"You change your steps according to the beating of the drum"

- Ewe proverb from West Africa.



If we are dancing to a drum beat, we must follow when it starts to

beat a new rhythm. If we do not change, we are left behind, as we

try to follow the beat that has ended!



In the book of Psalms, the singer writes about God:

"You have changed my crying into joyful dancing. No longer am I sad and wearing sack-cloth."



In every person's life, there comes a time when God asks us to start

to dance to his drum beat. We can choose to stay with our old drum

beat - that is: living our life in our own way, with ourselves at the centre. Or we can choose God's drum beat.



This will give us many new things. We will start to understand the

meaning of life. We will find a real purpose for living. God will

show us his way to be forgiven and to escape from shame, fear and

hurt. We will learn how to love and forgive other people (and

ourselves) in a new way. It can be a difficult dance at times, but it

is a dance of joy. Do you want to join his dance?

Courtesy: SOON.


This is the poster for the mnth of June. May it bless your life, amen

Theme Bible Verses

Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil?

Leviticus 19:16 You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not stand forth against the life of your neighbour: I am the LORD. Proverbs 26:20 For lack of wood the fire goes out; and where there is no whisperer, quarrelling ceases. 22 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body. Proverbs 11:13 He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing hidden. Psalms 34:13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Charles For: Frien...

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook ...
