“At Hennie’s home in Worcester, in true South Africa style, we braaied choppies, Boerewors, chicken, and braaibroodtjies along with a few different types of salads and dessert, which included Peppermint Tart with vanilla ice-cream.

My day started when I learned that my hart se punt is an expression to reaffirm exactly how much we love something or someone. My day ended by learning that love is a measurement of how much our heart can hold. The type of love that makes you feel propvol because the area is completely filled up.

And that’s the type of love that helps us to understand expressions of love that we have never considered before since love gives us the confidence to understand that love can’t be contained into little bottles or containers of security. Love is an ever-flowing emotion much like a running river that inspires us as it sweeps across our lives, and it covers everything with its inspiration simply called my hart se punt.

A point that reminds us that we’re not that special, love is our universal gift.

A point that always pulls us toward our heart’s True North, even when can’t initially see the blessing that is hiding past the weight of the cross.

An anchor of truth that’s freeing, as it pulls us toward our life’s highest purpose to be made whole, not perfect, through love’s grace that is simply called...

Die Punt, The Point.”
― hlbalcomb

“Oor my eerste boek, Confessions oor kerkwees, het ’n dominee in die Kaap gesê: “Dit lees lekker op die toilet.” My gebed is dat dit ook so sal wees met hierdie boek.”
