I had a bottle of freshly squeezed juice and Olive loved it after tasting it. She wanted to have more but the bottle was tightly shut. She began to struggle with the cover. Everytime I reached out to her so I can uncover and help her, she holds tightly to the bottle and keeps crying. When I collect it with […]
We had to camp teenage students sometimes back. It was seven weeks of a lot of sacrifices- time, sleep and even meals. At a point, we had to take all the foodstuff we left at home to the camp. I got a report that one of the teens showed ingratitude. While trying to correct him, I said, “Even we are […]
Late last year, in the middle of making a major decision about a purchase, I got a unique opportunity – the seller brought down the price by about twenty-five percent. While trying to make a final decision about it, I heard my father in the faith teaching and he said, “Favour comes as open windows and if you do not […]
I was studying at night when I noticed a mosquito was having a field day around me. Before I knew it, I noticed I had gotten two spots from a bite I did not feel initially- one on my legs and another on my arm. I stood up and looked for the mosquito repellant cream. I rubbed it on myself. […]
I woke up at night and realised that water had stopped running. The normal thing to do was to get to pump water but there were two challenges: First, there was no power supply.

We made some complaints and we managed the first night. The next day, I refused and asked for something better or […]
The first 4 years of Pastoring in Eruwa came with mixed emotions. Church would grow in numbers and I would be so glad and excited. Energy was high. People were been trained in the ways of the Lord. But then, transition season would come, people we just trained in six months or at most a year would have their stay […]
For a while this year, we decided to spend time praying for the influence of church to extend to one of the sectors of our community. It had been a battle for almost four years. We took it serious this year in intercession. Few weeks into interceding, the barriers began to crumble one after the other. We began to see […]
I looked at my youngest daughter and said to my wife, “I remember that day in the labour room. I can never forget”. It was a mixture of water, blood and pains. The deep groans that followed the final push is well ingrained in my mind till date. One of the things a believer must constantly be grateful for is […]
I was having an afternoon nap when that name dropped in my heart. I did not know the person but I became restless. I left the hostel and headed to the faculty. I asked my first colleague that I met in the faculty that, “Do you know anyone by so and so name?” I was shocked when he said, “He […]
