Overview

"Whispering Hope is a spiritual and motivational book written to help those who, like Themba Mafico's grueling life's journey, feel hopelessly hemmed in abject poverty. Heeding the small, still voice, as its subtitle alludes, demonstrates by many examples how one can overcome poverty, inordinate crises, innumerable political and racial impediments. Inspired by Elijah's sojourn to the mountain of God where he was invigorated by a small, still voice, the book teaches the importance of periodically withdrawing from the crowd and noises. Mafico's life demonstrates that in stillness one comes to know God, and in waiting that he reinvigorates and mounts up, like an eagle, to the pinnacle of life. This book narrates a triumphant journey against all odds spurred by listening to one's inner small still voice that continuously sounds words of encouragement, advice, and good cheer to keep hope alive. Without hope, a person in crisis encounters God's silence and threatening noises and a myriad of adversarial situations. But in stillness and quietude, one hears God's still, small voice whispering encores of hope. The hullabaloo, melee, and cacophony submerge God's voice, plunging a sufferer into a hopeless void. The book is replete with anecdotes, stories, and experiences that teach tenacity, courage, perseverance, long-suffering, endurance, staying the course, and setting one's face unflinchingly like flint inching toward the prize. Moreover, Mafico's story subtly teaches how reliance on the biblical teaching, parental advice and instructions, and hard work lead to a wholesome life filled with confidence and unstinting hope. When facing a unique and difficult situation, a still, small voice is heard saying, ""This, too, shall pass."" By compelling examples, Mafico has demonstrated the spiritual and mental strength derived from living a disciplined lifestyle filled with hope."
