It’s amazing how God loves us, and it’s amazing how He does the things he does for us.
Welcome to my blog, dear ones. I remain @oluthomas, and I want to say a big thank you to everyone who has been following and supporting me. I pray that the good Lord rewards you and continues to keep us together.
For Afritunes Week 202, I did a rendition of a song in the Hausa dialect, which is a song of thanksgiving to God. Though I don’t know the artist who originally sang the song, I truly love it because of its chord progression. I love the melody and the lyrics. The song says that the only thing we have to bring to God is thanksgiving and praise. There is nothing we can offer to God that is above, or more acceptable to Him, than our worship and gratitude. God wants us to always give Him thanks and to make sure we walk in His path.
Some days ago, I almost started complaining about how life has been treating some of us. Someone can plan their life, and things may not work according to plan. Sometimes it gets to the extent that we begin to question reality asking if God is seeing us and why He hasn’t made things work in our favor or solved our present needs.
But what came to my mind and made me retract those thoughts and begin to thank God was this: many people I knew are dead, and some people we walked the same road with are no more today. So I decided to switch to thanksgiving rather than complaining.
So let us use most of our time to appreciate God instead of complaining, and we will see Him come through for us in diverse ways.
Thank you so very much for taking your time to go through my post, and please do well to comment.

Lyrics Translation
Thanks giving we offer unto Jesus.
There is none like Him
Worship we offer unto Jesus
There is none like Him
Songs of praise we offer unto Jesus
There is none like Him
Our lives we offer unto Jesus.
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
Because of me you gave up your life.
There is none like Him.
Because of me you came down from the heavens.
There is none like Him.
You gave us a new life, you gave us a new song.
There is none like Him.
You gave us salvation, you gave us wisdom.
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like God
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
On the cross you saved me from poverty.
There is none like Him.
On the cross you saved me from sin.
There is none like Him.
You gave me freedom, you gave me grace.
There is none like Him. (2×)
You gave me fellowship, you gave me Holy spirit.
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
There is none like God
There is none like Him.
There is none like Jesus
There is none like Him.
Jesus! none!
Jesus! none!
Jesus! none!
There is none like Him.
Jesus! none
In heavens there is none
On earth there is none
Jesus! none
There is none like Him
