Irewamiri stepped out. Danielle stepped out, also. Olive began to look around and wanted to cry. She did not know I was right behind her. I picked up her toy, got her attention and said to her, “You are not alone. I am here with you”. She beamed a smile and continued playing. I believe the Lord is asking me […]
Recently, Dad reminded me of something very unique and reassuring: He used to drive a Nissan Primera. He would normally park the car under a cashew tree in front of the house. One evening, it was quite stormy. It did not occur to any of us that he should move the car. When we woke up, we saw what amazed […]
There was an interesting night that we were having some difficulty resolving our disagreements. It was one of those nights that the atmosphere grew cold, and it seemed like it would remain that way. Suddenly, we heard our neighbours’ voices at the back of the house. We looked out and saw they were trying to kill a snake. I rushed […]
Back in the day, while I was still an undergraduate, I would invite friends to join me in meetings in the land of Eruwa. At times, I was the host. At times, it was in my parents’ church. On one such occasion, I had the honour of hosting a friend. When we got to town, he had a necklace around […]
A dear brother in the faith shared about how the Lord asked him to send a ridiculously small amount to our father in the faith. He felt it was too small. He summoned up strength and obeyed the Lord.

I was on a personal retreat sometime ago when I saw a message from a father in the faith that blessed me.

Make sure you are constantly guided by them. When some men say […]
When my Dad was contemplating building his own house, there were options as to where to build. There was a more developed portion of town where many were building at the time. It was closer to family and major institutions. However, he said, for some reason, he just did not have a desire to build there. He eventually chose a […]
I grew up seeing the changes in the world of technology. I saw the diskettes and some of the “big box” visual display units. I saw how these things began to change right before us. As a young boy, I was visiting with an uncle during that era. He had a computer and internet linked to it. When I got […]
A dear brother and I sat in his car about three years ago. He asked, “Pastor, what should my wife and I check on as we go into a new year? Do you have any suggestions?” I said to him, “You should ask yourself two simple questions- Where did I go, and great value was added to me? Who did […]
We were visiting with some of our friends some years ago. The husband humorously said, “Please, tell my wife to remove her ring”. We looked towards the wife while she struggled to pull the ring out. Apparently, she added weight in pregnancy that made the wedding ring tighter in our hands. The husband started laughing. He then went ahead to […]
