Local News - 02.03.2014 - By Mary Tioko - Do not put God in second place in your lives, Christians told



St, Augustine Lodwar Cathedral parishioners have been cautioned against letting God play second place in their lives by over relying on their own individual efforts to meet their existential needs.
In his homily during Sunday mass, the assistant parish priest Fr. Thomas Kimeu told the faithful to be careful not to fall in the trap of seeking to amass wealth to the point of worshiping
material possessions t the expense of the Almighty God.
Referring to the Scripture reading taken from the Gospel of St. Mathew, Father Kimeu said some Christians have become too busy seeking after wealth and forget God as if God who is their creator does not know they have needs.
Father Kimeu likened the life of emptiness for those who have shunned God in their lives and for whom going to church or small Christian community meetings looks like a waste of time for them.The priest also cautioned those who worry too much about their lives that however much they worry they cannot increase an iota of their body physical length neither can they change the texture of their hair.“ You worry too much about your life as though on your last day you will bribe death when it knocks on your door “said Father Kimeu.
Father Kimeu advised the faithful to allow God to be the almighty Father in their lives and added God will bless them by providing for all the material needs they require in their lives.
