Family of love

Family of love

Sunday 29/12/2013
Readings : Sirach 3:2-6,12-14 Psalm 128:1-2, 3, 4-5 Colossians 3:12-21
Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23

Underlying the wisdom offered in the Christmas period is the mystery
of the family in God’s divine plan. At the beginning of the world, God
established the family in the “marriage” of Adam and Eve, the two
becoming one body (Genesis 2:22-24). Now in the new creation, Christ
is made “one body” with His bride, the Church, as today’s Epistle
indicates (see Ephesians 5:21-32).By this union we are made God’s
chosen ones, holy and beloved. And our families are to radiate the
perfect love that binds us to Christ in the Church.

“Wives, be subject to your husbands, as you should in the Lord.
Husbands, love your wives and do not be sharp with them.” (Colossians
3:19) clearly stipulates the relationship of wife and husband. On the
other hand, children born out of families have responsibilities, “Long
life comes to anyone who honours a father, whoever obeys the Lord
makes a mother happy.” While parents are expected to treat their
children with affection. “Parents, do not irritate your children or
they will lose heart.”(Colossians 3:21).

We are called upon to renew our commitment to our God-given duties as
spouses, children and parents and perform these duties with love. As
the chosen of God, then, the holy people whom he loves, you are to be
clothed in heartfelt compassion, in generosity and humility,
gentleness and patience.” Bear with one another; forgive each other if
one of you has a complaint against another. The Lord has forgiven you;
now you must do the same. Over all these clothes, put on love, the
perfect bond. And may the peace of Christ reign in your hearts;
because it is for this that you were called together in one body.”

Sons Of women

Sons Of women
its been seven years of editing and rewriting and finally the book is out. I started of in 2007 after school and here i i am with my second publication. Thank you God for making this dream come true.

"A life without gates but enclosed by involvement in a cult way after school days. A love tangle between father, son and Son. The power of woman and love leaves people free to live and love. Careers guide it all in pursuit of wealth. But who is the smartest? Benja’s life grows from grim while Sons gets grimmer by the pains caused by their father. It’s a lovely interaction with life after high school."

Becoming Greater In God

Becoming Greater In God

The person who turns to God does not become smaller but greater, for through God and with God he becomes great, he becomes divine, he becomes truly himself. The person who puts himself in God's hands does not distance himself from others, withdrawing into his private salvation; on the contrary, it is only then that his heart truly awakens and he becomes a sensitive, hence, benevolent and open person. This is a lesson to learn from the Divine assignment given to Mary.
The closer a person is to God; the closer he is to people. We see this in Mary. The fact that she is totally with God is the reason why she is so close to human beings. In her, God has impressed his own image, the image of the One who follows the lost sheep even up into the mountains and among the briars and thorn bushes of the sins of this world, letting himself be spiked by the crown of thorns of these sins in order to take the sheep on his shoulders and bring it home.
Mary thus stands before us as a sign of comfort, encouragement and hope. She turns to us, saying: "Have the courage to dare with God! Try it! Do not be afraid of him! Have the courage to risk with faith! Have the courage to risk with goodness! Have the courage to risk with a pure heart! Commit yourselves to God, then you will see that it is precisely by doing so that your life will become broad and light, not boring but filled with infinite surprises, for God's infinite goodness is never depleted!".

On this Feast Day, let us thank the Lord for the great sign of his goodness which he has given us in Mary, his Mother and the Mother of the Church. Let us pray to him to put Mary on our path like a light that also helps us to become a light and to carry this light into the nights of history.

Global citizen

Global citizen

They have their way all over the world,

In Africa they will not be prosecuted

For eating tourists attractions

In Asia they do not miss beef or pork

In Sahara they will not miss fish

And in pacific they will not miss snakes

They really enjoy eating green

With purple from (purple cabbage)  

With yellow from pumpkin

With orange from carrots

They rarely miss eating white

They love the earth

A source of all their funfull stomachs

Be it green beans

Or beautifull broccoli

Or round

While some are sweet others are tasteless

While some are bitter others are flavourless

But eaten by global citizens

i just created a new blog but my articles at Jacquelinewords.wordpress.com are still available.
I am a creative writer with five manuscripts, one published poem and i guarantee you a post everday

My darling 50 Coin

My darling 50 Coin

It is is yet another time to say good bye to you

I loved you as ndururu(five cents) and appreciated your value

Even if your heart is broken and long gone

But king’otore(tencents)) has taken over

My love for you

Kingotore(tencents) I will never forget you

The way I used to buy bread with you

But gathumuni (fifty cents)has come my way

And I can buy sweets with her

Bob (one shilling) has come, all round

Without any piercing unlike you

She is made of stainless steel

As time goes by her size is redusing

Even after giving birth to the tiny five bob(kamwala)

She keeps on shinning I can see her from far

Kinde (ten shillings) is made of my two previous darlings

Inside is my new darling and outside is my old silver

Another bi-metallic lady is in the hood

She is a combination too

Hers are bigger just like her name,

 mbao(twenty shillings)

She is shinning on the outside

Her sweetness is hidden inside the dark copper

Due to my love for old she does not last longer

There is a bigger kinde that I have given a real name,

 kilucy(fourty shillings)

She can do much more than all my combinations ans she is bigger

She is going to get another whos has no competition

Her’s is not copper nor silver

She has gone through fire

But she is still shinning

I do not know where to keep her

Because her finge (fifty shillings)value is not much

But her golden nature is worth dying

Come baby come and fill my pockets

Marry your money

Marry your money
Call customer care of your bank
Ask him to take the phone to your sweetheart
Because she is not picking your call
Talk to your girl
Because you love her more than me
If she does not speak
Send her an sms asking her to talk
Marry your money please
Because she  will be such a sweet darling
She will never ask nor answer your questions
She will be there even when you don’t need her
When she is done with you, will you marry?
Anorther man will take her
With all her belongings
She will learn to lover her new catch
She will transfer all her worth to him
She will always be in your mind and out of your hand
As you chase her in the arms of another
