The Perspective of Sickness by J.C. Ryle

Sickness helps to remind men of death. Most live as if they were never going to die. They follow business, or pleasure, or politics, or science, as if earth was their eternal home.

They plan and scheme for the future, like the rich fool in the parable, as if they had a long lease of life, and were not, tenants at will. A heavy illness sometimes goes far to dispel these delusions. It awakens men from their day-dreams, and reminds them they have to die as well as to live. Now this I say emphatically is a mighty good.

“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen — not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.” - C.S. Lewis

This so real. Many African Pastors an Christians in general don’t confess to this. The time for‘Superman’ Pastor is gone. Christian gets depressed. Pastors do as well. De-stigmatize depression. It’s not a daemon. Let’s get real

Ever felt like the lights in your world have began to dim?

Do you wake up every morning asking “Oh my soul, why are you so discouraged?”
You are burnt out - #FriedAndFrazzled.

To go study in UK, a student must do compulsory TB Test at IOM Kenya for Kshs. 19,000/= per test. The TB test takes less than thirty seconds! Students going to IOM Kenya stand in a queue of upto five hours due to the hundreds if not thousands of students tested each day. IOM Kenya must be making over Kshs. 19,000,000/= per day!!! NOTE that IOM is a UN Agency & TB testing in Kenya is free. I don’t know if @MOH_Kenya or our Health Minister @Nakhumicha_S or the @UKinKenya know of this. Is it fair? Is it right? Is GoK benefitting from the money collected?

@DonaldBKipkorir Thanks for raising the matter. I went through this process with my family and it was tedious and expensive. It’s pure exploitation

If we ever develop as a people and a country, we will need to reach a level where we are this honest. We tell the truth as it is; black and white. The greatest legacy that we can leave behind for generations to come is honesty and undillutable integrity.

@AmakanjiThomas @StateHouseKenya This’s what we have been saying all along. I hope the President is serious. Kenyans have lost faith in government because of the way they do business, in the past and now. You make promises but you undo them as you benefit yourselves and families and friends.

If my sins are cast behind His back, how can Satan ever get at them again? I will defy any fiend from hell to find them. Satan can torment me with them no more.
