Patrice Lumumba, the first Prime Minister of the Congo 🇨🇩 who was executêd in a firing squad and his body was dissolved in sulfuric acid, by Belgium/USA allies because he tried to protect his country’s minerals.
Shortly before exêcution, His last words were:
“Neither brutality, cruelty or torture will ever bring me to ask for mercy, for I prefer to dié with my head held high, unshakable faith and the greatest confidence in the destiny of my country rather than live in slävery and contempt for sacred principles.”
In Memory of Patrice Lumumba 🙌🏾🤲🏾❤️...He swore that this world would see what the "free" black man could achieve. Long live the dream of a prosperous unified Africa 🌍
Good morning! ☀️
10,000 reasons for your heart to sing.. bless the Lord oh my soul.. 🎶
Thank you Dear Lord, My King.. that the things of the earth grow dim as I set my mind on You first thing today, the God of my salvation.
I once was lost, but now am found.. was blind but now I see. 🎶
Thankful for the songs hidden in my heart that come to mind as I dwell upon Him. And it’s all only because of Him. 🥹
Praying today He may open the eyes of the hearts of the lost.. and draw them to Himself so that they too can know Him, love Him, & live for Him. That He would bring the lost low & let them learn from Him.. bc He is lowly, tender, & meek. His yoke is light & His burden, easy. In Him, there’s a fullness of joy. In Him, there’s rest for our spirit that nothing in this world can bring.
There’s no greater love or life in this world than with Him & with Him as first & most supreme love of our life. There is no greater freedom either, than to be in Him. God - You are just so good! Marvelous in all of Your ways.
Thank You Father, Son, & Spirit.. for the work that You have done. Only You can bring dry bones to life, & make us into new creations. Thank you that we get to feel the weight of sin. I remember when life was hard without you, but yet I never felt the weight of my sin either. Ephesians 2.
I am so thankful You are the God Who saves & all our ways are known to You, Who alone can forgive, heal, & bind up all our wounds when we do feel them heavily upon us now. Isaiah 55:8-9

Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Romans 10:13
