Empty... Again

I went shopping for some clothes a few days ago, it was long overdue. Everytime I get new clothes, I am reminded of how excited I used to be about it when I was a kid. My Mom would take us shopping every once in a while as need arose. I recall how excited I would be about my new clothes. But as soon...

Final Impressions

I've just finished 90 days of work at the National Assembly and quite frankly, I've been left wondering as to its relevance. I feel it more of a liability to the nation.Basically, all 500 employees of the National Assembly are there to serve the members of parliament who number 158 (at any given time). The members of parliament, in essence, make laws. So, you pay 500 employees to serve 158 people...

Relationship Craze (2 Questions)

I am on facebook, and from what I've seen, everyone is in a relationship. Either that or they just broke up! Its crazy! There are teens out there who are in relationships who can't even spell the word "relationship". I intend to write alot on this issue because I think its one of the big issues among...

Doctors have concluded that, if you find the man in 3 seconds, then the Right half of your brain is better developed than most people.If you find the man between 3 seconds and one minute, then your right Half of the brain is developed normally.If you find the man between one minute and 3 minutes, then...

Who cares?

I got a comment on my "Is Obama a Christian" post today, that was rather disturbing. You can see the post I am referring to here.The comment was made in anonymity and I quote:"Obama testifies that he is Christian so I take him at his word and regard himas a brother in Christ. I don't agree with him...

Shane & Shane in Zambia!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My favourite duo in the world, "Shane and Shane" (Shane Bernard & Shane Everett) are in my country! What are the odds?! I've spoken about them on here and sang their songs including the song "Holiday" which I sang at the Christmas concert in December! These guys are awesome and they are in Zambia!!!!I'd...

Opposition Guaranteed

There's a group of students who meet every Thursday evening at David Kaunda High School (DK). I usually attend their meetings and even though, I am neither a part of their school nor at their level of education (alittle past), I have been privileged to be accepted and involved there.I have a burden...

Triangle Rule

Not too long ago, we had a family meeting at home. A few issues needed to be settled and so Dad got his bible out, opened in prayer, and we began.I've always been amazed at how "bible oriented" Dad is. When resolving any matter, or handling disputes, or teaching truths about both godliness and life...

Crazy

For one who loves writing so very much, I'm not much of a reader. Pretty ironic, huh?The only books I read are either historical or biographical, for the most part. I've found that for me to finish even a single article on a blog, it would have to be really interesting, not a very good trait but a trait non the less. I began searching for some brilliant writers, good enough to keep me interested in...

Funeral or Party?*

A couple of weeks ago we had a memorial service at church for one of the youths who died about a year ago. He's name was John Kumwenda. John's death came as a shock to all the youths of the church. I recall the day he died very well. The youths had organised a "careers seminar" and had invited two schools...

Python Catcher

How risky is your job?(Not for viewers with a weak heart.) Animal skin to protect the catcher's arm. Point of no return! "Mr. Python, where are you?""There she is!" "Open wide." "Fellas, pull me out, we've got her!""Eh... guys, could you hurry it up?!" "That went pretty well, last time it's the Python...

Air France Plane Crash

Pictures, said to be taken by a passenger, who died with all the others, in the Air France Crash. The two were taken from inside the plane apparently, by an actor survived by a wife and two daughters. Word around the blogsphere is that they were taken with a camera phone and retrieved from the memory...

Heart Changer

Opportunities to preach the gospel, I've always felt, should be taken very seriously especially by those called to preach. It's a shame, when after the preaching of God's word, you decide to speak to someone, after, perhaps a church service or evangelistic meeting, and upon asking them how they got...

Reforms

I once took pride in something I am now ashamed of.I have mentioned before that I don't enjoy meeting strangers. I detest making the acquaintance of individuals I've never known especially when the meeting is face to face. In essence, I am anti-social and like to keep a group of close friends with whom...

Initial Impressions...

I started work yesterday. Its been quite the experience so far, let me begin by admitting that I hate moving to new places and am not so enthusiastic about new people. Its alright to visit a place for a week or two (where two is pushing it) but two months? Its, likewise, ok to meet new people but to...

Is Obama A Christian?

You have to grant it to him, Obama is a most excellent orator. To put it in the words of a former pastor, now lecturer and faculty member of a seminary on the Copperbelt, "You can't just help but like the guy." It is very true, I heard a speech by him were he speaks to graduates at a University in Arizona,...

Sense Of Sight

I got this idea in my head that, all my relevant senses but one, have experienced God. I thought I'd put pen to paper and write a song about it. Sense Of Sight Before I Knew You, I Would Hear You,Hear You Calling Unto MeBut Like Samuel, I Wasn’t SureWhat To Do Or What To SayOh, I Have Heard YouI Have...

Missing My Aim

I've written under 10 songs but I was really embarrassed about them for some reason. My buddy found them accidentally and told me they were good. I decided to pull them out and see what was so "good" about them and sure enough, they weren't half bad. I thought I'd share them and the background surrounding...

Covered!

I already wrote quite a bit of this in the post about the NARBYC conference but I thought I'd do an exclusive write up.In South Africa, one evening, a man was awakened from his bed by his wife who asked him to check the front door because she had heard some noises there. He quickly got out of bed and...

Ten Things I Wish I’d Known When I Was Single:

By Mrs CathrineI've seen this article a couple of times and I thought I'd share it here. Do visit, Mrs Cathrine's blog to see what else she has on there. I thought i'd stick this cute puppy at the top too...1. Marriage doesn’t “develop” the good traits. If you don’t cultivate patience, joy, gentleness,...

NABYC Journal

DAY 1I had no intention of attending the National Reformed Baptist Youth Camp (NARBYC) due to academic pressure but after it dawned on me that it was over the Easter weekend, I changed my mind. For some reason I thought it would be a week long or something like that. Anyway, my two buddies and I decided...
