At a gay wedding, the officiating priest was confused on how to declare two men as husband and wife. After a long silence, the priest said, “I hereby pronounce you Man-United”

JOKE – PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH
A preacher says to his congregation, “Next sunday my sermon will be on the subject of liars. As preparation, i”d like you to read Mark, chapter 17.” The following sunday, the preacher rises to begin his sermon. Looking at the congregation, he says, “Last week i asked you to read Mark, chapter 17. If you read it please raise your hand.” Nearly every hand in the church goes up. “You are the very people i want to talk to today,” the preacher says with a smile.
“Mark has only 16 chapters.”

Wisdom from Tibet
The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered “Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”

BECAUSE OF YOU
Because you picked me up, when I struggled to get through.
Because you healed my heart, when it was thrown and shattered.
Because you gave me hope, when it seemed so out of reach.
Because you filled me with peace, when chaos flowed through my veins.
Because you showed me the light, when there was only darkness.
Because you gave me comfort, when my voice cried out in pain.
Because you reassured me, when the doubts screamed in my head.
Because you kept me going, when there seemed nowhere to go.
Because you sustained me with strength, when weakness became all I knew.
Because you came and stayed, when everyone else turned around and left.
Because you gave me a purpose, when life seemed so pointless.
Because you restored my happiness, when life seemed to snatch it away.
Because you filled this emptiness, when the void echoed with loneliness.
Because you helped me let it all go, when I gripped the tightest to hold on.
Because you showed me the beauty of life, when the world showed me nothing but hate and corruption.
Because you gave me a better life, when the old one fought to come back.
Because I am nothing without you, nothing but a hopeless being.
Because only You could tear down my wall of pride, and instead build it back up with love and humbleness.
Because of all this, I give you my life Lord.
I will put all my fears and failures in Your hands, my worries that consume me, my pain that destroys me.
You were always there, even when I rejected You.
Because of all You are, my life, oh God, is yours.
Happiness is a Voyage
We convince ourselves that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another. Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough 
and that all will be well when they are older. Then we are frustrated because they reach adolescence and we must deal with them. Surely we’ll be happier when they grow out of the teen years. We tell ourselves our life will be better when our spouse gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire.
The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than right now. If not, then when? Your life will always be full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all. For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start.
Real life. But there was always some obstacle along the way, an ordeal to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid. Then life would start. I finally came to understand that those obstacles were life.
That point of view helped me see that there isn’t any road to happiness. Happiness IS the road.
So, enjoy every moment. Stop waiting for school to end, for a return to school, for work to begin, to get married, for Friday evening, for Sunday morning, waiting for a new car, for spring, for summer, for fall, for winter, for the first or the fifteenth of the month, for your song to be played on the radio, to die, to be reborn… before deciding to be happy.
Happiness is a voyage, not a destination.
There is no better time to be happy than… NOW!
Live and enjoy the moment.
People say be good to people on your way up because you will need them on your way coming down while it is not so for me, am good to people on my way going up not because I will come down one day but because I want to pull them to my level of life as well and its in my ability to do good.
Proverbs 4:18 makes it clear that the path of the just is as a shining light thats gets brighter and brighter therefore, my life is up and forward only.
God told me there is no day written as a day of your downfall in this life that implies to you as well. Praise God
A Journey of One Thousand Miles
“Looking at the king’s mouth, an old man once said, one would think he never sucked at
his mother’s breasts”. This is an African proverb which teaches us that when one has risen to a great fortune, many people would think that he has never been in poverty. Yesterday, we opened school at Vision School of Accountancy where I am pursuing Business Administration under Association for Business Executives (ABE).
It has been hard trying to secure for a school place since when I completed my high school in 2003. I thank god to every vision there is a provision, as the Lord has provided tuition fees through Pastor Lawrence Temfwe Jubilee Centre’s Executive Director and Father Miha Drevensek Mission Press Executive Director; because my parents can’t afford to pay as they are too old and don’t have a source of income.
Education is the leading of souls to what is best and making what is best out of them, is a profound quote. My soul is now at ease with this great privilege of one day being called Mr. Educated. I thank you Gibson Kwale ‘the only wise man’, Chilila Kangaji ‘the only good accountant’, Matt and Polly ‘the only understanding couple’ and all the well wishers who earnestly contributed for me to be in school.
May the good Lord remember you and be smiling at you all the days of your life.

Wedding Joke
Be careful who prints your wedding programme!
A printer was asked to put 1st John 4:18 on a wedding programme but he made a mistake. Instead he printed John 4:18.
1st John 4:18 says: “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.”
John 4:18 reads : “The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband.”

THE POWER OF WORDS
Yes, words can lift up the spirits
Of those who are bowed with despair,
For words can fill them with courage,
Because they show them how much you care.
Gentle words spoken at just the right time
Can soften a cold, hardened heart,
And in the dark times of doubt and of fear,
Strength, joy and peace they impart.
So think carefully about each word that you speak,
And how somebody may be affected,
For words can also kill and destroy,
If by love they have not been perfected.
So speak only words that encourage
And cause others in God’s love to grow -
Yes, speak only words of hope and of life
So the power of God’s love will show.
Media Department Prayer Request
Greetings in Jesus name the son of the true living GOD. I am Daniel Daka the Media/IT coordinator at Jubilee Centre. In media department we are so grateful for your support through the skills 
imparted to me through video editing and your prayers. I am grateful that I now use a Mac Computer and have final cut pro installed on it.
I have been using a Sony Handycam dcr-hc40 video camera that was donated to Jubilee Centre by Pastor Jim Liske two years ago. The picture quality of the videos produced at Jubilee Centre is limited as the the camera has seen its days. When shooting in the field the battery can only last for less than one hour. 
In order to improve the video quality and to be efficient we are praying for a professional camera such as Panasonic HVX200A DVCPROHD P2 Camera .
Join us in prayer
In Christ

MY TESTAMENT
This is my testament. Tomorrow I may not walk among you. For I am a man made of 
clay, like many before me, have to complete the race. I am not the best, and this I have always known. As celestial is the eclipse of the end of time, tomorrow, I will walk away, far beyond the future. A distance, the past cannot equal. Trying to understand, a lesson I knew may be the last. I looked into the deep blue skies, my eyes locked. I again, sought the depth of the deep blue skies. It cannot be. It surely cannot be. But it has been. In the deep blue skies, I always see my completion.
I may not have lived my existence on Earth to the fullest. I may not have been as good
as many may have expected. And, indeed, I may not have achieved what many thought I would achieve. But, in my heart I am contended. I walked in meadows, dry bushes and patchy sands attesting to the footprints of those who heard my cries. I sought not echoes of understanding from others. But, if it be, there were echoes of understanding, and nought was learnt, then let it be known, I too have my failings.
In this testimony, I seek that you shall not look to the seeking that which afflicts you, I seek that you look closely into your shadow, look over your shoulder and seek my understanding.
As I prepare to be with the maker I confirmed with King Solomon when he said, “I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.” Ecclesiastes 9:11
DO YOU DANCE TO THE TUNE OF LIFE?
Friends, life is a journey with too many questions & too few answers. There are too many things that fill this life. Some things can drive you mad, but only by the grace of God do we live each day. That is why they say: Life is like a song and only the wise can dance to the tune.
Do you dance to the tune of life?

NAILS IN THE FENCE
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His Father gave him a bag of nails 
and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.
Finally the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper.
The days passed and the young boy was 
finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, “You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won’t matter how many times you say I’m sorry, the wound is still there.” A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.
OUR DEEPEST FEAR
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are 
powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking So that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
May God cause you through the Holy Spirit to be broken for things that break the heart of God.
BLINDFOLD
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 to 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.
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, protecting his son from harm.
We, too, are never alone. Even when we don’t know it, God is watching over us, sitting on the stump beside us. When trouble comes, all we have to do is reach out to Him.
Moral of the story: Just because you can’t see God, doesn’t mean He is not there.
“For we walk by faith, not by sight”

Am Reliable, self starter, trust worthy and adapts to situations and environments.I enjoy engaging and challenging communities and different areas of society on a range of issues that they may otherwise not hear about. I am especially interested in social development and the environment.
Time of Silence
The end of 2007 has been my time of silence in publishing to my web log. It has been hard trying to secure for my school place so that I attain tertiary education so that I secure my future as soon as possible before I become the Minister or a presidential candidate in 2031.
Nepotism and corruption is all over the country demanding to devour the ambitions of innocent souls in poverty. It is a question of my above suspicion soul that will ghetto birds ever be dying before they even learn how to fly? Like it is common to every other man that those who wish to sing will find a song, God is great beyond imagination for he has been faithful to me; finally I have found a place to study Business Administration under Association for Business Executives (ABE).
2008 is the year of new beginnings and accomplishment. As we read in the bible the seventh year (2007) was a year of man; cancelling of debts, slaves were liberated to leave their masters if they wished so and the land was to remain uncultivated. Now that we are in 2008, it the year of new inauguration and new promises as the Lord will be faithful to us.
All those who have been at the bottom of my success and helped me reach this far, I say within your heart and your dwelling may the special things you do retain to you.
Happy New Year and God Bless!!! Daniel C. Daka
For Mothers and Mothers to be
A baby asked God “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?” God said,”Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”
The child further inquired. “But tell me, here in heaven I don’t have to do anything but 
sing and smile to be happy.” God said, “Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel’s love and be very happy.” Again the child asked, “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?” God said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”
“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?” God said, “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.” “Who will protect me?” God said, “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.”
“But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.” God said, “Your angel will 
always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way back to Me, even though I will always be next to you.”
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven but voices from earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, “God if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”
God said, “You will simply call her Mommy.”
Help Her
I am Pastor Josphine Kolala of Shalom Christian Centre in Kawama. There are many reasons why I am involved in the fight against HIV and AIDS. But if I were to choose just one reason, it would be that every person should 
hear the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I am one of the 288 church leaders who have been privileged to undergo the Transformation Journey Course that is offered by Jubilee Centre in partnership with Willow Creek, Southridge and Ridgepoint Churches in the USA. The training has helped me how to identify what needs to change in the community and how the church and community can work together in developing a vision for the future and planning how we can bring about this change in the community.

Because of this training I saw the need to engage my local government on issues related to HIV and AIDS. The provincial government saw my passion and they invited me to join the Provincial Organizing Committee tasked to organize activities of International Women’s Day’s in March last year. Because of my presence the meetings started with and ended with prayer. And because of my presence the Committee recognized the need for Biblical teaching on morality during the celebration. I was given the task to plan for this activities and I mobilized the churches in the Jubilee Centre Network and went into the markets to preach the gospel, and share on the importance of abstinence. I also organized the women drama group from the churches to come share the hope we have in Christ to over 3000 people on a single day.
I have passed the training I learnt in Strategic planning to others churches in my denomination. My Bishop who at first thought I was up to nothing good, because of my commitment and drive to see that all our churches articulate the vision and strategy to the members now recognizes me as one of his key leaders. All this happened because of the lessons learnt that bringing change in not easy but we must do it with gentleness and patience.

Thank you to each one of you who has been part of this transformation journey that is changing the way I do church and live my Christian life.
Academic Essay
I have been hoping and planning to earn an Honours in Business Management for the past 3 years since when I started studying Business Management with the Association of Business Executives (ABE) 
and am excited to now be on the cusp of making that dream a reality. I’ve come a long way from the painfully studying in un electrified college, studying in candles, and managed to get distinctions. Through the challenges and goals I have set for myself I have grown into a confident, thoughtful, and respected leader at my workplace and in my personal life, and I know that these new skills will serve me well as I embark on this next scholastic challenge and the career I see before me in business management. .
I Have chosen this specific business management program because of its international focus, group work, emphasis on the business environment/ behaviour and it’s rich skills in being a successful entrepreneur. I see this as perfectly instep with my goal of pursuing a career in management consulting. Over the past few years I have overcome my shyness in the workplace and it is now commonplace for me to lead meetings and advise the CEO of the company I work for on the financial matters that are my sole responsibility and core strength. Continued group work with my fellow students from various backgrounds will serve to cement my new-found confidence in my own abilities and ideas. My interest in international business first sparked during my study with ABE at advanced Diploma.
If admitted to the program, I will bring with me my enthusiasm, dedication, and a stalwart work ethic. I am proud of what I have accomplished thus far in my life and see much of it as a stepping stone toward a successful future in the business world. I now need to expand my skill set beyond its current level and I see the curriculum offered at Leed Metropolitan University as the perfect way to do so.
Joke
A Drunkard got evicted from his house and sat outside the door then saw 3 bottles of mosi, 2 empty and 1 wasn’t. Got an empty bottle “you are the reason why am out here” *pwa!* he broke it. Looked at the other empty 1, “isakuno (come here), if I hadn’t bought you I would have paid rent” *pwa* he broke it and looked at the 1 with beer “iwe ikala apa, taufishibe” (you sit here, your are no involved in my rangles)
