Poem

Are we imprisoned?

Imprisoned in the cell of society

which has affected our minds heavily

not allowing us to think of things through.

Society has dictated what to wear what to drink

how to live and what to think.

Are you kidding? society has dictated when to love, give thanks, 

when I give a gift

society is a massive rock I wanna lift.

Are we imprisoned in Society

this life ain't right for...

Society has taken an essential tool away 

and that is our freedom, 

of everything that could be left behind

we leave our most powerful tool and that is our minds.

I wonder if we'll ever find our minds so I can rewind society's bind

I can no longer hear, I can no longer listen we're imprisoned in societies' system.

God Help Us Amen

#Copied

As we go through this theme in TLF for the rest of this month and indeed for all time, recognise the people who "imprison you" figuratively. 

I thank everyone who fights to keep people justly out of prisons – of the cell, mind, religion, tribalism, status, finance, ritual and class in this life in one way or the other through words, deeds and prayers. I am honoured to also do so for others. There is also a special place for all those who do so for Tina Tobo & Associate, our sister body. When we keep in mind those who love us there would be no room or place in our lives for injustice, discrimination or hate. We preach love, we practice it, we pray for it. God is love.

Our TLF 2 Day Event

Our TLF 2 Day Event started on Thursday and ended yesterday Friday. We had the person of Mrs Ishioma Francis who came to share good news with the children. We had Art competition and prizes were given. We had spelling bee and gifts were given. We had skipping competition and gifts were given. We had recitation of poems originally written by the children and gifts were given. We also used the opportunity to remind everyone of our theme for August. We shared our drinks and biscuits and everyone had a nice time. The children interacted and had a nice time. It came to a happy end and everyone went back home safely. We look forward to more activities such as these. We thank God for the success and blessings. God bless all those who contributed in various ways. Remember that, the ultimate law is love. TLF

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 ...

Theme

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs? Like food, shelter, clothings and transportation? What about having what to give to others in need? There are so many reasons to work. I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...
