Chapter 13 * Remember God is with you and he will be with you unto the end. * **** ----- Mia ----- * Many are the affliction of the righteous but the Lord delivers them out of it all. * I didn't know where this came from but the words just kept ringing in my mind as I prepared to sleep that night. Earlier I saw in the headlines how christains were being persecuted in the northern part of the country. They are being denied Job promotions while some aren't granted paid employment. Christians are being exploited and mistreated... All because they believed in the Lord Jesus Christ. Christain schools are also being shut down as some gunmen kept barging into the schools to afflict the students, especially the female children. Whenever I hear of female students being sexually abused... I feel that pain in my heart. That one that was really very difficult to fear. Sometimes... It feels like my heart is being ripped off my chest and it really hurts a lot. Like seriously! I f

Chapter 14 * God loves you! * **** Meanwhile, in Clover's Home. Her father and step mother were having a heated discussion on what was going on. " Sometimes I wonder if being a Christian is worth all these persecutions. " Linda commented. " Why do you say that, Honey? " Adrian, Clover's Dad whipped his head towards her. " Isn't it obvious? Christians are being murdered, exploited, denied their rights all because they believe in Christ! " " Um... What's your point? " " Isn't it better being an unbeliever and be free than being a Christian and suffering from all these persecutions? For what actually? " Linda said sharply. " For the joy of the Lord. " " Ah! Haven't you heard that if you need fast money and happiness you must not rely on God? As you'll only be disappointed. " " But the wealth of the Lord lasts forever and will add no pain and suffering to it... Unlike the one that comes from the devil. " " Forever ah! Who knows when one will die?

Chapter 15* Believe in the living saviour. *****---- Clover ----All my life I have been a Christian but mainly a church goer. Yes... I believed in the Lordship of the Lord Jesus Christ. I believe that he's Lord of all...I also believed that he died for the sins of all man kind... But that was only what I knew.I never felt the need to have a more deeper and intimate relationship with my Lord. I didn't realize that I don't have to struggle all by myself as my Lord is more than ready to help me and all I needed to was to simply ask. I knew God loves me since everyone believes so.And John 3:16 also agreed with it too.As it says, * For God so loves the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life. *I know this... But I never for once personalized it.I never knew God loves me so much that he wanted me to have a good life... One devoid of sadness and grief... I have read, John 10:10 multiple times but I never
