Lockdown 593

Lockdown Day 593 - 9 November 2021

Yesterday was a rainy day in PE and surrounds. We are extremely grateful for the 30mm in our gauge. Our friends in the Langkloof let us know Joubertina received between 18 and 25 mm. Now thát is something to rejoice about!

The local radio station AlgoaFM broadcast a message from the person in charge of the water crisis. This lady said the city is weeks away from "day zero" and went on about how the people are not panicked about it, but are talking about loadshedding and the election.

Although politics isn't my thing, I happen to remember the recently ousted mayor did actually set up a day zero campaign and raise awareness to preserve this threatened resource. But after he left, nothing happened to further this agenda.

Also, I cannot understand why a desalination plant was started a year ago, but sadly fell into disrepair very quickly. About 6 months ago new plans for the Coega Development Corporation to build a plant were given the green light, but will take a long time before becoming fully operational.

That being said, our water comes from God, and if the people of this area can't agree to stand together in fervent repentance and prayer for the ground of this area, believing in God's provision with all their might........ I cannot think of a life worse than one without water.

So please continue to support us in prayer in trusting God for a miracle. The miracle of immediate alleviation of this drought with 100% dam levels. With God all things are possible. So let's call it.
