Sarah Sanyu, our joy & Heaven’s Princess

Sarah Sanyu, the mention of your name brings memories flooding back as if it were only yesterday.
Only yesterday when you made that life-transforming decision to follow Christ, even if!
Even if! Resolute and persuaded that God is more than able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all. Even if! Convinced that no other except the Maker of heaven and earth deserves your allegiance.
‘Even if He does not heal my mum, His existence is not conditional, I will follow and serve Him’.
“Even if”, the anchor for the journey that was, the journey of faith, commitment and resilience.

Persuasion indeed was that you gave your all, emptying your nothingness only to be filled.
Filled with the Holy Spirit, munching His word daily, forsaking not the fellowship of the beloved.
Prayer and fasting your regular portion were, no spiritual deficiency, a diet balanced.
Tapping into the heaven’s flow, in Him grounded, a conduit you became, o thou worthy ambassador.
That voice crying out “mbe bojjo garuka hari Ruhanga wawe, Yesu nakweta”calling
How from thine belly streams of living water flowed, touching lives, thirst quenching!

The voice that graced weddings and funerals, streets and homes, cities and villages,
Today in our minds lingers, that powerful anointed voice in our memory stands.
Not the perfected voice, but the one anointed, anointed for a cause
The broken hearts to bind, the message of hope to the poor deliver and God’s love embraced.
Yours was the voice of the one whom God alone qualified, heaven’s loan to mankind
Today, in glory you live, Sarah Sanyu, our joy and the world’s princess.
