ANGELIC IS THY SWEET SOUNDING VOICE....RUTH MOFOKENG

Here is another deserving young woman of God whom I would love to appreciate in the August month for women.

 Dedicated daughter of the most high, one who worships God in spirit and in truth. I am talking about Ruth Mofokeng. A daughter, a sister, an aunt, a wife-to-be and a friend to many. Never in a day since I have ever met and known Ruth have I ever seen a frown on her face.

Ruth and her sister and my namesake Faith

It was a Sunday morning at our Children's Church teachers' Prayer Meeting when I first met Ruth. I was drawn to her by her warm genuine smile of which it is very seldom I meet a person who smiles like I do at strangers. We introduced ourselves to each other. She had just joined to serve and teach in our church's children's ministry where I also serve.

Ruth has been such a blessing in my life and she does not know it. She is one of those people who would just call me unexpectedly and whenever she did I could not hear it is her. She has this small childlike voice when she speaks and would refer to me as "ausi Faith. Which in our culture referring to someone as ausi/sister is out of respect and acknowledging someone is older than you. Yes I am a big sister to Ruth as she is as young as Lebo Ledwaba (see previous blog-post). With that same child-like voice she can sing.

Ruth's singing voice is so sweet and melodic I believe it can turn an unrepentetive heart to Christ because she herself loves Christ wholeheartedly. I appreciate and treasure the voicenotes she records for me and sends to me. She would even record herself in a taxi just for my pleasure. I would play the notes over and over through my phone singing along with her. Even my 6month old son calms down when he hears a song she recorded specially for him. He even smiles and hums with her till he sleeps. My hubby and I had the pleasure of Ruth singing at our wedding. She sang "Golden" by Chrisette Michelle as I walked down the isle.

Taken from her Facebook Pictures

Before Ruth's voice there is a human being, a young woman who is full of true love for God and for people. She is the most wealthiest person I know personally. Wealthy in giving, wealthy in love, joy, peace and happiness. She has so much to give to those in need. Ruth is one of those people who would rather go hungry so that another person can have what she was going to have. She puts others' needs first. She is also a very humble young woman and I see God lifting her up.

Ruth and our Mam- Bishop Gege Sono

I forgot to mention, Ruth is not just beautiful inside. She is a gorgeous dark-skinned beauty with beautiful brown eyes and bright beaming smile. I know she is feeling shy as she reads this. It took a man who is acquainted with God to discover her, hidden in Christ and this young man has truly found God's favour.

Beloved One

Young, beautiful, dedicated woman of God, how sweet is they voice when you sing? How wonderful are thy words you pen down when thou write poems, dedicating thy love to God, bearing thou seeking heart unto Him who is the Lord....
Ruth is also a poet. She does not just right words that rhyme or stanzas that flow but she rights truth, love and words from the heart flowing with her love for God. Young, talented and gifted.

I love this picture

I love this woman and appreciate who she is in my life and other people's lives. I know I'm not the only recipient of her blessed being but many can add and echo their appreciation and experience with her. She is not selfish with the gospel as she spreads it on social networks. Even when I talk to Ruth she speaks nothing feeble but speaks the love of God and lives it as well. May the Lord keep increasing her in Jesus' name.
