My Acada Story

Image
Story story? Story! Once upon a time...oh don't be shy now, we've all got one to share. No matter how 'gentle' you were in school, people and situations (apart from exam time o...lol) must have stirred your survival instinct or adrenaline at some point. Your acada story are gists centered around school experiences, especially in cases where God delivered you. I'm not just talking about scary boarding school tales like 'madam koi koi', 'Bush baby', 'gbomo gbomo' or some random unproven gist like the ones my cousins used to share with me each time they were on holiday and I wouldn't dare go pee alone at night weeks after. Let your acada story feature you as the lead character and be true. Story can be from primary, secondary or under graduate level.  I get plenty gist o. Let me drop some to inspire you...hehehe #myacadastory 1- Finally,  I gained the admission o, feeling fresh,  poised to study , but to have fun too. Of course I wasn...

Happy new year friends! Thanks for reading my posts 8 years running... I was recently invited to speak at the maiden edition of the Single! Married! Fulfilled! SMF Conference which held in Lagos,  Nigeria on the 26th of December,  2015. It was tagged: Whatsoever State. So Whatsoever  State you're in right now, here's a little bit of the take home to guide us all year long. Many ask, worry, search out ways to be fulfilled,  whether as a single or married. Here are some tips the Holy Spirit gave me; 1. BE THANKFUL ALWAYS - Being thankful attracts goodwill & you sure need a large dose of that soup. Psalms 103:1,2 , Philippians 4:4 Gratitude has been known to midwife unlimited favours. Be thankful for everything to everyone. Thank God for you ,your life, your family,  your job, for even your challenges because they make you even appreciate his capabilities and awesome help right on time. 2. POSITIVE CONFESSION - do a brain detox, negative thinking causes...

GOD IS FAITHFUL #tributetotheking2

The last few months particularly, have been very eventful,  especially being the Music Director of the AG-Leaders Domain Choir Intl., the youth choir of Assemblies of God church,  Surulere,  Lagos. The leaders felt prodded by God to take on the challenge of an album in 2015. The thought seemed daunting,  but we strategized and trusted God for everything including songs, funding and help in every way. Worthy of note is the fact that many had never written a song before then. And so we asked Baba God, then declared open season for song writing.  The result was outstanding. Someone is already saying what's the big deal about a music album. Truth is, we'd seen NO CHOIR within our fold , on a national scale, come up or trive with a music album that permeated the market,  society & christiandom. This is with great respect for many who worked on this path and will be encouraged to do MORE after this groundbreaking single from AG LEADERS DOMAIN CHOIR. ...

MYSTERIOUS VOICES

Mr.  Kunle Adebayo  was sharing his vision of www.godschannel.tv with me and mentioned how God always speaks to him in the bathroom. I quickly told him to bath more often...lol. Don't look at me like you don't hear it too. Don't raise your eyebrow like you've never asked yourself this question, 'am I crazy? Am I hearing things? Is this God speaking or just my subconscious talking? This idea is outlandish,  won't people call me crazy?... '. Perhaps you're right about the crazy part. #LaughingOutLoud I remember hearing Mr Ubong King share at a singles hangout program i recently coordinated, how he usually (hearing a mysterious voice in his mind) receives radical ideas that change his life and transform his finances while he's sitting on the 'throne'. That's his toilet seat actually. Lolz 😄. Mine happens at odd places and positions,  some of which I've blogged about. It's amazing!  Hope I'm not speaking over someone'...

Beryl Ehondor - A Poem of Me

Image
Amazingly this world is made of words. We still use words everyday, everywhere and in every way as we live. Words are so powerful,  they make or Mar a person and anything at all. Every thing visible or not has ears, so they respond to words. Review, cook and season your words today before dishing it out. Do not waste this innate , God-given power. Someone wrote a poem just for me. Wow! Impressive & deeply appreciated! Feel free to write yours o...lol...I'll publish too. The lines all seem deep, each heavy with meaning. I'm a word person,  I'm gonna spend time on this one. I think it was God inspired. I love it, so I'm sharing to those I care about too, and you reading, are top on this list. At times God just speaks mysteries; We connect the dots to get the picture It feels good to be thought of and appreciated with such deep words without deceit or strings attached. Appreciate a friend today.  You never know what impact you'd be making. To my dear new ...

SHIT HAPPENS

It happened again.  This time for real and outside my house... ...I couldn't flush the toilet. Okay I'm laughing here but it's a serious matter.  We need to talk about toilets. Many people especially some adults need to be toilet trained, re-trained and prosecuted when they default any toilet laws. I Imagine this law will be sponsored by the ministry of public health , toilet affairs unit maybe...lol. For me this is important because I've had strange,  painful experiences, heard bizarre stories about toilets. I think its wicked for any adult to walk away from a dirty toilet and do nothing to tidy it.  Whatever your country,  there are toilet issues, so feel free to share. I once heard of a girl who used to stand on the toilet seats, then one day it broke and her buttocks was stitched in more than 20 points. Let's not mention those toilets where maggots are having a rendezvous , even dancing shoki....#puke loading . Google images of pit toilets ...

Bus-stop Crash Course

Image
When the Holy Spirit wants to give you a crash course,  you best better pay attention. I needed to be somewhere early this morning and chose the bus stop closest to my house to catch a fare. As soon as I got there,  I asked myself why I even chose that point and was about to move to the main park when I heard be patient.  So I waited. I watched many buses come past me, I watched as employees disembarked rushing to their desks like minions,  I watched as mothers ferried their reluctant children to school,  as the street cleaners swept acting like they had iron man's armour on so could withstand a hit by an oncoming vehicle... I was getting tired.  Twice at fifteen minutes intervals I pleaded to be allowed to go to the main bus stop,  but I was restrained by the Spirit. So I waited. The sun was already out and on its way to work,  coupled with my black lawyer-like dress, I was already sweating. If only I'd been  forewarned of this traini...
