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.
