CiscasquaproSince the coronavirus pandemic, the digital learning has been the way to go. Learners have been taking their classes online. It hasn’t been easy and there are many challenges that come with it. Sometimes they need a break from the screen to other activities which develop them too.

Can you believe it? If not then you have to. A lady who owns a church, she is the pastor of that church and she speaks out loudly saying she is a lesbian and she likes it.
The lady who comes from Machakos county was interviewed in one of local TV station together with other pastors who were opposing her decision of being a lesbian.
I don’t want to make conclusion whether this is right or wrong. After reading this you will be in a better position to make yours.
The lady said that all through her life, she was attracted by the same gender(female). She narrates that her 20 year marriage had not been easy because he never loved her husband.
Being a pastor, she could tell the husband that they were going to seminars for days with her woman friend. The husband was okay with, after all, her company was a female and more so, they were attending church duties.
Little did it cross the mind of the husband that the woman was the pastor’s sex partner! This continued until the man died after staying with him for 20 years.
His death gave her a better chance where she explored her urge to the maximum.
The lady has daughters and when she was asked whether they knew about it, this is what she said ” My daughters know it and they are comfortable with it.” The interviewer asked, ” What about the congregation, don’t they doubt your faith?” “Of course not, I have a good number who come to my church. They know I am lesbian because I don’t hide it. This has never been a threat to my ministry,” she replied.

Sometimes we go through so much that we doubt the manifestation of God’s power in our lives. I have good news for you today. No matter what you are going through, God will come to your rescue. Just hang on, the morning is coming…and all will be over!
God is our shelter and strength, always ready to help in time of trouble. So we will not be afraid, even if the earth is shaken and the mountains fall into the ocean depths; even if the seas roar and rage, and the hills are shaken by violence.
There is a river that brings joy to the city of God, to the sacred house of the most high. God is in that city, and it will never be destroyed; at early dawn He will come to its aid.
Nations are terrified, kingdoms are shaken; God thunders, and the earth dissolves.
The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge…. Psalms 46: 1-7
If you can read this, thank Lord that He has spared you from the coronavirus pandemic…. Enjoy your Jamhuri Day as you try to stay safe.
It is festive season when we want to try most of the recipes. To make most of our home bakings tasty, we do add eggs. But the question is, are they good for pregnant women?
There is one community that didn’t allow their pregnant women to enjoy eating eggs when pregnant. It was a taboo which called for heavy punishment. Why was this the case?
Mostly, in african tradition, most rules were put to protect the people from the problems. There was no explanation to the taboos as they were called. It was a must do it or get punished.
Later, people came to realize that scientifically, eggs provide proteins which do a lot in building the body.
If pregnant women ate the eggs, the baby would grow to be so big that it could threaten it’s life or that of the mother or both. There were no hospital to take care of any birth complications and so by not eating eggs, the mother and her baby were protected.
This is no more with the high technology and scientists who can tackle most of the problems. Women can eat anything as long as it does not harm them directly.
Do you have such taboos or other beliefs that expectant mothers should adhere to? I will be happy to hear it. Kindly leave it as you comment.
You may not believe it, but he caught me red handed!
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw him. I stood speechless not knowing what to do next. It was true that he didn’t miss his target!
What will I tell him? How will I explain it? A lot of rhetorical questions crisscrossed my mind. Will he ever trust me again?
He had been saying it time and again, but I always denied. Now I had to plead with him for forgiveness.
Mostly he comes home drunk after saying that he doesn’t have money to support the family. Where did he get the money to buy alcohol?
This made me to sneak to his coat pocket or wallet and took some money from there. I had been doing it for some months without him noticing. Incase he did, I always defended by accusing him of visiting bars and that could be where he was losing his cash.
Sometimes he couldn’t ask because it meant that he had some money yet he couldn’t support the family and that couldn’t end well with him. He had been an irresponsible father.
There is this evening when he arrived home totally drunk. He went straight to bedroom and put his wallet carelessly. I thought this was a good chance to do my normal routine. After making sure he was snoring, I took his wallet and took some money.
Before I could make a move, he jumped out of the bed and gave me a king size slap that made me dizzy for some minutes. For all this time, he had been pretending to be drunk. Little did I know that it was a trap.
Having been caught red-handed, I had little or nothing to say. ……..this was a story from one of the ladies in our neighborhood.

Hi, I know there is a lot of buying stuff that comes with Christmas holidays. At blogmas day seven, I would like to share some tips on how to do your shopping.
We are doing this amidst the challenges brought about by coronavirus and so it might be tougher compared to other years.
With those few tips, shop with care.
What and where are you shopping?
I was happy to share this as it may be of a great help to some.
I have been writing a number of posts , and this one was inevitable….. Ginger, garlic, tumeric and lemon are easily available in our markets. I didn’t know how these products were powerful until the time I used them.
We may have ignored their importance but they stand to offer great help to our bodies. I am one of those people who used to hate the garlic smell not to mention the tumeric taste.
Last week, I was suffering from cold and flu. At first, I was shocked as this is one of the covid 19 symptoms. You can imagine how scared I was. I decided to take it easy and tried to manage it by myself and then I would visit the doctor later if it didn’t work. I went fetching for the products in the nearby market.
I then prepared them and mixing everything except lemon which I…

Hi everyone, ready to get a gift for your loved ones as we celebrate the Christmas? Just have a look at this…During Christmas Holidays, we expect to receive or give out gifts to the needy or loved ones. Have you ever participated in this? The excitement of Christmas gifts is very common with children. They want to have Christmas fashion that is trending. The toy car of the latest model. When this time comes, Teenagers are the most stubborn. They will make you move from shop to shop without making a choice.
My dad could visit us every Christmas after staying away for a whole year. Like every other parent, he could come with gifts to sooth our long waited love. Some of these gifts were jackets, dresses and shoes. It was a must to wear the new clothes on Christmas Day as we attended the church service. Without the new dress, one felt out of the place.
I remember that Christmas Eve when he arrived with a lot of gifts. Everyone was excited to try them out and prepare for the show off on Christmas Day.
I was eager to try them too. I took my dress, jacket and a pair of shoes. After putting it on, it was so long that not only did it touch the floor but it was off shoulders too. Not because it was the trending fashion but because I couldn’t fit in. The jacket’s sleeves were oversize and buggy, not to mention the pair of shoes which I could force my feet inside.
My brother was not spared either. His pair of trousers looked like a short while the pair of shoes was too big for him. We couldn’t imagine celebrating Christmas with old clothes and so my mum had to come up with a way out.
She took my brothers shoes, put some used clothes inside to make them smaller for him to fit in. There was too little to do with the pair of trousers which turned out to be a fake pair of shorts.
After putting on my dress, she then used my dad’s belt to tighten the waistline. This made it appear a bit shorter to allow me walk. For the sleeves, little was to be done. The shoes had no remedy and so I had to wear them as the toes pitched together. I could barely walk.
By now you can imagine how we looked. Your guess is as good as mine: scarecrows! This did not deter us from attending the Christmas Service, but by the time I got home,my toes were full of blisters. The important thing to us was we had new clothes and that is all that mattered.
As we prepare to celebrate the Christmas by giving out gifts, it is important to note that the gifts are worthy. If the need be, no harm to get more information about it. Kindly share your opinion on this. For other insights, see here.
Hi good people, it’s 3rd of December. Yes, the third day of blogmas challenge. Still going strong. The very first days of Christmas Holidays. How are you planning to spend the holidays? Today I would like to share where best I prefer spending my Christmas Holidays.
It is obvious that people have different interest depending on different factors. For those who have been living in town, they would prefer to spend their holidays away from hustle and bustle of the city. So, country side becomes one of their best destiny for their holidays.
To those who live upcountry, visiting the cities is the top in their list. They want to relax from daily chores of the farms.
Others will prefer to visit tourist attractions such as game parks or spend their holidays at the hotels where everything is taken care of. This is mostly preferred by ladies who have been taking care of the family. They need the break from the kitchen as well as enjoying pampering from the family members.
Country home is my take for Christmas Holidays. I love that morning when birds wake me up with their chirping and tweeting sound. The sight of the sun rise from the East is amazing not to mention that cool atmosphere that comes with the sun set.
Having meals prepared with products direct from my farm is refreshing. I also take this time to bond with the cows and the pets.
How and where do you prefer spending your holidays? Kindly share as you leave a comment. See how I spent my life in the village here
Take a bath
Eat early enough
Take herbal tea
Do not use your phone 30 minutes before you go to bed
There is this story about Santa visiting people and giving them presents during Christmas holidays. In western countries, this has been practised for decades. Children are told stories on how Santa will visit.
Is the story a fiction or real? Do kids believe in it? When they grow up and understand the whole thing about Santa, what might be their reaction? Do adults lie to kids?
Kindly let’s know your thought.
From the previous episode, the letter continues……
…. won’t be reporting on duty today. I understand that he was arrested after getting involved in hit and run accident. He is remanded at Central Police Station.
From his friend
Things became more complicated to me. The letter was written by his friend. That meant he had given him the keys to access the office. Could it be that Bryan was involved in the Hopekins accident? He didn’t drive and this made me more confused. Could he have hired a cab? And if yes, what was his motive? I decided to rush to the police station and get the real picture of the matter.
He looked devastated. “Bryan, why did you do it? We could have solved the matter in more civilized manner!” I shouted angrily.
He didn’t bother to say a word leave alone to face me. I new my harshness won’t bear any fruits and so I had to control myself.
After sometime, he was ready to talk but the only thing he said was, ” It was an accident. I didn’t mean to do it. Please forgive me. I hope Hopekins is still alive. Kindly let him know that am sorry for what happened.”
“You almost killed him! He is now in critical condition just because of your jealousy. I had told you earlier that Hopekins is just a friend like any other classmate, but you didn’t want to believe me. Now see what you have done. He is in the hospital while you are locked in here. I don’t know whether to be at the office, hospital or police station.” I had a lot to tell him if it were not for the policeman who interrupted, ” Madam the visiting time is over. Kindly leave the station”
Bryan was sentenced to three months imprisonment. Life behind bars was not easy for him. His regrets could not save him neither his remorsefulness.
Hopekins was recuperating and after a month, he had improved and was released to go home under medication. I took him in as he needed a lot of care before he could recover completely.
It didn’t take long and after a few weeks from the hospital, he was able to undertake most of his duties. We could go to the office together. I was happy that he was able to assist in some areas now that Bryan was still at bay. We also agreed to be visiting Bryan at the prison together.
It was our first day to visit him and we didn’t know how his response would be. Immediately we were ushered in, he was called to meet us. I could tell that Hopekins was tensed.
“You have fifteen minutes only,” the officer commanded. I had stayed a while without visiting him as I had to take care of Hopekins and the office duties too. At first I didn’t recognize him. His body had really changed. I didn’t know whether to sympathize or to judge.
He looked at us without saying a word. It was obvious that he didn’t expect to see Hopekins there. We couldn’t guess his next move untill the time he broke the silence……..What did he say? Catch the next episode. I would like to hear from you. Kindly leave a comment. You can as well follow me to be sure not to miss the next episode! Read other posts here.
