Yes, I’m born again. I choose to call myself a lover of God.

Well, I was born into a spiritual home, note that I didn’t say religious… lol.

My parents are ministers, so I practically lived in the Church;

I loved Church activities,

I evangelized, sang in the choir, engaged in a lot of religious practices in the Children and Teens department respectively, but I can say that I was just being religious.

I think my journey with God started 2013, when I was in ss2. I gave my life to Christ and was baptized. It was and is worthwhile.

It wasn’t all juicy, I had a major fall as I continued (University days), but His love picked me up. I met great people in the university. God used them to redirect my life. That was the beginning of a great chapter in my life.
