One of the things they kept telling us at ante-natal appointments close to the day of delivery was “Once the water breaks, start coming to the hospital”. But they did not mention that between the breaking of the water and the delivery of the baby were heightened heartbeats, random groans and pains, consolation words, some things that cannot be described. […]
Right after the meeting that evening, he had a chat with her. He said, “I learnt you are getting married, I would not be needing a lot of things in my kitchen any more. You can have them”. The interesting part is that she would not have been in that meeting on a normal day if not for pastoral rebuke […]
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 […]
As it is our custom, every morning after morning devotion, we greet one another- smiles, hugs blessings and kind words flow. But that morning, my daughter would have none of it. She was touchy and moody. All the “Say Good Morning dear” did not work. Well! I said to the mum’s hearing that “In the name of Jesus, I rebuke […]
I stepped out long before dawn to spend some time praying. As I prayed with a torch in my hand, I spotted a lizard. It jolted me when I saw it. I kept shining the torch on it. It did not bulge. It did not move. That was my first time of seeing a sleeping lizard. It slept right at […]
Danielle was watching a music video on my phone but the battery was already low. After a while, the battery went flat and the phone shut down. My daughter walks to the charging point and attempts plugging the phone. I helped out. When the initial screen light came on, my daughter pulled out the charger but as she walked away, […]
2008 was a pretty tough year for my brother. The first of the incidence was early in that year when he had an accident. The Peugeot 505 he was driving did not survive it but he came out unhurt! Out of thanksgiving and support from parents, he got a new car. Few months later (08/08/08), he was working overnight in […]
Everytime we get close to the gate of our house, one of the ladies in the car with us would request for the key to unlock the gate which I always get to hand over. Danielle is now the new key-woman. Once we take the turn towards the gate, you will hear her say these words, “Daddy, Key!” I will […]
My dear brother and family friend is a father of boys and he told me that his last boy constantly prays for my daughter. Every time he prays, he never misses to mention Imisi in prayers. And then he added that “Maybe…” We both had a good laugh. Friends, there is no harm in investing in prayers. It is an […]
Danielle woke up and came to say good morning to Dad. She wanted to watch a video of a song on the phone titled “God’s love”. Then we had this conversation. Dad: Would you allow dad to send out a morning message first before you have the phone? Danielle: Yes! (I know she was still going to ask again for […]
