"The River of Life"


As we live and die at the same time in the clocks bosom;
my experiences have transmuted to pearls of wisdom.
Sit with me here, near the river of life,
and see its futile reflections as seeds blossom, wither and perish.

Once I had shiny cheeks and pointed nipples I used to cherish.
See ,they are antiqued, flaccid with wrinkled faces.
Even my flatulence no longer adds its usual fragrances.
My teeth fall off and eating comes with its own challenges.
Don't worry my child, have no worries only wait and see, but live with pride as you age;
And never forget to smile with a happy face.

Empowering the Less Privileged:Give to Save a Life!

Pupils at the Baptist Vocational Institute

Ghana's Trokosi girls are abused, groaning, and crying for mercy. Literally!

In this practice, women and girls are subjected to harmful traditional practices which degrade them and are an infringement of their fundamental human rights.

Even children as young as age five, almost mostly girls, are not spared--parents or families offer these girls to village priests as sexual and/or domestic "wives to the gods" to a life of servitude, physical and sexual abuse and deprivation, simply to atone for a crime committed by a family member-this constitutes child marriage as these girls are married off before they turn 18 years.

Girls at the Baptist Vocational Institute are no exception-most of them were previously married off to pay for the sins of others.

Gospel dance group, Survivors4Christ, has selected the Baptist Vocational Institute, whose pupils mostly female, have previously experienced Trokosi and have been rescued, as its focus group for this year's Gospel Dance Merit (GDM) event, with the aim to help address some of the institute's education logistics challenges.

"Our first visit to the institute revealed heart wrenching and traumatic stories experienced by these girls", President of Survivors4Christ, Ruby Akyaa Asuming, told cmcghana.blogspot.com in an interview via what's app.

"Twenty-year old females, forced into marriage, with two or more children have been enrolled by the institute to help provide emotional, psychological, spiritual and vocational support to these girls", she added.

A gospel dance event which comes off Friday July 1, 2016, will be held with the principal aim to raise funds to support the ex-Trokosi girls at the institute.

Be part of this Holy Spirit, fun-packed and memorable life changing experience--join Survivors4Christ in this year's Gospel Dance Merit (GDM) event to help shape and develop a life.

Your 1.00 Ghana cedi and more can cause a change-be that person!

"Life after Life"

Life after Life!
The journey of life can be bitter
embittering even the purest souls--
stripping them of their remaining tattered pride,
causing some to backslide
from their quest to live better
above a million foul
yet that is no excuse


Tick tock, tick tock, times' riding a chariot unamused
while some fatten themselves for worms
somehow life would come to an end--on the other side many sons
of men are crying a river,
they would not be comforted
by thousand words sugared
to make what is sour sweet:
not when they're pain is beyond
the rich man who's fate was hell--
not a drop of water from Lazarus' side:
their supplications are made void


Perhaps your fate would be in glory
either ways it would be after this life
else why would a man toil in this life 
and later rob himself of eternity
with the Maker: that would be a pity
at the least worse above folly
