I read an article that was screaming ‘Chiyangwa’s daughter in sex-toy scandal’ This is in present day Zimbabwe! I’m seriously (#LookingForWords). I found myself reading, not because I think that this is a serious issue but just to see just HOW this article was written because lately, we’ve been flooded by poorly written articles that would find a more eager audience on some back door Google page 226 site on soft porn than in a national newspaper!
What are in quotes are the words I took directly out of the article.
“Secretary to the Censorship Board, Isaac Chiranganyika told Standardlife&style that they had not cleared anyone in Zimbabwe to sell sex toys or to hold auctions or any activities that promoted sexual activities.”

“Anyone who wants to do that business should first bring them [toys]…

Jesus comes for each man, woman and child. Every person is precious. Our sin may separate us from others. Jesus Christ seeks every heart. Sin has been dealt with on the cross, completely and surely. We are loved down to the deepest fiber of our being.
Sometimes cultures create categories of sin. But handling sin without the protective gloves of the Holy Spirit will only contaminate us, no matter what the sin. Taking precautions we should help each other find freedom, not condemnation.
The sin maybe adultery, drunkenness, stealing, hatred, or murder. It could be cheating on our income taxes. It could even be homosexuality. But only God’s love can be trusted to forgive and restore us. A repentant heart is all it takes. Why not ask Him to show you how to repent? Jesus told the woman who had committed adultery:
“No, Lord,” she said. And Jesus said, “Neither…

The Legacy of President Mugabe and Vignettes from a Chinese Philosopher
Posted: October 11, 2013 in Uncategorized
I am often asked by colleagues and friends, especially those who don’t live in Zimbabwe, what I think about President Mugabe. To most people he is either a cruel despot who ruined Zimbabwe and uses unorthodox means to say in power or he is a brilliant leader, a very intelligent and dedicated Pan-Africanist who has beaten the whites at their own game.
I think most people want to hear my views because of my somewhat unique perspective- I am a Pan-Africanist yet I don’t support ZANU PF. I am a member of the MDC-T and I am convinced that most of Zimbabwe’s current problems are a result of ZANU PF’s rule- in particular its intolerance, corruption, incompetence and resistance to change.
However the good the party and president Mugabe have done cannot be gainsaid. While he is blamed for many things like Gukurahundi, hyperinflation, political intolerance, violence and others he…

A must read……..
As stumbling and struggling believers in God’s grace, we gather in a simple circle and wonder out loud. There are many things that perplex us. We share notes and try to make sense of our Father’s sovereignty and grace. Sometimes, it seems He is out to get us. I remember reading a saint, she said something like, “[God] no wonder you have so many enemies, when you treat your friends so shoddily.” (You can tell that I’m working on my attitude here.)
But it isn’t that he is out to “get” us. It is more like he is out to “make” us. A distraught woman who just lost her children in a house fire sobbed bitterly. It was obvious that she was completely broken and shattered. She turned to a close friend, “What is God doing to me?” Her dear friend, an older saint, quietly spoke with a profound wisdom. “Honey…

Lord God, you have placed me in your church.
You know how unsuitable I am. Were it not for your guidance I would have brought everything to destruction. I wish to give my heart and mouth to your service. I desire to teach your people, and long to be taught your work.
Use me as your workman, dear Lord. Do not forsake me; for if I am alone I shall bring all to nought. Amen.

Chinamasa smiles all the way to London, leaving Mugabe in the cold
Posted: April 3, 2013 in Uncategorized
The last two weeks have been dominated by discussions over crucial and interesting developments in Zimbabwe’s political landscape. The European Union removed 81 members of Mugabe’s ZANU PF party from the sanctions list. This was followed by a three member team of Zimbabwe’s ruling coalition visiting London to attend a meeting organised by the Friends of Zimbabwe countries. For some, including myself, the removal of Mugabe’s people from the sanctions list was a major milestone for Zimbabwe not because the violence has stopped or the fact that this removal was motivated by what “Friends of Zimbabwe” termed a largely peaceful referendum but
because for so long, Zimbabweans have been held hostage by ZANU PF who hid behind these sanctions. For too long now we have witnessed a complete refusal by ZANU PF to abide to the rule of law because of the economic sanctions that were levelled against them by…

The elitist constitutional breakthrough is far from answers to solve Zimbabwe’s problems.
While I appreciate the said constitutional breakthrough by the Global Political Agreement principals, I have reservations that the move was elitist. Zimbabweans spent more than three years collecting important information about how they wish to be governed and their wishes were expected to be put in a referendum without alterations. According to the MDCs earlier statements, there were not supposed to be any negotiations about altering the draft constitution. To my surprise, the very MDCs that many support have come out in support of an altered document, calling the move a major success in history. I may agree that there were compromises made
from all political parties involved but I find it rather disgusting that once again, we have allowed the country’s principals to decide
what is important or not on their own. Others may celebrate the breakthrough as…

“Oh foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you…” Gal 3:1
Morgan Tsvangirai is a man of doubtful democratic credentials. One would have hoped for some redeeming qualities. There are none. He has no grand vision apart from toppling our dearest Mad Bob. He is no orator. Neither is he a strategist. Some generous critics have called him “sincere but misdirected,” other are not as kind and use less colourful terms. My views on Morgan are well known and I will not tire you by repeating what has been said elsewhere. Instead of attacking Morgan Tsvangirai, I think our sword is better directed at those who have made the naked man king, Zimbabweans.

I have written a letter to Juba touching specifically on the challenges faced by today’s youths and why it is so important for our current African leaders to engage young fresh blood in the development process.
I also encourage you to write one such letter to the people of South Sudan, who recently gained independence, expounding what it is that you believe can bring change to our newly born African nation.
Together we can make Africa a better place for you, for me our future generation and the rest of the world……..
Help fight Xenophobia and Deportation of Asylum seekers, Refugees and Immigrants. Together we can defeat Xenophobia! SUPPORT, DON’T DEPORT!!!!!!
So my dear friends will be leaving Cape Town and driving up to Juba, South Sudan’s capital. En route to Juba they will drive through South Africa, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda. The journey will take three months.
Along the way they will engage as many people as they can in each country; they are aiming for 900 (100 in each country). Teachers, artists, students, doctors, elders, refugees, priests, politicians, farmers, beggars, academics, journalists, dissidents and whoever else wants to share their thoughts with them. see more details…….
