Hi guys, I would like to share something with you, some history from my country. As I am a South African, I am also an Afrikaner, my home language is Afrikaans.

+- 170 years ago God saved my family by saving the Voortrekkers in a battle, the battle of blood river on this day, the 16th December.

This day was always comemerated as the day of the Covenant, as these men and woman made a vow to God if He delivered them from the battle, they would always remember that day. Times have changed, but I will always remember today and tell my friends about it, even if they are half way accross the world.

God bless you, here's the link to read more about it
