GET DRUNK…

An incidence happened in our first year in the University- a young man who seemed to be in love with another girl but could not face her to express his affection did something very strange. He walked into the fresher’s female hostel one evening and began to say, “I love ______” quite loudly. What a strategy. Eventually when they had […]

BREAK FREE FROM THE CHAINS OF COMPARISON!

I was on my way out of the city of Ibadan some years back. I ran into a colleague of mine somewhere in the city. We parked and greeted one another. I was still about two years in ministry in Eruwa.  As I drove away from him, the devil decided to hit me with strange thoughts of discouragement, “Look at […]

THE VITAL ROLE OF MENTORING AND DISCIPLESHIP IN LIFE’S JOURNEY

We were walking towards the sports complex, and my friend and sister said, “Temi, we normally attend a mentoring vigil with Pastor.” I wondered what mentoring vigil was and why I needed it. I told her, “The most important thing is that you study the Word of God and know God for yourself”  Deep within, I was wondering why I […]

THE UNSEEN IMPACT OF FAITHFUL STEWARDSHIP

On the day he responded to the call to give His life to Christ, he was the only one who came to the altar. A fellowship had invested so much to assemble a meeting, but only one soul responded.  I imagine them telling themselves they could have done better in an appraisal meeting. Maybe they even expected more! But it […]

YOU CANNOT DO LIFE ALONE!

I was surprised when I saw that Olive was carried instead of her walking. Looking closely, she had slept off in class. When we got home, she was still sleepy. She attempted to walk but did not find her steps. The most interesting of things then happened: Danielle turned her back towards her and asked her sister to climb on […]

GROW UP BUT REMAIN GOD’S CHILD

Danielle came into our room crying. We wondered what was wrong. She reported that Olive had kicked her in the back. While we were placating her, I asked what she wanted me to do to Olive. She said, “Beat her”. I smiled.  It was not up to five minutes when Olive also appeared at our door. As she tried to […]

THE VALUE OF CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP

My daughter did not get to call me “Daddy” at first. There were times it sounded as though she was even calling me “Temi”. I would say call me daddy but nothing happened. We had cause to visit our friends in Lagos. She heard them call “Daddy”. That was all the change we needed. Everything we were struggling to make […]

HOW TO CULTIVATE SPIRITUAL APPETITE

The first thing Irewamiri said when I got in was, “Can you imagine what just happened?” I had travelled for about 48 hours. She was pregnant with Danielle. She said that for about 24 hours, she did all she could to get the baby to kick and turn like she would normally do, but nothing happened. She sang. She rubbed […]

HOW TO BUILD A HABIT OF PRAYER

While growing up, we had a neighbour who loved dogs. Their dogs became the neighbourhood dogs- it was everyone’s pet. We had Jack, and we had Jill.  Jack had an amazing pattern. A few minutes to 4 pm every weekday, Jack would come to our door and wait- that was the hour my mum would leave for the church to […]

HOW TO BUILD A LIFE THAT STANDS!

We had many memories as children. We were the outdoor generation- no phones, TV stations broadcast from 4 p.m., board games needed a playing mate! It was the “go out and play.” I rolled tyres. I participated in high jump with branches from shrubs around us.  One of the things we did with soft sand was to build “birdhouses.” Our […]
