15th September is International Day of Democracy.

We commend all those political parties, political groups, civil societies, school unions, pressure groups, individuals, groups, NGOs, Charities, Foundations and others who engage in the promotion of the democratic way of governance.

God bless their labour and work of love.

We commend those who have peaceful transited governments in democratic rule and condemn those who have held on to power limitlessly.

We encourage those who speak out and such citizens who help to create such awareness for the rest of the world to know and abhor.

May we not do anything in vain.

Remember James 1:25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. James 2:12 So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.

Remember the ultimate law is love.

God is love.

There is no love outside of God.

Your life in God is most important.

Even though it is sad that Africa has one of the worst democracies, we still hope that one day we would get it right. There are monarchies in Asia and Europe which have also one form of democracy or the other. What is most important however is good governance!

In all your quest for democracy, submit to the authority of Jesus Christ and be fervent.

Tina Tobo

... the ultimate law is love.

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...
