GLA missionaries at the beach after the zoo and tour . 60% had never been to a zoo and one of them came to me and thanked God that finally she visited a zoo and felt like a tourist. after breakfast at banana village ,,,, I have always longed to take a holiday in a country of my choice and maybe an island of my choice, well that might happen in the near future, but as I have seen years come by God has given me a chance to be in places and relax and enjoy and rest and reflect. I look at our regular missionaries who we send to very remote places in Uganda where they mostly live in huts and have no electricity no mobile network and yeah no complains. As I did member care over months I have listened to them tired and worn out  and crying out for a break. I prayed and God put in me a burden to raise money to refresh the missionaries ..Those who gave to this course may the Lord bless you ... below are some captions for the retreat. doing bible study in the mor...

SURVIVED ALONE IN A 14 SITTER CAR ACCIDENT . 5 YEARS NOW I STILL COUNT HIS FAITHFULNESS AND I WILL NOT FORGET. LETS PRAISE JEHOVA. I will not forget the faithfulness of the Lord. I will narrate this to generations and generations and I will praise him for He is mighty to save. Why do I say that? Its now 5year this month now  since this happened. I travelled from Uganda where I live to Kenya to visit my parents and I had a safe trip and indeed we had a reunion and after 4 days of fellowship with my family I planned to return. On my way as always I visited a couple friend who after a long chat I asked them to pray for my trip since I was leaving. for one reason or the other after entering a Taxi/ Matatu (14 Sitter) I found myself saying Psalms 34:20 He preserves all his bones; not one of them shall be  broken. weather out of context or not I only remember repeating that. There was only 1 seat left behind and since I was in a hurry I accepted to sit behi...

TREASURE YOUR FRIENDS Its a very fast world we are living in and in this era and generation a lot of us have no time for others, not even time to invest in other people. We are busy with our jobs, families, school as we take extra courses, church meetings name them.. these are all great things and worth investing in. But human beings cannot operate like robots, you got to have people around you who you care for and care for you. Keep a list of friends that you need to check on often. Do not wait until you have a problem and you call them, ask God to help you to be in habit to cultivate friendships. some ways I have found helpful in cultivating love for friends. I struggle lots in this but I trust God as well. 1. have people that you pray for now and then.. 2. call to just say hi, people feel special when they are given some attention. 3.listen to them when they speak so you can have things to follow up on,, sick person, an issue which you can follow up later, 4.che...

 Sing with me ".Oh, bless me now, my savior, I come to thee." What comes to your mind when you hear Blessings? Have you ever found yourself asking God to bless you? Or have you ever felt too blessed? The word blessed is used concerning wealth, health, and physical things, and there seems to a new understanding of blessing as the good things we receive from God. Well, therefore, such blessings are on everyone believing and non-believing. Math 5: 45 God’s intention and desire to bless humanity is a central focus of his covenant relationships. Throughout the Bible, the blessings of God are; one, a public declaration of a favored status with God and, second, endowed power to prosper and succeed. To be blessed is to be granted special favor by God with resulting joy and prosperity. The new testament lays an emphasis on spiritual than material Eph 1:3. God’s blessings are not limited to material things; these are part of it; what’s the blessing in God's hear...

WHAT STORY WILL YOU TELL Oh my it’s been a full month full of very exciting new things and adventures. This morning I was reading my bible and psalms 121 spoke into my life, and I would like to pray it over you as you read this. As you lift up your eyes may you continue learning that your help comes from the Lord alone, the maker of heaven and earth? He will not let you foot slip he who watches over you will not slumber, indeed he who watches over Israel will neither slumber or sleep. May the Lord watch over you and be your shade at your right hand. The sun will not harm you by day or the moon by night. The lord will keep you from all harm; he will watch over your life, he will watch over your coming and going both now and forever. Christmas cantata Our kids got an opportunity to sing at the Watoto church Christmas Cantata 2015 and though long practice they enjoyed singing and dancing, The highlight was that our friends who are our neighbors  and Mu...

MOTHERHOOD AT STAKE Its been four years now since I got my first baby and as He celebrates his 4 years and my second born celebrates 2 years I have been thinking lots recently about being a mother   and I am glad my kids are still young so I can adjust any ways I feel I am not doing a good job. Good job??? Well I recently read an article from someone who was saying how she has memories of her prayerful mum who would d pray for them every day, and she modeled prayer. And she was saying what that has meant for her.   Its very easy to start thinking of your mum and start analyzing what she did and how she did it, but before then pause.. ARE U A MOTHER or almost a mother? Or maybe the question is WILL YOU EVER BE MOTHER. It’s a real gift and I pray that you get it, the gift of motherhood. I keep Thinking about 30 years from today what will be my kids be saying about my influence in their lives.   It’s very scaring to think this way since I know I have a huge respon...
