Optimist

Jacob looked at Joseph and saw a good son! The ten brothers looked at Joseph and saw a useless dreamer! The travelers looked at Joseph and saw a slave!! Potiphar looked at Joseph and saw a fine servant!! Potiphar's wife looked at Joseph and saw a potential boyfriend! The prison officers saw in Joseph a prisoner! How wrong were all of them! God looked at Joseph and saw a Prime Minister of Egypt in waiting!! Don't be discouraged by what people see in you!! Be encouraged by what God sees in you!! Never underrate the person next to you because you never know what the Lord has deposited in that person. Your maid may be a Chief Executive Officer in waiting for a company which shall employ your child. Your garden-boy may be a president in waiting. (Remember David got the anointing of becoming a King while he was a simple child herding sheep. Esther was a simple orphaned girl yet she was a Queen in waiting). Let's share God's love and make the world a better place to live. IT D...

We shall overcome.We are able.We have what it takes to get us where we want to reach no matter the normal adversities of life. We were created to win and achieve our dreams passion and desires of our hearts. The only problem with our selves is seeing and capitalising on those challenges which confronts us,millions of people pass through them everyday but they come out stronger in each an every adversity.Some adversities are meant to strengthen us, change our mind set towards something better or smoke us out of our comfort zones so that we can pursue what we are suppose to. Life becomes better at any age in life,its just a matter of time and patience but not forgetting an element of appreciating what life presents to us. The day we shall define success in life as a a holistic thing in human life,then we shall have learnt a tip in life.Success in life is not only money, education etc but also health wise, sober minded,family and the like. The day we shall appreciate little things in l...

Learn to be good to people and make a mend with those you have wronged or wronged you, because it can please God to call you home anytime, the only difference is when and how it will happen, so imagine if you are called when you are holding a grudge, or even saying i will not ever forgive so and so, how will it be? For the short time i have been in this planet i have learned that forgiving others is not easy especially when you are thoroughly mistreated or handled, brothers even those of us who are born again find it hard to forgive, however if God gives you the grace to do it more often, then please do it, it is the only way to attain inward peace, so whether, you feel that other people does not deserve your forgiveness please forgive them, if you really want the inward peace and forgiveness from God, make it your lifestyle to forgive, it make the difference in life.

The more the challenges, the nearer the success..The sweeter the meat, the ne...

HEAR WHAT OPRAH WINFREY HAD TO SAY ABOUT MEN : If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better . Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends". A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is Don't stay because you think "it will get better"You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better. The only person you can control in a relationship is you. Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women.He didn't marry them when he got t...

From emmy kosgei Facebook page. Good day family. Today, we mourn as we lay to rest our sister #DianaChelele.  Her ordeal broke my heart. The night I listened to her weak emotional voice I couldn't sleep.. The plight that women go through in silence, domestic violence especially celebrities who have a lot to care for. A society that has demands,expectations,prejudice.. The pressure that makes them live a lie...protect an empty name that a third party has stollen from, she lost everything! Like many who who have nothing to hold after all the singing done. People got emptiness that only God can fill. It Takes boldness to speak up, to move out, to unmask and risk all, to take your stand and follow your heart.. I salute women out there who have boldly saved their lives & said enough is enough! In wanting to protect children, family, fame & name women suffer in silence and end up depressed and opt for suicide,drugs,alcoholism as remedy! I want to urge my sisters out there.. Don...

To be in alignment with what God has for us, we must start the year off as instructed- by obeying God's Holy Principle! God's Word clearly instructs us…"When you come into the land which I give you and reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest," Leviticus 23:10. It is to be set apart as holy unto God! First Fruits in Hebrew is "bikkurim" and literally means "promise to come." And there is ONE who never breaks His promise – God! That is why the truth behind this "promise to come" in God's Word is so powerful. Though long overlooked by many, this divine establishment of God's order of things is actually the root that governs the rest. When you KEEP FIRST THINGS FIRST through faith and obedience, you turn God's promise into provision… ABUNDANT PROVISION! Because He wants to see you succeed, He has put a system into place based on the principle of "First ...

One of the most outstanding failures of all times is a man who lost his job in 1831, was defeated in his run for Illinois state legislature in 1832 and failed in business in 1833.  To most people the next thought would be -and the man died in 1834. However this successful failure was not about to give up yet. He still had more things to fail in!! In 1838 he was defeated in run for Illinois House Speaker. In 1843 he was defeated again on his nomination for U.S. Congress, so to 1849 when he was rejected for lands officer position . In 1854 he was defeated in run for U.S. Senate In 1856 he was defeated for in his run for Nomination for Vice President and in 1858 he was again defeated in his run for U.S. Senate. By this time he had been defeated in practically every elective position he could run for. There was however a major one that he had yet to run for. It is also important to note that whenever he got defeated at any level, he went higher next time. As it turned out, the on...

Mr. Githaka says he was so ambitious from childhood that he achieved to join the only secondary school he ever wished of joining (while everybody selected 3 school, he only did did one school), went to the university he dreamt and pursued the career he ever wished. But after becoming an architect (the only job he knows he could make money without struggling) he realized that still he didn’t have the clout and clamor of a billionaire. He wanted to make more money. So he listed down 10 billionaires in Kenya. The likes of Njenga Karume, John Michuki, Chris Kirubi, Mwai Kibaki,James Mwangi etc and embarked on a study about these people. His main aim was to discover what happened with them. When was their turning point? What did they discover? What do they do? What don’t they do? Obviously, these are normal men, with normal upbringing and faced same challenges as their peers but there came a time when the broke loose from their peers and ended up where they are. So in 3 year...

Tugen Age Set.....Ibinwekab Tugen The Tugen social organisation centres around the age-set, or ibindo. There are seven age-sets (ibinwek) which are rotational, meaning at the end of one ageset new members of that generation are born. The order is roughly as given below. Among the some Kalenjin peoples, an age-set called Maina exists. However, among the Tugen, this ageset is extinct. Legend has it that the members of this ibindo were wiped out by the Keiyo, their cousins in war. For fear of a recurrence, the community decided to retire the age-set. Ibindo was given out at initiation and by simple arrangements, there ought to be one ibindo between a father and a son. For example, a korongoro cannot beget a kipkoimet. The Tugen don't consider a woman to have an ageset, hence she can marry any ageset except that in which her father belongs. The Tugen say "ma tinyei ibin korko" which means a woman has no ageset. Chumo Sawe Korongoro Kipkoimet Kaplelach K...

Stop Cursing Yourself ..... By Kapkiai Joseph It has been studied and proofed beyond any reasonable doubt that what we confess and believe forms the inner us. Also what we frequently watch/see and think adds to the inner development of ones self. The environment we  live in also adds a recipe to our life's.I was once taught by my computer teacher some years back that if you input cabbage data to the computer,the outcome is cabbage out , hence cabbage in cabbage out. this implies that if you enter wrong data to the computer,computer will accept and process for you wrong results. When we come to real life scenario,we may not deny our eyes from seeing anything,we may not tame our mind from thinking,we may not tame our mouths from confessing/speaking words. Words have power. Words are alive. Words planted today may germinate in 10 years to come!the words we use to describe ourselves,our children,our environment/village have positive or negative results. We are who w...

"May those who seek your life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plot your ruin be turned back in dismay." psalms 35:4 As you retire to bed every night,as you put down your your plans every day, as you set a blue print of your life in the next ten years, as you enjoy those great blessings of the LORD...education,employment,children,financial success,good health,reputable relationship,respected social class and the likes. As we enjoy all this be  aware also that the devil and all his agents are not happy. The devil is always planning for your downfall. The devil is planning to stagnate your life progress. the devil is putting a trap on your highway to prosperity. The devil is designing a temptations which he thinks it suits you!....the devil is daily in hurry for your life and the life of your children and family at large.. THERE IS NO GOOD THAT THE DEVIL IS PLANNING FOR ANY ONE OF US.....AND FOREVER THERE WILL BE NOT.   But God JEHOVAH,t...

Its Possible ........ .By Kapkiai J Its is difficult for an ailing patient to believe that the disease can and will go. Its also hard for a student who  has been performing low in class work to believe that things can change to be better. Its hard for a spouse who has been through family conflicts to believe that one day the situation can change to be a loving family. Its hard for a bussiness person to believe that debts owed people,deteroriating sales,unpromising business future can change in a sunrise and become a booming business of its kind. It is possible. It is possible. Though we might be passing through challenging situations in life but one thing which remain clear is that it will pass..We can and we will overcome them. Living without challenges may not happen but overcoming challenges is life.One sad,unfortunate and tough season should not despair us because thats just one season,there are other seasons which will favor us and our situatons

Everyone faces difficulties from time to time. It’s a natural part of the cycle of life. Just like we can’t really know hot without knowing cold, we can’t really know the good times if we don’t know bad times. Sometimes the difficulties we face in life come from situations out of our control, and other times our difficulties are a direct consequence of the decisions we make. In life, we cannot change events or their outcome. We can, however, choose the emotion and meaning we attach to them. It’s like the saying goes “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react”. We have to retrain ourselves to see the positive in even the most challenging times. Questions To Ask Yourself To Stay Positive 1. Am I Still Breathing? Sometimes the best we can do is breathe. During overwhelmingly difficult times, our stress levels rise, our breathing gets shallow, and our body’s natural rhythm gets all out of tune. At these times it’s essential to stop and ask yourself, ‘am I ...

Signs Your Colleagues Don’t Like You Source Lifehack I know, I know: How can anyone not like you? Unfortunately, no matter how hard you try to please everyone, there are going to be people that just don’t enjoy your company. There’s nothing wrong with that. But you also shouldn’t waste your time trying to make them like you. Instead, recognize the signs, and realize it’s out of your hands. Stay away from those who think you’re a nuisance, and find better colleagues to hang out with. Signs That Your Colleagues Don’t Really Like You 1. They don’t smile around you Obviously, this is a telltale sign that someone doesn’t like you. If a coworker can’t even master up the strength to smile at you when they walk past you in the hallway, they probably don’t want anything to do with you. Of course, if it happens once, you can probably assume they’re having a bad day. But if it happens continuously, you’ll know there’s a problem. 2. They don’t make eye contact with you ...
