A New Year and A new Decade- Are You Ready?

We are ending the year 2019. A lot has happened since the beginning of the year until now. Some successes have been achieved while we experienced some failures also. All in all we are thankful for the experiences that the year brought us because we have become better with these experiences.

As we look back, we must recall that every moment matters. It is the culmination of our experiences that have made us who we are.

The real question now is, are you ready for the coming year and decade? The year 2020. The year in which the world achieves most of the vision it set for itself in what is known as vision 2020.

Just keep hope alive and have faith that better days are coming and you'll get there only if you keep going.

The Divine Initiative: Season’s Greetings:

I know what the devil will say to you.  He will say to you, ‘You are a sinner!’ Tell him you know you are, but that for all that you are justified.  He will tell you of the greatness of your sin.  Tell him of the greatness of Christ’s righteousness.  He will tell you of all your mishaps and your backslidings, of your offences and your wanderings.  Tell him, and tell your own conscience, that you know all that, but that Jesus Christ came to save sinners, and that, although your sin be great, Christ is quite able to put it all away.

- Charles Spurgeon 

Merry Christmas , Happy Holidays, and a very successful Happy and fulfilling New Year!

Happy Thanksgiving, You’re the bomb!

Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner? And then he said to them, ‘Rise and go; your faith has made you well.’ 

(Luke 17: 16 -18)

Saying "thank you" is imperatively important not for the person we are thanking but for us, so that what we are thankful for can be whole and permanent.

On this thanksgiving season,I want to appreciate everyone who has been part of the story of my life. I appreciate every contribution you have made in making me who I am today and who I will become tomorrow.

You're the bomb! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and friends.

THANKSGIVING

In a few days the whole of America will be celebrating thanksgiving, a season where friends and family gather together with the aim of showing and expressing appreciation for everything that the past year has brought them.
Aside the meals that feel kitchens across the country, it is the expression of humanity, the sharing of time together, the laughter and moments that make the experience worthwhile.

It is a time to whisper "a big thank you" to your loved ones for the times you've shared and to commit to all the times the future may bring.
This is not a time just for the cameras, no fakes. It is a time to express your real self.

  Some of those that you will be gather around may have said things about you that you don't know. It does not mean you should stop smiling with them.

Only you can tell why you feel so appreciative of the life you have.

Laying my mother to rest.

This Saturday, June 1st 2019, my late mother will be laid to rest in her holy village of Dordoekofe opposite Ada Technical Institute on the Ada road. She died after a brief illness on February 24th, 2019. These are very difficult and challenging times for me and my family.

I take consolation from the words of John Newton which says
Though dark be my way
since He is mu guide
it is mine to obey, it is His to provide
The bitter is sweet, the medicine is food,
though painful at present, t'll cease before long
and then, o how pleasant the conquerors song
