"When Deep Sleep Falls" Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
Picture downloaded from website www.simplydivinelove.blogspot.com
Job Chapter 33: 14-30
God does speak--now one way, now another--
though man may not perceive it.
In a dream, in a vision of the night,
when deep sleep falls on men as they slumber in their beds,
he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings,
to turn man from wrong doing and keep him from pride,
to preserve his soul from the pit,
his life from perishing by the sword.
Or a man may be chastened
on a bed of pain with constant distress in his bones,
so that his very being finds food repulsive
and his soul loathes the choicest meal.
His flesh wastes away to nothing,
and his bones, once hidden, now stick out.
His soul draws near to the pit,
and his life to the messengers of death.
"Yet if there is an angel on his side as a mediator,
one out of a thousand, to tell a man what is right for him,
to be gracious to him and say,
'Spare him from going down to the pit;
I have found a ransom for him'--
then his flesh is renewed like a child's;
it is restored as in the days of his youth.
He prays to God and finds favor with him,
he sees God's face and shouts for joy;
he is restored by God to his righteous state.
Then he comes to men and says,
'I sinned, and perverted what was right,
but I did not get what I deserved.
He redeemed my soul from going down to the pit,
and I will live to enjoy the light.'
"God does all these things to a man--
twice, even three times--
to turn back his soul from the pit,
that the light of life may shine on him.

FAITH
Faith
Though dark and lonely is the path and I can’t clearly see,
Though storms may rage in fury, and uncertain life may be;
Though all around seems hopeless and the future cold and bleak,
Though overwhelmed by fear and doubt, it’s God’s face I will seek.
It’s trusting in a faithful God Who’ll never let me go,
It’s looking to a future that only God can know,
It’s claiming every promise so that on God’s Word I stand
It’s knowing that I’m safely held within God’s mighty hand.

Quote:
"Amazing the stories you find on overseas websites. Not sure I've seen this story on a South African website...I'll keep looking. Seems like the man was hacked to death with a machete and the wife shot through the heart. Only 2 mobile phones are missing.
A RETIRED British couple were murdered during a robbery at their South African seaside home and dumped in the boot of their car, police said yesterday.
The bodies of Christopher and Jennifer Early were found after their car was used as a getaway vehicle and then abandoned.
Detectives say the couple, aged 69 and 62, were attacked at their secluded beachfront villa in Hibberdene, 60 miles south of Durban....."

Defender James Langley Dalton VC Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth
Quote:
"Why was he awarded the Victoria Cross?
Superintended the work of defence and was amongst those receiving the first wave of attack, where he saved the life of a man by killing the Zulu assailant. Although wounded himself, he continued to give the same display of cool courage throughout the action. He was 46 at the time of the defence......
James Dalton was born in London in 1833. He enlisted in 85th Foot in November 1849 aged 17. He transferred to the Commissariat Corps in 1862 as a Corporal, and was promoted to Sergeant in the following year. Four years later, he became a clerk and a Master-Sergeant. He served with Sir Garnet Wolseley on the Red River Expedition (Canada) in 1870.
He retired from the army, with a Long Service & Good Conduct medal in 1871 after 22 years service. By 1877, he was in South Africa and volunteered for service as Acting Assistant Commissary with the British Force. It was largely due to his experience, which made the defence of Rorke's Drift a success. At first his contribution was not recognised; however reports of his actions finally reached the ears of senior officers and even Queen Victoria.
He received his VC from General Hugh Clifford VC at a special parade at Fort Napier on 16 January 1880. He returned to army service being given a permanent commission. He sailed for England in February 1880. He soon returned to South Africa and took part shares in a gold mine. It is thought that he went to stay with his old friend, ex-Sgt John Sherwood Williams, at the Grosvenor Hotel, Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape just before Christmas 1886. After spending the 7th January 1887 in bed, he died suddenly during the night, aged 53.. (His VC is in the Royal Logistic Corps Museum, Blackdown, Camberley, Surrey)....."
