Psalm 92:1 It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; v2 To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, and Your faithfulness every night.  v4 For You, Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands. 

Beloved, the events of the last week in the USA have sent shockwaves around the world. The principalities of violence surrounding elections in the country are still very entrenched.  I can remember well the assassination of President Kennedy in 1963, the exact place and time the announcement came over the intercom at our school. These kind of shakings stick in a person's memory.  Some have criticized former President Trump's response in giving thanks to God for sparing his life, leading him through the valley of the shadow of death.  When a person stares death in the face and lives to tell about it, it is easy to give thanks to God. Only by the grace of God do any of us live to see another day, that day is not promised to us.  The Apostle Paul says, "in everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."  (1 Thess. 5:18}  Now is the time to get right with the Lord, if there ever was a time.  Today is the day of salvation.  At Gather the Outcasts Ministry here in Kenya, we have an urgency and responsibility to share the good news of the gospel with as many people as possible. That is our motivation, and also our reward.  To see people come to know Jesus Christ as Lord is the most fulfilling calling of any on earth. Can you help us fulfill that mission here in Kenya and East Africa?  We have a vision to build a primary school in Makunda Village near our children's home , so we can educate children in a loving, Christian environment. Pray about your part in moving the kingdom of God forward in Africa.  May God bless you as you pray!
