Dangers of Bitterness


 If there is one thing the Word of God warns against – it is Bitterness.
 Bitterness has led to several failed marriages, several failed businesses, and several failed careers. 
 Hebrews 12:15 says “Looking Diligently lest any man fail of the Grace of God: lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled.”
 I recently bumped into a buddy of mine. He has been going through a very rough patch since 2012. As I engaged him a conversation, I sensed that he had become very bitter with everything and everyone. I told him to find out why his Wilderness Experience has been prolonged.
 A couple of years back I posted how I met a former colleague at the Weekly Review, and for more than 10 years, he had never settled at any job. Yet he was one of the best at the Weekly Review.
 I have met several people whose marriages have failed- and have become very bitter.
 I have met people that have been played in relationships, and have become very bitter
 I have met people who have been conned, and have become very bitter.
 Why is Bitterness dangerous- As the Bible says above “lest any root of Bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many are DEFILED”
 Bitterness eats you up. It eats up your opportunities. It eats up your potential.
 If you find yourself failing to get into another relationship after someone unfairly dumped you- check your level of Bitterness.
 If you find yourself unable to pick up in Business after someone led to your collapse- check your level of bitterness
 If you find yourself unable to get a new job after you were unfairly and maliciously sacked – check your level of bitterness.
 If you find yourself constantly fighting your wife or husband after he or she cheated on you, and repented. Check your level of bitterness.
 Kick it out of your life. Do not live life looking at the past, lest you become a pile of bitter salt.
 Live your life with Joy, accept that you were played, sacked, cheated on…… and move on seeking better and bigger opportunities for Love, Business and Employment. 
 You will be surprised how a change in attitude can greatly change your life.

MOURNING THE ONLY PRINCIPAL I KNEW

By Dr.Paul Bundi Karau I arrived at Kanyakine High School on 18th February 1999 a small village boy. I had never been to a boarding school, and certainly this is the furthest from home I had ever gone. The boys who were assigned to escort me to Mungania dorm looked at my stunted height and loudly wondered how I would survive in Beast's school.  "Who is Beast?" I asked in bewilderment. "You will know." Musyoki answered curtly. It didn't take me long to know who Beast was. The following day, as the 10 o'clock tea was being served, I heard a commotion, with boys leaving their tea and running helter-skelter towards the classrooms.  I was a fresh mono, so I didn't know what was happening. I ran along the pavement, and came upon a mighty man, who appeared to be adjusting his trousers. He yanked his belt and thrust one whip towards me. I had encountered Beast himself. He was tall, imposing, burly and endowed with a thunderous voice that could re...

Political Tumbocrats

*Political Tumbocrats* A political tumbocrat is a person who hangs around elected leaders to satisfy her/his personal greed. Tumbocrats sees a leader as a demigod whom they worship. The r bootlickers and sycophants of the highest order. Their work is to defend leaders and cheat public that something is happening. A tumbocrat has no values or morals. A tumbocrat is not interested with common good but personal good. A tumbocrat has no vision but appetite for being near high table of power  and feeding on crumbs.   Tumbocrats are greatest obstacles to development in our country. They protect the corrupt and shield the bad governance in so far as they get something to fill their tumbos. They are good and articulate in arguments but they lack the moral authority because they don't value truth. Every political leader is surrounded by tumbocrats. They are the noise makers in social media and around leaders defending them. They peddle lies en create propagandas . They confuse the publ...
