Nashukuru Mungu bado niko hai mikononi mwa hawa wapendwa baada ya masaa 24. Siku moja watamwabudu Mungu wa Kwatemba. Si rahisi kuaminiwa na Mungu, nashukuru maana Mungu amepima uwezo wangu na kiwango cha uvumilivu jinsi alivyo mwamini Ayub. Wimbo wa Bertha Mulengeki - Ameniamini umejaa moyoni mwangu ninapofunga kwa lazima. Endeleeni kurusha mishale kwa maombi. Mungu anajibu maombi. Ahsante kwa maombi, nina ujasiri katika kristo
