Preacher and counselor Robert Burale has recently expressed his concerns about unreliable and temporary friendships advising caution should be applied when seeking true friends.
The renowned preacher took to his Instagram page to advise people on who they make friends with, recounting how Jacque Maribe ex-fiance, Jowie Irungu, had been abandoned after he was convicted of Monica Kimani’s murder.
Burale further went down memory lane recalling how Jowie was often invited to podcasts and parties.
“When Jowie was first released pending trial he became an instant celebrity. Other ‘celebrities’ (useless careers) were flocking to take photos with him. Most Podcasters interviewed him. He was everyone’s darling. When he was found guilty, there were very few people around him,” the motivational speaker expressed.
The chocolate-skinned man of God further observed that only Jowie‘s family has stood by him after the court found him guilty.
“We saw painful tears from his sister. No more Podcasts. No selfies with so-called celebrities. On the day of his sentence, his mother stood by him. In the photo below she is looking at the officer as if to say, do not let the handcuffs hurt my son.”
The father of one also encouraged friends to stand by their friends during difficult times adding that he hoped Monica’s family had such friends.
“I pray that Monica’s family will find God’s peace as they remember their loved one. I also pray and hope they have friends who are still standing with them even after the media blitz has died down..” Burale expressed.
Following his long speech, Burale urged people to reduce the number of chairs around their dinner tables.
“REDUCE THE NUMBER OF CHAIRS AROUND YOUR DINNER TABLE,” Burale finished.
