It's Hard being a Christian.

It's another Saturday, it is another Sabbath for the Seventh Adventists.
As I sit to think and reflect how my week went by, I keep stumbling upon somethings that i have struggled with throughout this week, and I can't help but think of how it is hard being Me. And generally how harder it is being a Christian.
Being a Christian means being an ambassador of Christ here on earth, walking like Christ and living like him. It's a big name, big responsibility than we think at times.
You see, we go to church, we read the Bible and even preach out there to people to have Faith in God, to trust God n etc. But the real question is, do we have that strong Faith we preach?, do we walk that talk we talk? Especially when you are struggling or going through some hard times?
Everyone can answer to themselves, but in my own opinion it is always easier said than done, though it can be done.
And so yes, it is very hard to Trust in God when you are going through pain, misery or anything unpleasant because sometimes it seems as if it is too much or nothing is improving. We sometimes go to.an extent of asking "God where are you? God why?". Because at times it's hard to understand how you can try do all things right yet you go through things you feel you don't deserve(with your goodness)
But
Even though you might feel that way, don't give up, hold on and keep doing the good things you are doing. It will definitely end well (remember no situation is permanent), whatever you are going through will come to an end with more blessings. I believe in the "God can not take something away from you without replacing it with a better one. So sometimes when you are in a struggle something bigger and nice is on your way.
So be human, doubt if you can but don't stay in doubt for a long time, keep in mind too that nothing works under doubt,  but in Faith mountains can be moved.

With love

NEW YEAR, NEW MIND

Its 2018. Am grateful to God for allowing me and my family, friends to see this year. 2017, was quite a long, challenging year for me, my mind was a battlefield that hosted the many wars that were in me, i felt helpless most of the time and it was as if everything was not working out. But at the end of the year, i was constantly telling myself that i needed to step in 2018 with a changed mind, changed attitude towards everything that has been battling in my mind, changed view of how i see life, changed mind on how i see myself and life generally. I just wanted to take control of my mind, and every situation that i can possibly control and the hardest i leave them to God. Now a new year, does not necessary make everything new, nor does the movement of the clock produce the newness of life , it is the movement in your mind that gives newness to life. Our biggest enemy we have in our lives is 'ourselves', in what we think, in what we have in our minds, and unless we take

The" Pambana na Hali yako "

Pambana na hali yako is one of the swahili phrase trending in Tanzania. In English one would translate it as " cope with your situation" but in my own translation i would  say "be brave to fight your life battles'' i am one among the people that have been using it so much, and just recently i watched a certain comic video by one of the famous Tanzanian comedian called "Mpoki"' . It made me sit down and  think for the first time, what does "pambana na hali yako" really means to an individual?to me? Well i got five thoughtful things It means that one must be willing to endure, persist and solve the puzzles that life gives him/her, one must manage everything that life throws at them. One must stay strong for him/her self and for the people that depend on him/her given any hardship, challenge.  One must be hopeful as long as s/he is still breathing. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how long it takes.

The Meaning behind Emojis

i love using emojis when chatting. sometimes you dont have to type how you feel or want to express in words an emoji can do that for you. i like texting more than speaking, because i can express myself well in writting than when i speak. So most of us use emojis, but we sometimes wrongfully use their interpretations to what they actually mean. So i took the trouble to find out the meaning of every emoji the common ones and i will be sharing them here with you so that you can be conscious enough not to mix and mess up conversations.
