HE killed his SON And spared devil

When I was far from the fold,

I wandered in the wilderness of felony

I dined with dogs and fat pigs;

THE SON left the ninety-nine and search for me

He gave his comfort to dangers.

When I was swimming in the mud of sin,

I was covered in grave transgressions

my tog become a rag;

THE SON gave me his white garment

And washed the mud off my dirty cloth.

When the world is full of evil

Men invite devil to the table

Unrighteousness filled the earth

Even the noise of sin disturbs the heavenly bodies;

THE FATHER killed his SON

And spared the devil.

A famous criminal was I

yet THE FATHER ordered for my freedom

And made HIS son a famous criminal;

HE turned HIS face away and my punishment was gifted to THE SON.

I ate the forbidden fruit and my eyes were opened

To evils and goods of the world

the glorious cloth was taken off me

and I locomote in nakedness;

HE made his son naked

And cloth me with righteousness.

He watched his son hanged on the tree

like a illustrious larcenist

Men spit on him like smelling dung

THE SON cried in agony "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?"

the climate replied him with the gravity of my dark felony.

The SON was given a crown of thorn

To destroy the man with horn

And this brought to me a golden crown

He was smote by the side

For me to quench my thirsty.

He slept on the tree like a lifeless ant

For me to sleep on his father's bosom

He cried in nakedness, for me to smile in glorious garment

He was counted among the thieves

So I can be counted among the Honourable Chiefs

His death has paid it all

because his father killed him

And spared a sinner like me.

On the third day, the grave couldn't withstand the glory

The death was powerless and lifeless to hold him down

The son has risen from the death

And new life has begin for everyone

The devil is trembling and crying, for he has failed to win

YES! I have gotten a new HOPE in CHRIST

because His FATHER killed HIM, And spared ME.

Happy Easter ✝

Corps Member Tackles Unemployment in Gombe with Fish Farming Training

A bold new project aimed at transforming the lives of 100 young people in Gombe is underway, as Ishaq Abdullahi Shehu, a dedicated National Youth Service Corps member from Kano State, turns his agricultural expertise into a community development program. The initiative focuses on modern fish farming techniques designed to combat youth unemployment and boost local food production.

Gombe, like many parts of Nigeria, is grappling with the dual challenges o...
