Among these faces is a child I personally found deep in the forests of the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro. He was said to be disabled. Just 3 years old at the time, he's now 9 or 10, his birthday is unknown, unfortunately.
Indeed, he couldn't stand and acted impaired when I met him. In a mud hut with the hall mark yellow eyes of his alcoholic grandparents. His mum had abandoned him sadly.
After returning to the village with him, we realised his feet were full of jiggers, a type of parasite, very painful with it. However, the stunning thing was that we also watched his impairment disappear and be replaced by extremely irregular emotional behaviour. It took us some time and investigating, to realise what we'd just witnessed was a 3 year old sober up.
His grandparents had been giving him an alcoholic home brew made from banana, filling but alcoholic.
Every face is another story for me, and another blessed moment where the glory of God and the beauty of his children, be it those we help or you guys, the ones sent to help.
Iv done my best to protect and raise these children as a man. It's not perfect, it's not ideal, but it's home and the best we've all got, and that's enough for us. It's a family I'm so grateful to be a part of. I hope you who are reading this; remember your part in it today with it.
In love and gratitude always βοΈπ€

12 years ago today, I boarded a plane to Tanzania for the first time. I had no idea why, other than I had heard a voice of great love and compassion, a voice not of this world, ask me to go to a village called Uchira, in the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro.
I had never left Europe at that point in my life and knew nothing about Tanzania.
Without planning, without a strategy, without an education on the topic and with a lot of prayer and fasting, that voice continued to guide the direction we would take.
12 years later, we have become a family of nearly 300 children, most of which special needs. Living in villages we built with the love and help of humanity's heart and the constant presence of God's love.
We have helped thousands of children into education and out of child labour of many kinds. We have successfully supported 100s of street involved children with a full-time family and reintegration with society. We have rescued hundreds of stray dogs and continue to do so with it.
We now also have a full board drug rehabilitation centre, which, as I type, has 52 full-time residents fighting to be free of their addictions.
In short, a great many beautiful and healing elements of our family and society have manifested from following the voice of that loving God that brought me here all those years ago.
I'm so grateful God has put us here, in a space where mother, father creators love, can shine and comfort so powerfully and vibrantly.
If that voice that arises beyond me, "ness and emotion," can take the one typing this to here, I can only hope others realise it can take them to where they are needed too.
The catch is that God doesn't need our opinions, our ideas , or our strategy or planning. God needs absolute surrender to the will of the sacred. There, in the experience of the one typing here, our intelligence can be animated in ways we could have never imagined.
There, through the love of humanity, great beauty can, does, and will continue to arise unapologetically among mankind's story.
In love and gratitude, everyone π€

When you're healthy, life has a thousand conundrums and problems to deal with. When you're sick, it has one.
We live in such a self created inner turmoil that inner peace is long since forgotten by the majority of humans. We seek happiness, but happiness isn't peace. Happiness is beautiful but temporary. Peace once found is ever lasting, even in the face of adversity.
Gratitude is our problem. We devour materiality, hoping for one more glimpse of happiness, but it's never there. Yet if at the first attainment true gratitude is found, peace will quickly follow.
We're all wired wrong. We're told to work, to pay someone else to raise our children. We're sold a dream that only wealth will keep us happy and safe.
Yet if I told you tomorrow you're receiving millions of dollars, and you're a human who has yet to attain such blessings in life, and I asked how you felt? I'm sure you'd say grateful, excited, astonished at the opportunities that lay before you.
Then, however, I add a catch. After you receive it, you will never see tomorrow's sunset, and your life would draw to an early close if you take the offer. Would you take it?
Most won't. This means that seeing tomorrow's sunset has more value to you than millions of dollars. Pursue your well-being, pursue your security, but never forget that the priceless parts of life are free each and every day as you do.
Why can't we see that? Unless we've been successfully enslaved to forget the true value of life, the true wonder of simply being.
As we leave a place we love, this becomes more noticeable. Everything seems a little more valuable. We take more time to absorb it, to be present with that place. As we know, tomorrow we won't be with it to give true thanks for it.
So give thanks. If you're reading this, you're in possession of something that is seemingly priceless, that is, the rarity of the experience of being the one-off human form you are

From the depths of all that is gratitude, the Creator Share Family would like to announce that the construction of the world biggest special needs children's home has commenced near the capital city of Tanzania, Dodoma.
Thankyou God, thankyou to the love of humanity for bringing us to this surreal and almost unbelievable milestone in our journey.
We will build these homes and these villages across Africa to protect these children until development and awareness grow enough for society to provide it. As we do, we will make these invisible children visible to the heart of humanity. These are our 2 primary missions. Missions we will not fail to complete.
For with love, kindness, faith, and sharing of so many, and the miraculous support and presence of our loving creator persistently making itself known, I see no reason for anything but continued miraculous success as we fight for the safety of these little ones.
All glory to God and the divine love he's blessed our species with.
In love and gratitude, everyone...

Through the technology in your hand, humanity has never been more connected, yet with it never as isolated as we have become in this time.
We have replaced prayer with scrolling, and it is eroding the depth of human connection. The prayer I speak of is not verbal. it's not empty repetition. It's the stillness that awakens the truth. That the oceans, forests, night sky, the collosal nebulae, the endless galaxies... all conformed and united to human humans from the mystery of the fabric of reality. The stillness that enriches the heart of man. That all these beautiful natural wonders of God, needed a voice, hands and feet. So it human'd humans, it became you. A child of all creation, and the almighty creator who deemed you necessary, worthy of being the eyes of holiness in an increasingly unholy world.
You are made in the holy ones image and likeness. A shoe is made in the image and likeness of a foot. Without a foot entering in it however, it is inanimate, dead. It sits without life, for a foot is not in it.
So it is with us, if we do not allow stillness to fill us with the holy, we too become dead. Scrolling is another parcel of time in which we will not be filled with the collosal allness of the holy spirit, scrolling is another pair of empty shoes and until the prayer returns, no feet will ever find that shoe, and spiritual death is the future of such humans as it is the shoe with no foot to fill it...

Am I to feel joy and gratitude he was found? Or the pain he was abandoned?
These are the peculiar exegetic conflicts that appear inside caring for God's children.
In the end, I did not need to choose, for joy and gratitude chose me.
Holding our newest family member as he slowly dozed off, left me with nothing but gratitude in the end. Gratitude he's safe, gratitude he will be loved and safe always, and a silent hope we might just find his mum someday, and help her heal the wounds that caused her to make such an inexplicable decision.
Welcome to the family, Naymar. you will be loved now, i promise.
Thankyou everyone for making our magical and beautiful family a reality, i love you all π€

There is no economic crisis, there is no political crisis... all economics; all politics... are born of human thought. The only true crisis is human consciousness. The only true end to our non-stop perpetual states of crisis, separation, uncertainty, turmoil, and conflict is in the transformation of each individuals human consciousness, which will, in turn, transform the collective
Life is not about us and our desires... It's about the lives we touch and the imprints of love we leave as we do.

I could not have dreamed of a more perfect 40th birthday. To live in a dream is a privilege i leave my heart open to as persistently as i can. Thank you, God, for a life so filled with love, for the countless eyes filled with the twinkling magic of life and loving awareness that I get to see so closely.
Thank you, everyone, for truly giving me the foundations to walk in faith and obedience to the vision of this family, and the love, protection, safety, peace and joy it is bringing to so many young lives, who once walked in this world without anything in that list present.
I love you all, without condition, without need, want or expectation.. I love you all as such, as I feel God loves me as such. I'll continue to do my all, to love this life and the people in it with such a love, for in doing so I have seen nothing short of the miracles of God's love create such wonder, end so much suffering and replace it with so much peace and healing.
I simply must dedicate the next 40 years to that love that found these children and I. For that love with which we love, is the love that we are.
Thank-you for a beautiful a blessed day, and a life so miraculous, I simply can't wait to live it. ππ€π₯²
(Don't forget for my birthday. I'm sharing any gifts with the children and getting them a new library to explore imaginary lands, and grow in the knowledge we all need to excel in this life.)

40 years of life, what a journey it's been , and is.
The awareness I am, is grateful to have called this body of mine home for 40 years. The midlife milestone as they say.
I couldn't be more grateful that I'm spending that time overseeing the the next phase of construction of our new special needs children's village.
As I do that howeve my immediate family and the other nearing 250 children God has blessed me to be the guardian of, are very much still the focus of all I do, and long may it continue.
It's customary we receive love, unity and gifts for our birthdays in many parts of the world but not all.
So for my own birthday, I thought I'd say more than anything I would love to see our children with a beautiful library. A space to explore the world through the eyes of others, and open their imaginary worlds many of us took for granted growing up in countries surrounded by books.
So if you would like to share anything with me for my birthday, know I'm sharing my birthday with the children.

Welcome to the channel. I am John, my birth name is St Julien. BabaWanyama means "Father to the animals.." a name given in Tanzania for the hundreds of street dogs we have rescued and the shelter we have for them.
Here, I share the spiritual truth I have come to live by. Starting with a 40-day water fast that changed my life forever. I often discuss the fallen world/matrix, which we have all incarnated. How to overcome that world and its spiritual rulers, and with it the mind, its duality, and the energy extraction matrix, it connects us too.
The mystic interpretations of the scripture, the science of the sacred secretion, or the Christ within all men, has lead my life the last 11 years. In that time, a vision I followed saw me in Tanzania alone, having followed 11:11 blindly. Today, the charity I founded, The Creator Share Foundation, with the support of this community, is guardian to near 300 special needs children without families at our Children's village we built together here x
