My Internet Presence

Yaay, it always feels good to write....and i still wonder why i am not writting as much as i should. I should really consider making money from writting oh...Anyways, guess what? I found a long lost friend. Or rather, she found me. Shout out to Moni Sonde-Olatunji! Grin*
So i am neither on facebook, Twitter or instagram....i used to be  though but that was in the very beginning until i realized it wasnt of any precise benefit to me. I am a private person and i like my space... But for this attribute,I should have considered full fledged lifestyle blogging like Sisiyemmie☺
 Anyways, Moni checked me up on the internet and found my blog but without any contact details. So i decided to use this medium to add at least my email address for anyone else in search of me!☺😃So folks pending my mega bloom...I think it suffices to say that:
 I am Omowunmi Aderoba-Adeniyi. I like to write it as Omoaderoba Ayaadeniyi( meaning d child of Aderoba and the wife of Adeniyi)
I attended Fountain School, FGGC Oyo and University of Lagos and i can be reached via: thesire205@gmail.com.😀
Thank you Moni for making me know that i do have an internet presence that needed an upgrade....fingers crossed till my mega bloom....grin*
Blessings!

The Doctrine of Tithing & others.

It is no gainsaying that many Christian doctrines are being criticised daily by Christians and non-Christians alike. Infact, almost every teaching in the Bible has been criticised or misinterpreted even from the time of  our Lord Jesus. Little wonder why people castigate pastors for preaching about some of these doctrines. Buh hey! the gospel must be preached no matter whoose ox is gored. If you cannot preach it, let another who believes in it, do so. Our Job is to be like the Berean Christians and go back home to search the scriptures.(Acts 17:11)
There is indeed a great divide about many issues in Christiandom, e.g Church adminstration,Speaking in tounges, Prophecy, Dressing, Tithes and offerings, Dates and Time, e.t.c but I have learned in my walk not to argue these things..(Titus3:9)
One of my favourite lecturers in school usually says and I quote "Religion is a dogma, u either take it or leave it!"
Are you confused about any of these doctrines? Then, PRAY, ask the Holy Spirit to teach you the right thing to do. Ask him to help you understand and give you an encounter. 2. Read scriptures about the said doctrine. 3. Test and see...(Malachi 3:10).
 I remember my disgust as a young Christian when I hear a group speaking in tounges, I felt it wasn't just right and I even had scriptures in support of my reservations but now....I know better...I have tasted and know the power, the refreshment and the answers that come from praying in the spirit..
As for tithing, I won't preach about it too, just try it and see... I personally won't guarantee you immediate returns if you are hoping to hit a jackpot, but I can guarantee you a sense of fufilment, gratitude and joy...Well, that's what I feel when I pay my Tithe, Yeah, I feel so grateful to God not just for the money I have but for the ability to give a fraction of it in Honour and appreciation of the only true God, the giver of all good and perfect gifts and of course because I have given, I am confident of receiving.(Luke6:38)
Today, I am a stay at home mum, yet I have EVERYTHING I NEED. Perhaps, my days of 'working' and constantly tithing speaks for me....Oh taste and See folks!
Shalom!

On being a Full Time Mummy

God be Praised, I am a Mummy, a Full time Mummy, a Stay at Home Mum(SAHM)! I am so much of a Mummy that I try to remind myself always that I am first a wife to the most awesome husband in the Whole Wide World*grin*. So what do I do apart from changing diapers, feeding,playing with my baby and household chores???? I am always on the Internet! Don't know what I will do without my phone really!  Google has been my surest companion! If I see a dot on my baby, I ask Google to confirm what it is! As Internet savy as I can be I still don't find all my baby questions answered especially naija baby questions! Perhaps I should start a typical naija baby blog because even Mamalette has plenty oyinbo things....
All that aside, I must say it's not so easy being a 24/7 mum,  I do crave for breaks very much but my darling daughter wants her Mummy 24/7. Sometimes, I am frustrated, sometimes I am sick and sometimes I just want to be alone or do something else without my baby nearby, buh hey I am just stuck! I always console myself with #thistooshallsoonpass#.
Did I hear u say get a creche or nanny, my dear, if I do I would defeat the financial purpose of my being a SAHM.(There are varying purposes and reasons for being a SAHM)Honestly, I absolutely do not regret being a SAHM, Indeed, no one told me the road would be easy but I do know for sure that it's a worthy route. Are u wondering if you should join me on this route? There are a few things to consider, I would mention the top three considerations.1. What is God saying to you? do U think He's got your back? If He got your back, trust me you would feel so at peace with your decison irrespective of your circumstance or what the world thinks! .2. Your Husband..please forget it if you do not have an awesome husband who's with u on this route. 3. Your Personality/character/lifestyle...Today is not a day for emphasis or explanations but please and please, if u are not ready to make lifestyle adjustments, be submisve and conservative, just forget it.  If Finance is not a consideration for choosing to be a SAHM, we might be operating on a different pedestral buh for me, my husband and I considered it cheaper to so do. Let me also add that the decision to being a full time mommy shouldn't be borne out of laziness because it's a lot of work especially without a nanny or daycare! Indeed, it is real work!
At the moment my world revolves round my baby and I am doing my best to enjoying it while it last. Soon she wouldn't want mommy around her all the time and I would bask myself in the memories of today... Cheers to all Mummies!
