It all started with my first copy of the Word for Today sometimes back in 2006.
I have always loved reading the devotional. Being happy that it was also distributed freely like Our Daily Bread I decided that it will be part of the devotionals we give out in TLF.
By Monday 20th November when I was still planning my trip to Lagos for the Experience, I saw on the inner cover page of the latest edition, that there will be the annual retreat of Grace for Amazing Foundation on the 2nd.
Since I would still be Lagos God willing, I planned to attend.
Even with the all night programme of the Experience, we still made our way to Jide Oki street.
Right there for my first time and for the 13th time, we had the Annual Special Prayer Retreat.
Oh what a place to be! I gave out our TLF brochure to the guest preacher, Pastor J.T, although l had not heard of him before, he spoke words of love and challenge. Among the great things he said, he said we should close the church doors and out to the streets and remote communities for that is where all we do is needed.
After the message, many people came to sing and give testimonies. Gifts were also given to certain key donors and everyone was given food, drinks and souvenirs.
Initially the calendars given did not reach my seat row and the man by me kept complaining.
I patiently waited and to our favour since the calendars were exhausted we were given books instead!
At about 3.18pm the programme ended
... and we prayed. We exchanged pleasantries
It was a time we'll spent.

... Buses were provided
This is my beautiful bus top where I got my ride back home.

God bless Grace So Amazing Foundation which make The Word For Today available.
We also thank Victor Eguare and the Ogunmefuns and all who make it possible for TLF to re-distribute the devotionals.
Thank you, God loves us, TLF
