FACE THE CRISIS OF LIFE WITH LOVE


"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

Should a believer face a crisis in the same way as a non-believer? Every day I log into my Facebook account, I see condolences on friends' timelines accompanied by sad memes and fingers directed at God. Others question God, asking why He permits some beloved individuals to die. This phenomenon, which is not only displayed on social media, is even done by devout believers of all kinds who ought to exhort rather than break down when confronted with a life crisis.

In light of this, let us turn to the Word of God for guidance. Paul's words in Romans 8:28 give us assurance: "All things work together for good to those who love Him." This promise holds for all believers, regardless of the severity and sensitivity of the crisis they are facing. Crisis is part of life's struggle, and everyone will have to face it. All things—good or bad, peaceful or conflictual, death or life—have a purpose crafted by God to occur.

So, how should we respond to a life crisis? Instead of blaming God, others, or circumstances for the crises you encounter, trust in God's love and assurance of the good things that await you. Let us face crises with faith and love, knowing God is working everything out for our benefit. Place your trust in His goodness and sovereignty, and together, let us navigate life's challenges with hope and confidence.

Think about it

Is there anything in your life that is making you question God's love and His promise of good things? How do you plan to face life's challenges without Him? Can you see God's love and assurance even amid a crisis?

Now, pray.

Dear God, I acknowledge my weaknesses and doubts about Your goodness in times of crisis. I know You are sovereign and capable of helping me. I trust in Your promise of good things, and I ask for faith to believe in Your love, even when faced with life's crises. Help me to love and trust You more and deeper, no matter what comes my way.

Amen.

Ayella John Bosco

MAGWI COUNTY UNDER CATTLE ATTACKS AGAIN.

    File Image July 11, 2025. To the Commissioner,  Magwi County Magwi County Maize Crops under Cattle Attack Again I am writing to inform you that Magwi County is once again facing an attack by cattle driven by the Dinka Balalo of Uganda. This is a direct result of an evacuation in response to the President's executive order aimed at stopping cattle-related conflicts in the Acholi region of Northern Uganda. As you may recall, the last conflict in Magwi County, which occurred in February, claimed lives and was not an isolated incident. Similar conflicts have recurred since 2014, when the Dinka Balalo from Bor forcefully entered Magwi County and the Equatoria region. Hon, you and the Magwi County community need to be aware of the potential resettlement of cattle in our lands. Our county's livelihood depends on its fertile soil, whereas the Dinka Balalo's survival relies on milk production. I urge you and your security team to remain vigilant and prevent any cattle ...

IN HIS FOOTSTEPS: The Characters of A Leader's Heart

Meta AI "This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work." 1 Timothy 3:1-7 Devotion 10. July 10, 2025 God's Design for Leadership   God alone is omniscient and sovereign. He designed leadership with specific character traits, appointing humanity to steward the world on His behalf. As we progress through Scripture, we observe God's design for leadership and the character traits required of each individual.   For example, He denied Saul leadership despite the pressure from the people. He chose David from among Jesse's children because David met His criteria, possessing the character and qualities worthy of leadership. In leadership, there are specific characteristics that leaders must embody to lead God's people. Paul listed these qualities in his letter to Timothy, emphasizing integrity, humility, and servanthood as essential for leading the church of God.   The Contrast Between God's Design and the Worl...

ESTABLISH A SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT DINKA KINGDOM WITHIN THEIR TERRITORIES.” Advocate Kenyi Advises President Kiir

Advocate & human rights lawyer Kenyi YA Kenyi said that Salva Kiir has long abandoned the national interest of South Sudan and instead chosen to pursue a narrow and divisive tribal agenda. From the time he was appointed deputy—based on tribal considerations—during the liberation struggle to all his subsequent roles within the regime, Kiir has consistently implemented policies that prioritize the interests of one ethnic group: the Jieng (Dinka), at the direct expense of the other 63 tribes of South Sudan.   Through his actions and appointments, he has systematically planted the seeds of division, ethnic discord, and mistrust among our people. Under his leadership, South Sudan—a sovereign nation built by the collective sacrifice of 64 tribes—has been reduced to what increasingly appears to be an absolute Jieng Kingdom, with Salva Kiir acting as its self-declared King.   If Kiir remains committed to advancing his tribal project, then we are left with no option but to gran...
