*ADURAGBEMI* 

PART THIRTY SEVEN


They arrived at Pelumi's house, early in the afternoon. The driver was fast, from mowe to Abeokuta.

Adura was surprised, seeing the kind of house they lived.

"My God! Pelumi. You didn't tell me you stay in a mansion" Adura said

"Please don't start and let's go inside" she said and held her hand

"Daddy...I am back" she said as they got inside. Her siblings rushed out to welcome them.

"Where is daddy? She asked

"He has gone to church" Deborah said, one of her siblings

"I have something to tell you" Elizabeth said, the last born said

"Let's sit down first" Adura said as they all sat down.

"Daddy was ordained, as the assistant pastor in church and bro tope is the general secretary for the youth department" Elizabeth said

"Wow...Glory to God" Adura said as Pelumi looked at her with teary eyes.

"Thank you Jesus" she said as she knelt down, singing praises to God and tears were flowing down her eyes..

"Covenant keeping God, thank you Jesus for everything. You said you will change, and do that only you can do. And, you did so..

Jesus, I lift up your name
Jesus, I lift up your name
For there is power in your name
Power in your name o
Jesus I lift up your name


You have done, what no man can do
You will do, what no man can do" Pelumi sang. 
Adura joined her in singing and thank God

"I will just act like, I did not know anything" she said

"Yes, that's the best way" Adura said

"Elizabeth and Deborah, please help me carry those bags to the room" she said

"I think we need to call mummy now" Adura said

"Yes" Pelumi said

Stay with me as we journey together




 *PART THIRTY EIGHT*

Adura informed mummy about their arrival and also shared the news with her, she was so glad. While, Adura was discussing with her mother, Pelumi was also sharing the news with Pastor Jimi.

"Wow, this is a great new! I will call him soon" Pastor Jimi said

"No sir. Please, don't call him yet. I heard the news from my sisters and not directly from him" she said

"Oh...Alright. I will call him later, take care of yourself dear" he said

"And you too sir" she said and smiled

"I will dear" he said and hanged the call

"Why are you smiling? Adura asked. She was about answering, when her daddy and bro tope came in.

"Welcome sir" they both greeted

"My daughters, welcome. I didn't know you will be coming so soon" He said

"Yes sir, we wanted to surprise you" she said and smiled

"God bless you. Adura, how are you doing and how is your mother? He asked

"She is fine. She, also sent her greetings to you sir" Adura said

"Bless God" he said

"Hello oo,....I am also here" bro tope said as he waved his hands. Adura and Pelumi smiled as they greeted him.

"Me and you know, this isn't a surprise to you" she said and smiled

"Yes, I know" bro tope said and dad faced him

"Okay, so I am the only novice here" he said

"Yes daddy" they all chorused as Adura watched them and smiled.

In the presence of God, there is fullness of Joy.

"Hello, why are you so silent? Bro tope asked, as he moved closer to Adura

"Nothing sir, just observing and enjoying the atmosphere"  Adura said and smiled

"Okay ma" he said as Pelumi moved closer to them

"Hmm..what is my brother saying to sis Adura" she said and smiled

"Nothing much ma, just asking a question" Adura answered 

"Okay ma" she said and they all laughed.

"Now, what are we eating tonight madam? Daddy asked

"Before that, daddy is there anything you will like to share" she asked as daddy and bro tope looked at each other.

"Oh yes but, can we all pray first" he said. They held their hands together and prayed.

"Amen" they all chorused

"Okay...this old man here, has been ordained as the assistant pastor and this young handsome man, has been ordained as the General secretary for the teenagers in province 1, 2 and 3" he said

"Wow! Glory to God. Greater heights, grace and anointing. You shall continue to be a blessing sirs" Pelumi prayed for both of them.

"Congratulations Sirs" Adura said.

"Thank you my children. I have tasted of his powers and I say, it pays to serve God" He said

"Hmm...Yes sir" they all said

"Now, can the celebration begin. Pelumi and Adura, you both are in charge of welfare" he said and they all rejoice.

 *Hymn* 
It pays to serve Jesus, 
I speak from my heart.
He'll always be with us, if we do our part.
There's naught in this wide world can pleasure afford.
There's peace and contentment in serving the lord

 *Chorus* 
I will love Him far better than in days of yore
I will serve Him more truly than ever before,
I will do as He bids me, whatever the cost,
I'll be a true soldier, I'll die at my post...

I don't know, how many of us know the Hymn. We can sing along, and also make it as a declaration...

God bless us!

Thank you once again, for staying through out the journey. I really appreciate us!

Part 39, will be posted tomorrow by 8:30am

Stay with me as we journey together

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
