Profile Information:

- Country (not County)
- Kenya
- Occupation:
- Evangelist, motivational speaker and HR & Legal Co-ordinator
- I'm here to...
- Link-up and fellowship with all those who worship God in truth and in spirit...to laugh with those who are laughing and to cry with those who are crying and to not only share their pain, but try to lessen it for them in Christ Jesus!
- Interests:
- I like everything in life knowing that all that happens is God's will for me and that He will always act for my utmost good according to His divine plan. Many things puzzle me...yes...but nothing takes my happiness out of my hands for I know that Jehovah God is in control. Nothing can ever take the truth He has laid out in Romans8:28 from my heart; ALL THINGS WORK OUT FOR MY GOOD. How so wonderful!!!
- I'm passionate about...
- Making millions of disciples and winning souls for God! I glory in selflessness for He was selfless...He lived for others and though the owner and originator of all, He chose to live a poor man's life. In the same footsteps, I attach very little importance to material things (which are at best only momentary) and have taught my family to aspire for the secret joy derived from giving. We therefore own so little except the very basic!
- My story with God
- He is the starter and finisher of my faith through His glorious and wonderful Son Jesus Christ. After spending considerable time chasing the vanities of this world, I have come to accept the fact that there is no thrill like knowing and living for Christ. I was once a Catholic of Catholics...and if there is any one thing I know know for sure, it is that CATHOLISM (AND "RELIGIOSITY AS A WHOLE)" IS THE ONE MOST DANGEROUS weapons satan is using to divide the sheep and lead masses to their eternal damnation. I let anyone who would care to listen know this...those people don't worship Jehovah God the way He has decreed to be worshipped! Let all who have ears listen to what the spirit of the Lord is saying!
- Other stuff about me:
- I am what one may comfortably label "everyone's servant" and a man for all seasons. I go out of my way to comfort all...more so ladies, who life has treated cruelly, more often than not....in the hands of unconverted men. I cry daily when I see the attrocities meted out on innocent children...even by those closest to them. I am mad about children...I just love kids and spend most of my time with them. I strive daily to be a pillar in prayer...and although I fail repeatedly, I know that Christ looks down on me from His high seat and count all my pitiable struggles for righteousness. I cherish prayers for therein lies my (and yours too) only victory over life's challenges! I adorn daily God's Spiritual armour before I step out as outlined in Ephesians 6:11. It is His WAR...we can only win it through HIS ARMOUR...not our pitiable efforts. He won it already for us, hallelujah!!! Worshiping the Lord in truth and spirit is fun...and truly enjoyable!!! I invite all to give Christ their all. You will never regret the effort.

I am one of Christy's friends in Jesus. I am so glad if I contribute to your growth... we never become too old to grow. I am a "young" old lady who is prepared to sit at a disciples feet to learn... We can never know enough about God and His son - our Redeemer.
I, like you, am passionate about children and babies and I weep to see how sadly they are treated.
Mari (my daughter married to pastor) helps at a baby home for abandoned babies who mostly are HIV infected. Jessica, my 10 year old granddaughter just loves the babies and it is the highlight of her life when they are allowed to keep one for a week or so to relieve the staff and her greatest ambition is to be a MOTHER to a BABY HOUSE when she is grown up. And I just feel that this is what she will do. She is very much like me - compassionate and kind - even though I say so myself. I weep for people in distress and my hand and heart is always open...
Praise God that we worship together for we all serve the same God and have the same Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Fond love to your darling wife and children

If you’ve never asked the question
Who or when or why or how
Give your mind that great suggestion
Go ahead and do it now
You will find when you consider
All the options that abound
There is still but one conclusion
Where peace of mind is found
It’s not in education
In religion or in books
In retirement funds and IRAs
Or how the market looks
It’s not in status or in style
How low in golf you score
It’s not the running of a mile
Or who you’re working for
It’s not the price you pay for things
It’s not the jewels and fancy rings
It’s not the checks and credit cards
Secured by all those guns and guards
It’s not the beauty of your face
It’s not a matter of your face
It’s not the muscle on your bones
Your classy looks or great skin tones
What matters most in life today
Is where you stand along the way
Not what you have but what you are
How faith in God succeeds by far
God is the answer to the question
Of the who, when, why or how
And He gives the invitation:
‘TRUST IN ME AND DO IT NOW’’
You’ll find God meets your deepest need
With His kind words your soul He’ll feed
He guide your steps and makes things right
He’ll turn darkness into light…..

I hope that yours has been better! Have a blessed weekend brother, and I hope I may hear from you soon!

To let you know, I should admit that though I was brought up as Catholic since I was born, only recently I feel the urge to have personal relationship to God. Yes...the Catholism can sometimes make you bound to rituals and memorized prayer, but it's gradually changed. I happened to get sick and by this I really had to get back to personal prayer and relationship to God, that I was only occasionally do. I used to lie to my parents that I'd gone to mass, only to please them...!!How sorry I am still just remembering that. But actully it's still the Catholic church that I know that reminded me how I should return to God, I attended the Evangelical courses that is now everywhere in Catholic churhes, allowing the layman to take parts in evangelisation. So hopefully every church will be active in spreading the Word's of God now.
So dear brother Brateng.....I am sorry to that it took me so much time to write back to you that you wondered whether I was angry still with you. I now consider you as my dear friend in this net. We hopefully would share lot's of thing in the name of our Precious Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.....Hope to hear from you about your story of spreading the Good News.
I will ask you other questions later, as I am interested in your point of view. See ya brother...

I LOVE YOU ALL... Brateng, you excell! You are a GREAT ACHIEVER... I would like to draw a comparison between you and David with Goliath. Your challenge is GIANTLIKE and you are equipped with 5 stones and sling... and you kill a GIANT like SATAN... with just one stone and still have four stones left!
I use many exclamation marks! I believe in stressing something with an wexclamation!!! See that is how it works...
That was in a lighter vein but seriously, I do believe you and Mary have been anointed by God. Just carry on and do your humble work (a slave of Jesus) I want to be his slave too... because I adore him.
My son-in-law is also a humble servant of Jesus and I love him because he is so loyal. I don't know how many white pastors would spend a week-end in a shack and bring the gospel to shack dwellers with all the fervour and spark like Roedolf. He is also learning to speak Zulu and Edward is his mentor and Roedolf is Edward's mentor to make him a Pastor and a Shepherd ...
God is so amazing! It is awesome.
I no longer feel the cold in South Africa - I feel the warmth of a brother in Christ.
Great big GIANT hugs from a "warm" wintry South Africa
Your mother and sister in Christ

GLAD THAT CHRISTY HAS BEEN SAFELY UNITED WITH HER DAUGHTER FOR THE WEDDING.
WE KNOW THAT SHE WILL BE OKAY BECAUSE SHE IS IN GOD'S HANDS... NOT GOOD HANDS... BUT THE BEST! WE PRAY FOR TRAVEL MERCIES FOR CHRISTY AND I PRAY FOR YOU AND MARY AND MY GRANDCHILDREN FOR PEACE AND HARMONY IN YOUR CONGREGATION.
BLESSINGS AND HUGS

It is indeed sad if people are "pulling" out - I have joined more groups but I intend to stay at AAG. I am missing Ron Payne. Is he on holiday? Try to find out.
He is such a great guy.
Your children are so beautiful and Mary is great.
Just remember that indeed UNITED WE STAND and DIVIDED WE FALL.
If people are permanently withdrawing we need David's sling and stones - because it is the enemy SATAN!

I have had to walk in the path of greif and loss in the last 2 months after loosing my mom, sister-inlaw, and a dear friend. It is not easy to deal with. The Lord is always a help in time of need so I know our brother is in good hands.I am glad that you enjoyed the Messianic Music. I have always loved it for years and was so blessed thet Paul Wilber is still blessing the body of Christ after many years. I will leave you a couple more, one with his daughter.
Blessings my brother to you and your family this day.
In Jesus Love.

Was anxious to get from work just to say hi and leave a message for my son!
How are you really doing sonny?Life tends to dish out sometimes things we do not want in our lives but it comes our way, I think the reason God allows things to happen to us is to make us stronger in faith and to draw us nearer to Him so we learn to listen better when He speaks to us. Still praying for all the arrangements for the crusade, praise God for wonderful miracles thats going to take place in JEsus Name!!
Thanks for all your prayers, love and support, what a privilege to have such a wonderful son!
Mom is thinking of you!!

Thank you so much for getting back to my homepage you dont know how much i have missed your comments. you gave me such a long break my dear but thank God that Cathlene Aldea did a very wonderful Job of blessing me with very nice Spiritual postings through my private adress that you wont access dear..since you are always reading through my homepage. sometimes I wonder how you would do without me on this wonderful page....hahahahahahahaha...now that is a very bad joke. Well dear Iam so sorry about Patience i almost shed a tear when I was reading your message...I dont know everyday something has to wake me up from my slumber...I really need to thank God for avery little blessing in my life including MTN now. I feel so bad about Patience's condition..now we have every reason to keep our knees down...isn't that the reason as to why we are on this wonderful site..to pray, worship and share together for the Glory of God. I strongly believe in my heart that common saying that when a door closes God opens another one..and a better one,,because He wants the best for us. I know deep down that God will make a way for patience for as long as we keep our knees down in prayer...we did it for Sylvia He answered us..though I miss her immensely, then Christy and He answered us....then its gonna be her ...and lets wait for the testimony.
Well yesterday was so great chating with you, I was so hurt when the chat net went off and cut us short..but atleast we had a good time. I saw your offline messages this morning..was also hoping to find you online but your are offline but is ok coz my break is almost ending. Have you seen the message that Rana sent me blessing me with wonderful songs. God works in so many ways...see how he showed Rana to bless me with Casting Crown song..they are are my favorite guys and yesterday i fidgted so much trying to download their songs but mounted to nothing. I trully give Glory to God. Now sweerie remember to bless me with agift of Casting crown CD on my wedding day...hehehehehe a good joke now.
Hey let me stop here and write to Rana. Be blessed my dear. Iam going for leave starting tomorrow up to 31st end of this month. I will miss you all my friends on this net but for you we shall be communicating on phone. Oh you are so Lucky!!
Hmmmm can I say bye please. Be blessed in Jesus's Name and please keep me updated about Christy and patience.
That song that I added failed to play and I also failed to delete it..so ignore it and use the links that Rana sent me and have a blast.
Love you lots. Lorna.

I have once again been off work, I have not been well at all, this fit I had has set me back, I have never felt as bad I have in the last few weeks. I do believe that I am on the mend and that all the prayers have helped plenty. Thank you so much for your concern and for your prayers, I really do appreciate it. I value your friendship and your input into my life. I have missed our chats.
Take Care and Blessings to you and your family.

I was talking to my friend Roberto last night at prayer meeting about you and said that any church in America could not find a better Pastor than you.
Many here just do it as a job and it is not a calling from God. I thank God that He has unified the Born Again Pastors in my erea who meet together every week and pray and support each other.
I am so glad that God has raised up AllaboutGod so that we can do the same thing and distance is not a problem. I am fellowshipping more here than with my own church.
What a great time in history where we can bind together as Christians and strengthen and support each other in ways that would not have been possible just a few years ago.
I think Paul would have loved the internet so he could comunicate with all his churches he planted.
All I can say is that my heart leaps in me when I see I have a message from you. I pray that we will be able to continue to fellowship until we are in His kingdom together. I am here in Vermont and you are in Malindi, and yet we are together in Christ in our hearts.
Brother, I spent some time yesterday watching video from Kenya and other places in Africa to get a better understanding of worship in the churches. I love the joy that is in the worship. Tell me about your church and your worship.
Well I have taken up enough of your time this day. I just want you to know my heart for you my brother.
In the love of Jesus.

I'm sorry that I took so long to reply on your comment,I did not see that you left a comment on my page at that stage. She is not with me at this stage because I am at work at the moment.
She has been really busy these last couple of days. She started at a new work as well and it is now a full day work, so she doesn't get much time to spend on the net, although it is her hearts desire,for she see AAG totaly as a blessing, calling and ministy that she would like to do fulltime. We should pray for her so that God would provide for her so that she can do AAG fulltime.
May the Lord bless you

One step at a time is the best way to go
When going through life and traveling in the direction of your dreams
The best way to get ahead is the simpliest way:
Take one step at a time
Don’t look over your shoulder
If you do, you’ll feel the weight of all your yesterdays upon you
And don’t worry about what lies ahead
By the time you get to the bend in the road or the crest of the hill
You’re going to be better and stronger than you ever were before
Just go one step at a time
One day at a time
And you’ll find a rich, thankful life you never thought you could afford….

How are you sonny? Really miss our chats so much, we always shared so much but the enemy tries whatever he can to destroy our links with our fellow bretheren but i have a surprise for him for our God wil not allow it for He wants us to have this precious moments with friends!! He will restore time, means etc whatever is needed to do His work!!! All of us has a ministry and we must fulfill it and when we are in the will of God satan doesnt like it all and do whatvever he can but as i said surprise coming up for him for our God reigns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Really running around for excep the jobs there is still sundayschool meetings and preparations and my favourite ministry here on the Net but through Gods grace I still cope although I dont have much time now for the kids and myself but i am not going to worry for everything will work out fine!! (Must keep faith for only faith pleases God Hebr 11:6)
Hope you have a blessed weekend and services at church! Thinking of you and praying foryou!
