in christian-trail •  7 years ago 

Teach Us Lord How to Number our Days Alright.

PSALM 90:12

12 Teach us Lord to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

The Yorubas have a proverbs that is translated as:

There is no one that God is not doing good for unless for those that say that their own is not enough

(The Yorubas' are the people of South-western Nigeria)

Beloved, today is the second time that I will be posting a gratitude challenge on the Hope Beckons series. This might continue for a while because I have a lot to be grateful from now till the last week of next month.

Today, I am grateful for the increase in the number of years spent on planet earth by two great personalities in my life.

First on the list is my very own blood, dad's pet and the last born of the house in the person of Ayomide Oki. I celebrate you today as you turn plus one. I say may your days be long and fulfilling in Jesus' name...(AMEN!)

The second is a good mother, nation builder, a destiny shaper, a disciplinarian, a leader and an administrator par excellence, Mrs Adeyemi O.A. She is indeed a great and a complete woman in and out.

She is currently the principal of Agbara Community High School where she is setting the pace for other to follow. I love this woman for her foresight and her high sense of duty. I was privileged to have been taught by her during her days as a classroom teacher in high school. I can tell you categorically that she is a no nonsense woman and at the same time a friendly and lovely and a caring mother.

I celebrate you today as you mark another milestone on planet earth. I am grateful to God for your personal and professional achievements as a nation builder. May the favour of God continually rest upon you, give you longitivity in good health and establish the works of thy hands in Jesus' name...(AMEN)



The 'Hope Beckons' series started last year as a way to motivate as many as possible through the Holy Scripture(Bible) with prayers to accompany each series. Hope Beckons series aim at giving hope to everyone out there. It is the needed capsule to inspire us to greatness by standing on the promises of God.

Addition to the 'Hope Beckons' Series

This year, I intend to make the 'Hope Beckons' series more inspiring and cheerful by introducing: 'Hope Beckons - Share&Care. Hope Beckons- Share&Care will only feature every mid-week(Wednesday) as an act of kindness to my followers on the Hope Beckons series.

The modalities to participate for the 'Hope Beckons - Share&Care' are under way and would be communicated to us in due time.

God Bless!

@hillaryoki ...I remain committed to your rising
