Tribute to My Mother by Pastor Ezekiel Afolabi Oladosu
Says “My Mother believed I had a destiny to fulfill.”
When we talk of mothers, my mother is a very good example, and I can never forget her. She was a woman that loved her children passionately. She was very caring to both her biological and non-biological children, she was very kind and generous. She was full of wisdom and native intelligence.
As a young boy when I had a challenge of a life threatening sickness, when I was completely written off to the extent of advising her to abandon me to take care of other children, my mother chose to take care of me, because she believed I had a destiny to fulfill.
It was that sickness that made us to accept Christ. That was 1978 when she was 46 years, 46 years ago. Both of us surrendered our lives to Christ on hearing that there was nothing Jesus could not do. Thank God the healing took place and we continued the journey together. Even when I became a minister of God, my mother believed in my calling and she stood firmly with me.
I want to thank God today that the joy she saw on me was greater than the sorrow she witnessed.
She lived a selfless life and she was very accommodating. She was not a mother to her biological children alone but to all others that grew around her.
There was no where she lived without having adopted children she took care of as foster children. She was ever ready to spend for others. She related well with everyone within and outside her family.
She loved all her grandchildren and she was a role model to them. She would not keep malice with anyone. Her forgiving spirit was top notch.
She was a mother with attractive sense of humour. As a mother she was very well versed in local praise singing and panegyrics. She was much loved by the grandchildren.
They always loved to gather around her during Christmas when she would make Ankara materials for all of them and pray for them as well. She looked forward to seeing her great grandchildren and she saw them.
She was a very strong believer in prayer and the word of God. She served God till she breathed her last. She used to have vigil in her house when she could not be going for regular church service. She was ordained an Elder in her last Church.
There is no denying the fact that we would miss her sorely, but by the grace of God we will continue to keep her memories and the good virtues she stood for.
May her soul continue to rest in the bossom of her creator.
