‘Your Father might be DEAD, but HIS WORDS are not DEAD…’ From UYO With INVALUABLE INSPIRATION & ETERNAL LESSONS…

I, The Preacher was in the city of Uyo with my dear wife and fellow Preacher, Preaching the Glorious Gospel According to Child Rights Protection and Family Strengthening…

I Preached the Gospel to Teachers, Parents and Students and I had a great and exceptional moments, particularly with the commendable hospitality of our great hosts, Rev. & Rev. Mrs. David.

I, The Preacher encountered a woman and a moment that has kept me sober on my knees till this LORD’S day since we departed Uyo on Friday, October 7, 2016..,

After speaking to the receptive parents of Beulah International School, who received the Glorious Gospel with great joy and ovation on their feet…then my most memorable moment of the entire Missionary Journey came…

I, The Preacher was by our iProtect Academy Stand, answering further questions and taking responses, when I got into a conversation with a single parents of the highly esteemed institution of learning…

She lost her husband two years ago or thereabouts, who left behind two precious children…

The husband, before he died made a promise to their first child, that his 10th birthday will be celebrated outside the country…

Now, when the child was going to turn 10, he discussed with his mother, the promise that his father made to him and expressed doubt if the promise will ever see the light of day now that the father was late…

I, The Preacher was invaluably INSPIRED by the response of the mother…She simply made my day…She said to her son, your father might be DEAD but his WORDS are not DEAD…They are YET VERY MUCH ALIVE…Mummy will fulfil to you the promise dad made to you…

The inspirational single mother told me that it was not too convenient and many people have done their bit to discourage her, but she was determined to preserve her late husband LEGACY…The tickets were booked and the trip will be a REALITY…

What is the LEGACY?
The LEGACY is not the fulfillment of the promise the late father made in the strict sense of it…
It is a LEGACY of your dad and I had ONE VOICE…We were UNITED…
This establishes in the Child’s SOCIALIZATION the ONENESS in marriage and a commitment to promote same in his FUTURE HOME…

What is the LEGACY?
The LEGACY of TRUST…
That adults KEEP their WORDS to their precious CHILDREN, even when the ODDS are the TOUGHEST…

What is the LEGACY?
The LEGACY of helping her precious son recognise forever the POWER in WORDS and PROMISES made and he will not take his WORDS lightly to his FAMILY and his WORLD…

What is the LEGACY?
An INVALUABLE LEGACY…
SACRIFICIAL in its ADHERENCE…
ETERNAL in its IMPACT…
INSPIRATIONAL in its EXECUTION…
TOUCHING in its NARRATION…

Do have an INSPIRED week and I remain Sober on my Knees on the LORD’S day.
