extra 500 naira for this purpose
I signed the letters in the Principal's hand
My roommates took the letter home and they all returned with 500 naira each at the beginning of the next term

Even when i was in primary School, I wrote a letter in my elder sister's hand and sent it to my class teacher claiming i was a sickle cell patient

My friends in Secondary school had me pegged as "Ade Bendel 2.0
Long after I became a believer, many of them were convinced I was just pulling a long con or trying to scam my way through life
I imagine today how my life would have turned out if the gospel

Growing up in a Christian home where Christianity was a religion didn't let me appreciate the power of the gospel but
that encounter with Sister Titi Laniyan did.
I was very receptive to her
I remember @LekeAlder writing on Twitter about His conversion story that came about through a "sister" when he was an undergraduate

It took me another 12 years to become a born again
The seed planted at 15 continued to grow as I stumbled my way through life until it exploded in my heart on September 17, 2007
I wonder today how my life would have turned out if the gospel was not preached

Perhaps I'd be in prison, dead, living out my life as a notorious criminal and leaving behind me a trail of sorrow, tears and blood

I can count at least 500 people on Twitter who came to know the gospel of the Lord Jesus and it's transforming power through me
(I boast not)
I wrote that to say that those 500 blessings were on a path of destruction and would have been a curse but for the gospel
