What I grew up to was ministry, but uh. Of course, I struggled to get into ministry seeing the things you know being been around pastors being the only son of a pastor and of a gender of I say I could see it coming, but I i did all I could to to dodge it, and I Remember this conversation between me and my dad one Night we’re walking so by the way he always takes me for all the minister’s conference as young as eight night and and then I will have to fast with him till we get to him in the night.

Like 10 o’clock – and I was – I would look at him like what kind of a wicked father is this, and then you know, I’m always taunted by my sisters, who look at me in the morning, like ah bye, but you know we had this conversation this night. I was in university and he said to me we’re going to pray. Of course we fought for the reason that everybody’s sleeping at home, you’re taking me to another night.

Just me, you and your prayer warriors. Why me And then we’re almost getting to the place and he asked me, I said: what do you want to become when you grow up, I said: well, I have everything planned out. This is what I want to do and he looked at me and said no you’re going to be in ministry, and I told him I said: did you sacrifice me on the altar? Because I need to know now – and then we had that conversation until we got to the place of prayer and then Boom people who were not there when we were talking about this in the middle of prayer.

I think I was between sleep and the word of the lord came from one of them and we both look at ourselves like, and I think it was at that point that I started taking my life seriously. I remember in school, people ask what we, What are you going to do from that point? Everything changed. I lost a lost passion in anything I wanted to become.

I don’t know it was just supernatural no pass no drive to so when people say in class. Oh, this is what I think i’ve become. I couldn’t say anything I tried to, but I couldn’t say so people looked at me like.

Are you sure you know what you want to do? I said sincerely, I don’t know exactly what is happening to me, but I think I might end up in ministry. So I i think that was a major pointer for me and that night I wouldn’t. I would never forget that wasn’t because I was holding a touch light.

I would never forget way up on that. As a matter of fact, when I go to illinois, I always go around that place Like this was a place where something shifted for me and then so I i think from that time I i started taking my life a bit more seriously, so I didn’t know Where I was going to unfold, but I started taking my life a bit more seriously, and so that was that, wasn’t anybody stepping into it. I think life is in faces.

You just go into these things. Like I wouldn’t say, There was a time I had to him. I embraced a lot after I passed on yeah.

I am like I embraced ministry. I could say that I embraced the actual ministry after he passed on. That was when I felt more uh.

You know so it was at that point. For me I was a point where I i knew that okay, So this is the path [, Music ]. You .
