cancer, some had fibroids, some had conception and problems. There is such fear, so little knowledge about womb disease out there. Some married women had challenges of their husbands cheating or even divorcing these tormented women. To remove a womb amongst some of us Africans it's still a taboo thing. The woman is called names. One Zimbabwean said in her area the woman is called "a mine". There is this ...

The book you are about to read is based on my painful experience with my mother, sibling, relatives, some members of churches and communities I lived in. Even though I suffered in some churches and under some preachers who call themselves servants of God I continue to serve God and have fellowship with brethren in a church.

The title is rather a provoking one and will raise objections from some people. Nevertheless the Lord gave me this title when I was battling against poverty. I was trying my best to help others out of poverty, sharing the little investment knowledge I know about shares, unit trusts, 32 days’ notice investments, Government Bonds and stockvel . I say little knowledge because I’m not an expert in the field and have a lot to learn. It does not give an excuse to hoarding but encourages givers to give wisely. Most of us were not taught financial skills as children, when we got a coin we ...

Growing up in that environment I learned the joys, tears, criticism of interracial relationships and marriages. Besides all ...
