How can you NOT believe in God when octopuses dream and otters have a favorite rock they carry around in a little skin pocket and cows have best friends and bees are out there communicating the coordinates of flowers through dancing and they have regional dialects?

Cats are purring at frequencies associated with bone healing? Forests get absolutely incinerated and respond by growing flowers? Dolphins literally invent names for themselves and yell them across the ocean? Penguins are waddling around Antarctica looking for the perfect rock to give their partner?

CROWS REMEMBER YOUR FACE. THEY TELL OTHER CROWS ABOUT YOU. THEY TELL THEIR CHILDREN ABOUT YOU. YOU CAN HAVE GENERATIONAL BEEF WITH A BIRD. I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS.

Goats have accents. Rats laugh when you tickle them. Elephants mourn their dead. Whales make songs and then OTHER WHALES LEARN THE SONG and suddenly everybody across the ocean is singing the new song.

Monarch butterflies are born knowing how to fly thousands of miles to a place they have never been.

Sea turtles hatch out of an egg, immediately sprint toward an ocean that they have never seen, disappear into it for like 3 decades and then somehow come back to the same beach they hatched on.

Birds can see colors that we humans can’t see. There are colors out there right now that we don’t even get to know about.

There are sea slugs that eat algae and use the chloroplast/chlorophyll and then are just like…photosynthesizing. And they’re super adorable.

There are mushrooms communicating underground. There are seeds sitting in the dirt for decades like “no actually I will wait. It’s fine.”

Squirrels plant trees because they forget where they put their snacks. Relatable.

A CATERPILLAR GOES INTO A LITTLE BAG THAT IT CREATES ITSELF AND DISSOLVES MOST OF ITS BODY INTO ORGANIC GOO AND REARRANGES ITSELF, GROWS WINGS AND THEN LEAVES. WHY IS THIS NOT MORE BEAUTIFULLY TERRIFYING TO PEOPLE??

And you’re telling me a tiny acorn knows how to become a huge tree? It just has a blueprint inside itself?

Your body started as ONE CELL.

ONE.

And that cell divided itself into a brain that can think about its own existence and eyes that can look at stars and hands that can hold somebody else’s hands and a heart that runs on electricity without you even asking it to?

The iron in our blood was made inside a star??

We are walking around on a wet rock covered in bioluminescent oceans and singing whales and laughing rats and birds holding lifelong grudges and flowers exploding out of fire and somehow we’re supposed to act like this is a normal place to live?

We’re supposed to act like this is all just a random, accidental sequence of events?

The only time many of you have mentioned "TARABA" was when you're reciting your estate and Capital.

If you've ever sipped a cup of Nigerian-grown tea, bought kilishi from a mallam or enjoyed a smoky plate of pepper soup with beef so tender it fell off the bone, there's a very high chance it traces back to this land.

Taraba is home to Chappal Waddi, the highest mountain peak in Nigeria, Taraba has over 80 different languages due to different ethnic groups in the state.

It is the 3rd largest state in Nigeria by land mass. Taraba is blessed with something farmers can’t manufacture - Land, Water and a remarkably diverse Climate.

• Taraba is the only state in Nigeria where they grow every crop in the country. There's no crop you find anywhere in Nigeria that's not growing in Taraba.

• Gembu town in Taraba is the coldest place in Nigeria, reason why Taraba climate grows Apples and other cold weather dependent vegetables

• Taraba is home to one of Nigeria’s most important tea-growing areas. The cool highlands of Mambilla provide the perfect environment for tea cultivation.

Taraba Highland tea is the best tea in West Africa and 2nd best in Africa.

• The state is also known for coffee production, particularly around the Mambilla Plateau, where the high altitude and cool climate create favourable conditions for coffee farming.

• Taraba has 10 major rivers and their tributaries provide water that supports fishing, irrigation and farming.

• Taraba’s fertile plains are major producers of rice, maize, yam, cassava and other food crops, feeding markets within the state and beyond.

• One of the biggest Crocodile 🐊 farm is in Wukari in Taraba state

Taraba is estimated to hold around 5 million cattle, making it 3rd largest largest livestock-producing states in Nigeria, alongside millions of goats, sheep, and pigs.

Because of this, fura da nunu (fermented milk and millet) and kilishi (sun-dried spiced beef) from Taraba's herds end up feeding tables far beyond the state's borders.

• Taraba is one of those places where you can move from tropical lowlands to cool mountain terrain without leaving the state. Chappal Waddi is the highest peak in West Africa.

And then there is the food in Taraba state!!!.

From pounded yam and tuwo to locally produced rice, vegetables, fresh fish and traditional dishes prepared with ingredients grown right there, Taraba’s agriculture is deeply connected to its food culture.

The state is also home to diverse peoples and cultures, including the Jukun, Mambilla, Kuteb, Chamba, Tiv and many others.

There's no way we discuss Agriculture in Nigeria and Taraba name won't be mentioned.

Shout out to Taraba farmers may the nature continue to bless y'all.

My both kidneys failed at 31.

I went through Dialysis three times a week. I was dying slowly.

They put me on the transplant list and said I might not last. One night after dialysis I could not stand the pain. I shouted to God until I had no voice left:

The next test before transplant showed my kidneys working again.

No dialysis since. It's been four years and they still work.

The specialist said he had never seen such a thing.

I gave the rest of my life to God.

As a Muslim, I have a question for my own community.

Why do we demand freedom to build mosques, preach Islam, and wear the hijab in non-Muslim countries...

Yet in some Muslim-majority countries, churches are restricted, Christian evangelism is criminalised, and converts live in fear.

If religious freedom is a right for us, it is a right for everyone.

Truth does not need censorship to survive.

🚨 Warning! 🚨

Nobody tells you this when you’re signing up for Christianity or deciding to grow closer to God.

You think you’re getting a relationship with God…

Plot twist: You’re getting a new Manager.

His name? The Holy Spirit.

Congratulations! You have officially been removed as CEO of your own life. 😂

From now on, He’s in charge of:

Your life
Your decisions
Your character
Your heart
Your steps
Your diet 👀
Your health
Your everyday life

You’ll be about to say something, and He’ll whisper, “Don’t.”

You’ll want to text that person, and He’ll say, “Delete it.”

You’ll plan something, and He’ll reply, “I have a better plan.”

You’ll try to ignore Him after sinning… and somehow that conviction follows you everywhere.

He’ll remind you whose child you are, protect you from choices you’ll later regret, and keep drawing you back to obedience.

He even has opinions about your friendships. Yes, some people won’t make the list anymore.

He’ll help you discern people’s true intentions, teach you how to worship God in spirit and truth, and shape you to become more like Christ every single day.

So if you’re inviting the Holy Spirit into your life…

Get ready.

Because you’re not just gaining a Helper, you’re gaining the most faithful Friend, the wisest Counselor, and the perfect Guide.

And trust me… His leadership is far better than ours. ❤️

My toxic trait is not letting anyone else clean, because it's not clean unless I clean it and then getting angry when no one helps me

@FAONigeria @NifesimiOgunkua @husseingadain @FMEnvng @FAOWestAfrica @FAOAfrica @FAOclimate @FAOnews @FAOSocioEcon @FAOLandWater @FAOInnovation @crossriverstate This is such a great initiative.
Prioritizing coastal management and nature-based solutions is so vital for climate resilience in Nigeria right now. Especially with how the rain as been falling so often lately.
Thank you FCDO

Some days ago my husband gave our toddler one hot scolding

This small man of God likes to throw his toys from a height and watch them make loud sounds as they hit the floor

I’m not sure why

So my husband scolded him seriously

Even me in my mind I was like “is this shout not too hot for this small boy”?

(Later we will talk about how mothers will spoil their babies if you leave them because I don’t like people shouting at my baby🥹)

Anyway back to the story

That’s how the small man of God started crying o

Even me I felt my heart melt

Guess what this boy did though?

As he was crying and tears were streaming down his face, he started crawling towards his daddy

Went to him and put his arm around his neck

My husband too held him and started loving up on him

In that moment I think the Fathrhood of Christ became real to me all over again

The fact that a true son doesn’t run away from the Father even in the face of chastisement

He runs towards the Father more instead

A scripture that comes to mind was when Jesus shouted at the disciples and said “have ye no faith”??

And their reply was “Lord help our unbelief”

As you journey in your faith walk with Jesus, whenever you see your failings and your mistakes, don’t run away from the Father

Go to Him

Plead for mercy

Ask Him to give you more grace and increase your faith

Be like my small man of God.

Blessings.

"Jesus was not born on December 25!"

Oshey!

Ogbeni, we are not doing baiday for the Ancient of Days.

We are celebrating His coming to this world to save sinners.

Diabetes was not born on World Diabetes Day. It's just the day we focus on...

Wo, never mind.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[Sheila of the Most High @sheilatebra]

God, I'm sorry. I'm reeeeeeaaaaalllllllyyyyy sorry for all the times I begged for forgiveness and ran back to sin.
