Our Visit To The Sickle Cell Centre

So today we had our visit to the Sickle Cell Centre, where we've been going at least once a year for almost 10 years now.

We met with stiff hostility and terrible behaviour from a staff who stood in the way of our outreach.

In matters like this, we usually overlook such characters and focus on the beneficiary. But this obstacle stood in the way of one patient who would have benefitted from our love visit.

TLF has no intention or time to rub in the mud or take up the issue officially which is a very little thing we can do at no expense, but like Paul in the Holy Bible, who in his letters to the Church, named those who resisted his work and stood in the way of the Gospel, we shall only report this woman's name to God Almighty and leave her to her fate. But we expressed our disappointment in her to her with gentleness and love, as is in our principle as a Foundation.

TLF's policy is not to make people die in their sins or lose their jobs, what shall it profit us? But we know that what we have to give as part of our charity outreach will reach a needy patient in a Government run hospital, latest Sunday by God's grace.

The children of the Kingdom have to be wise and courageous. The people of the world are resilient but we are powerful and more than conquerors. The people of the world are defeated already.

Love, charity and good works are spiritual, if you doubt kindly read about the obstacles Mother Theresa of Calcutta faced! 

The kingdom of darkness can never be happy when you provide free schools, subsidized health care, distribute Bibles, give out meals in food banks or care for the needy.

We are in the world but we are not of it. The battle is real. If God Almighty has kept TLF this long, you'd know that the wickedness we faced at the TLF monthly Hospital visit today at the Sickle Cell Centre, was just a mere tap on the palm.

This goes to show that besides having a will, desire or intention, you must push, keep on and be strong, no ego, no pride, no vindictivenes, no violence and no hate. 

Besides physical giving, we must also be prayerful. Can anyone stand against you and I praying? No. So do your part and we do ours by praying, and let God answer us, in Jesus name, amen.

What is ultimate in TLF's monthly school, hospital and prison visits is that the young get the right education, the sick get healed to go home in divine health, and the prisoners get justice, freedom and peace with God over their actions. Not forgetting the staff.

We have had visits to both public and private institutions and we know the terrain, behaviour of staff, reception by parents and bright eyes of anticipation by children. 

We shall continue to continue our works of charity and social development to the glory of God.

Remember Jesus Christ fed over 5000 men with only 5 loaves and 2 fish, you can start and do something with the little you have. 

It's definitely better than the insensitive and indolent who stand in the way of those who are sensitive, sensible and loving enough to be ready to start little and even do as they are capable. Those with pride who laugh at those who try at all, while they do nothing and wait for trillions to take a first step, or condemn and scorn others who try must remember that whoever gives to the poor and needy lends to God. This is God's matter.

We must fear God. 

God is love.

Remember 30th of this month is our D day for our theme being #EndHumanTrafficking.

You can join us in our activities physically and online via our blog -

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

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...
