Month Review

This month we looked at sub-issues under the theme Social Justice! We in TLF abhor social injustice. We need to love our neighbours as ourselves and if we do unto others what we want done to us we would be more sensitive to the issues of justice. Most times the issues of social injustice do not ring a bell to some until it comes close to home, God forbid that should happen.  

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 consciousness that we serve a God of mercy Who is also the God of justice. Everyone may not have the basics of life and living but we are tranquil in Christ Jesus. 

The United Nations enjoins individuals to take seriously the issue of Social Justice as it declared among other relevant dates, 20th February is World Day of Social Justice, 7th April is International Day of Reflection on the Genocide in Rwanda, 

15th September is International Day of Democracy, 9th December is International Anti-Corruption Day, yearly to sensitise the public on the theme.

When God is in our rulership and leadership we will surely enjoy social justice. When people use the system which is put in place to achieve social justice, to sin, scorn, perpetuate evil and brag, then you will know that they have missed it.

But this should not be counted among us, 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 social justice for Jesus defended the causes of widows, the sick, the poor, the social neglects as well as strangers.

PRAYER FOR FORGIVENESS. We have ridiculed the absolute truth of God's word and called it 'pluralism'. We have worshipped other gods and said 'give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar'. We have endorsed pervertion and called it 'alternative life style'. We have exploited the poor and called it 'lottery'. We have rewarded laziness and called it 'welfare'. We have committed adultery and called it 'playing around'. We have committed fornication and called it 'having fun'. We have killed unborn children and called it 'choice'. We neglected to discipline our children and called it 'building self esteem'. We have abused power and called it 'politics'. We have converted our neighbour's property and called it 'ambition'.

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...

Today is the second part of our D Day for the month of August! Although this celebration is marked in the month of May, we have harmonised all relevant sub-themes dealing with family and youth under this month of August.  15th of May is International Day of Families.  We commend all those individuals, groups, NGOs, Charities, Foundations and others who engage in one form of activity or the other to promote wholesome family life and the true meaning of family.  God bless your labour and work of love. May we not do anything in vain. Remember - Matthew 12:49 And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, "Here are My mother and My brothers! Psalm 113:Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! You are invited to attend our viewing of - "Loneliness is literally killing us" by Will Wright at TEDxBirmingham . We commend the speaker and give kudos to the organisers.
