It's #tbt today and I bring to you memories with my family worth remembering. Sometimes, it takes a long time to have the full family around, but whenever there's a special event, then it becomes an opportunity for most family members to visit and merry together.
I remember sharing the kidnapping incident that happened to my mom in October last year and how she survived from the kidnappers den. So last month during the festive season, my family held a thanksgiving service to express gratitude to our Creator for everything that transpired.
It was a day filled with both gratitude and emotions as we reflected on the incident and how long it took before my mom was rescued. Family, friends, in-laws, and neighbors were all present in our church as we danced to the altar, appreciating God for life.
There were moments of partying after the church service with food, drinks, dance, and catching up between our relatives. No doubt, the opportunity brought both our far and distant relatives together.
A lot of people who heard about the incident and how Mom was rescued came to really see Mom, gave her a warm hug, and kept thanking God for her life.
The part that got most people thinking was when Mom stood up in the midst of many people in my house to explain in detail how she survived from the hands of the kidnappers. It looked strange and clear that God was totally involved in her case.
You see, I used to read testimonies of people and how they survived similar incidents, and I kept wondering about the wonders of God until it happened firsthand in my family.
Reflecting on the experience, it reminded me to trust our Creator completely for any kind of storm we may face and also to always express gratitude even in a little thing.
It was fun and exciting having my aunt around, my uncles, cousins, in-laws, and many others as we dined together, made merry, danced, and unwind, creating long-lasting memories together.
Each time I lay on my bed to watch the videos and some pictures I struggled to capture on the day, I smile and laugh, craving such a gathering again in the future.

Thank God for life, preservation and protection. It's really a thing of thanksgiving. Mom was really dancing well. God will continue to bless and hide her and the entire family in Jesus name 🙏
