I am SAVED

21st Oct 1993.
This day about 7pm 18yrs ago. I was walking back from dinning hall in Federal Govt Coll Ugwolawo. Kogi State. I was in company of one Enemaku Adukwu. Behind the then Uredo house senior hostel;I was stopped by one David Adejoh. He was my senior by one year,a strong member of FCS. He preached to us,I accepted Jesus as my lord and saviour.
I was born into a christian home,I got born again many times in sunday school at Fourspuare Gospel Church Idah Kogi State. Sister Racheal was my teacher,everytime she told us a story of hell as kids,the next thing was an alter call and all the class would run forward. At home we prayed daily,morning and night,with support memory verse,to be recited on Saturday and I was so poor at remembering chapters and verses so dad would always run me down while Victor(my younger brother) could remember anything so long as it was from a book.I never had a day I could call the day I got saved till this day 21st Oct 1993.
18 years down the line and I can tell you that making that decision that day marked the beginning of my journey. Its been tough as I rise and fall and I rise again. One thing I must say is I am still standing.
Walking with God is best appreciated when you look at the journey not the events. Holistically I would say God has been faithful. I have never been able to ignore God. I have struggles but I always keep trying to work out my salvation with fear and trembling.
So to David Adejoh and everyone that care to speak about Jesus even when it seems like everyone has heard the message already;I say thank you and thank God for the courage to speak.
A seed may look small but plant it in the right environment and you'll be amazed what it becomes. I am a seed. I walk on water. I am a promise kept. I live cos God lives. I am not ashamed to say I fell but am standing again. I believe God is in this business call me.
My friend,don't take for granted your journey of faith. It look small but its worth it. Keep inching closer to where you were forged out from...God.
Remember the day you were called and bless him that called thee. If you have not made a decision,today is another day. Whisper under your breath,Lord Jesus,I believe. Come into my life and be Lord of all. I repent of my sins oh God. I need you always...Amen!
