The ‘Ken iti Na’ podcast

What are you looking for?

Tomorrow I become a woman, wow, what a book. The author was incredibly honest. I cried so hard while reading this book, for women and all the battles they fight alone, for women who come from homes were they aren’t supported and protected, for women who suffer in the most abusive marriages, for women in Nigeria and the crazy expectations society places on you, even in 2025. Jesus asked the two disciples of John who followed him, what it was they were looking for. And that is His question to all of us today. What are you looking for? This is a question that requires deep reflection and honesty. Are you really looking for Jesus for who He is? For a relationship with Him? 🕯️Bible verse of the week: •“So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭31‬-‭34‬ ‭NIV‬‬ 📌Quote of the week: Suffering lived with Christ is a door to heaven; Suffering lived alone is a door to hell. -A line from the movie- ‘Padre Pio’.

Do you know?

Do you know that you are loved completely? God will never show you gold and give you silver dear friends. •“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” ‭‭-Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭20‬-‭21‬ ‭NIV‬‬ This is a public episode.

The desert and trust.

Many, if not all seasons of life, call and invite us to deep trust of the One whom we call Lord and Saviour. We are called to trust more in His strength than ours. We are called to trust more in His intelligence than ours. We are called to trust more in His wisdom than ours. We are called to trust more in His provision than the wealth we supposedly have. We are called to trust more in His knowledge of the future than our own plans. We are called to trust God deeply. We are not on earth to stay; we are pilgrims, pilgrims of hope. And pilgrims are people on a journey. Pilgrims are people who need to trust deeply and fully because they do not know what tomorrow will bring. So may God help us to trust in Him and Him alone. He is the only One who satisfies. Wherever this letter may find you, I want to remind you of God’s love for you and His compassion towards you. He is not unaware of your struggles or your battles. He sees you, He hears you and He can be trusted. You are in safe hands. I’m rooting for you! This is a public episode.

I’m competing in the greater Olympics

The Olympic Games are the biggest sporting competition in the world. Just as an actor strives to excel in his craft so as to win an Oscar, an award considered the greatest when it comes to film, so an athlete strives to excel in his sport so he can one day compete in the Olympic Games alongside outstanding athletes from other nations. And they do this for a medal, a crown that will not matter in eternity but as Christians, our crown will matter in eternity. Eternal life with Christ, our crown and price, will be worth it. At the end of our lives, may we win in the greater Olympics. Amen. •“Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” ‭‭-Psalms‬ ‭90‬:‭12‬ ‭NIV‬‬ This is a public episode.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!💃🤩🥳🎉🎄🎄🎄 Don’t forget that when you have Christ, you have everything. Merry Christmas once again. May the joy of this season remain with us forever. Amen. 🕯Bible verse of the week: * “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” -Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬ 🖋Quote of the week: I’m so glad Jesus was born in a stable. Because my soul is so much like a stable. It’s poor and in unsatisfactory condition- Yet I believe that if Jesus can be born in a stable, Maybe He can be born in me. -Dorothy Day.
