Opinion: The Kill-Joy, By Femi Aribisala
The Lord is determined to kill everything that gives us joy until we have no joy left outside of him.
I did not meet Jesus in the pages of a bible. I met him in person. So I can only tell you about the Jesus I know. I can only tell you about the Jesus who called me, saved me from armed-robbers and healed me miraculously of bullet-wounds. I can only tell you about Jesus of Nazareth. I want you to know that Jesus is a killjoy. The Lord is determined to kill everything that gives us joy until we have no joy left outside of him.I used to own the largest video-rental chain in Nigeria.
After three days, I concluded the Lord was the architect of my frustration. So I went to him in fellowship. I spent hours and hours in his presence. After a while, he said to me: “Femi, let us watch a film.” I told him: “There is no film in this house that I like. You have made sure of that.” The Lord said to me: “What makes you think that? Go to the study and I will choose a film for us.”
