THE DAY DADDY FAINTED

My parents were classmates in the tertiary institution. During the examination, my father took ill right in the hall. He had his work tools as a Fine Arts student but in his words, “I just kept looking at the paper before me. I had gone blank. The stress had taken its toll”. He was almost collapsing when some of his […]

CHURCH IS NOT HERE

One of my teachers back in the secondary school saw me as I drove out of a supermart. He told me that he had sent one of the men in the church office to me. I wondered why. He then told me the reason. We have a huge banner in front of our church location that says, “Church is not […]

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO DROP?

I was stepping out of my office. I was scheduled to be in a small group meeting outside the church. Danielle noticed that I was about going out. She wanted to tag along. From that moment, anything I told her to do, she did it willingly. I told her to wear her sandals properly, she did it fast. I asked […]

THE DEPOT TAUGHT ME A LESSON

While we prayed around midday in the church office, the Holy Spirit impressed it on my heart to think of the activity of a depot by our side. I observed for some minutes. The Holy Spirit said, “Do you see cars coming with crates of empty bottles? Do you realise that they leave loaded? Do you know that most of […]

GO BACK HOME AND GET DRUNK

Many years ago, my dad worked as a bank teller. At the close of the day, he had a huge deficit that he could not trace. Despite all he tried, he could not resolve it. He went home worried. He had a bottle of alcohol in his fridge. He was just a casual drinker. He would normally take sips. But […]

CHRONICLES OF SOUL-WINNING

We had spent days praying for our dear friend. We knew she would be coming to visit us. It would be our perfect opportunity to share the gospel with her. One of the things that we ended up telling her was this: “The greatest thing we owe you is the gospel of Christ. We would be terrible friends if we […]

I WOULD HAVE KICKED MY PREGNANT WIFE

I woke up in the middle of the night with a kick to the burglary proof right beside the bed. It hurts so bad. I was having a dream where I was kicking a dog away. As I focused on the pain and my wife woke up with consoling words, I realised what God just delivered us from. If I […]

“DO YOU LOVE DADDY?”

Danielle began to protest as we left her grandparents house. She wanted to stay back with her grannies. However, we had to head home. On our way home, we stopped to get some fuel. I turned and asked Danielle, “Do you love Daddy?” Her response was a shrug of the shoulder. I asked again and she shook her head and […]

IF THIS EVER BLESSES YOU

We were visiting with a dear Father in the Faith some few months ago. While we sat with him late that night, I knelt beside him and told him how grateful we are for all the sacrifices that he makes for us- the teachings, the time and the access. He smiled and said to me, “You are the ones who […]
