THE KING'S DELIGHT


Part Two

"Arìké, where have you been? Her father asked as she got inside.

"I am sorry Baami(my father), I was discussing with Adigun" she said. Arìké calls her uncle her father, since she has no one except him and God. Ever since her father and mother died, he took her as his daughter.

"Another guy again...Arìké my daughter I have warned you severally about these guys in the village. You cannot know more about a village than the owner o" he said

"Baami, I am sorry but it is not my fault. They just keep coming and you are the one that told me, not to be rude to anyone" she said

"Yes I know but I just want you to be careful. I have promised myself to take care of you and make sure, you don't make the wrong choice/ decision" he said passionately..

"I know, thank you Baami and I love you" she said and hugged him 

"I know my daughter; I just want the best for you. In this village, most of the guys can be dubious and I don't want them to dupe you. I actually called you earlier, to inform you that I am going to the king feast.

I know you can't come with me because you will be doing the house chores and also sharing the word with the people. I pray God strengthen you more and less I forget, when it is getting late, do not go to the farm again" he said.

"Yes baami" she said and smiled as he went out. 

After some minutes, Arìké went to their farm to get corn that she will use to cook Ewa Alagbado(Bean and corn). When she came back, the children were already outside the house for Bible study. She greeted them and quickly went inside to gather her sticks and pot to prepare the food before going back outside.

When the bible study was going on, something unusual happened. People of her age and older people, started joining. She was happy and she went inside to get more chairs for them. She taught the word passionately and they were all blessed. 

She also gave them some things to take home and free bibles which she saved some money to buy. They were so happy and went around, telling people of what she did. She was joyful, as she went inside to pray and check what she was cooking. 

Arìké doesnt have any friend, she saw everyone in the village as her family. She was loved by both men and women of the village. Not just because of what she did but because of who she was.

Hmm..Who are you?

Part three will be posted by 8:30am 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...
