How Grounded Are You?

The deeper you advance towards the seas the rougher and tougher the tides become. For you to maneuver this rough waters you need a vessel that is well stable, strong and deep enough to be able to break forth this high tides.

Same thing to salvation. Before setting out into the deep are you sure that you have worked very well on your relationship with God? Have you taught your heart, soul and spirit to totally be dependent on God alone? Will you trust Him enough to be the captain of your life? Trusting that He will do a good job with you? And that regardless of what happens you will still praise Him?

You see He never promised that it wouldn't be tough but He promised you his grace to always see you though those rough times.

Will you continue staying at the shores where you think is safe or will you set off into the deep and totally depend on GOD?

When Someone Else’s Win Feels Like Your Own

Some moments leave you smiling for hours—heart full, spirit light. Yesterday was one of those moments. My partner has been encouraging me to get back to blogging, saying I have a gift for storytelling. Maybe he’s right, because if ever there was a story worth sharing, it’s this one. Lately, I’ve noticed something beautiful—young ladies and gentlemen speaking to me from a place of motherhood. Some even call me Mom. It’s a title I’m slowly embracing, because I feel that, by the grace of God, I might be mentoring them or guiding them in the right direction. It’s such a humbling experience. Mom it is. There’s one young man in particular—someone I’m connected to through leadership. Over time, I’ve come to deeply admire his commitment to God, his hunger for spiritual growth, and the way he quietly lives out his faith. Yesterday, he called and invited me to walk with him through an incredibly personal milestone in his life. My heart almost burst. First, from the honor of him seeing me and cho...

Scandalous Love

"Aki niko na Jameson's hata sija fungua bado. Sijui nikunyue yote ama nisi ikunyue." The words that birthed a friendship. Jameson's. Six years later I have great respect for that particular bottle of Jameson. God works in very mysterious ways. He has a sense of humor too. Did you know God laughs? He will place people strategically because He is omniscient and omnipotent. He knows what we don't know and see's what we can't see. At times I imagine of how God works behind the scenes on our behalf. Fighting battles that we have no idea about. Creating divine connections. Placing us in strategic positions. The day she gave her life to Christ. A few days after the Jameson's incident. Never had I encountered a more determined person. She meant it. Life had given her a few blows. She had done all that there was to be done. But still, nothing worked. The only thing she hadn't tried was God. She had approached me for advice. I offered her God instead. ...

Believers But Still Unequally Yoked

When finding a mate, we are often told to look for someone within the church community. The basis given for such advice is the verse, “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers” (2 Corinthians 6:14). For those of us who don’t know what being “yoked” means. A yoke is what joins two oxen who are meant to carry a cart together. If one ox is pulling in one direction a lot more than the other, then the oxen will not be carrying the cart well. They may end up wanting to move in different directions. This verse serves as the foundation for Christian marriages. A christian should marry another christian. Otherwise, you will end up with someone with a different belief and moral system. Someone who doesn’t know God and will lead you away from Him. However what most of us as believers also don't understand is that being in an “equally yoked” relationship isn’t about the convenience of going for church service together, or being able to sing the same songs, minister in church or ...
