You see this young man I'm about to talk about, we have a lot of history together, matter of fact I have known him all my life...he was there before I was born and since then he has never left and I am rest assured that he will not leave. He has not just been my brother, he has been a friend, an adviser, a confidant, a shoulder to cry on, a father, an encouragement, I look up to the fine young man he is gradually becoming. *I know you can't wait to hear his name*.
On my fourth day of gratitude, I thank God for elder brother, Segun Oladele...I thank God for giving me the grace to call you brother, I thank God for all the examples you have laid down. I mean every one that knows you knows that you are a no nonsense man but in all that, you are sweet and understanding, compassionate and always there. I could not have asked for a better brother. Who is to say we have not had our ups downs, every true siblings have...you know those days i secretly wished he wasn't there to always be in my face and my business (only a few would understand that) but now I thank God for those days, I thank you for saving me from myself.
I thank God for all the things he has brought you through, for bringing you closer to Him at an early stage and making you know who He is and therefore showing your younger ones the way. I thank God for giving you the strength to weather the storm of life. I remember those days you would come to our room (Michael and I) praying for us in the middle of the night and I'd be wishing you just leave my head alone and let me sleep in peace. Thank you for your prevailing prayers, they are making ways for both of us now.
I thank God for the things you have achieved in life, and for those you are yet to achieve. I believe that you have laid the foundations for your breakthrough and that's all that is left for you right now breaking through every stronghold. I thank God for your life and the impact that you have made not just in my life but in the lives of everyone that has come in contact with you, for all your sacrificial efforts to make everyone around you a better person.
Thank you big brother for always being a true big brother, I love you and I pray that the rest of your days will be better than the past. You will not have a better yesterday but you will have the best tomorrow. Thank God for giving me the best out of them all.
