Gospel singer Linet Munyali, popularly known as Size 8, has become a source of inspiration and reflection for many, particularly women, as she recently opened up about the importance of maintaining faith in Jesus during challenging times, especially in the face of relationship turmoil. The mother of two, who has faced her own share of ups and downs, emphasized that when things go wrong in relationships, it is crucial not to turn away from God but to seek His guidance and comfort.
In a heartfelt message shared on her social media platforms, Size 8, who is well-known in Kenya for her gospel music and role as a reality TV star, addressed the emotional turbulence that often accompanies failed relationships. She pointed out that while it is easy to place blame on God when things do not go as expected, it is essential to remember that God granted humans free will. Thus, the choices and actions of others are not a reflection of God’s will, but rather of their own.
“Why abandon your faith in Jesus Christ when things don’t work out? God can’t control the actions of your spouse,” Size 8 wrote. “If they choose not to follow His commands and hurt you, God is not responsible, for God gave humanity free will.”
Her words resonate with many, especially women who may feel disillusioned or betrayed by their partners. Size 8 urged them to consider that it is not God who has wronged them but the individuals who have chosen to act against His teachings. This perspective encourages a shift away from blaming God and towards understanding the complexity of human free will.
The singer’s message comes at a poignant time in her life, as she recently announced her separation from celebrity DJ Mo, with whom she shared an 11-year marriage. Despite the end of their union, Size 8 remains firm in her faith, underscoring the importance of relying on God even in moments of despair.
“Women, when men and your spouse disappoint you or hurt you, that is not the time to blame God or ask God why did this happen… To a point many are leaving their salvation and their faith in Jesus Christ and they say God let me down,” she continued. “God is not responsible for who you chose as your partner. This was your own free will. So why come blame God when things go bad?”
Size 8’s candid approach to addressing the often-overlooked emotional and spiritual struggles that come with relationship breakdowns offers a valuable lesson. Her message serves as a reminder that faith should not be conditional, based solely on life’s highs and lows, but rather a constant source of strength and solace.
Encouraging others to turn to God rather than away from Him in times of trouble, Size 8 added, “At the time of disappointments, run to God, not away from God. Cry for mercy and ask Him to help you, for His grace is available for those in need.”
Her journey, marked by public scrutiny and personal challenges, has made her an even more relatable figure to many who look up to her. Despite the challenges she faces, Size 8’s resolve to maintain her faith and encourage others to do the same is a testament to her deep spiritual conviction.
Just two weeks after confirming her separation from DJ Mo, Size 8 celebrated her birthday with a powerful message about starting a new chapter in her life. She wrote, “I’ve been married for 11 years, and now I start the journey of singlehood. But God is still on the throne; I worship you, Yahweh.”
In sharing her story, Size 8 has not only opened up about her personal struggles but has also provided a beacon of hope for others facing similar challenges. Her unwavering faith and determination to remain close to God, despite the trials she endures, serve as a powerful reminder of the importance of spiritual resilience in the face of adversity.
