Month Review

This month we looked at sub-issues under the theme Solidarity! We in TLF believe in Solidarity which ensures love. Solidarity entails acknowledging everything in another’s life while extending love in living according to God’s Word.

We need to love our neighbours as ourselves and if we do not take others the way we meet them, we may find ourselves displaying superiority complex. 

As a charity and social development organisation, TLF strives to ensure that all concerned- trustees, members, volunteers, beneficiaries, benefactors and all are living in the peace of God. Everyone may not have the position in life and living but we are one in Christ Jesus.

Unity is free, so also is our being children of God. Although the Bible talks a lot about love, God tells us we should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers as two cannot walk together unless they agree. So what should be our stance? Solidarity is first among we the members of the Body of Christ, by that we can fully function as the nose, eyes, legs, hands, and other parts of  body functions for the common good, and secondly solidarity in our common cause to sustain the world as God gave charge to man at creation.

The United Nations enjoins individuals to take seriously the issue of Solidarity as it declared among other relevant dates, 1 March Zero Discrimination Day, 21 March International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, 21 May World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, 13 June International Albinism Awareness Day, 11 July World Population Day, 10 September World Suicide Prevention Day, 16 November International Day for Tolerance, 3 December International Day of Persons with Disabilities, 12 December International Day of Neutrality, 20 December International Human Solidarity Day, all of which are marked yearly to sensitise the public on the theme.

When Jesus is in our acts of Solidarity we will surely enjoy unity. When people use their solidarity to sin, scorn, perpetuate evil and brag, like the in the Tower of Babel then you’ll know that they have missed it.

As Christians we know God is our Father, for our success in solidarity, we must fear God, give Him glory and allow Jesus into our minds and our entire being solely.

Jesus Christ came to show us the example of solidarity for Jesus prayed in John 15 and 16 that we be one just as He and God the Father are and the Holy Spirit He has sent to us for our direction.

Happy New Year, join us and let’s make TLF grow more in every positive way in 2020. Join as a member or volunteer or prayer partner or benefactor or as a beneficiary. Welcome.

Theme Bible Verses

Matthew 12:34 You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. 37 for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." Proverbs 16:28 A perverse man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends. Proverbs 17: 9 He who forgives an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter alienates a friend. 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 ...
