YOU NEVER LEAVE ME

Umeahidi ewe Bwana huniachi
(You have promised oh Lord that you never leave me)
Hadi mwisho wa dahari ulisema huniachi
(To the end of ages you said, you will not leave me)
Wewe ni Mungu uliye mwaminifu siku zote
(You always a faithful God)
Mimi ninaiweka Imani yangu kwako Bwana
(I put my faith on you Lord)


Today I just sat down and remembered the faithfulness of the Lord. These are the wings I needed to soar with in this new month.
The year has been something. It is almost coming to an end, two more months and 2017 is gone. Just the other day we were ushering it in and God spoke over our lives for the year. For me I knew it would be an year that would really test my faith and I had to be still and always remember that God is God. Sure as faithful as He is, He never left me.
Nipitiapo maji mengi au moto, huniachi
(Though I walk through streams of water or fire)
Unaijua jina langu ewe Bwana, huniachi
(You know my name Oh Lord, you never leave me)
Unatengeneza njia ata mito kule Jangwani
(You make a way and even rivers in the desert, you never leave me)
Wewe ndiwe alpha na Omega, huniachi
(You are the Alpha and Omega, you never leave me)
This verse reminds me of Psalms 27. The Psalmist must have gone through a great deal of events to write this. I remember there was a time in high school I was facing some really tough allegations concerning something I would have never wanted to be associated with especially being in the Christian union and it really broke my heart. I did not know how to defend myself because that was never me. I just kept crying for God to defend me. That Sunday a lady was invited to minister during our morning devotion and that's the psalm she read. There and then, still locked in the prayer room (because I did not have the strength to join the main congregation) with my prayer partner I knew God was on my case. The day did not end without the people against me coming to ask for forgiveness. That was in fact the day I spoke in tongues for the first time.
Baba hata mama wanaweza kuniacha
(My father and my mother may leave me)
Marafiki nao wanaweza kunigeuka
(My friends may foresake me)
Mara kwa mara maadui wanizunguka
(Every now and then my enemies suround me)
Nitaishi kwa ahadi yako Bwana, huniachi
(I will leave by your word, You will not leave me)
I don't know what testimony you carry so far. I may not know how your life is or how you are doing generally but one thing, those who wait on the Lord, He shall renew their strength.
Psalms 91: 4 "He will cover you with His feathers and under His wings you will find strength. His faithfulness will be your shield."
Yes, your world may turn upside down or it may seem as if you are not making any progress. Maybe the people you trusted to stick close disappointed you or you disappointed yourself by making that wrong choice that you may never take back. His love is unconditional. He is not going to leave you unless you push Him away. Surely nothing can separate us from the love of God (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuhD-sKq4PA).

Photo from youtube.com This post is not for one who got it under control. This post is not for you who thinks you have to do a number of things to get God's attention. This post is not for one who already has a list of this years resolution and is willing to make everything work. This one today is for you who only knows that God is with you and that is all that matters. One who is aware of the new year but still has a junk of the previous years trying to weigh them down.

PEOPLE

We all care. Most of us like to say we do not really care what anyone thinks about us but truth is that deep down we really do. It's just that some of us have slowly been sucked into approval addiction while some have gradually realized that it really shouldn't matter that much so we try not to let others' opinions sway us. All the same, even those of us who claim not to care actually want everyone to believe that we are unmoved by their opinions so really, it's a big deal. 123rf.com They are the best and the worst you've created Loving and hating and opinionated Loners in basements and those congregated Deliver me... Far from the peace, from ashore I was sinking Deep in the ocean of thoughts they were thinking Don't know what  validation I was seeking Deliver me from... I believe there's nothing wrong with caring about opinions. Because sometimes we're able to change our lives' direction for the better because we listened t

REMEMBER

Sometimes things go dark. So dark that life ceases to make sense... Sometimes things go wrong and just when we think they can't get any worse they actually do... Sometimes we get weak...or as we like to say, life happens. This song, I believe, is for those times when life happens. Because those are the times we are prone to forget the truth we very much proclaim to know. Those  are the times we question our faith in God, we question His love for us, we question the very Words we so clearly heard Him speak to us. This song is a reminder to never forget in the darkness what we know to be true in the light. Cheta, Cheta (remember, remember)

OF HONEST PRAYERS...

We've heard it said countless times that when it comes to talking to God, there's no sort of perfect way to it. What matters most is the state of our hearts.  A broken and contrite heart- these, He will not despise. A good number of people say music gets them through pretty much everything. The truth is that music is powerful. However there have been times in my life when nothing made sense. When I say nothing I mean even the songs that would normally be very helpful were simply just nicely arranged words with a melody. I would be in so much turmoil that I’d think of the times when one song or the other lifted my spirit and wonder what changed. Saviour please, take my hand
