Month Review

This month we looked at sub-issues under the theme Sanity aka Balance aka Extra-Curricular Activities! We in TLF believe in Balance which ensures sanity. Balance entails everything needed to lead a wholesome life. We need to love our neighbours as ourselves and if we do not take care of our affairs we would either burnout or not be able to show love to others. 

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 basics of life and living but we are tranquil in Christ Jesus.

Happiness is free, so also is our being children of God. Although Apostle Paul wrote a number of his books in prison he did not let it affect his sanity. So what is our excuse? Extra-Curricular Activities abound in different forms and we encouraged to engage in any, as we can.

The United Nations enjoins individuals to take seriously the issue of Sanity aka Balance aka Extra-Curricular Activities as it declared among other relevant dates, 27th of September as World Tourism Day, 6th of April as International Day of Sport for Development and Peace, 16th May as International Day of Living Together in Peace, 21st of September as International Day of Peace, yearly to sensitise the public on the theme.

When Jesus is in our Work and Extra-Curricular Activities we will surely enjoy Sanity and Balance. When people use their Extra-Curricular Activities to sin, scorn, perpetuate evil and brag, then you’ll know that they have missed it.

As Christians we know God is our Father, for our success in having balanced lives, 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 balance for Jesus as a Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him, He increased in stature and in favour with God and men.

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
