It really touched mee!!

@@Nouuuu211 My companion and I absolutely loved it! One of the most beautiful countries I’ve been too so far! And thank you for that correction. The media notes the event as the Rwandan Genocide but it is beautiful to hear the correct title from a Rwandan. I definitely want to be as respectful as possible when addressing the horrific event. I’ll definitely look into the movie Shooting Dogs as well! Do you recommend any books about this written by Rwandans ? I did get a chance to visit two of the memorials which gave me more insight. I do have a question… outside of the museums, are locals open to discussing the history and effects ? I thought that people didn’t discuss it in public ? Please let me know your thoughts! Thank you again for your comment ❤️

@@MightyIntellectual thank you for being so kind and interested in our country. To answer your questions, the reason why we refute the “Rwandan Genocide” terminology is because it negates the fact that the targets where Tutsis and contrary to most genocides in the world, both the victims and perpetrators were both Rwandans, so to call it the Rwandan Genocide would make no sense (I hope this makes sense😅). Additionally, yes we have so many authors, documentaries and movies about the Genocide against the Tutsi to name a few books: Left to tell by Immaculée Ilibagiza, Inside the Hotel Rwanda by Edouard Kayihura, From red earth by Denise Uwimana and machete season by Jean Hatzfield. Movies alongside shooting dogs are sometimes in April, The 600 (available on youtube) and The day God walked away. Lastly, yes the people are open to discuss their experiences, every April in Rwanda, we commemorate and victims tell their testimonies, as you can imagine it’s been less than 30 years and people’s wounds are still very open and even more so that like I said both Hutus and Tutsis were Rwandans so to restructure the country a lot of forgiveness had to be worked for both people to live together again hence why we don’t refer to anyone as part of a group anymore and only identify as Rwandans. If you talk to some people and they seem reserved, it’s only because of how heavy the history is but otherwise, we are very open to say the reality of what happened especially because the west (especially France and Belgium) has tried so much to deny the Genocide and push their own narrative because of their huge influence in what happened and the fact they did nothing to stop it until the RPA (current day RPF) ended the Genocide. I know this was very long to read but I hope I was able to provide more insight.

I’m glad you enjoyed it!! 💕

No thank youuu for tuning in!!

Congratulationssss I’m so happy for youuu whoop whooopp a lot of folks stay in East Legon but honestly everywhere. If you haven’t already, join the African Americans in ghana Facebook group! You can connect with folks there.

@@MightyIntellectual niceeee can you send me the link? And oh yeah I stay in east legon hills that’s where my apartment is

Thank you so much for staying subscribeddd! ❤️ I’ll be posting more.

Love it :)

Chile I am soooo with you, I think the organic food is not that organic lol I've been vegetarian since 2020 and I still don't feel satisfied with the way the food here makes me feel compared to my time Ghana. I also noticed that the foods that are supposedly 0 sugar, taste like they have sugar. So my question is why are we adding additional sugar to the food? Why doesn't this country want us to be at the least physically healthy?

thanks for watching lovley!!

That's good! What is it that we fear though if we say we have all of this faith in Jesus?

@@MightyIntellectual We have fear, because we are not protected by the armor of God, because we say we have faith, but we do not practice the works of faith, a faith without works is dead

Graciasss this video is ages old!

Hey sis! I love that you mention gratefulness. A grateful heart is one that can be blessed with more! One thing I try to do when I find myself comparing my life to others is jotting down everything that I DO have and IS going well for me - down to the simplest things like I can see the wind blowing the trees. Spending time in nature and realizing that some people can't walk how you can, see as clear as you can etc. When we try to remind ourselves that the simple things are gifts from God, that helps the mood shift! Additionally, serving others in some way may be a great way to express gratitude and shift. Yes to he can't trust us with more if we aren't showing him we can properly steward over what we have right now. Taking inventory of our lives and jotting down what we have - that could be creative ideas we never act on, savings/new income coming in, natural talents that come easy to us like writing, dancing, building relationships with children, etc. - taking inventory of those things and figuring out if we have truly used those blessings to the best of our abilitiy. If the answer is NO, which it typically is lol there lies our work!!! MY PRAYER FOR US - God, please show us what we have that we are not using and/or stewarding to the best of our ability. Help us see what you see in us. Give us the ability to maximize this thing in this season so we can be prepared for more! Remind us that comparison is unfair because the blessings and callings you have for OUR lives are completely different from the next person. We are in different lanes. We can not compare what is incomparable. Amen!

yess GWORL, I love the Bible project!! A few friends put me on to it this past year and it helps me tremendously with general context of the books before I start reading which further helps my own thought processes while I'm reading. Get into itttt

You are so welcome!!! ❤️❤️

awh shucks...

When Travis Greene preaches he says "you got to read the Bible, then you got to READ the Bible" and man!!! That is a WORD. When you READ the Bible that second, third, fourth and fifth go round, I am certain New understanding takes place. If he is to trust us with more, we definitely have to steward over what has already been given. And sometimes (read: oftentimes) we get in our OWN way. Sometimes we need strength and discipline our flesh can't provide and that is where the faith and prayer comes in - God can you give me strength, discipline and new thought processes I can't necessarily give myself in this season? Thank you for tapping in! I enjoyed reading your thoughts :)

@@MightyIntellectual and thank you. I enjoy the revelations you give to me. Reading the Bible does come with MEDITATION afterwards and I’m realizing that that’s where the revelation comes sometimes. God is such a mystery man 😂. Also I appreciate the time you take to respond. Making these videos is something I would like to continue doing also but I be torn. So keep this territory you got going on RUclips and I know God got you. …….. ummm 🤔…… btw…. Your beautiful, very! Excuse me if I’m outta line for that 😔😔.

I'm sooo happy my thoughts in the video resonated with you!

Just WOW. "I gave you life - you wasted it and thew it away and expected to receive new life?" That was good! I love how you applied the scripture to our bodies/temples. That could also be a separate conversation!!!! He loves and forgives us but requires much of us at the same time. It is not enough to say "God will just forgive me." The comparison to our earthly parents was a great visual for me as well so thank you! If we can think of God as a parent, I think that will help many folks' understanding/making sense of what is going on in their lives. Thank you so much for sharing!

Thank you lovely!

one moe time: GOD IS INCREDIBLE!!!!
