Greetings, everyone!
I'm so grateful to God for all the things he has done for me. It's His mercy that has kept me till today.
I want to thank God specifically for my 21 days in the camp, it was a beautiful experience participating in the camp activities and meeting new friends with different backgrounds. Thank God, I was able to cope with them and flow well. We had fun together.
Now, we are out of the camp and I am missing every moment or activity done in the camp. Now, is the real-time of obeying the clarion call of place of primary assignment (PPA). This particular assignment was quite stressful and needed patience from the corps members; after the whole stress, all the corps members appreciated the camp activities, the morning bungles, the voice of the soldiers, and the whistles waking us up from sleep to get ready to move out for morning meditation was amazing. Like I can echo those phrases they used to say to us while we were inside; their phrases go through this:
"Double up"
"Move your body"
"If you are walking you are wrong"
"Okayyyyy" response from us "okayyyyy" 😂
It was so fun all the way, but the part that was so boring was the SAED lectures. I never slept amid people; during these lectures, I slept and forgot myself. I liked the practical part of the SAED practical, which was split into different SAED practicals. I chose cosmetology SAED, in which I learned how to make perfume, soap, face scrub, hair shampoo, anti-dandruff shampoo, izal, and more about skin products.
Nevertheless, I joined the Man O' War drill.
However, NYSC is not for the swift. I thank God for my stay in the camp; I didn't experience any casualties; my colleagues, while indulging in activities; some of them fainted, and some wounded themselves, but I wasn't. God sustained my strength and protected me, He provided all my needs.
So I'm here to return all the glory to God for being my being my driver.
The Bible says
Psalms 103:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Psalms 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Psalms 107:8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
For all the things He has done for me, I will not cease to praise Him for the rest of my life.
Thank you, Jesus. I love you, Lord.
