The Great Father....Mr. B.D Olukomogbon
















"Baba Ola" as we fondly called you
There was never a dull moment with you daddy
You always had something of worth to say
Not only were your words timely, they always lifted my spirit
I thank GOD I was privileged to be your daughter *smiles*
It was an awesome experience while it lasted
I salute your tireless love and care
I look at myself and my siblings; indeed you did your very best with us, you gave us the best, trained and mentored us with the whole of your heart
I appreciate the fact that you gave us the best all round
You were a great father

 I remember cutting your nails
I also recall the evening drives round the city
The pet name which you called me still rings in my ears
You were never late for any event
And you always stayed in the house minding your business...lol
And how can I forget.....no matter what you ate, you always left some for us
You plate was never empty after you've had a meal
Even though we had ours
I cherish the moments we had
The lessons, the practical examples, the counsel, the pieces of advice, the prophecies, the blessings, the pronouncements and discipline are all part of the tools GOD used in shaping my life
You were an outstanding mentor in every way
Yours is a life to be celebrated
You came, you lived and impacted so many
Your life was an open book
With lots of examples to learn from
You never lived for yourself alone
But were more concerned of others
You were a father like no other
A great man you were daddy
You always had this to say ;
"Never grumble,
Never complain
Never murmur
But be thankful"
These words have shaped my life
And I will keep running with them

 I will miss the Sunday calls
I always looked forward to them because your declarations equipped me for the week
I'm glad I have some of them written down
I will keep running with them

 We know you are in a better place
I doubt if you miss us...lol
Cos Heaven satisfies all your needs
Plus you will be busy worshipping your maker

 We miss you plenty
You might no longer be here on earth but I'm most delighted that it doesn't end this way
We still have an eternity ahead of us to spend together at the feet of the Master
I look forward to the moment where we will all be worshipping the Father together

 You are certainly being missed
Rest on Dad
Yspot!

    Jesulobatemi Alagba..you have been a blessing not just to me but to everyone around you. Everyday I thank God for the day I met you cos I can't imagine life without you. You are my special gift from God.  One of the things God told me to learn from you is how to love. I keep learning everyday from your heart of gold, you are selfless and you go out of your way to do things for others. Thanks for been a plus factor in your generation, God will surely reward your labor of love.   Like I normally say, you are the best guy ever cos you love me passionately, you lavish me with gifts generously and you pray for me fervently.

Some days ago, I was singing the song "I know my redeemer lives" by Nicole Mullen. As I sang the first line of the song; "who taught the sun where to stand in the morning..." the words hit me and it felt like I was hearing the words of the line for the first time. Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?                                                                                       Pause and think for some minutes… 💭 Did GOD sit the sun down after creating it to explain what is was made to do or that it was expected to rise in the east and set in the west?  Was there a tutor assigned th e responsibility of showing the sun how to rise, how to shine, or to tell the sun the perfect time to set?  or Did the sun require daily reminders to rise in the morning and give warmth and light to the world?  I doubt that..😶 So, if no one taught the sun where to stand in the morning, then how did the sun know where to stand?  Every appliance made or created is wir

We all watched as JDee tried to crawl on his knees some days back. Prior to this, he had been doing a great job crawling on his stomach, but the guy just can't wait to walk... Lol. So he keeps pushing himself.  Lessons: *You will always remain at the same spot doing the same things until you push yourself forward.  *Don't stop at the point or place where others think you should and neither should you stop because of factors like your age or your sex, or the fact that no one has ever done it before. You can be the first to break and set a new record. *Keep pushing yourself until you are all you can be.  *Don't let the barriers and mindsets stop you.  Eventually JDee did it... He moved one knee and we all went screaming.  Why did we scream?  *We saw the progress he had made even though, some would consider it so little, but try asking a mum who has been praying for her child to walk after so many years, she would consider that a great a
