My World Tuesday
Ni Wewe Bwana (It is You Lord)
This is a lovely gospel song sung in Swahili and has special meaning for me. It is special because on my first trip to Kenya a group of orphans encircled me and sang this lovely song. It really touched me. No one translated the song for me at that time. Though I could not speak Swahili I knew it was a worship song unto God. I tried to track the song down for a long time. Every time I would ask a Kenyan friend, no one would know which song I was trying to recollect. I only knew the words "Ni wewe bwana" and decided to search on YouTube when I couldn't get any of my friends to help me find the song. Guess what, I found it! (Update: It has already been some years since I found it and had a Tanzanian friend translate it for me.) The version I'm sharing is the same song but this one on the video is sung to a slightly faster beat. It is sung by well known (now deceased) Tanzanian Gospel singer, Fanuel Sedekia. This song gives me joy and lifts me u
To me that is a very unusual cloud formation.... is it of any particular significance?
ReplyDeleteLovely way you've captured it, with the contrast of the trees and clouds.
Blessings - Jan
Thank you for your nice comment........and your photo looks amazing with the clouds and tree. thanks for sharing :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - just love those fluffy clouds !
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the sky with a hope for sunshine.
ReplyDeleteHope your dreams of Kenya come true real soon. There is a lady from my church that spends a great deal of her time in Kenya as a den mother at 'Into Abba's Arms' orphange. Sever youth have made mission trips there for a life changing experience. I too, dream of going and spreading love and hope.
Thanks for the visit and have a happy week ;-)
very nice formation of the clouds behind the tree, you cna also post this for Skywatch Friday I guess.
ReplyDeleteOooo, nice cloud shot! Beautiful.

I must admit that, living in an arid land, I enjoy a few days of overcast weather ... only a few days though, too much cloudiness depresses me after awhile ...

ReplyDeleteBeautiful;) Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteHi Jan, the clouds are not really that unusual here. We often get a lot of low lying cloud though this is the first time I've seen "fluffy" ones that cover a large range and clearer skies above.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words Erica.
ReplyDeleteLynda, I love fluffy clouds too :-)
ReplyDeleteCandy, thank you for stopping by. Your words and well wishes really touched me. I hope you do get to experience your trip of a lifetime. God bless xx
ReplyDeleteLindz, thank you for dropping by. I may take up your suggestion or I may use a new photo :-)
ReplyDeleteDarrel and Ruth, thank you for dropping by and leaving your nice comment ;-)
ReplyDeleteSylvia K, how nice to hear from you. Since you live just south of me, I'm sure we are sharing in the same weather pattern. I've found it coldish of late. Unfortunately we got even more rain today though at least the sun came out for a bit too.
ReplyDeleteOne Stoned Crow, you wouldn't know it with all my comments about wanting sunshine but I actually love rain. I just get tired of it as we got a lot of it all winter and now all Spring. Hopefully that will change soon as it does get depressing for sure when you have little sunshine. It is always nice when you get a balance of wet and dry though these days that is seemingly harder to get where even in parts of Africa they are getting more rain than usual.
ReplyDeleteThat is one awesome picture!!!
ReplyDelete@ Ruby, thank you for dropping by. I hope your flowers continue to be happy. Happy WT to you too.
