HUNGER HELPS CONCENTRATION

As Irewamiri was feeding Olive, she said to me, “Darling, do you notice something about Olive?” She then continued that, “When Olive is really hungry, she concentrates on her feeding but when she is not, she gets distracted. She wants to see the face attached to every voice that is speaking”. I smiled and told Irewamiri that hunger helps concentration. […]

OVERCOME THE PRESSURE

In the first few months of the ministry, one of my dear friends was about getting married. He called and requested that I join his train for the wedding. I would do it with joy but there was a challenge: At that moment, I knew I could not afford the things needed for the wedding- clothes and all! I was not […]

THE LIST SHE MADE

After I asked out Irewamiri, she had many reasons why she would not agree to marry me. She reminds me these days that there was just one location to fill cooking gas back then in Eruwa. We carry cylinders all the way to Ibadan. God told her to make a list of what she loved about me and what she […]

EAT THIS ONE; THROW THIS AWAY

Danielle brought a banana to me so I could help her peel it. When I was done peeling, I gave her the peel in one hand and the unwrapped banana in another hand. Then I said to her, “Eat this one. Throw this one away”. One of the assignment of fathers in life is to show the child what to […]

She knew something was missing. Just then I had the Spirit impress it on my heart, “Do you get comfortable when you […]

HE FOUND A CLUB THAT NIGHT

We resumed a month behind schedule at the Nigeria Law School. We were posted to Kano Campus. We knew we had backlogs to catch up with and a lot of workloads to sort. But one of our colleagues had another plan. Once he offloaded his box, it was full of all manners of fancy shoes. He began to enquire about […]

DADDY… PRAY!

I wanted to take some cornflakes in hot milk. As I settled down to eat, just after taking the first two spoons, my daughter Danielle hit my arm so hard and said: “Daddy, pray!” I was in shock. I prayed immediately and I apologized for forgetting. (Blessing your meal is not just a routine. Do it consciously. Thanksgiving must be […]

WILL YOU STILL BE USABLE?

We ordered for some meat. It was delivered earlier in the day. By the time we got home, we were pretty tired. We left the raw meat in a bowl in the kitchen with the intent to boil it. In a bid to catch a rest, we slept off. I woke up about two hours later and discovered that the […]
