Every Christian has been told that in order to find the riches of God, those spiritual and natural benefits due a blood-bought, bible-taught believer, that we must be "in the Will of God." Sometimes finding God''s will is difficult, or even, downright impossible to some of us. Within these pages, I would like to share just a little wisdom and insight into the heart of God, and with prayer, impart in you access to the "abundant life" promised by our Savior in John 10:10. Remember, an abundant life is not about the accumulation of things, but the quality of life that you live. Be encouraged and know that even in the place you are at this very moment, your life can be, and should be, lived in abundance, if you follow His will, and thirst for His way!

Malaria in pregnancy is a significant health problem in malaria-endemic areas. It not only causes substantial childhood morbidity and mortality but also increases the risks of adverse events for pregnant women and their developing fetuses. Most of the burden in these areas is due to infection with Plasmodium falciparum. Artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) has been recommended as first-line treatment for uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria in all populations, including pregnant women in their second and third trimesters, since 2006. However, for women in their first trimester of pregnancy, WHO recommended as first-line treatment a combination of quinine and clindamycin. Based on a review of the evidence conducted in 2022, WHO now recommends artemether–lumefantrine, the ACT with the most human safety data available, as the preferred treatment for uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria in the first trimester of pregnancy. This document presents all relevant evidence on the effects and safety in early pregnancy of artemisinins and partner medicines used in ACTs from both studies in experimental animals and observational studies in humans.
