Hello everyone, trust you had a great night. I thank God for keeping us all through the night, He is worthy to be praised. Clears throat! So I went for a carol service in my mum's church yesterday, and trust me, I had a good time(lol). I felt at the time I joined the service that God planned it for me as a gift specially from Him to me,don't be jealous; ask for yours too. Earlier yesterday, my mum had sent me two songs to listen to and know word for word(musically, we call that scoring a song). Honestly guys, I didn't score the songs as I was supposed to. Reason was I had my hands full at my desk, what I did was just to listen to one of the songs so as to be able to sing along. I wasn't self aware that my mum was serious when she told me that I'd be a guest in her own church, and would be leading the two songs(oops!). Seconds turned into minutes, minutes into hours and finally, the awaited time came. We got to the Church about 30 minutes into the programme a...

Good morning guys, trust you had great nights, mine was great; howbeit short. I am grateful to God for the breathe of life, I am grateful that you are alive to read this too. God is so good! Let somebody shout hallelujah! To the daily waka gist of today, I have two as against one. You know recently, the sequel to a movie has been going viral. Anyone and everyone wants to watch this sequel because of the hyping up by its producers. Of course, I caught the bug of the hype. Smiles. I finally got to watch the movie at the cinema yesterday, and my summary is not all that appears gold is gold. To the main gist of today, I wore a very nice pleated skirt to work today. This is actually my first time rocking this skirt. You know, being on the petite side, you have to be very selective of whatever you wear. My mum even commented that the skirt looks good on me (you all need to meet my mum, she is a fashion rocker, she is good mehn!). I knew it was, but I felt it was a bit too big but yet...

Hello everyone, it's good to be here this morning to update you about my daily waka. Trust you all had great nights. To the gist of the day, have you sometimes had thoughts within you that when you offer some prayers, it wouldn't move above your head? And then, unexpectedly, you got instant? Yes? Then you can relate well with me. On my way home from work yesterday, I was in the car with my Mum when I felt the unfriendly pang of hunger. You remembered that I told you of the amala story yesterday? So I ate just amala and fish stew during work hours, of course without ewedu. In my Mum's exact words, "amala is like water." Back to my gist, the hunger I felt yesterday evening made me feel like it was going over(lol!) I summoned courage within me and told myself to be patient till we got home so as to eat properly. Suddenly, my mum remembered that there was someone close to someone close to her that she wanted me to sing her a birthday song; yesterday was the woma...

MY CHALLENGE WITH EWEDU! One of my grandmothers calls me "omo oniye n'po (The child that has so many mothers)," of a truth, my mothers are plenty which transcribes into having many grandmothers. So to the gist of today, I was at one of my grandmother's place yesterday to spend the night after work hours. I noticed that most times I see grandma, she always wants us to take amala and ewedu with stew(Yam flour and blended or mashed spinach) for dinner. For this reason, I always pray in my mind whenever I am going for Grandma not to suggest amala and ewedu with stew; of course, the prayers goes unanswered. I guess God wants me to take more of carbohydrates for such a time as this, lol! As a result, my mind made me think that having a food restaurant where I manage won't be a bad idea. Did I mention that I am the one who prepares the amala? Oh yes! I have a professional degree in cooking amala, and it was conferred on me by my mum; smiles. The first day I mad...

I AM PREGNANT! As I got up from my bed, I realised that I had been counting the number of times I had urinated within the space of 3 hours. "This is the twelfth time," I said to myself. "I am not diabetic, and cannot be. It is not in God's plan for me." I reassured myself. I was still pondering trying to know what's amiss when a thought flew into my mind. "Nooo." I deliberately drawled, "it can't be." This would be a disaster and an unpleasant news. The thought continued and I noticed some changes in my bodily features. "Ah! Jesugbami(Jesus collect me)! Morogo(I see glory, lol)!" I exclaimed in utter unbelief. "I am pregnant." What would I do, how would I explain this despite my being an Ambassador for Purity? Then another thought told me to confirm first. It was then I remembered that I had a pregnancy strip in my room. Few weeks back, we had a medical seminar in church, I was a volunteer medical person...

Each day I get up from my bed, I find reasons to give thanks to God for sparing me. The minutes however differs; there are times it's so short, some other times,so long, and at some times it's just there. However, on some special days, I deliberately take a long while at the place of my devotions. I have discovered in times past that the longer time I spend at my devotion, the better day I have. It helps me keep my emotions in check- I can be very emotional. Okay! So to the story of today; I made up my mind to get to work early today, I set my alarm to wake me up gradually(I wake up gradually, lol), I finally left my house at 7:00am. Immediately, I rushed to the bus terminal to pick a bus or a bike;I didn't get to see that in time, favour finally beckoned at me, and I got a tricycle to convey me to where I was heading to-Agbado. I got a bike to transport me to the next stop at a very nice price too. When I got there, the Monday morning rush was so much that the queu...
