Introduction
I want to thank our Father in heaven , the I AM that I Am , The ominipotent, The Ominipresent, and the Ominiscience,who has given us the grace to be what we are today . May His holy Name forever be praised in Jesus name.
I was in my sitting room one bright evening when i started to hear some passersby greeting a neighbour in our Yoruba dialect signifying a greeting that conotes an arrival into the neighbourhood a new born child. The greeting was very warm and admirable and that instantly drove my mind back at the day a new child was born to me and kept reminding me of that glorious day and what first of all flashed to my mind when the first person to greet me uttered out to me and that was a nagging and slightlyvinsulting question that was supposed to bring out a pre- empting answer from my end but the breeze of joy that was freely blowing accross my mind and which covered every situation around me then prevented any kind of aggravating answer. But never prevented a deep thoughtvthat entered my heart.
I looked at myself all around ,using my inner mind to measure the lenght and the breadth of myself to see what have i got to be worthy of that wonderful gift God has given to me. Many desire it but do not have it. Many want it but never get it .Many are looking for it in prayer and in other way round but failed to get it. I then looked at myself again slightly scratched my hairy head in onward preparation to get the baby and the mothet out of the clinic. At this point ithought i was dreaming. But this was not a day dreaming.It was a fortune of reality that squrely enveloped me.
Getting to the hospital, i gave my wife still on hospital bed a warm and loving kissing at the cheek , hopefully appreciating her for the labour in carying and bringing forth my baby before going to peep through the new innocent baby in the colt.
One thing that switly crossed the border of my mind were those big and solid questions that were difficult to answer. The questions go thus:
1. Can you do this.? Actually only and only God can do it.
2. If you are given drawing materials to draw can you attempt to draw something close to the baby talkless of making it .The only answer igot on this was no. can not draw something close in resemblance . Even as shapeless as amoeba i can not boast enough to draw.
REASONS TO GIVE THANKS TO GOD.
On this point i would want us all, the people of the world to always adore and give honour to our mighty Father through His Son Jesus Christ. He is the only one who is worthy of our praises and honour and He would be forever be praised. Amen
