ONE NIGHT

Episode 26

"Okay...we are not mourning anyone right? Arinola asked as she paused to see their reaction

"Then, why are you guys not talking to me? Arinola asked as they got home

"Arin...I don't know what to say, even though we are happy for you and glad to have you as a family in the same kingdom but we wanted you to say something first" Ewa said as she looked at Funto who also nodded

"Okay, I understand you both but I don't want you to start looking at me as one saint. I am still Arinola, the friendly lady. Just that, the old things are passed away just like the Pastor who came to address us at the meeting said. Though, I know it's not going to be easy but I will learn" Arinola said as Ewa and Funto smiled

"So, sis Arinola... Tell us how it happened and how was it like? Funto asked as they sat upright

"Hmmm...seriously ladies, I don't know how or where to start from. I was pressing my phone and at a point, I just realized I had to focus then, I dropped my phone and I was focused right from the beginning to the end and when the Pastor was preaching, I had to fight back those tears in my eyes though, some of them still forced their way out but I couldn't help it.

Then, at that point where he made the altar call, I knew I needed to go out but I was fighting within me because I wasn't sure if I was ready to let go of my heart and focus on Jesus. I wasn't sure, I wasn't ready for it and everything but suddenly, I found myself walking to the altar and that was when, I had peace in my mind and right there, I know my time has come and Jesus finally held me close" she said as tears were dropping from her eyes

"Awwwn....it's fine Arinola" Ewa said as they moved closer to her

"I know you might not fully gasp what is going on yet but trust me, it's a gradual process. You just stay focused on God and see how He will turn your life around" Funto said as they hugged her

"You know my dad kept waiting for this day but unfortunately, he didn't and his death, really affected me. Even at the point of death, he never stopped praying for me.

I didn't know a day like this will come and I am still scared but thank you ladies for not giving up on me and always wanting the best for me. I love you both" Arinola said as tears dropped from her eyes

"We love you" they both said

"You see, you went to church with an agenda but God turned it all" Ewa said as they all laughed.

"Funto, thank you for coming to my church. Don't worry, I will visit yours soon" Ewa said

"You better do" Funto said as they all rejoiced

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...
