Die appel val nie ver van die boom af nie . . . Die raadslid en burgemeesterskomiteelid van die Overstrand-munisipaliteit, Ronald Nutt, volg nie net in sy pa, Robert, se voetspore om in die bediening te wees nie, maar sy pa is ook sy held en die een na wie hy opkyk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMy pa is my held. Hy lei deur voorbeeld en staan vas op die beginsels wat in die Bybel vasgel\u00ea is. Sy moeilike grootword\u00adjare onder Apartheid het baie letsels gelaat, maar deur vergifnis uit te spreek, het dit hom suksesvol deur alles gelei. My pa is ons rots en net een wonderlike mens.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Nutts het nie net diep spore in Mount Pleasant getrap nie, maar ook in Hermanus. Robert kom van Upington en het in 1970 na Hermanus verhuis, waar hy die liefde van sy lewe, Daphne, ontmoet het. Drie seuns is uit die huwelik gebore, en sewe kleinkinders het die grootouers se harte volgemaak. \u201cOns almal staan in die bediening, en dit is belangrik vir ons om Jesus Christus se liefde uit te straal. As die ooms, tantes, niggies en neefs almal op een plek is, moet jy behoorlik kophou, want ons eet, praat en lag tegelykertyd,\u201d vertel hy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vandat Ronald kan onthou, is sy pa by die kerk (Apostoliese bediening) se leierskap betrokke. \u201cHy het sy liefde vir die Here en sy liefde vir sy bediening s\u00f3 sterk uitgebeeld dat ek nie \u2019n keuse gehad het as om hom te volg nie. Ek en my broers, Robert en Edgar, sowel as my ma en skoonsusters is almal in die bedie\u00adning,\u201d vertel hy. \u201cDis voorwaar \u2019n se\u00ebn.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ronald het baie by sy pa geleer en volgens hom is van die beste raad wat sy pa hom al gegee het, om nederig te bly en net homself te wees. \u201cWees net jouself en luister na die stem van die Here wanneer Hy met jou praat. My pa hou nie van hoogmoedigheid nie, en dit is een van die redes waarom so baie mense hom \u2018hul pastoor\u2019 noem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Robert en Ronald is deur prof. Jacob Prins van die organisasie Community Skills Development & Bible Centre vir eredoktorsgrade in Goddelikheid van die geakkrediteerde organisasie All Nations Bible Institue & Project benoem. \u201cMy pa is benoem vir sy jare lange geestelike en Christelike diens (48 jaar) aan die gemeenskappe in die Overstrand, Overberg en die Wes- en Noord-Kaap. Van die 48 jaar was hy 40 jaar in \u2019n leierskapposisie en geestelike oorsiener van verskeie kerke en streke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVerder is hy ook benoem vir die persoonlike rol wat hy in die lewe van mense in die gemeenskappe gespeel het. Hy is \u2019n merk\u00adwaardige rolmodel en lewensafrigter wat di\u00e9 erkenning verdien,\u201d vertel Ronald trots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ronald is benoem vir sy geestelike werk in die Overstrand, Overberg en Wes-Kaap \u2013 veral sy evangelisasiewerk en musikale jeugbediening wat hy begin het toe hy maar net 15 jaar oud was. Nou, 32 jaar later, is hy steeds by die bediening betrokke. Die gemeenskapswerk wat hy in die omgewing doen, het ook sy benoe\u00adming be\u00efnvloed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit is \u2019n groot prestasie wat ons te beurt geval het, maar alle eer aan die Hemelse Vader vir dit wat Hy in ons lewe doen,\u201d sluit Ronald af. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
