Grace So Amazing Foundation

 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 



... and we took pictures


    ... Buses were provided
This is my beautiful bus top where I got my ride back home.
It was a time we'll spent.
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

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
