Dorcas Rigathi on her part, noted that it is easy to focus on the challenges and circumstances around us and lose sight of a believer’s core principle.

Today, my family and I choose to give a prayer of thanksgiving, understanding that God remains sovereign, whether He saves us from fire or not, Daniel 3:16-18. We give thanks to God for His awesome faithfulness.
We call Him, Ebenezer, for this far we celebrate Him and we have seen His mercy and experienced His goodness. Glory and honour be to His Holy name,” she added.
