Jesus turned Water to Coke!

It's last Sunday of the month, the drinks have finished and it seems like half of the population have not gotten drinks..Where did all the drinks go to???

Sis Wunmi says let's pour water into the empty bottles..Sis Titi laughs hysterically... Bro Laolu and Bro Jeffrey have gone to buy bags of pure water satchets..

After 15 mins, 5 crates of Coca-Cola bottles are filled to the brim with pure-water, if we are going to do this, at least we can do it to its full..

It's time to go and share the "water-bottles", they have just entered the church hall, when..."JESUS..., then, BAM!!!, a loud thud is heard at the entrance, It's Sis Titi on the ground...

What happened?...Splashes of cold water meet her face, She has woken up...Thank you, Jesus...What happened??

She said, " I have always read the Bible as a book of stories, some times as non-fiction, most times magical, other times as romantic but never as real-life stories... Jesus turned Water to wine, I thought it was a metaphor until today...

If any man had told me, I would have cursed the man as a liar and blasphemer. How?? I was there when Sis Wunmi told the brothers to fill the coke bottles with water... I laughed..What was her plan?, I thought.

I was sent on an errand by the Pastor and I was just at their backs when they were carrying the crates into the church, I saw the water filled bottles but I heard my name and turned to see who was calling me...only to turn back and see Bro Jeffrey giving someone a bottle of coke, I mean Coca-Cola coke..I thought I was seeing double, just for me to see Bro Laolu also carrying bottles of Sprite, Fanta and Bitter Lemon from the same crate..I don't know what happened next...

Jesus turned Water to Coca- Cola Coke, Fanta, Sprite, Soda water...

Jesus is real o, The miracles in the Bibles are real...They are not bed-time magical stories formed by half-sleeping drunk men in the name of inspiration...

Ignorance...

Sitting comfortably in their semi-lavishly furnished parlor on those leather sofas that make "squish squish" sound when you make even the slightest turn, this conversation began, after Okon, Bola and Kenneth just finished eating full bowls of Eba and richly garnished vegetable soup with chilled pure water from Mama Ekong's buka...

Okon: Eh...This Mama Ekong food no go kill person..Ehn..Una see Gloria when she waka come from church this hot afternoon.. Who dey go Church on Saturday?

Kenneth: A no no ooo, Saturday, wey person suppose take flex, rest, then, flex again...

Kenneth: Wetin concern God with the matter wey we dey yarn, Everything, God, We chop, God, We sleep, God, We Shit, God...we no fit talk now..God..

Okon: No mind am, on top say him pidgin no pure, Na so so God..Oya tell us wetin we talk wey vex God?

Bola: Ehn, Kenneth abeg bring my two Bibles come. Come see wetin God talk about this matter...In Romans 14..

1.
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don't see things the way you do.
And don't jump all over them every time they do or say something you don't agree with—even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently.(MSG)

2.
(NLT)For instance, one person believes it’s all right to eat anything. But another believer with a sensitive conscience will eat only vegetables.

3
(NLT)Those who feel free to eat anything must not look down on those who don’t.
And those who don’t eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God has accepted them.

Okon: Jesus, so this kind thing dey for inside Bible...

Bola: E never finish...

5
(NLT)In the same way, some think one day is more holy than another day, while others think every day is alike.
You should each be fully convinced that whichever day you choose is acceptable.

6
(NLT)Those who worship the Lord on a special day do it to honor him.
Those who eat any kind of food do so to honor the Lord, since they give thanks to God before eating.
And those who refuse to eat certain foods also want to please the Lord and give thanks to God.

10
(NLT)So why do you condemn another believer? Why do you look down on another believer?
Remember, we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.

Kenneth: Ah!!! Me too o, I no know say this kind thing dey inside Bible...

Bola:
12
(NLT)Yes, each of us will give a personal account to God.

13
(NLT)So let’s stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.

14
(NLT)I know and am convinced on the authority of the Lord Jesus that no food, in and of itself, is wrong to eat.
But if someone believes it is wrong, then for that person it is wrong.

20a
(NLT)Don’t tear apart the work of God over what you eat. Remember, all foods are acceptable...

Okon & Kenneth: God, forgive us o, we no know...

Okon: Now wey I know, No be for my mouth una go hear that kind nonsense again...

God, I don't have...

Sometimes, we don't know what we have until we see what we don't have...

Health in the face of Sickness
Life in the face of Death
Wealth in the face of Poverty
Liberty in the face of Bondage
Being Whole in the face of being Deformed
Joy in the face of Sorrow
Having it Easy in the face of Struggling
Having someone to Love in the face of Loneliness
Living with Purpose in the midst of NFA's(No Future Ambitions)
Living in Abundance in the face of Scarcity/Want
Having a Job in the face of Joblessness
Riding in Comfort in the face of Hustling in sweat

We are blessed with infinite blessings each day but the only way to be appreciative is to thank God for what you don't have...4th Feb, 2017

Happy Sunday People!!! Have a blessed week ahead... #Inspire me.
