New Dimensions

  This was a memorable act of kindness on the part of a community-conscious company. With loadshedding affecting our economy it’s nice to remember a company like SA Platforms that offered to solve a power outage problem in the Risiville/Three Rivers East & Property Community in the past. A HUGE BIG Thanks to https://www.facebook.com/SAPlatforms/ for sponsoring the cherry picker for BXC to use in our Ward .... We applaud SA Platforms for reaching out and helping. Since those days the power outage problems have increased. I hope it hasn’t been too bad for that community lately. But in spite of these adverse circumstances the people managing SA Platforms have still continued to offer the incredible service that they have always given to companies needing cherry pickers/lifting platforms. In a competitive market they have managed to keep going because they are good at what they are doing. Remember, if you want to do work at height where a cherry picker is necessary, you can contact...

  Pool Nets for Your Protection This article is about the fear of water, swimming pool safety, and pool nets which are vital for pool protection. When I was in high school in Cape Town, I used to spend some time riding my bicycle in our neighbourhood once my homework was done. It was the first time in my life that I owned a bicycle. During one of those times, I came across a pretty girl not too far from my home. I decided I would like to try and get to know her. Whenever I rode after that I went past her house but never saw her again. Sometime after that my friend Brian told me the sad news. Apparently, she had drowned in a public swimming pool full of people. Having grown up I got to know someone who has a fear for water. The reason was that her parents had put that fear in her from a very young age. As a result, she developed a tremendous mental blockage about water. To this day she can’t swim. There are people of all ages that unable to swim and can’t go near a swimming ...

 When You Need to Work at Height It starts with an idea. A big project. The idea is a solution to a need. The need could be new headquarters for a company. When I drive towards the R24 freeway from my home I notice huge complexes that have been erected recently where there used to be empty spaces next to the highway. Some of them are warehouses and some factories. Nevertheless, all required roofs and some other structures or fittings much higher than ground level.  In cases like these you can find the right solution when you search online and come across a leading lifting platform company like the one I found. They had the following to say:  “So, you need to work at height, but you need a platform or something to work on because it is out of reach. The usual or obvious choice that comes to mind is to build a scaffold as your working platform.   To hire scaffolding can be quite costly but it comes with limitations and can be expensive and time-consuming to put in...

  About My Blog Called New Dimensions I kicked off my first Blogger post on 25 February 2013 with " Is your switchgear getting old? " This was, of course, not my first blog post ever and it was very short, but it was a start. One of my first blog posts was on a platform called Typepad . I don't know why I fancied Typepad at the time. I wrote about ideas being seeds . “Ideas are like seeds that soar across the highways of time seeking the right landing place - they enter by way of silence and have the ability to change your life. Gently they alight on receptive minds and spread their influence in fertile soil. The right attitude causes them to bloom resulting in an aha moment. Combined with imagination infinite possibilities result. Constant meditation adds nourishment to the process causing expansion and assimilation. There are huge benefits to the seeking soul which attracts great ideas like a magnet. If, however, these precious seeds are neglected, they soon take flight...

  Extract from my book on our Lesotho trip. When I think about how we were able to go from village to village, community to community to minister and always meet up with a lot of people, then I now realize that Seth must have notified everyone in advance of our plans (his plans). No telephones or cell phones around those days so he must have journeyed all over the place in advance to organize everything. That was a masterpiece all on its own those days. The places we ministered at were spread out all over the countryside and involved a lot of hiking across rough terrain. Seth did it all so that us city folks could just pitch up and minister without a hitch. Our first ministry our was around the vicinity of our base camp which was quite hilly - up and down the mountain side - looking for shepherd boys and locals to minister to. Our leader, Pastor Mark carried a loud hailer. He would speak into it and his voice was carried great distances to people on the hills. Then we would walk or...
