Gospel artiste-cum-TV presenter Kambua turned a year older yesterday.

On her special day, Kambua revealed that she was grateful to God and was happy despite the many challenges that hit her this year.

Who's birthday is it?? MINE MINE MINE! I have to say, this year hit me with so many unexpected challenges- I honestly didn't think I would be strong enough to endure it, but I DID! Praise God💃🏽. I am so grateful to everyone who held me up this year. Everyone who prayed for me, sent me a word of encouragement, boldly stood by and for me, THANK YOU🙏🏽. Thank you for speaking victory into my life. 2018 has been one of the hardest adult years of my life, but I am thankful for GRACE. I'm now walking into a NEW year boldly, unafraid, older, stronger, fly-er😉, Thirty-favored, and just madly in love with Jesus my ROCK. Happy birthday to me! 🎉🎀

Kambua thanked everyone who showed love to her and her message read;

I would like to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. My day turned out so different than what I'd anticipated. I have eaten cake, received more flowers than the vases I own, gifts that have warmed my heart, messages that have left me in 😭, texts and calls that made me laugh😂 (non singing friends who belted out a tune for me lol), I have received hugs, prayers, just THANK YOU from the deepest part of my heart. I'm so blessed to see a new year and I'm exhaling as I enter into this new season. I love you all so much. I probably don't say it often enough. Thank you for doing this journey called life with me. Ok, thanks for listening to my TED talk💁🏽‍♀️. And Jesus- thank you. Thank you 🎀🎉
