I AM NINE YEARS A PRIEST TODAY!
Praise to God and people of goodwill !
Introduction:
It was 9 years ago today that I made the final decision of becoming a priest after about ten years of seminary formation.
My inspiration to become one were hung on the perception that I wanted to reach out to as many as I could. I had always envisaged an environment where everyone had equal opportunity; this is utopia but of course we could push it to a certain human extent.
Through life, I have met different persons . I have met those who love my dreams and aspirations, those whose life have challenged me, as well as those who are/were ready to give me a tap on the back and a ride on; to these I am grateful. I wanna say thank you.
I have had people who stood up for me and spoke for me and the people or projects I cherished. They showed generosity to me and opened their hearts to me like their blood. Today more than ever, I count all these as God’s blessings to me. I wanna say, thank you 🙏.
Today I am 9 years. All praise to God and people of goodwill. I ask for your prayerful best wishes from you my beloved. Life is a precious and sacred gift from God and must be cherished and protected by humans here on earth.
Today most parts of the world is threatened by the absence of peace. Wars occasioned by many factors.
Fear seem to take over the stage of life. We pray for quick return of peace to where peace is threatened and life insecure. May the lord of peace send us his peace.
