*THE TESTIMONY*
*Episode 29*
Finally, the level she was expecting arrived. 400 level, the most challenging level of her life. She faced a lot of storms that caused her less time for herself and she shed tears almost every time secretly.
Project works, church assignment as she was appointed as the Sisters coordinator. Her relationship was going well with Pastor Dara. She blessed God for leading him to her.
Sometimes, she would want to give up on her relationship but the conviction she had, kept her going.
Tolani could not stop praying for her family, especially her brother. After some days, she received a lot of calls from her parents concerning the salvation of her brother. He had an encounter with God and also, the testimony about her sister and dad's life made her believe, God surely hears the cry of the righteous one. God restored love and unity admits her family and they all forgave Mr Alabi. She thanked God and she never seizes praying to God, to make her family stand and be deeply rooted in Christ.
Though, her parents were not financially stable but how God raised helpers was beyond her understanding. She was favored and loved from her mother and father relatives. Also, she was blessed by the gift of men.
Academically, she graduated with second class lower even though, she aimed for first class but thank God she was able to scale through. She never saw her challenges and results, as something that would make her lost her interest on academics. Instead, she made a decision not to stop but to go further as she become unstoppable and also, in fulfilling her purpose. Though she suffered in the hands of the lecturers, she would always go back to complain, whenever she saw her score but they always send her out of the office. She would cry silently and prayed to God for strength.
Then she realized it has been God's grace upon her life that, she passed through all she experienced, without being corrupted. Those prayers she prayed, without full understanding went a long way in making impact in her life and family. It was out of a sincere and broken heart. She thanked God for everything as her understanding has been enlightened and she became a witness of victory to her past. In Christ, all things are possible.
But, do you think that was the end? No, Mr Alabi hasnt changed fully but he realized he has anger issues and he had been trying to control it.
Tolani also, never stopped praying for her family. Sometimes, she would want to leave the house whenever there is no peace but the statement her father said always made her stay back
"There is always peace whenever you are at home" He said.
That made her remember the place in the bible that says, wherever the spirit of God is, there is liberty and the spirit of God, reside in her so there must be liberty. She encourage herself not to give up on them. Many at times, the lord opened her eyes to see that, they are not the enemy of each other but the devil is the enemy. So anytime her dad anger issue arises, she prayed with understanding and also, the lord uses her sometimes, to speak to her dad and he find he ways to reconcile back.
"Everything kept progressing; David is searching for a Job, though he has learnt a skill and still planning of learning another one. Ibukunoluwa is already in the university and Miracle is in secondary school. It has not been easy but God has been helping them” Miss Abosede said and thanked everyone for their patience and attention.
"You deserve more" they all said as Kikelomo finally voiced out what was wrong with her "I can understand all of her experience. This is what I am facing presently. My life now is just an example of Tolani's experience but the only difference is that; I am being left alone to face every situation, challenges and pain.
My parent has given up on me and I am about to give up on myself. I already planned the best way of taking off my life but thank God, I came to this tutorial and I was also present, the day you started sharing the experience. I noticed it was similar to mine, and then I made a decision to stay. Thank you ma for sharing such an experience, I am blessed and I can say you saved a soul"
Tears could not stop dropping from everyone face, including Miss Abosede. As she was about to talk, tears kept flowing and she finally wipe her tears and said "I love you Kikelomo and trust me, this testimony of yours shall be forever and you shall stand as a witness before men. Keep being positive. God bless you"
"Amen" They all chorused and Kikelomo asked Please ma, can we know who this Tolani is and where is she?
Miss Abosede smiled and said "Hmmm...Tolani is doing fine. I wish I can tell you more about Tolani, but she will love to keep her Identity”
"Wow, I really wish I can meet her and tell her how strong she is or is she is your friend? Or is she her with us? Or are you the Tolani? Omega asked and they all looked at her, waiting for her to talk.
"Lets start going now" She smiled and said as they stood up and matched out.
Watch out for my conclusion note on Monday.
Thank you for staying through the Journey Of Life.
God bless you and I love you!
