They are both amazing children of God. I asked them a simple question: “Seeing that the two of you would be getting married soon, I want to ask, “How did you manage sexual pressure or it did not happen to you at all”. My friend looked at me and said “My brother, that thing does not respect missionaries” (He is […]
While making plans for their wedding, my friends realised that the traditional outfit called Aso-Oke for the two of them was going to gulp quite a sum of money. The husband wanted to know how to convince his wife that it was not a great idea. He had priced a cooking oven. The price for the Aso-Oke and the cooking […]
Just before I made a major decision in my life’s journey, I had to visit quite some folks. I was asked on one of those trips about what I do, “I mentioned that I was a Pastor”. I had to add that “I planted a church in Eruwa”. The next thing I heard was “So you are one of those […]
I cannot remember what we were eating that lovely afternoon but I know it was a great meal. Our neighbour’s son walked in and quietly leaned on the doorpost of the dining room. My elder sister spotted the young boy (he is a big man now) and made a statement that I can never forget. She said, “Why are you […]
I was already preparing documents to travel out of the country for a few weeks before coming to settle into the call of God. One morning while studying, the Lord told me, “Travelling out, No!” I was sad. He then added, “Go to where I have sent you”. Years later, a dear one told me that he planned that on […]
In the early days of marriage, once there is a disagreement or a conflict, I would keep asking Irewamiri in the midst of our conflict that, “What is the Holy Spirit saying to you now?” She would not budge. After the conflict is resolved, I would ask again, “So what was the Holy Spirit saying to you”. Irewamiri would say, […]
I had injection abscess when I was in Secondary School. On the day that it would be incised, I wore a free-flowing top to the hospital. When it was my turn for the surgery, the first thing I pulled off was my cloth as I laid naked on the table of surgery. I came to the hospital with a growth […]
A couple of years ago, I rented an apartment. After the old occupants moved out, I and some others had to do some clearing out of the apartment. We made a lot of discoveries that tell a lot about the lifestyle of the former occupants. The unwelcoming sight of used condoms stuffed in a bottle hidden in a corner on […]
Just some three weeks or so into courtship, our planned meeting for a study was not going well. Every question I asked Irewamiri was met with a one-word answer. After all attempts failed, I decided that we change location- we drove to a quiet location and I began to probe again. Well! I did not know when the tears began […]
We spent the night at our friends home. We had an appointment to keep up with in the morning. As we packed our things to leave, I noticed we had not laid the bed. I began to do a rush work of laying the bed- some parts of the sheet were still rumpled. As I made to rush off, the […]
