The FM quotes the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) as saying that load-shedding is ‘a direct result of corruption at Eskom’ (‘Milking the Eskom cow’, 6 March).
An unnamed woman poured an entire year's worth of wages worth of expensive oil over Jesus' head as an act of worship and exaltation. Those around her were furious, calling it a waste of money. But Jesus saw it differently. He praised her for her sacrifice. As followers of Christ, we're called to make sacrifices in our lives. They may come at a cost. But our reward is priceless!
Comments made en passant – which is a pretentious way of saying ‘in passing’ or ‘as an aside’ – can sometimes be very revealing. This occurred to me while looking up an episode of SAFM Sunrise from early November last year.
