Today must’ve been one of those “I-dressed-in-the-dark” days, or maybe it’s just my utterly exhausted face. I walked up to the MPesa shop to withdraw Ksh 20,000. The guy finishes the transaction and THEN asks for my ID. “Na si ungesema before?” I snapped, fishing out a softcopy to send. Meanwhile, the lady behind me […]

Verdic was a typical teenager, full of big dreams and hopes for the future. He loved spending time with his friends, scrolling through social media, and thinking about what he wanted to achieve. But over time, he started feeling pressured by what he saw online—people living perfect lives, always looking successful. He began comparing himself, […]

Yes, there’s a concept known as “akrasia,” which refers to acting against one’s better judgment, or essentially self-sabotaging. This can manifest as procrastination or “wanted idleness,” where a person chooses inaction or indulgence over productive activities, leading to negative outcomes such as stress, gluttony, or self-sabotage. When someone is idle by choice—whether due to avoidance, […]

Rev. Ayub’s words, “There are cities within you yet to be built,” got me thinking. Imagine yourself as a divine construction project. God, the ultimate Architect, has drafted a blueprint for your life, and it’s not just a single hut or bungalow—it’s a metropolis! Some of us are stuck in the foundation stage, content with […]

This is a powerful perspective on God’s provision and purpose. It reminds us that every effort we put in, even if it seems fruitless at the moment, is never in vain when we are walking in alignment with God’s will. If you leave empty-handed, it’s not a loss but a seed planted in faith. In […]

I walked into Carrefour, and it felt like stepping into a realm of grace—people were kind, giving way, and apologizing, saying, “Sorry for blocking the path.” Then I entered Naivas, and it was as though I’d stepped into the wilderness: a teenage boy boldly jumped the queue, looked me straight in the eye, and claimed […]

Let’s face it—gluttony is the sin we rarely want to talk about. It sneaks in with its sweet whispers and delicious aromas, convincing us that food will fill the emptiness only God can satisfy. Proverbs 23:2 delivers a warning so sharp it could cut through the toughest steak: “Put a knife to your throat if […]
