A Nigerian lady took to Instagram to celebrate her birthday, months after she survived a gas explosion.

The Instagram user who shared some of her recovery photos thanked God for saving her life.
She wrote; The Lord has shown His mercy that I can not fathom.

“My name has been written in the book of life.
“I, Olateju, have seen and felt His mercy, and so, my lips will sing of His greatness all the days of my life.
“I’ve neared death and didn’t die, the wave of the sea didn’t consume me, neither did the scorching fire burn me.
“My beauty has been renewed in the Lord.
“My salvation assured.
“Olúwá, a ki kitan, eledumare, I bless the beauty of Your name.
“I’m a year older!
“I wouldn’t be here if not for You, Heavenly Father. All glory and honour to your holy name, Jehovah. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME. #God’sfavourite“
