IF YOU WANT MY ATTENTION, THEN LET'S TALK ABOUT NIGERIA AND AFRICA OUR BELOVED CONTINENT - APOSTLE FEMI LAZARUS.

-


If you want my attention, then lets talk about the future of our beloved country and our continent as Africans. 

I am very clear, my stance is clear and direct.
I am a free man, and not a slave to any sect, clan or opinions. Those who don't stand for something will fall for everything. 

Growing up as a child there are things I didn't understand about my parent's decisions, some, I was angry about, and others I just ignored and moved on from. Now as a husband and a father, I understand. I have moved from judgement, to asking for grace for my personal life.

While we read about the past, we must never forget, that today is tomorrow's past.

I am very aware of the times that we are in, particularly, how crucial it is in the future of our continent as black people. I know my role and I have made peace with it.

Let me leave you with these few conclusions I have made.

If the only purpose of christianity is ONLY to make heaven, you should have been taken out the day you got born again. We are here to fill this place with God's glory, in simple terms, bringing heaven to earth. 

A christianity that ignores the reality of the earth is an enabler of evil, and when that evil comes, not even your prayers can change it.

Those who stayed behind to build Africa's learning curriculum knew what they were doing, and it is working perfectly. The past will be repeated in the future, as long as they don't know the past. 

Social media is a 21st century weapon of war, if you doubt this, then listen to the PM of Israel's speech again at the United nations.

The quality of leaders a people have is a reflection of the quality of the people. Your president was once a citizen, he was taken from among you.

Nothing divides people of faith like envy and jealousy, nothing divine citizens like religion and tribalism, nothing divides your oppressors like your rise to knowledge.

A people that don't know the stories of their fathers will beg on the oppressors of their fathers to oppress them too, it is simple engineering.

A silent church in the face of evil is a betrayal to everything Jesus stood for.

Femi Lazarus. 

Quote me on these.

MY GRACE STORY by Jonathan Olakunle Olanlokun.

MY GRACE STORY   My name is Jonathan Olakunle Olanlokun. I was born to the family of Late Deacon Joseph Babatunde Olanlokun a Librarian of the University of Jos and Late Mrs Caroline Oladunni Olanlokun, a fashion Designer and Caterer. My mother was adopted by Miss Barbara Epperson, an American Baptist Missionary and Social Worker to Nigeria upon the death of her own biological mother, eight days after her birth at Iree, Osun State in 1953.  Miss Epperson  nurtured Caroline, my mother from birth to maturity, in the company of friends and caregivers. Caroline later became Miss Epperson’s interpreter, translating Yoruba to English for easier communication among the people of the community. Miss Epperson in return taught my mother how to bake cakes and other confectioneries. My mother, from the stories, I heard was a very beautiful and caring mother but I did not enjoy this care for long. My mother died in March 1978 at age 26. I grew up without motherly love...

NO JOB IS SMALL, WHEN IT'S DONE WITH INTEGRITY.

She caught my attention during my recent tour of Niger Delta as Nigerian Spiderman ..… not because she’s beautiful (even though she truly is), but because of the strength she carries quietly within her. She is a cleaner. Yes… a cleaner. But what moved me was how far she has taken that responsibility. She doesn’t just sweep floors or tidy offices, she goes outside under the sun, bends her back, rolls up her sleeves, and washes the buses 🚌 of her transport company with her own hands. As I watched her work, something in me became emotional. In a world where many people feel “too classy,” “too fine,” or “too educated” to do certain jobs, here is this graceful young woman… choosing humility over pride, choosing dignity over pretence, choosing honest work over easy shortcuts. I walked up to her and praised her, truly praised her. Because her kind is rare. Her kind is disappearing. It is not every day you see a woman who is both beautiful in appearance and beautiful i...

President Clinton lifted the homeless Veteran.

"On a bitterly cold December evening in 1997, President Bill Clinton was leaving a holiday concert at the Kennedy Center when he noticed a homeless veteran sitting outside the entrance, shivering in a thin jacket and holding a cardboard sign that simply read 'Marine - Desert Storm - Hungry.' What happened next shocked everyone in the presidential motorcade—Clinton immediately stopped, took off his own overcoat, draped it around the stunned man's shoulders, and sat down on the freezing concrete beside him to talk. The veteran, forty-two-year-old Marcus Williams, later recounted to reporters that the President didn't ask him what went wrong or lecture him about getting help—instead, Clinton asked about his service, which battles he'd seen, and whether anyone had properly thanked him for his sacrifice. Secret Service Agent Larry Cockell documented in his memoir that Clinton spent twenty-five minutes sitting on that sidewalk in the bitter cold, and when...
