The water had overwhelmed us – Patience Ozokwo writes on 66th birthday

Nollywood veteran actress, Patience Ozokwo has taken to social media to express gratitude to God for clocking a new age.

The actress took to her Instagram page on Saturday, September 14th to celebrate her 66th with pictures of herself and verses from the scripture.

Sharing the photos, she wrote: “Birthday Thanksgiving. If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, now may Patience say;

“If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us. Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul.

“Then the proud waters had gone over our soul. Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth. Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”
