#MY_BIRTHDAY (ITS A LONG BUT DEEP NOTE) so, every year, on the 9th of September Ill celebrate my birthday, I will be celebrated and all sorts of nice fun and etc. for a long time, I had a prayer point LORD IF ONLY I CAN KNOW MY BIRTH DATE FOR REAL Ok, wait a minute!? What am I talking about huh!? Well, never ever judge a book by its cover. I quote that to say that every real human have real issues they must admit that the solution is GOD and GOD ALONE! So, I remember primary 2 or so, I asked my parents what my birth date was as I needed to fill it into my forms and examination papers etc. and so that I also know as I was 11yrs or so then. To cut the story short, the birth certificate was no where to be found!!!!??? And no one was able to ascertain what the date was in particular, all they knew was it was September!!!! Hmmm!!!! Till date that very first birth certificate is nowhere to be found! Fast forward:I really wanted to know why every of my other siblings certificate of birth are intact and not mine. At some point I contemplated the thought that MAYBE I WAS ADOPTED!!? Oh yes!!! Almost every other year, I would ask again and again and again. My mother would calculate and still not be able to get it right (HOLD IT,DONT JUDGE HER YET) I would ask my brothers too, they seem to also not know for sure....Everyone just knew it was definitely September as Im the last kid!!! #ANSWER_TO_MY_LONG_LASTING_PRAYER : So, recently my mother was admitted and needed to do an operation. The doctor would ask questions and them asks in particular why my mum is so afraid of surgery and etc. and he asked her mama! Have you done an operation before? . . . And she said yes, long time ago when she needed to deliver a child with a lot of trembling in her voice. Curiously, I wanted to know who that was You are the one my son....you were due two days and it wasnt an easy one. We had to resort to an operation . . . Automatically it doned on me in the first place why my birth certificate wasnt found as it seems the whole drama and situation then cramped a lot of things. Probably,it was left somewhere. . . #TRAGEDIC??? Naaaaaaaa I dont see it as TRAGEDIC!!! :) Fast forward to few weeks ago after she was discharged from this hospital in Lagos after the surgery she had to do, she and our eldest sibling sat down to calculate things. They went back into time and started to recount the events as they unfolded. And they found out vividly that it was #SEPTEMBER_20TH AND NOT #september_9th #MORAL : 1. Never assume your problems are not solvable. For every problem,theres a solution. Stick to your lane long enough to see it happen for you.... For every prayer, theres an answer. . . You just have to persist. I found out my real birth date after over 30years of living! 2. God will use a situation that doesnt seem like a pleasant one to sort you out. (In this case, my mum was in the same place where my twisted secret story started...the hospital again was where I found out that I was a miracle child as the doctors were almost not sure I would make it....hence my name, EROMOSELE - an answered prayer ) 3. In your situation, there is GRACE sufficient to carry you through your confusions and chaos! I was confused, self chaotic and delusional for many years until about 10 years ago when I started to put myself together, I realized that my pain isnt as bad as someone elses . . . So I picked up my broken soul and just kept living and believing that one day I would know my real birthdate! 4. I did a whole lot of wrong stuff just because I never knew who I was. My life was literally at a standstill. But when I started to gain more self esteem, my perspective about life began to change. Im still changing for the beta. Very rough on the edges but far beta than ever! Things happen so that one can reflect on the GRACE AND MERCY of GOD! 5. I found purpose in those period where I was like in a dark silent tunnel all by myself! And i never knew it, i was even walking in it and never knew jack! I could boldly say I never had one then if I was asked. I remember how people will call me a joke,jerk and never-do-well guy and I will reject it with every FAITH in me even in the lack of sense_of_purpose..... Now, thats purpose in disguise. Thank you Jesus!!!! Finally my friends, if there be any of you I offended, broke your heart in ways I know and dont even know, I am apologizing deeply. Forgive a brother not because of me but because of my beautiful maker! Apologies to those who had planned to wish me a happy birthday today September 9th. ;) forgive me and life. The path of the righteous shines brighter and brighter. Thank God that Jesus is that righteousness,path and brightness. If not for God, where will I be!? See yall on the 20th of September, 2014. #THIS_IS_MY_STORY #PRODUCT_OF_GRACE :)
