ADURAGBEMI


 *PART SIX*

She couldn't stop crying, as the thought of everyone reaction especially the pastor and his wife kept coming to her mind. She didn't believe they could react in such way.

"Jesus, why? Why is my healing taking time? When am I going to be free from this ailment? She said as she was weeping.

"Jesus... Fix me. I need you to invade my life, my health. Lord please, pass me not" she said as she sang with tears.....

Pass me not, oh gentle savior
Hear my humble cry
While on other thou are calling
Do not pass me by

Saviour, Saviour
Jesus hear my humble cry
And while others thou art calling
Do not pass me by....

She kept singing and crying that she didn't notice when her mother came in until she tapped her

"Adura, ki lo de to fin sunkun?(why are you crying?) Ki lo fa ekun? Mother asked

" E kabo ma(welcome ma), it's nothing serious" she said as she tried to control her tears.

"It's a lie, you cannot hide it anymore. It's glaring all over you that something happened. So please, tell me what is it? Mother asked..

" It happened again" she said as she started crying

"What happened again? Mother asked as she adjusted and dropped her bag.

"Mummy, it happened. I fell down in church, right in front of everyone. I became someone everyone was running away from except Pastor Jimi who rushed to assist me even when I can hear the voice of people, telling him to stay away from me but he didn't listen to them" she said as she was crying.

"...But I warned you, I warned you concerning the so called church members. Some of them will not ever want to meet you again and such is life. There is no love anywhere, stay at home you won't hear. Now can you see yourself, stay at home and worship your God!!! Mother shouted at her. She could not say anything as tears were flowing down 

" It's okay dear. Thank God for the gentle men that helped you. God bless him wherever he is" mother said.

"Mummy, it's not easy. I feel disconnected" she said as she wiped her tears.

"I know my dear. God would surely help us but still, don't trust men" mother said.

Is there any way you feel disconnected from your loved ones, especially those you think they should be of help to you? Shift your focus to God and look up to Him. 

Stay with me as we journey together.




 *PART SEVEN*

In the midnight, Adura could not sleep as she stood up to pray.

"Lord Jesus, even before I open my mouth, you know every of my thought and words. I have no one except you, I have come before your presence. Lord renew my strength.

(Psalm 73:26) you are my strength giver, only you can strengthen me during this season. Help me not to faint(Luke 18:1). Lord Jesus, strengthen me to pray more. Also, strengthen my faith(Hebrew 11:1). Help me oh lord, to hold unto your words in my life.

Lord heal my troubled heart and help me stand right with you. Have mercy on me" she prayed and began to make confessions "Lord I believe in you, I stand and hold unto your words for it says in the book of Mark 11:24, whatever I ask in prayers, I believe that I have received it and its mine. I don't live and depend on the actions of men but by your words. Lord Jesus, I wait on you, I depend on you.." She rounded up and began to thank God. Philippians 4:6, she continued in thanksgiving. After, she study the word and worship until she slept off.

Numbers 14:11, how long will you continue to despise him over that issues, challenges or struggles. How long will you not believe in Him, in spite of all the signs that you have seen, read and heard of that He has done among people. God knows every of our challenges but he want us to seek Him, ask Him, pray to Him and believe in Him. Seek with all your hearts and you shall find him. Ask him and you shall receive. Pray to Him and he shall hear you. Believe in Him for He has done it.

Adura wasn't given enough time to rest as her mother woke her up to assist her in doing some home duties. After the house chores, she hoped to get some rest but her mother insisted that they had to talk.

"Mummy, what is it again? Please ma, can you allow me get some rest before we start our discussion" she said

"No o, it's very important and it is about your health. We have to go and see baba" mother said 

"Ehn, olorun maje(God forbid) why should I go and see baba when I know the King of all kings. Tell me mummy, why should I seek solution elsewhere when the solution is within me! She said

" Woo, leave all those one o. Moreover, there is nothing bad in it. People are doing it and nobody knows unless they tell you. Do you think its all those people that share testimony that God truly healed" mother said

"Hmmm, but me I don't want to be part of them. If the so called baba cannot save my daddy, so tell me what is the assurance that I can be saved. Mummy (John 14: 16) say, Jesus is the way to my healing and only in Him can I be healed. His words are my assurance and I am standing on it" she said

"I am not saying He isn't the way, He can provide his way in different ways" mother said

"Hmm mummy, don't even go there. Don't twist the word of God, His way isn't from the man that doesn't know about Him. I am not going to compromise the word of God by going to the Baba's place. I cannot share his glory with anyone" she said and as her mother was about to talk, they heard a knock on the door.

"Early this morning, who can that be? Mother asked.

I hope you are not about to compromise God's word in your life by taking a step out of Him. If he says he has done it, so be it. God's way isn't the way of man. It might take a longer period before it's being manifested but it has been done.

Part eight will be posted tomorrow...

Stay with me as we journey together.

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
