Is it real ? My Father, Still not ready , no where near, this man helped shape me into the person I am today.
I was a teenager who was not ready for God , he spoke to me and let me go ( life was for parties and fun ) , I am so sure he went back to intercede for me , a few months later I was back ,rededicating my life .
He didn't just tell me about the Father ,Son and Holy Spirit from the pulpit , his life exemplified it
He was a man with his own faults but he showed how with the help of the Holy Spirit we could all better , and better we became ,looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.
He loved his family ,loved the members with all his heart , didn't forget a name or what you told him , when Pastor Bimbs passed on to glory and I went to pay my respects ,he was asking me about an issue I mentioned to him , that incident never left me.
I am proud to have called you my father in the Lord, you just needed to be human for Pastor Taiwo to extend his love. a lover of God and all things God, a Worshipper( I can loud this one gannnn), truly humble and unassuming, a Leader of leaders, a Pastor of Pastors and a Father of Fathers, a true General. I love you Pastor Taiwo Odukoya , your legacy carries on, You deposited so much into the lives of so many people we all keep replicating .
This beauty is my beloved Goddaughter and she is 18 today, a beautiful, responsible ,smart lady , May you step into new levels of greatness , Go conquer the world my darling it's your. Happy birthday sweetie. @kiki.odubanjo@ronkebabs_odubanjo@babs_odubanjo
This is the place my story changed, the people I met , the message and life lived by my father in the Lord Pastor Taiwo Odukoya , he did not just tell me about Christ he lived it , intimacy with the Holy Spirit was evident
God gave me @ronkebabs_odubanjo my ride or die from almost day 1 and then much later friendship mi @funkyfreshfunke The department and Woman of God who loves & serves God fiercely ,showed and taught to use my talent @segunwilliamsabiola
Happy Anniversary my Family
See 50 looking awesome, Happy birthday Babatope ,I celebrate you and all that you are, your person, integrity support.
One of the great things about you is your care for people, I recollect so many times when we are all together and when I have to leave you would ensure I got a cab (when I didn't have a car) to making sure I got home safely.
You are a rare gem, a wonderful husband to my one and only @ronkebabs_odubanjo , a great father and friend.
May God bless you and keep you ,may he cause his face to shine on you and give you peace.
THOMAScalled (Didymus which means the twin aka "Didi) of the famous 12 of Jesus Christ . A series of events led to him being called doubting Thomas
Life had given him a name, the same way our reactions to the storms of Life can make the world and even those closest to us give us a negative name.
I can relate to this story because like Thomas things happen, and we all live in season's of faith and doubt
For a while I left Jesus on the cross, forgetting that he is risen and has given me "ME" power and authority with full and equal rights .
My hope is that we are able to realise the fullness of who HE is and the reality of who WE are thereby living a complete life, like Thomas did
Just as Jesus did not leave Thomas as doubting Thomas, history records he became consistent, faithful and full of fire, so also this period I'd like to let us know we don't have to keep bearing that name that we and others have called us .
God loves ME and LOVES YOU TOO
P.s although not much is said and known about Thomas twin (Teoma) in scriptures, the writer took the liberty of creating and giving her a voice.
Happy Easter everyone.
