This post deserves a huge OMO!!!

It’s actually crazy because we never get to share stuff like this in the moment, when they are happening. The human thing would be to wait till the storm is over then activate the Naija “Testimony Time” mentality and share when the storm is over. (Read that in R Kelly’s voice)

Why am I saying all this. Firstly, I’m proud of you. You might be convincing yourself that there isn’t anything worth being proud of but I promise you there are. For talking about this, for holding on even in the midst of this crazy time, for not allowing this temporary defeat box you in and make you contemplate giving up, I am proud of you Matilda.

Secondly, I’ll like to encourage you from my favorite book - The Bible. There’s one funny verse of scripture that never fails to muzz me whenever I consider it. Isaiah 43:2.

It says - “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon you”

My question is, what am I even doing in the Fire and Waters in the first place. I thought I was supposed to be in the arms of the father living a soft life. Well, that’s not how our story goes.

We will go through the waters, we will most definitely go through the fire but we aren’t alone. We have an assurance that Jesus is in our boat and will calm every storm. He might even be sleeping but he’s here. Talk to him. Be honest about how youre feeling and what you’re dealing to him.

Ask him to help you calm this storm and he will show up like he did for his disciples on that boat.

He loves you Tilly and we (your fans) do too.

God bless you my G.

Lastly, I wish I could say to send your aza but your bro is broke too make we see how e go be sha. This week we’re entering into looks promising.

I Dey for you my G.

You go Dey alright las las.
