God Bless Africa

Date October 2, 2009

When you wake up on a morning like today - where the air is full with the energy of summer and the magnificence of the Cape is sprawled out before you - it’s hard not to feel emotions of intense belonging and blessing.

A prayer that we used to say in junior school came to mind:

God Bless Africa

Guard Her Children

Guide Her Leaders

And Give Her Peace

For Jesus Christ’s Sake

Amen.

Religious undertones aside - the word’s couldn’t be more apt.

On the topic of being patriotic - I dare you to try the sumptuous Grangehurst Pinotage or the silky Rijks Pinotage and then try and tell me that Pinotage is a dud varietal.

Have a great weekend everyone.
