MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (3)

It was a high-brow hotel on the Island somewhere in Lagos State. I had stopped over to say hello to a dear mentor who was in town. After our discussion, I dipped my hands into my pocket and slipped a cash gift into his hands- it was my way of saying thank you. He does not need my money. He […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (2)

My late grandparents have something very unique that I can never take for granted- relationships. They have such solid bonds with people from different seasons of their lives. Whenever I sit with corp members exiting Eruwa, I sound it loud and clear- do not joke with relationships. Keep in touch with us and with your batch! One mistake we make […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (1)

When I noticed that my heart was drawn towards the young lady in my church and I perceived she would be my wife, I went to my spiritual father to inform him. His counsel remains timeless and I can never forget: “First, be sure you heard God. Second, Do not marry a woman who does not believe in God’s vision […]

“DON’T YOU HAVE YOUR OWN WEAKNESS TOO”?

I was greatly troubled when I invited the brother for a heart-to-heart discussion on an issue that I know was simply ungodly- it had no two words to describe it. When I laid down what I believe would be a friendly godly warning on the matter, the response I got shook me to my bones. He looked at me and […]

BEDWETTING TALES

I had some very interesting bed-wetting tales as a young boy. What shall we say to the dreams that tell me I am already in the restroom or that I had run off the football pitch to a bush so I can now ease myself? I only wake up to realise that the restroom was still my bed. Did it happen […]

HE TOOK HER SPIT

My sister and friend was heavily pregnant. They had gotten into the car about to drive out when she felt like expunging some phlegm. In her state, she felt too tired to stand. She could not get back into the house. The husband made the most interesting move ever- he asked the wife to spit into his mouth. The wife […]

IF YOUR TEACHER CALLS YOU “FRIEND”

Danielle walked into my office and met me having a conversation with a dear protégé. She came in excitedly and my protégé gave her the “High Five” hand gesture. Daniele went on her knees and greeted him without giving him a “High Five” in return. She then came to hug me and then I said, “Give me a High Five”. […]

HOW TO DEAL WITH EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENTS

At a point, I was getting pretty close to a young lady. We practically spoke every day. Do you know the kind of relationship where you both know you are on to something but you both are not talking? I knew it was going nowhere. Why? There was no way this lady friend of mine would ever choose to settle […]

“CAN YOU DO THE SAME FOR YOUR SPOUSE?”

A dear teacher and mother in the faith shared the story of how the Spirit of the Lord taught her to be tenderhearted towards her husband. It became a huge lesson for me. Here is her story:She just finished cleaning up the living room one day. She had a toddler already. She stepped out of the living room to do […]
