Gospel artist Kambua Manundu has reflected on her motherhood journey and the children she lost in an emotional message shared alongside a photo of her with her children.
The gospel artist opened up about her feelings and the deep meaning of motherhood in her life on Monday, May 11, 2026. She shared her thoughts as she continued to speak openly about her personal journey.
“I imagine two other pairs of hands on either side of my children—the ones who didn’t stay. I’m still grateful that they all call me mama,” the gospel singer said.
Kambua has always explained that motherhood has carried both joy and pain for her over the years. Her reflection comes from a place of love, memory and gratitude. She noted that even through loss, she still holds on to hope and appreciation for her children.
She has previously spoken about her difficult experiences with pregnancy and loss. She shared her story during a YouTube conversation in November 2025, where she opened up about her faith and emotional journey. The singer said she never expected to go through such a painful experience in life.
“I never thought I would be the woman who walks out of a maternity ward empty-handed,” Kambua said.
journey of faith and emotional struggle
Kambua explained that her journey has not been easy and has involved many emotional changes over time. She said she has moved between hope, confusion and faith as she tried to understand her experiences. The singer shared that her prayers and emotions often changed depending on what she was going through.
“I have gone through a whole cycle of, in the beginning, ‘Oh God, I know you will do it,’ and then I have gone to ‘God, what is really going on?’ God, can you hear me? Okay, God, whatever! And then back to ‘Okay, God, I believe in you.’ I had a cycle,” she said.
She also reflected on how she would pray for other women while quietly dealing with her own struggles. Kambua said there were moments she questioned her own journey while still celebrating others. She explained that this emotional tension was part of her healing process.
Kambua added that she would often ask God questions during her private moments, especially when things felt difficult. She said her faith was tested but also strengthened over time. Through it all, she continues to describe herself as a mother who carries both memory and gratitude in her heart.
