Matthew 5 King James Version (KJV)
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect

“Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving.”
~ W. T. Purkiser
Blessing Batubo lived with her seven children and her husband in a three-bedroom rented house in Njemanze for 12 years. She was at the market when the demolition started. When she returned home, she found her children standing outside the house. She was unable to save anything. Blessing used to sell soft drinks and beer in Njemanze, but her fridges and stock were destroyed in the demolition. The family is now living at the church. Blessing does not know where her husband is; he left shortly after the demolition. Her husband’s brothers and sisters have been helping her care for the children.
