28th September annually is International Day for Universal Access to Information.

28th September annually is International Day for Universal Access to Information.

We commend all those individuals, groups, NGOs, Charities, Foundations and others who engage in one form or the other of making information accessible to all. 

God bless your labour and work of love.

May we not do anything in vain.

Remember Romans 10:15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"

Remember the ultimate law is love.

God is love.

There is no answer outside of God.

Your life in God is most important.

In all your research, submit to Jesus Christ and be fervent.

When you look at all these fibre optic cables that transmit information through servers and waves and all, you cannot but worship God for the awesome intelligence He has given to human beings!

When we access information we are being linked with the knowledge that others do know world over.

But in rural areas like in every country but in particular in Nigeria, what is the level of access to information that our brothers and sisters in the villages have?

Do they have power, solar or electricity to access information?

Do they understand the language information is being communicated to them?

Do they need the kind of information they get? Is it relevant?

How can we help to contribute to the widespread access to information even in our surrounding?

Many ways exist, for example I give out radios, buy newspapers, broadcast messages, news and music from my office. How do you spread wholesome information?

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 ...

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...
