And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-7.

"For the gift of life, I say thank you, Lord. For sound health and mind, I am indeed thankful. For Family, Friends, Associates, Colleagues, and Lagos state as a whole, I say thank you, Lord. I am indeed the one who came back to say thank you, Lord.

"Another 25th of June has come to remind me of my life’s purpose and God’s ultimate plans. I have embraced a life of service, and a heart of compassion and empathy.

"Have I been misunderstood? Yes

Have I been misquoted? Severally.

"But through it all, my heart, my intentions, my conscience, my efforts, my actions, the works of my hands, and the grace of God will always speak for me.
Therefore, I will rejoice and be glad, for this is indeed the day that the Lord has made."
