As a christian, I am so sorry we have not made you feel warm around us. I am sorry we have taken Gods place and meted judgment upon you. I am sorry that we have not been the best example of Christs love. I am sorry we have pretended to be more righteous than Jesus. ( I mean, see how he dealt with Zacheus and the harlots in a very gentle way.) I am so sorry. Sending you hugs and lots of love!

Do you Chris don’t ever sit on the sidelines questioning your place ..your presence is essential and your empathy is on another level..just focus on the steps before you and be blind and deaf to heaters of this world.. I love you bruh.. one love
Chris Makena has spoken on behalf of many silent individuals ...You are truly bold and strong..the first thing someone can do is self discovery you will conquer everything onces you discover yourself.For you Makena all the best in your love life n continue being bold💝
I'm this eloquent, bold and and articulate in my mind but the moment I start speaking 🤔🤦♂🤦♂😢 all the words evaporate and my throat becomes dry. This is a weakness I have to work on.
Makena always remember that you had purpose before anyone else had an opinion about you, be who you were created to be unapologetically, long live Chris Njeri Makena
I see nothing but super boldness. I see myself in Makena, her struggles are similar to what I am going through. I chose to be bold and embrace myself for who I am.
WEWE👀 who is scrolling down to reading comments to see what Kenyans(Africans )have to say,You are LGBT(Q)and feel so represented by Makena,I WISH YOU FIND UR HAPPINESS and MAY THIS BE THE AFRICA WE ALL DREAM ABOUT,THE ONE THAT EMBRACES OUR DIFFERENCES AND ITS OKAY TO BE WHO EVER YOU WANT TO BE ,BE OKAY WITH IT
I just love the way she came out on stage and embraced her vulnerability. It is not easy to poke holes into societal norms. It takes a brave soul and a lot of courage to do what Makena just did. This is the definition of bringing heaven on earth! Thank You so much 👏
Children of Israel, Let not eloquence deceive you, don't go a stray. Uphold good morals, take good care of our moral values that comforms with the Bible. God Bless you!
Religion condemns you but True Christians understand that you have the spirit of homosexuality, the god of this world continues to blind you and so many others. But we’ll press in praying for your deliverance and that of everyone else in this same boat.
No matter how articulate one is, a wrong remains a wrong. As a society or a people with teachings we cant afford to overlook mistakes in the name of freedom to be who one wants to be.
Great speech about boldness. You also forgot to state that confession is the first step towards overcoming any sin. More grace Makena. Jesus loves you.
What should one be confessing about, if you start with confessions it means you are guilty, and the whole point here is to accept and love yourself wholly as you are, nature makes no mistakes, you are beautiful and wonderfully made.
Theres no life without Jesus Christ. Because when you leave this life(death) there is nothing left. Empty we came and empty we shall go. Blessed is the one who has believed (born again) in Jesus because they have eternal life.
Getting out of the closet is one of the hardest thing for anyone to do. Makena am happy and proud of you. I stand with you... We all may have our differences but I believe differences should not brew hate.... I send you my love and support
I am sorry Makena, for the hatred and unkindness that has been meted on you. As a Christian I agree we should be motivated by love and care for all. However in consistent and faithfulness to Scripture it would be unloving not to call out the sin that the bible calls on gayism, if you are to identify with the faith, you have to be called out. And fidelity to Scripture is Paramount. There is a reason why Scripture only acknowledges gender as either male or female. And BTW we cannot all live our truths because there is no such thing, truth is independent of who we are we just have to abide by it or reject it. And if you ask what is truth and who determines it? Well that's a discussion for another day. My parting shortis an analogy, if my brother one day comes up to me and tells me he'd like to be a pastor and has two wives, just because he feels so and is able to do so and he won't be hurting anyone, he'd still fail the biblical qualification, not because I hate him or have anything against him. Its simply because the bible is clear and says so. Sorry my long post has a Christian bias, because that's what I hear she identifies with.
Its not a christian bias, it is the truth. At the end of the day, does society define what truth is? Or is it the individual? My take, God defines what truth is since He I the author of it. Truth then isn't relative (your truth, my truth) truth by its very definition is absolute, and the truth about this issue, He has said its a sin. Nothing more, nothing less, nothing else.
Makena is what I term as a balanced diet; intelligent, smart, so beautiful, knowledgeable, bright, cute, pretty, adorable, loving, insightful, have foresight, bold, diligent, dedicated, obedient, truthful, the list is endless...............
Lol ,,,not a Christian judging others. Have you forgotten the what the bible says,,, " Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Why do you have to try and hide from your true identity? Why do we crave to become something we're not? Why do we chose to marry from the same gender? Why is it not advisable to do so? Why? Why? Why? And I still ask why? God Bless You, Makena!🙏
The perceived freedom is temporal as long as it is in violation of divine principles, and laws of nature. Seek eternal happiness, freedom, and inner peace only secure in obedience to God.
@@janetmunyiva8390 I don't need to speak for Him, his word does, and he hates this. That's why he destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, okay . Ama pia wewe you're one of them🤔🤔😭😭
@@UrbanCraftTvit's good to have freedom, but of doing the right thing, just because you want freedom to kill doesn't mean you should have it. If you fear God, his word should be your guiding light
Why do people feel the need to control what other adults do with their lives? Let people be. You don't have to agree with them. Thank you for your courage. You've inspired me to be bold and unapologetically myself.
All of us struggle with different challenges. The reality is that no matter how much we want to normalize them, will never make them normal. An apple will always be an apple no matter how much you call it a tomato. But we should not hate ppl bcs of their struggles. They ought to be loved but at the same time be told the truth. The question is, how do we do it?
Without boldness, you cannot practice any other virtue consistently. Life has no predetermined path that we all must follow to be successful or happy. Follow your path confidently and live your life to the fullest.
... There's a little tiny thing in us called conscience which screams to us what we do is wrong and that scarcely question bugs us to think where we gonna end up if we died today...
I remember during the last repeal 162 case hearing. We went there and God gave us victory. He did not allow homosexuality to become legal in Kenya. But in celebrating He kept saying one thing. 'I love them too'. Even in celebration God kept reminding us to show love to the people who came expecting victory. So we do need to show love but that does not mean accepting something that God has condemned. There are people who have been set free from homosexuality and they are testimonies today. For the true Christian who understands, stand in prayer and nullify deception from Kenya. That the light of Christ shines in the darkness and overcomes it
Congratulations!!!! A story is told about the Buddha and how after enlightenment he met a man who being struck by his radiance and sense of peace asked him: "My friend, what are you? Are you a god?" "No", the Buddha replied. "Are you a magician, a wizard?" Again the Buddha answered, "No". Perplexed, the man asked again "So what exactly are you?", the Buddha replied: "I'm awake". To finally be awake to who you truly are is a magical thing. Unfortunately so many of us use all of our time and energy focusing on others that we fail to awake to our own true self resulting in second hand empty lives that are trapped in norms that we have borrowed instead of norms cultivated from our own awakeness. GO Makena GO. More light to you.
There is eloquence, there is Boldness and then there is what is right, and none of this should imply the other. You can always say a bunch of wrong things or half-truths with a lot of Boldness. The moment you say you are Christian, then you acknowledge that you don't make the rules - Christ does. Our work is then to find out what rules He has set for us humans and to follow them. In the class of beginners, freedom is doing what you want, in the class of seniors, freedom is the ability to do what is right.
No matter how beautiful you speak I see the GIRL in you,that beautiful girl God created," with a womb".you will NEVER, EVER change that,never no matter how hard you try.i boobs,I see hips. God wanted you to be a woman but you are telling Him," God you are wrong"
Great articulation. Together we advocate for a world free of gender based discrimination. Everybody should respect one's gender identity and orientation
I have so much respect for you Makena.Thank u for speaking for so many out here were many married raising kids but eiisshh in Kenya noma personaly I walk my head high knowing am living my truth we right behind you 🌈
This lady had a very troubled abusive childhood. She has struggled to be who she is today. Its my prayer that the spirit of the Lord continues to minister to her ,grant her the grace of healing from a traumatic childhood experiences. Probably this will heal her whole being and conform to what is normal lifestyle. Otherwise for now, its hard and almost impossible to love a man. God's grace is abundant gal. She requires more love and understanding her more. Blessings beautiful intelligent gal
I am in no place to judge but God will never go back on his word. Sin is sin no mater how much you want to Sugar coat it. There is sin before God and there is an abomination...this is abomination. Makena, God loves you.
You're story is so encouraging and full of life experiences. I like when i see a woman/lady/ girl, being bold and speaking her mind. This society won't shake such a female.
@@kevinnjeru4378 oh yeah the society indeed won't appreciate any of that behavior but the way we are, we're the product of the society. I think of late she has stated dating..
You've discovered who you are and have embraced yourself, that's what matters. Being real to yourself is all you need. To all the earthlings that judge you, talking of sin, may be its time they took time to study all of God's creation with a more keen eye. Meanwhile just go on being you, positive vibrations
Boldness is everything... When you're bold, fear disappears... So proud of you for standing up and boldly letting the world know who and what you are. I love boldness and courage too cos I am bold! Thank you gal! Keep up the trend and never stop!
These 16 minutes have made a significant difference in me. Living in the light instead of hiding in the shadows in fear of what others say; this is the best gift to yourself (myself). Thank you so much Makena for speaking up. You're bold, and bold is you💯 I hope we all get there someday soon
As a Christian I know we need to practice love in our day to day encounters for whoever that’s human and I wouldn’t hate you for who you but remind you that that’s not what God intended for you. You’d rather stay single than be in love with same gender. I thank God you are bold and I urge you to be bold too in doing all that God expects of you. It’s something you need to pray about and one day you will overcome
Everything is mental. I like your boldness. Otherwise the real truth of who you are comes from God. Nothing else can change that truth. You can only become what you have constantly think you are but that won't change who you are. This opinion comes with love. God loves you and He made you the way you are for a reason. Kindly dont change.
And the society should not expect her to be who she isn't. She a light to all people who cannot live their truth because the society really bashes them.
If you are going in a wrong way, even if you change the speed you will still be in a wrong way until you change your direction. A wrong will remain wrong until a correction is made
A close person to me really struggled with this, till she went to her grave young😭,thank you for speaking out ,for being bold!she would be sooo proud of you today,mob 💕😘
"Why is it that, as a culture we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" Miss makena am really appreciating for you boldness❤
I haven’t listened to such acrid eloquence (and poetry) in quite a while. Life is short. Live it. Breathe and feel the rays of the sun on your skin like every-talking-judging-one else. Again, life is short, so never lose time. For when you lose time, it is your own time. Cheers.
Very powerful speech. I think those who judge you are not being honest. They just envy your SUCCESS!. Secondly, harmony leads to happiness. Humanity is battling some fundamental questions. I won't cheer or castigate you but will only leave this advice here. When you reach a crossroad and are not sure of the next move, the best advice is to go back where you have come from because it is the only familiar way you know.
It's sad because however much people try to change, some cultures don't because of how they're meant to be. It's hard to change religious, cultural and biological beliefs.
Culture is dynamic. We now have very many homes functioning with only parent present. Her biology has not stopped working. She can love whomever she wants and still have children.
