I love Jesus

Welcome to Calvin's Page

 

My name is Calvin John Naude. I was born on 21st December 1965, in Bulawayo, Rhodesia, (now Zimbabwe.) It was a long and difficult birth, the cord was round my neck -- I did not breath on my own. I am Athetoid Cerebral Palsy with Dysarthria. But with normal, intellect, eyesight and hearing = confined to a wheelchair. (TOTAL CARE) A QUAD. I went to King George VI School and Rehabilitation centre, for physically handicapped. Bulawayo.

We left Zimbabwe in July 1985 and came to Pietermaritzburg. Where I had a private tutor for 5 years. (My parents take care of me. Physically and Financially.)

John Chap: 9 Vs 1 – 4:

My Mom used to pray with me. At bedtime, mom put on my Depend on me. After light went off. I would lie there, thinking who is GOD / JESUS. And I would pray "GOD who are you." One day I was siting in the garden, a small voice said to me "I AM GOD, LOOK AROUND YOU, I MADE EVERYTHING."

In 1978, I met a Physiotherapist, (at school,) she is a warm and loving person, she was wearing a little cross on her collar. I asked about it, she said "I’m a born again Christian." That was all she said!!! A few months later, my good friend died in a motorbike accident. I began to think about death and life.

18 months later, Rodney (my brother – a Born Again Christian) asked me, if I would like to come to a Crusade, at the Bulawayo City Hall. I said yes!!!! As he put me in the car, I prayed, "O Lord save me tonight." HE DID!!!!!!

 

That was on Friday 14th November 1980.

 

  • A NEW LIFE WITH KING JESUS CHRIST.

  •  

    Whether you are AVERAGE or have a Disability – John Chap: 3 Vs 3. IN REPLY JESUS DECLARED "I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, NO ONE CAN SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD UNLESS HE IS BORN AGAIN.

     

    2 CORINTHIANS Chap. 5 Vs 17. THEREFORE, IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION; THE OLD HAS GONE, THE NEW HAS COME! (N.I.V.)
