Grateful

You know, I want to rush in here and just put up a post so that I would have put up a post for December of this year 2016. Yes that's true but I really am grateful.
As I left church a few minutes ago (after setup), I thought to myself about how it still hits me that I am actually alive, to see the end of 2016. This was one year really...but God did it. I feel it wasn't my most 'spiritual' year but it was amazing nonetheless.
Ah! Bad things happened but more real is our faith though! Its been tough living that out many times but its all I have actually got. God really is all I have got! He at His word for me, my family and my friends.
I'm here toiling with the idea of not going for crossover service...but I'll be going.

Most times I just think out: just give me Jesus. I really just want Jesus. I know I have Him...but that relationship that those who we read about in the Bible had; I mean, the audacity of the 'in my name you will cast out devils'. That Abraham-with-God kind of friendship. The realness, I mean look at Elijah and all these guys. Men like us? I want that realness with God. No serenren.
These are the ramblings of my heart. I'm already going to go late for the crossover service but let me go. Let it start me off with a 2017 yearning, pursuing and actually growing relationship with God.
2017: Gloria! Glory be to God for my 2017.

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...
