This conversation has been shared with permission from the Reader. I have tried to simplify our correspondence as much as possible, as it was a rather lengthy chat as I tried to get to the crux of the matter. I hope you are blessed as you read. Feel […]

Dear Ufuomaee, “hello ma, this has been bothering me for sometimes now. It is kinda complicated. without making much fuss! I want to know if i really need to start a relationship on the basis of love,or I just needed to push n love will grow over time. […]
“Good evening ma. I’ve read some of your write ups on LC. I must confess they are very good & helpful. Without much ado, I have a question to ask. I’m not in any “boyfriend – girlfriend” relationship because I don’t want to be for now but I […]
The following correspondence happened via WhatsApp, over a couple of days, and there was some back and forth to ascertain what the real issue was. The conversation has been shared with permission by the lady concerned. Good evening Ufuomaee. I’ve a problem and I really need a matured […]
What follows is a transcript of a chat with one of my readers. We started addressing the issue in question, but it turned out that the real issue was more pertinent, and I think you will be blessed to read. She has given me permission to share. Thanks […]
There was a guy I dated before I met my husband. He was not the kind of guy I usually went for. Usually, I date guys around my age, but he was almost ten years older. He wasn’t very handsome, but good looking enough. He was also someone […]
It had been a few months, and I knew something had changed. I didn’t want to believe it, I couldn’t bare the thought. I tried to explain his behaviour away, tried to think that perhaps our problems were circumstantial, and that we would soon overcome the rough patch. […]
(This post has been revised) While musing on a discussion I had with one of my readers today, I remembered my past, and how hard it was to hear and obey God in the midst of my own strong desire and passions. I wanted to please God, but […]
I recently concluded a two-volume fictional series called An Emotional Affair, to illustrate how easy it is for such a stronghold to take captive a marriage. It was also to illustrate that God is able and willing to deliver us all, and that we must be as gracious […]
Christmas day had come, and Lola was past her due date. She was getting restless, as she had hoped to deliver before Christmas. Mama had come over as planned to help out before the baby arrived. She was a Godsend. Lola was able to put her feet up, […]
Back in Lagos, Bolu, Lola and Folarin were oblivious to the new turn of events in Danny’s life. Danny, though having much wealth and influence within his industry, had been very discrete and, so, was not well-known, nor a celebrity by any means. Nothing would be leaked about […]
Danny left the Church building still reeling from Bolu’s hug. He could still feel his big strong arms around him, squeezing him. Danny hadn’t been hugged like that before. It was…comforting. Strangely so. And what Bolu had said about God loving him was just…too much. He couldn’t take […]
Bolu was in his office, thinking about Ifeoma, his Secretary. Something was the matter with her. She had been behaving very oddly since they resumed work this week. She was not her usual professional and efficient self. She had somehow disorganised his filing cabinet, in the name of […]
Danny laid in bed on Tuesday evening, thinking of Lily. He recalled their last encounter at Oyinda’s house over the weekend, and remembered how she had looked beautiful in her black pencil skirt and pink lace blouse. Seeing her again had made him realise that he’d really fallen […]
