I THANK GOD FOR SAVING MY LIFE
By Lenny

Shadrack Okindo Lenny

I have been in the music industry for 7 years, working for the devil. I had a lot of money and used to entertain people, but the money was not accomplishing anything in my life. The way I feel now is not how I used to feel in the world. I had so many friends who used to tell me to get saved, like roughtone, Omachichi, but I didn't believe that there was a God, and that people could go to Church to pray to Him. I used to spend my money in drinking and smoking

But I know God still had a purpose with my life since I still used to do things like going to the children's home and visiting prisoners like in Shimo La Tewa and Kilifi Prison which now I know was a virtue from God. Quarrelling with my wife and beating her was a common thing and most certainly my whole life was in darkness.

It was on the 25h of February that my big journey started. I came to Nairobi from Mombasa for two things, a music video and Coca Cola pop stars where I was selected number two and chosen to go to colleges, home boys production for Dis. While at Carnivore for the Mzee Tamaa fund raising, my head started aching badly. I thought taking a lot of beer would help and I drunk a total of 10 bottles of Guinness. Finally without any avail, I decided to go and I was escorted by Tabo Susa a promoter. He dropped me a little, far away from my home and when I was walking home, I met some thieves who actually told me if I don't give them money, they will go with my heart.

So they took my passport and tore it in front of me, and they also took my boots and money. When I reached home the guy who I was living with told me that it must be a demon that followed me Tanzania when I went there or it must be somebody from Mombasa bewitching me. All this he said considering that the previous week when coming from Nakuru, I almost had an accident. In Nakuru, I met a taxi driver who preached to me although he was drunk and told me God wants me and my talents. The trailor was about to hit us head on, when I shouted in Kiswahili "Mungu wangu" and the drunk driver awoke from his sleep. The driver was one of my friends who took me from the taxi driver and carried me in their vehicle so that I don't get saved. They were Gidi Gidi and Maji Maji.

When my friend whom I was living with suggested those were 'demons' he told me the next day I would have to buy 6 red candle and 6 black candles for exhortism. That night, the Lord Jesus visited me and saved my life. I dreamt of a huge man but not clearly a map, wearing white clothes and very many little children around his big throne praying to Him. While still pondering what it meant, one of kids took me and told me we go and pray. Then, the child took me to church, a very big church, and told me to pray after him a small pray. On saying amen, I woke up and explained my dream to my legio maria friend who showed me out.

That morning the voice of the Lord told me to go either to Pastor Muiru's or Pastor Margaret's Church and get saved. At Pastor Muiru's , they told me he's not coming upto ……. and when I asked them about Madam but Bishop then gave me the directions. I came upto JIAM and was well received by a brother called Samson who then introduced me to Paul Akhonya because bishop Margaret was not around and I had purposed to be saved. I talked to Paul and told him I want to get saved and immediately I felt all confusion leave my life and the peace of God in me.

Since then, I have not missed church and although some of my producers are calling me, I have decided to live for Jesus and serve him with my acting, composing advertisements and singing talents. I thank God for saving my life.

Since I got saved I don't have any form of income and I have refused to produce the circular music and resigned even from big companies in Germany like Fiado Sony production Company. I promised my wife to support her financially and I am having difficulties in this.

I kindly request the Church to assist me in any way because even food is a problem and I also want to go back to my wife in Mombasa. I know that my God will one-day open ways for me because He is the one who brought me to this Church. Please if I can be assisted, then I will be greatful. Thank you and God bless you. Yours,

SHANDRACK OKINDO - formerly Mr. King Lennie producing songs like Holahola, come together, baby don't go.
