Bimbim💛

I’ve been twice bitten, thrice shy… I don’t want to know what it feels like to be thrice bitten, four times shy. So, please let’s be mature enough to: - Communicate effectively - Apologize when at fault - Appreciate gift & opportunities - Choose each other, always 🙇🏽‍♂️🥺❤️💡💯🙏🏾

If Tope Alabi were a writer rather than a musician, I think she might have written some of the deepest reflections for the Christian community. In one of her songs she noted that unlike the Gods of this earth, we cannot say of our God that “Kí adé pé lórí, kí bàtà pé lẹ́sẹ̀” (see translation below). Simply because we have no idea how long the crown’s been on God’s head or when the shoe got into God’s leg, therefore, such salutation is beyond us, and we are simply not worthy of conferring it. In C.S. Lewis’ writings, I often find it interesting how he uses phrases and references from the everyday life of his age that readers could relate to. From quoting Shakespeare to relating the use of spells in comics. Effectively that’s what Tope Alabi did in that use of words for the lyrics. More importantly, that’s what she does for a vast majority of her songs. Using Yoruba, as a language, so beautifully, and its tradition to convey deep and sharp meanings. In The Knowledge of the Holy, A. W. Tozer in the chapter that focuses on the eternity of God said “Time marks the beginning of created existence, and because God never began to exist it can have no application to Him. ‘Began’ is a time-word, and it can have no personal meaning for the high and lofty One that inhabited eternity.” Both Tope Alabi and Tozer have communicated the same depth of inapplicability of time to God. For the earthly kings, we know when they were crowned and therefore pray that they have a long life on the throne. Such prayer does not apply to the everlasting God. Translation: May the crown remain long on the head, and may the shoes remain long on the feet.
