Back then in secondary school, one of the first experiments that we carried out was the use of a concave lens to burn a piece of paper. It amazed all of us. We placed the concave lens in the direction of the rays of the sun while the paper was placed right under it. There will be a tiny glow […]
A dear brother shared that he grew up in a dysfunctional home and in poverty. His father would take no nonsense from anyone. There was a time he took his daughter to slap an elderly person who slapped her in the neighbourhood. Thank God for the “Abigailic” move of their mum. He recounted that any time he had the opportunity […]
In my second year at the university, I woke up one night because I had a test in the morning. I picked up my books to read, and at that moment, it struck me like light: “Have you ever woken up to pray, study or fellowship with the Lord?” That day, I decided nothing would ever come before my devotion […]
My wife called out to my daughter, “Moyantoluwa”. She kept saying, “I am coming’ but she did not leave what she was doing in the living room. Minutes after, she comes strolling in to the room. Her mum said to her, “Moyantoluwa, when mum calls you, is it good to delay?” (Well! My daughter said ‘Yes’ and Mum said the […]
I learnt a major lesson from my Pastor during my service year. He shared a story with us that I have not forgotten. It left a major imprint on my soul to date. Pastor used to lecture in the medical sciences. One day, he went to his usual classes. One of his students asked him a question that he did […]
As a young boy and a pastor’s child, I had access to musical instruments and I desired to learn to play them. Then, instruments were still kept at home. It was so easy to walk to any and play. Eventually, my parents got us a drums instructor. It was such a delight. We started with the simple beats. I learnt […]
I was invited to lunch with a dear brother and his wife who were both widely travelled. The table looked great and inviting. There was just a challenge- the only thing I recognised on the table was potatoes. How would I eat what I was not familiar with? I had an option of keeping quiet and playing along or staying […]
There was a time when we needed to get some electrical work done in the ministry. I was discussing this with the church engineer. He has come up with a solution that I felt was too expensive. We stood in the church hall and were considering solutions. Just like a light bulb, I saw what we needed to do. Amazingly, […]
A dear brother of mine called me after a meeting and said, “I need to tell you something”. He mentioned that I kept repeating a particular phrase that was not honourable enough especially when addressing people I was meant to honour. It was a dear teacher who pointed it out to him. First, I expressed my gratitude to him for […]
In the year 2012, I decided to spend my third Saturday every year in a mini-retreat. I would leave the house as early as 6 am and return at about 1 pm. I would not consider an invitation that fell on the third Saturday of the month. I would rather be in retreat, and not anywhere else. During that season, […]
