About the Item

"Thy Brother's Keeper" describes a time in every man's life. When he is kept and entrusted with a refiner (a person that keeps them before they become their greatest self). I read the story of David and how he walked with Saul fighting and being sent even after Goliath though he was already anointed to be King. I saw the posture of the two men as regards their responsibility. Saul the brother's keeper was not faithful in guiding David correctly and in humility. He despised his chance at relevance in the next phase of the move of God by being Jealous instead of nurturing. And I saw David, the kept man who refused to despise or hate but stayed in Understanding. Raw Gold is meant to pass through the fire. At every point of our life, we will be the fire and the raw Gold and it takes wisdom and humility not to overemphasize the roles of these responsibilities.

Brothers 1
By Daniel Oguche Junior
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
The bond between brothers, whether by blood or through the strong connection forged by friendship, is truly special. It's amazing how we can find support and solace in those who may not be family but have chosen to be there for us. Martin Luther rightly said, "We have flown the air like birds and swum the sea like fishes, but we have yet to learn the simple act of walking the earth like brothers". In a collective society, it's crucial for us to embrace the concept of being our brother's keeper. By nurturing a sense of empathy and compassion, we can make a positive difference in each other's lives. Whether it's lending a helping hand, offering a listening ear, or providing support during challenging times, being there for one another creates a stronger and more supportive community. Let us always cherish and celebrate the unbreakable bond we share with our brothers, both by blood and through the deep connections we form along life's journey. Together, we can create a world where everyone feels loved, supported, and appreciated.
