I have an exclusive sneak peek inside for you today of this biography of an amazing, inspirational young woman. You can read more excerpts as you follow the tour.

'Flowers she wore on her feet'.

This is the story of an extraordinary girl and young woman with a brilliant mind, a heart of gold, and who is gone too soon. Neema was a priceless gift to us. Neema was an extraordinary young woman, with joy and wisdom, and remarkably profound and greater understanding about herself and others. She taught us everything worth knowing about life and love, everything about what it means to be a best friend. Neema, outlook for future is something about this book. Neema would have wanted the world to hear the voice of children and young people, girls and young people in particularly young women around the world, their walking sound when they walk wearing their beautiful flowers on their feet. Meaning that those girls and young women around the world have worked hard the same way Neema did, searching for their favorite flowers and they were able to see them and finally finding their ways to broadcast them, and therefore, finding their unique values. This is what Neema would have wanted the world to hear from children and young people saying that we go out and we're asking for help and support, they will wear flower on their feet because they worked hard to get see them and therefore they can now see themselves, and therefore , the walk by itself is a voice and a cry for help and they are saying help us because we would like to contribute to the world and we're read and we know what we love and what we want to do and what we're loving doing and we just want opportunities to let us equip with knowledge and skills then we will all be ready and set to contribute to the world we live in our own unique way happily.

Read an exclusive excerpt:
It was amazing to watch our little girl Neema growing up to become a young confident person and young woman. Neema loved nature and everything around nature since the time she was able to understand what was going around her. We saw this and we saw what was happening to our little girl and stood by her and supported and guided her properly. We’re thrilled as we write this book and share our parenting experience, our parenting story, including our motherhood and our fatherhood, and we’re happy to say that it’s awesome to say that we are proud about our daughter and we continue to be proud of her because she grew up to become the person we dreamed about. What kind of person would she have been, and what kind of a woman would she have been to this world during her short lifetime? One thing we’re sure to talk about is that we watched and observed Neema many times, and we saw her showing her love for nature. She did that at all levels of her life circle, when she was at home and/or playing with other children around the house, when she was at school and when she was out and about enjoying other activities.

We liked and enjoyed everything, and, more important to us as parents, is that we enjoyed the way Neema connected herself with not only her own parents and other human beings on the earth, including her own young brother Michael, but the way she connected herself with nature. We continue to share with the world that it is more important to us to open up about these beautiful memories. More important to us is that the memories about our beautiful young daughter Neema as well as beautiful parenting memories are the reason that we would like to tell this to the world. Neema was an educated person and a young woman, who would go out and educate other children about her knowledge of everything, especially her love for nature. She would do that when playing with her friends and other children. She was also happy to take the lead in any activity she was involved with, and asked others to follow her, and she did that willingly and with great enthusiasm, and she would then tell or show her parents directly, without fear. For example, when she was around the house she would volunteer to water the plants in our house garden.

Neema would talk about her experience, about her love of nature when she was busy watering the plants until the job was done. She would now and then tell her parents that she was going to tell other children and friends as well about what she had experienced at home and what she was excited about. When asked what she was going to tell them, Neema would just say, “I watered the plants today in my parents’ house garden and enjoyed doing it because I love those plants and flowers. I would also tell them that I watched television and enjoyed those cartoons, human beings and animals playing in a beautiful garden.”

'Andrew Murray: Destined to Win' by Olea Nel $0.99 sale!



Andrew Murray Destined to Win 

A true story of battles, blessings, betrayal, and breakthrough

Twenty-two year old Andrew Murray has just completed his first year of ministry to over 20,000 Boers beyond the borders of the Cape. With new-found confidence, he soon finds himself acting in a statesman-like capacity on behalf of both Boer and Brit. But with every victory gained, he finds himself not only showered with accolades and blessings, but also having to battle outbreaks of self and pride that he is unable to conquer.

After a heartbreaking betrayal, he realizes that he is in need of a wife—someone who is able to partner with him in the ministry. But where to find such a girl? And when found, will his bloated ego and self-focus get in the way of winning her hand?

Although told in fictional form, this is a factual account of Andrew Murray’s life during the turbulent years of 1850 to 1856. The story is set in the wilds of Africa beyond the Orange and Vaal Rivers, then moves to England and Europe, before returning to the Cape. It is sure to appeal to lovers of Historical Fiction, South African History, and those interested in the lives of giants of the faith.

LEARN of the battles fought and lost against the Basuto chief Moshesh.

OBSERVE the brinkmanship at the Sand River Convention, where independence was granted to the Transvaal.

FOLLOW Andrew Murray to England, where he preaches at Surrey Chapel.
