Dapo Ademola Omisore
My name is Dapo Omisore. I hailed from Ile-Ifein Nigeria, born and raised in Ibadan. The book “From Grass To Grace” is a fulfillment of a long-term ambition. It is dated back to my childhood days. It’s successful completion is the zenith and realization of childhood dreams. The driving force compelling the writing of this book is the inseparable marriage between the keen and intense love for God and literature. The love for the supreme being and superb ideal and legacy are interlocked in this book. The book is the meeting and melting pot and point of the three factors.

THE INVISIBLE AND IMPERCEPTIBLE HAND
Scores of events transpired mysteriously. Chains of occurrences happened most amazingly.
Legions of issues rear their ugly heads most astonishingly – logical answers elude us. Events that can only be praised regardless and irrespective of their nature and magnitude still needs to be explained.
The assurance of the presence of God notwithstanding I was quite frankly and in all honesty besieged with loneliness unhappiness, sadness and dejection I can no longer withstand.
Keeping in mind all these experiences took place in the confinement and comfort of the four walls of the church some folks outside probably do not experienced these phenomenal troubles even though they are largely unchurched.
I should have been solaced and glad essentially, my presence in the church should have invoke and provoke in me some form of gratification.
