Psalm 8
Hymn 513(SS&S) O God Our help in ages past......
Praising the Lord in time of grieve
In times like this we are encouraged to give thanks and praise the Lord for we are told that in all things we should give thanks -Ephesians 5:20 1Thessalonians5:18,Psalms 107:1,Psalms118:1 Psalms106:1,1Chronicles16:34.
Exactly 2 years ago our friend and brother was called to be with the Lord
We sorely missed him and we thank the Lord for keeping his family and his friends.
The Lord had been a refuge and a fortress for his immediate family now headed by his wife Mrs Bola Awe.We thank the Lord for His faithfulness for He promised and assured us that He will never leave us nor forsake us -Hebrews 13:5b,Deuteronomy 31:6, 8,Joshua1:5,
Olumide did ordinary deeds and simple forms of human helpfulness, he had a generous spirit that is what endeared him to us all .
Whatever we do in word or in deed, we should do it heartily to the Lord and not to men. God takes notice and it delights our Heavenly Father .
Let us continue to support the family in our prayers and also through phone calls,text messages etc ,this goes a long way in gradually reducing the devastating impact of the loss.
May the soul of the departed continue to rest in peace Amen
