ARE YOU A RESPONSIBLE STEWARD?


Happy new year!
Im sure we are all happy of the fact that the lord has allowed us see yet another year!Great is thy faithfulness oh Lord.As the year unveils,many of us have set our resolutions whilst others have a new 'to do list'whether on a monthly or weekly basis.All said and done.did you know that you are a steward?Yes a steward!

A steward is simply a person entitled to manage another persons property.Psalm 24 ;1-2 states very clearly that the earth is the Lord's and everything in it,the world and all who live in it.
You and I belong to the lord.We donot belong to ourselves(1st cor 6;19).We are all accountable to God.

Everything that we have is not ours,we are only stewards.That child is not yours,they belong to God.As a steward,given the responsibility of nurturing that child,are you taking full responsibility?what service are you offering?are you helping them grow in the ways of the lord?if the master was to rate you,could you manage attaining over 52%????

As a businessperson,are you using the right measures in carrying out that business?(Prov 11;1)Are you genuine in that business working as unto the lord and not as to man!Well im sure you will take keen consideration about that.

There is something that has been annoying me and quite sure you will concur with my sentiments.Ever seen someone in a matatu peel a banana,greedily take it then shamelessly throws off the banana peel off the window and as if nothing has happened,opens a soda,swallows it within seconds  again throws off the can!!!!!!!!!!This act leaves me wondering,whats really running in someones mind!When will people know that we ARE STEWARDS OF GODS ENVIRONMENT!
Before you tell me that city county staff are employed to do that work,(cleaning)think of it this way,aint that person e also entitled to their own human dignity????just the way  you cant work in a desk that is dusty and full of unclean cups and plates,our fellow kenyans also need a conducive environment in carrying out their duties.

What if all of us took our snacks in the matatu and safely place the leftovers and waste  in our bags till we alight and dispose them properly in the designated bins? How about you leaving the sink clean even if your neighbour will still wash their dishes?what if we left the washrooms better than we found them?Suppose we were kind enough to recycle the supermarket paperbags instead of throwing them allover?How would Kenya be if we all respected and heed to"usikojoe hapa'signs irrespective of how pressed we are???

Dear ones,this will start with you and me trying our best to be good and responsible stewards.We are all stewards in taking care of Kenya and thus accountable to God who has found it worth for us to be in Kenya(Acts 17;27).Im shocked that despite the big signage'HELP US KEEP NAIROBI CLEAN'...majority of us still litter .Kenya is a beautiful country and it will be even better if we all owned up to be good stewards.

Squeeze this point in your resolutions,that in 2017,il be a responsible steward not only to my friends and relatives but to my mother land as well.This means that anytime you fail,you will be guilty thus keeping you on check to avoid repeating the err next time.


Happy reading!

 Life is a journey;truly it is.Its been long since we met along these streets.Im sure majority of you wondered what happened?Many raised concerns but i must say i truly appreciate your concerns,feedback and the many of you who pushed me to come back.Well lets thank God who has continually watched over each one of us as well as given us the grace to carry on through life amidst Covid 19.We all have reasons to appreciate having being allowed through the gates of 2021.Aint God gracious? It could have been better;others feel,its even worse some admit while others wonder why still continue with the agony to this far.Well,the author of life is God and as one man of God said,as long as there is a day called tomorrow,never give up.Joel Osteen keeps on encouraging us that we are closer to our destinies today more than we were yesterday.Theres hope,irrespective of the pain. You could be feeling like you are  moving round kardesh barnea,without any hope or any promise of ever finding lig...

It is Here My Lord

I wake  up in the middle of the night,the silence,the calmness and the awesome feeling one gets when everything is cool.A verse keeps on  coming to my mind now and then,i cant trace where it is excatly in the bible but atleast im conversant with it.No bundles to google,i cant call a friend whom i know is soo good in memorising bible verses and a gain,who calls people at  one AM for such an issue?unless its really important,an emergency we say. 2017 has been a great year.Yes,great is ambiguous.its had all sorts of issues from good to bad,moments of celebration as well as mourning,days of total silence as well as days when you talk,talk,and before you exhaust ur saliva,sleep catches up with you.Oh an year whereby politics have left quite a number of us mouths wide open,others didnt want to even watch news because really,at some point it didnt make sense.A year where prophecies were given including some fake ones which you didnt need an interpreter to tell you that clea...

Its exactly five days to the awaited  Valentines day!A day when most people if not all of us make merry,enjoy friendship as well as cement their love to their lovers through a gift, a night out and many activities that lovers  engage in.Do not be amused when you find ladies in red cute dresses wheres men get a touch of red either in ties,t shirts or pocket square.Many people cherish this day!im sure there so many memories you have,  attached to this day whether good or bad.Id say that if its really a big day for you,go forth and rejoice!enjoy every second of that day..Maximize every opportunity that comes with valentines day. Theres nothing wrong with having fun and making merry.The lord himself urges us to be ware of times and seasons and respond effectively in prov 11;25,the bible clearly records that in good times we rejoice while in bad times,we consider; While contemplating on the meaning of love in  this month of love,my mind cant let go of a group of peop...
