the blogger testifies 4

ok like I should have done this yesterday...so sorry people...things!!!
Its been a wonderful week, I had an exam...I passed half like I said, but I did not pass the other half after 2 attempts. But GOD showed HIMSELF so strong and gave me comfort, more than 2hours of typing on my system, HE spoke to me in clear terms. I though I was going to cry throughout..at least for about 2-3 weeks, but when I got to my room after seeing my result, saying "thank you JESUS" and obviously doing the ritual of crying, HE gave me a heavy dose of HIS presence. Friends, GOD would not let you go until you get it right (thanks Pastor Dupe!). HE personally taught me that. I asked some questions and vented my heart in poetry, and immediately after that, the over 2 hours experience started. HE showed me how stubborn I was, then I realized, its one thing to listen to an advice, another to take it and yet another to act on it. This week this blogger must testify...in poetry (this is just a small excerpt of PRAISES, it happened before HE spoke):
I sit in the darkness of my room,
Tears fill my eyes
Some fall, some stay hooked
But then THOU had taught me to say…it is well

Did I praise wrongly?
Did I study wrong?
Did I study at the wrong time?
Did I do anything wrong?
But then…I can still see YOU being faithful in this.

Nights I cried
Praises I sang
I know it confused the enemy
But you make all things beautiful in YOUR own time

Never had I failed an exam since 2005
Times I did not read
Times I did not sleep
Times I read
But then I know…I have faith for this

YOUR WORD is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path
Guide me LORD
Lead me LORD
Walk beside me
I give my life to the potters hand

YOU have never lied to me
YOU will never lie to me
YOU can NEVER lie to me
YOU remain the ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE ONE TRUE GOD

Jump said the enemy
he laughed now
but WE shall laugh thereafter and best
YOU alone have the final say
I praise YOU because YOU will never change

I thank YOU because You won’t give me what I can’t carry
I praise YOU
I exalt YOU
ARIBITI ARABATA
OBA TAKUNTAKUN
THE GOD THAT SAYS YES AND NO ONE CAN QUESTION HIM
THE UNQUESTIONABLE ONE
JEHOVAH MY GBASKI FATHER
...........................................................
FOR YOUR WORD WHICH IS YOUR BOND….: “THOUGH MY BEGINNNING WAS SMALL, YET MY LATTER END SHALL BE GREATER”
THANK YOU FOR MY FRIENDS THAT HAVE PASSED THIS COURSE..THANK YOU LORD FOR EVERYTHING
AND TODAY…I THANK YOU LORD FOR THE GRACE TO PRAISE YOU IN THIS STORM….. FOR IT IS NOT OVER YET….UNTIL YOU SAY IT IS OVER…
I LOVE YOU LORD…THIS TIME AGAIN…IT IS MORE THAN WORDS…

YOUR struggling servant and friend
This has been my best season so far...I did not know what HE meant when HE said the endorsement...now I get HIS gist!!! stay blessed!

Hmm…so I’ld no longer be listed as in a relationship on fb…it is well oh! The thought of the news spreading all over twitter has been in my head. The ‘eyah’s ‘ I would receive has been making me shake…but mehn! I’ld rather stand for God. I had to tell my dad about it…dunno if his parents were informed as his mum still called me some days ago. Thank God dad wasn’t furious as I expected. He just said ‘the Lord will work it out for your good!’ Amen oh! Tope and Toye were (and are) a great support and so was mum. (and is...love this woman!) Everyone seems to be saying it is well …dunno if that’s a new viral word! It sure would be well sha. ...................................................... [ eyah's: aww's or sorry]

"if you love me you'll wait for me!" Those sweet words pierced through my heart and vented out of my mouth. How could he say such a thing? How could he possibly mean it?...no! ....................................................................................... "...if you love me you'll wait for me!" Those words forced out of my mouth, I didn't know what else to say but sure enough even in this pain I knew that I was doing the right thing. How could he say such a thing when he knew I genuinely loved him?...before marriage? Never...but I didn't want to loose him. "Tolu but how could you say you love me but yet hide one thing from me?" he said. "Felix how can you say you love me yet you keep me away from the altar?" Now that sounded sarcastic but I was serious....dead serious. "So you think this is a joke right, I'm not refusing to marry you, of course I know what the word says, I know what tradition says but just once...

Hi people...trust your week has started with great smiles. I'm sorry there would be a hold on the developing story (or rather there has been a hold on the story). This week, I'm putting up an entry that is poetry. Its written by a medical doctor by name Ekundayo Otuyelu. I'ld love you to read it and not copy it...if lifting is needed please contact me so I can contact him. Thank you and have a wonderful week in Jesus name, Amen! Sickle Cell: A Prenatal Diagnosis. On the darkest night, when even the sputtering flame of the meanest candle is denied me, I will still cling to my memory of today. I have tended the dying, prayed with men and women hopelessly clinging to whatever shreds of life are left, and all of it has stirred my soul. But how different it is to celebrate life at its beginning. To hold a wailing infant in my arms, celebrate a first cry which brings joy, to marry the dream of two into one dream, one life, one heart. Such a thing I did today, The woman was lov...
