About Me

My photo
My life is my life and I will not trade it for anything except Christ, even saying that I still ask for strength on a daily basis to live by it. Life itself is a roller coaster with fluctuating emotions such as pain, agony, victory, defeat, so on and so forth. However, I believe it is the uncertain situations in life that shape us into the individuals we are today and are to become. Basically, what I am trying to say is, your past can shape and influence the future in a major way. My real name in translation means “Born in Wealth.” I was born in Lagos, Nigeria in the year of the Dragon and as far as I can remember, it’s been a bumpy ride. Growing up in Nigeria was intense and a bit tedious, for lack of better words. It is a “No padi for jungle” time zone, with the motto of “Shine your eye,” which pretty much adds up to "every man for himself." It is a place where everyone wants to go to heaven, however, no one wants to die to get there. Growing up as a child, I learned a lot through folktales and such. I remember sitting by the burning firewood at night listening to my grandmother's stories of enlightenment. These stories had morals that shaped my thinking and mentality today.

Hosanna








My buckler and the horn of my salvation, you are my high tower

There went up smoke out of His nostrils, and fire out of His mouth devoured

My adversaries trembled …

You have wounded them that they are not able to rise

You set me aside, for I am truly consecrated and sanctified

There is no culture nor language, where His voice is not heard

Next to You before creation, in the beginning was the Word

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight

Those who don’t trust You are brought down and fallen: but we are raised, and stand upright

Father God, You are worthy of my praise and adulation

I will continue to give thanks to You no matter the outcome or occasion

You parted my seas of disappointments, failures and sleepless nights

You led me to the land of my Canaan: an enchanted land of delight, paradise

You reach forth and asked my dead dreams and desires to rise

You confirmed in my spirit that the devil, Satan, is the father of lies

You led me through my wilderness and fed me manna

Glory to your name in the highest, I will definitely call you Hosanna
