ONE NIGHT


Episode 31

Arinola walked straight into her room as soon as they got home. She didn't even wait to have any conversation with Funto and Ewa as they were both surprised.

She couldn't eat and sleep as she was totally lost in thought with different words running through her mind.

"Oh God...what am I going to do? This is the secret of my life that no one knows about, even my so called friends. I have slept around with different rich guys to get money, just to pay for my school and also take care of myself.

It all started when my first boyfriend Jide, disvirgined me. He said, I have to give myself in exchange of money and now, I am addicted to it and also use it as a means to collect money from guys and no one knows about it.

God, please you just have to forgive me because I don't think I can leave the old ways and I don't think I can fully trust you. I trusted my father but he left me alone on earth with my mother that has little contribution to my life. I am all alone" Arinola said to herself as she was crying profusely

Then her phone buzzed. She picked up her phone to check who was that as tears were dripping from her eyes. It was a message from Pastor Theophilus. He was actually checking on her well being.

She wiped her tears and thought, "Can he be my helper? Should I just tell him everything? No, he can see me as a whore. So, I won't tell him everything now but I can ask him some few questions about trusting God"

Arinola replied his message as they began to chat and it lasted for 4 hours. They didn't  just talk about spiritual matter but, also discussed about themselves and even exchanged photos. It was an interesting moment for Arinola, as she didn't want the chat to end and moreover, she loved the way he addressed them on Sunday before Pastor John came to speak with them.

"I think, I have found someone I can trust" Arinola said to herself and that night, marked the beginning of mentoring for Theophilus as Arinola said "I accept you as my Spiritual Guide and Mentor" 

Arinola, felt like a burden was loosed in her heart after discussing with Theophilus even though, she hasn't told him all about her but she felt it's a gradual process

"Hmmm...this is a huge responsibility that this sister, has placed on my shoulder. God, I pray you will help me or has pastor John seen this coming before giving me the responsibility to lead the new converts? He said to himself as he turned off his data, prayed and sleep.

Part 32 will be posted tomorrow by 9:00pm

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...
