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.

URGENT






I looked into the mailbox and what did I see?
A letter stamped urgent from who could this be?
I opened it up quick, this is what it said
“I know you are alive but did you know you are dead”
You are alive in the flesh but dead in the spirit
Distracted by the world, the gentle whisper you couldn’t hear it
Don’t wait till its late going down the pearly gates
That Jesus died for your sins in him you should put your faith
The ways of the world only lead to death
But, be born again truly and take your first breath
Take the first step towards the journey to heaven
God is in control even if he has to feed you through a raven
It might sound so surprising, but now you have to choose
You can have the whole world, but your soul you will loose
Don’t take this for granted, you are running out of time
The kingdom of God is at hand, read between the signs
