MERCY


*EPISODE 15*

The whole matter was getting worst everyday. She was getting tired and couldn’t pray like before. Always thinking of how to escape from the prison called ”Home” her father has locked her in. 

Just in few minutes, it will be time to sit together and eat. Also to know her father’s decision towards Enugu state.

“God…. please don’t turn your face away from me and let your light shine on me” Mercy prayed and as she was about to utter the other statement, her mother called her

“Mercy !!!” her mother said as she knocked her door.

She came out because she knew it was time to eat and she wasn’t going to let it pass. Instead, she held herself strong and was ready for anything that will happen.

Getting to the dining table, the food was set and served. She drew out a chair, directly in the front of her dad as she sat down. Her dad was looking at her but she acted as if he wasn’t in the front of her. Her mother kept looking at the both of them as she was thinking of a way to break the silence between them.

“So honey, what is your decision about mercy going to Enugu state because the day is drawing near. Moreover, Eniola and Enitan will be coming home next week. I don’t want it to be like the other time because of what happened, they left the house and I could feel from their reaction that they were not happy. Please let’s settle this and let peace reign for God sake” Her mother said as she pleaded holding her husband hand.

Mercy continue eating without raising up her head. She hated her father already whether he allowed her go or not, she was ready to pay back.

Her dad looked at her quietly and said “she can go… Her mother was so happy as she jumped on mercy without waiting for him to finish his statement as he raised his voice “…but she must know, I am still watching her”  

Hmmmm....

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...
