CYCLONE FREDDY IS GONE,ITS TIME TO REFRESH,FIND HOPE IN CHRIST AND MOVE ON.
Hebrews 13:8 JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY,TODAY AND FOREVER.
Though it's hard to believe but today Sunday 19th March will be the first Sunday to pray without them, some were worshipers,church leaders and devoted members of different churches, Most churches in Southern Malawi will be half and the church mood of dancing and smiling to each other will be missed for some Sundays, Cyclone Freddy has taken away the joy from the face of Malawi, Malawi can not withhold the tears of pain flooring the bruised cheeks by the merciless Cyclone Freddy , Sunday service will not be as usual, some are in camps, some are injured and are in hospitals, we will still give in and endure the pain today as we observe a minute of silence in rembering those who have lost their lives. We are not better than them who died,it's by grace that we can see today's sun. Our hope is in Christ Jesus and we are very much confident that the pain we are going through will draw us closer to the Lord and cement our father son relationship with the Lord. Our eyes are fixed unto a Jesus whose name is above all other names. We therefore refuse to be afraid of anything,we refuse to worry,we have chosen to cast our burden unto the Lord.
Church means an Assembly of believers, buildings just facilitate the gatherings but it's wrong to call a building a church, Church is an Eklezia which means gathering of people people who believe in Christ , Church is not church without people, we need people. Pastors duty is to shepherd the sheep, A pastor is not a Pastor without people. It's sad that we can lose others in an overnight like this. But we pray that the Holy spirit (the comforter) should comfort those who have lost relatives.
We never expected to lose our relatives and friends in this way, we never expected our friends to lose their hard earned property in this way, if we had power to stop it as a nation we could all stand up
