Christians have been advised to always use the sacrament of penance to strengthen their faith. Speaking during his Homily today at St. Augustine's Cathedral, Lodwar, Fr. John Kizito Manzi said that obedience and and doing God's will were paramount to leading good Christian life adding that God will never abandon those who obey Him.
Reminding the faithfuls on the call of the disciples, he said that all of the four disciples who were called first never asked Jesus questions but obeyed him and followed him immediately.
He further said that cost of discipleships entails sacrifice since one has to leave behind all she/he has in order to respond to the call of Jesus. He challenged the faithfuls to always be obedient to God's Call in their lives.
He urged Christians to make a contract with God just as they always make contracts in their various places of work and sign to implement the jobs as stipulated in their contract. He said that the work of Christ is known by all and that God knows them very well and does not need to sign any contract with them since they know everything about the job.
He said that because Christians know who Jesus is they can also transform the lives of others who do not know him by becoming towers of attractiveness to others, that they can change.
