PRAYERS OF MY CHILDHOOD


Spd emergency. That was the major talk amongst us kids that time. Believe we were stupid little kids that loved gizmos, we watched Space Patrol Delta Power Rangers recently, jumping up and down, screaming boom, the explosion using our loud mouth.

Saying, hia! Whenever we jump down from the chairs in the parlour, I decided to buy power rangers operation overdrive, then we fed our minds with more heroic acts from teenagers in the US, always saying they wanna save the world. But they never reach Africa since them start.

I can't even begin to imagine the look on my dad's face when he asked me to pray one morning, I began.
"Father in the name of Jesus, father we thank you allowing to see a new day, may your name be highly praised in Jesus name." I said.

"Amen." The family answered.

"Father any evil awaiting us during the day, we bind them in Jesus name." I prayed.

"Amen." They answered.

Then with my heart crying out to the Lord our heavenly father, with everything I had in me, all the seriousness I've gathered all my life, everything I have in this world, I said.

"Father I know you grant our heart desires, father may you make us power rangers in Jesus name." I continued.

Only my younger brothers answered that one with a loud...

"AMEN." They screamed.

The face my father made, because he was utterly confused and the laughter of my elder brothers, but they have no idea, how I felt about that prayer.

Now at this age looking at all that, I want to slap my younger self, but what can I say, it's all part of me. I've always loved them, can't say about now though.

That life.
