Last week France was on a spotlight of hatred and terror as extremists callously murdered 17 innocent people. Yet, at the same time some of us witnessed love – the greatest force that’s capable of melting even the hardest of hearts – at her very best. As the world ached in horror on the 9thContinue reading “EVEN TERRORISTS NEED LOVE”

VALUE VS VALUABLES
Rick Warren says, “Don’t confuse your self-worth with your net worth. Your value is not determined by your valuables.” How true this is. Our value isn’t tied to things. Our discount is in that which can neither depreciate nor can it be lost – the love of God. Your creator loved you before bringing youContinue reading “VALUE VS VALUABLES”
HESABU BARAKA ZAKO
Juzi juzi nilikuwa napita mtaani nikakutana na wapendwa hawa wakiwa wanapumzika. Kusema ukweli ndugu zetu hawa hapa ndio ‘nyumbani’ kwao – hawana mahali pengine pa kuishi. Baada ya kuwaamsha na kuwasalimia kwa kifupi (sikutaka kuendelea wapotezea muda wao wa mapumziko) niliwapatia salamu zao za upendo kutoka kwa Muumba wao (ambaye pia ni Baba yetu sote!).Continue reading “HESABU BARAKA ZAKO”
A 3D PERSPECTIVE
Most movie lovers agree that watching a 3D film is more thrilling than watching the same film in 2D. But to appreciate the thrill of a 3D movie, one must put on 3D stereoscopic glasses. “A 3D film viewed without glasses, as one movie critic put it, “is a very strange sight and may appearContinue reading “A 3D PERSPECTIVE”
Priceless Nevertheless
A painting by Pablo Picasso recently set a new world record for the most expensive artwork to be sold at auction after selling for $179m (£115m) in New York. It has been said beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I don’t know about you, but my eyes certainly can’t see a bit ofContinue reading “Priceless Nevertheless”
We all need grace
Church’s approval rating has never been this low. I believe one of the primary reasons for this is that many (especially non-believers) perceive the Church as a clan of cynic pretenders. People hate to see religious individuals living in denial – publicly professing to be flawless but secretly struggling more or less like everybody else. Continue reading “We all need grace”
The Even-If-Believers
Nebuchadnezzar, one of the most powerful Kings of the day, built a giant gold statue and ordered every one to fall to their knees and worship it. Anyone who would not kneel and worship was to be thrown immediately into a roaring furnace. Everyone—every race, color, and creed—fell to their knees and worshiped the goldContinue reading “The Even-If-Believers”
Falling In Love With God
There are two critical moments in our human life, the moment God fell in love with us and the moment we finally fell in love with God. God brought us into existence because He loved us. Scriptures say that God fell in love with us even before we were conceived. But, as we all know,Continue reading “Falling In Love With God”
Even Love Hurts
The truth is that even love hurts. But the difference is clear; evil hurts to kill but love hurts to heal, so I’ll always trust my loving God even when it hurts.
Flame of Love
“I can master it”, said the Ax. His blows fell heavy on the hard, strong steel. But each blow only made his edge more blunt until he ceased to strike. “Leave it to me”, said the Saw. With his relentless teeth, he worked back & forth. But to his dismay, all of his teeth wereContinue reading “Flame of Love”
