An elderly one told me a story of how he took his daughter to the clinic. In a bid for the family doctor to put her at ease, he asked her a simple question: “What is your name?” Her answer was not that simple. She went ahead to mention her name attaching that she is a princess and mentioned categorically […]
Just after signing the letter accepting me as a corps member in the organization, she looked up and said, “You will be idle if you just stay around here although we have a good accommodation for you”. Then she continued, “You are a professional. I think you should get to practice in the state capital” And then the warning landed, […]
Just some months before my service year, I told God that it was going to be a year that I spend in communing with Him. I would pray and listen while I build capacity for the things He has laid on my heart. At the same time, I was to trust Him for what He would have me do. I […]
When I got my posting letter, I did not go straight to the Local Government where I had been deployed. I spent the weekend in a familiar place having the best of fun. However, reality struck when I visited my place of personal assignment and I saw the state. I placed a call through to someone and mentioned that I […]
We thank God for what He has done in the past few weeks. One of the most exciting part is the “Holiday Bible School with Uncle Temi”. We had 53 kids in attendance on the last day. 37 of them were Secondary School students. We took a week to teach about The Bible, God, The Grace and Love of God […]

I had an issue just around the time ministry started. One of the things I had to do was apologize to elderly ones. They are amazing people and I did not want to offend anyone but I knew I had to do the will of God. When I was done stating my position on the isssue, one of them looked […]
I was taking an evening walk while I also took some time out to pray. While walking in the compound of a secondary school, I noticed some new buildings were now there. Well! I walked towards the building to see the inscription on the wall. I wanted to know who donated it. While I stood reading, a young artisan walked […]
When they called the second time about the meeting, they had a lot of explanation about how they did not have the means to “take care” of me as they should. (By taking care, they must have meant honorarium and all that comes with it). I loved their sincerity. Some never get sincere and treat their guests in.a shabby manner. […]
I walked up to one of my lecturers in the faculty and I explained to him- I have an invitation to speak outside the country but it is clashing with our end of the semester examination. He said to him, “You will have to choose one”. I was sad. At the long run, I did not travel to preach because […]
