ADURAGBEMI


 *PART EIGHT*

"It's Pastor Jimi and Bro Matthew" she said and opened the door.

"Welcome sir" she greeted

"Ah Pastor Jimi, welcome sir and also my brother, welcome" mother said as she greeted both of them.

"Thank you ma" they both replied and sat down. Mother excused them and Adura went to get them drinks with snacks.

"This is for you sir, help us eat it with love" she said and smiled. She was going back to get bro Matthew's own before he said "Sis Adura, don't worry about me. I am fine"

"Ah ah bro Matthew, why nau? First time in my house and you won't take anything. No o, you must take something" she said

He smiled faintly and said "Sis Adura don't bother, I am fine. More over, I will be leaving soon" he said

"Alright o but I just want you to know that I am not happy" she said

"Please, be happy" he said and smiled.

"Well, thank you sis Adura for this. I am enjoying it and if I may ask, where did you get it? Pastor Jimi said.

"Thank you sir. My mum made it" she said

"Wow, I love it. I am really grateful, God bless you" Pastor Jimi said

"Amen sir. Thank you sir and also for the other day. I did not get a chance to say thank you and I know you understand. She said as bro Matthew countenance changed

"No, you don't have to thank me. Even the bible instructed us to be our brother's keeper" Pastor Jimi said

"Hmmm, yes I know sir but only few people can do what you did. I never knew I could get assistance from you, I never for once thought about it. When I saw you that day, immediately a word came to my mind which is " Never judge anyone and never look down on anyone". God can send people who we didn't even have a thought about to help us. Thank you very much sir, I am so grateful. You ignited my hope, you didn't make me feel unwanted though I was embarrassed and I also cried because of the reaction of the people I saw as my family. I was pained, I felt unloved and then I remembered, it wasn't their fault. If I am the one, would I also assist the person or join the crowd to murmur. I couldn't even answer the question myself but you did, in spite what  others were saying. You took your stand and assisted me. I realised how i look at men instead of God. God bless you sir" she said as she knelt down. By this time, bro Matthew felt so bad that he was about to weep.

"Those words really touched me and I must say, I feel guilty. I am so sorry" bro Matthew said

"Oh no bro Matthew, it isn't your fault. If I was to be in your position, I might have also reacted in such way" she said

"Thank  you. I have to be on my way, I have an important meeting to attend. Now that I know your house, I will come back to greet you" he said

"Alright, thank you for coming. I really appreciate" she said as they both escorted him to the gate and turned back

"So back to our discussion, I would like to know how it happened. Your story" Pastor Jimi said

"Hmm....my story" she said and took a deep breath.

I believe we have learnt one or two things from this part. You can write out what you have learnt for others to learn from it.

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...
