“DADDY, IS THIS YOUR SPONGE?”

Olive walked up to me in the living room and said, “Daddy, your sponge is in your bathroom”. She held on to a sponge that looked just like mine. I told her it was not mine. “Daddy, who is the owner?” was the next question. I responded that I was not sure. I told her to return it to their […]

BEDWETTING TALES

I had some very interesting bed-wetting tales as a young boy. What shall we say to the dreams that tell me I am already in the restroom or that I had run off the football pitch to a bush so I can now ease myself? I only wake up to realise that the restroom was still my bed. Did it happen […]

TAKE LITTLE OPPORTUNITIES SERIOUSLY

During my service year, I was a student at the Insight Christian Leadership School. It was a full month of training school. We had a daily roster for leading prayer and giving exhortation. Coincidentally, the day I gave the exhortation of 10 minutes was the day of the General Pastors Meeting for the ministry. All pastors from various branches were […]

IT IS STILL THERE!

I was driving home one day, and I noticed something I had not noticed before. I had driven the same way. It was over a year of taking the same way. What did I see? I saw the foundation of a building. Why did I not see it earlier? It was already overrun with thick bush. Why did I get […]

WILL YOU DISAPPOINT?

We were on a family trip some months back. Halfway into the trip, the car developed a fault. We spent about four hours on the roadside. It was not funny. Interestingly, this was right after breaking down a day earlier. All plans had to change. The car over time shows the same fault despite several repairs. I concluded that I […]

DO NOT DESPISE THE KNOWN BECAUSE OF THE NEW

We were preparing for a major meeting years ago when I was still a Corp member. It was a Christian Concert with a focus on Charity. We wanted excellence. Because of this, we raised some funds to invest in some new sound accessories to augment what we had already. We bought most of them a day before the concert. The […]

NEVER ALLOW STRANGE INTERPRETATIONS

A young woman once called me and mentioned that someone asked her to reach out to me. She had a dream three times that she was picking snails. She was told that it meant she would be poor. I told her to do something simple: Go to a restaurant. Order a meal and request a snail instead of the regular […]

BE ALERT IN YOUR SPIRIT

I have lost phones twice. They both happen back-to-back in 2005 and 2006: I boarded a cab heading to Ife from Ibadan. I slept off. I woke up just as the car got to the campus gate. I alighted from the cab and made my way to the campus. As I entered campus, my consciousness was restored. My phone was […]

THIS IS WHY YOU CAN NOT BE CARELESS

I was walking with my dear friends, and we had to pass through a spot where everyone had to stretch a bit to climb to the next level. They all chose the option of climbing and they did it with ease, but I could not do the same. I walked to the lowest point that wheelchairs could pass easily and […]

THE BEAUTY OF DIVINE INTERVENTION

A while back, we were on the search for a house to move into. We saw the images of a particular building. It looked like what we wanted, and we could use. We scheduled a visit to the property. The agent communicated with the owner of the house. We fixed a time for inspection. He spoke to the owner just […]
