2024-10-29 19:42:56Toyin, please wait for me, I was unusually late that day. I was undecided about the type of cloth to wear, I never knew why I was confused. Eventually, I managed to put on a red top and a white skirt, we went to the campus fellowship. They had finished praying and were singing, in fact about rounding up the songs to hand over to the coordinator for the day, who in turn would bring in the speaker, when we got in.
I was ashamed of myself, that day, I love to be punctual to the fellowship I hate to be irresponsible. I call lateness irresponsibility because others would have gone ahead to serve while I would be missing, then coming late to serve God. Whatever is worth doing, is what doing well. If you serve God, serve him well. The only reason I may justify lateness is if the circumstance is genuinely beyond control. If it is sudden sickness, then I know that is beyond my control.It was a prayer meeting that day. The brother coordinating the prayers led us powerfully. The pRelated chapters
THE CONVERSION EVEN YOU
“Even you brother Solomon, God will judge you”. I was weeping uncontrollably, “ you a prayer band leader did this to me, with impudent face as if it is nothing, this is unfaithfulness to God and to me. God will not allow you to go scot free”. I was completely broken down, shattered, I felt betrayed. If anyone had told me brother Solomon would betray my trust and befriending another lady, I wouldn’t have agreed”.“I do not know why you felt betrayed, I never told you, I would marry you, I told you we should start a relationship, I did not say marriage did I ?” “You are wicked, you are a sadist; cunning old fool; serpent” I kept on calling him names. I left his room in great anger. I kept on asking myself all sorts of questions what have I done to deserve this ill-treatment from this deceiver? He lured into a relationship. I thought he was a very good Christian. A leader in the fellowship. Though I never wanted a relationship with him, he seduced me. I fell for it. No wonder he sai
THE CONVERSION DISAPPOINTED
"Maybe he is right, who will ever believe me. He is a big brother in Christ in the fellowship. Highly respected and loved. Who will ever believe me? They may even say that I wanted to blackmail him."I left the place in anger to my hostel. I stopped going to fellowship. A regular member I was, committed, dedicated but suddenly stopped. Members came to visit me but I told them that I was not feeling fine. I kept all these to myself.Luckily, after a few days, four of the converts came to greet me. After all, we have all been mentored by brother Solomon, so they came for a solidarity meeting, checking on me. I welcomed them and told them that I am getting better. I told them that there was something I'll love to share with them, they should beware of me. They gave me their attention eager to hear me. I asked them, " Did brother Solomon promise to marry you but told you not to let others know? Has he not told you that if anyone asks, you should tell them you are b
THE CONVERSION FIGHTING TO LIVE
“That boy will never graduate from this school. I will make sure I frustrate him. He will come to understand that no one competes with “Mr. Hitman”. ” I heard him tell another lecturer boastfully. The other lecturer laughed and long-hailing his co-lecturer, “Mr. Hitman, who dares you, the one and only hitman on this campus. The fear of Mr. Hitman is the beginning of wisdom”. He laughed again and went out leaving me alone with the dreadful sadist.Dr. Phillips is popularly known as “Mr. Hitman”, was a lecturer in the university. He is known for his love for numerous ladies on campus. Whenever he wants any lady on campus, he goes for it without minding whether she is single or married. He hits his target without missing it.

THE CONVERSION THE STRATEGY
While the executives were praying earnestly, it occurred to one of them to strategize on how to nail this lecturer, once and for all. Evil should not always prevail, it is time for the light of God to override darkness, after all, there are godly lecturers on campus. They began to strategize and vowed to involve some of the good lecturers." What about tonight, I.have to meet this sadist, what do I do?" I spoke out in fear. One of them told me to go there with a camera, he would want to touch you in the sensitive areas, pretend as if you have seen a snake, look for a way to exit, book another time with him, then they would have involved others and would be ready for the showdown. I reluctantly agreed to go, knowing that we had prayed and handed all things into the hands of him who was able to save, deliver, and set free from the grip of Mr. Hitman. I kept on brooding on the way."So I have become one of his victims?". I pray to God to set me free from the sadist. I pray th

As soon as she came in, instead of me to apologize and embrace her, I told her “you are heartless, you mean you could leave me in this room alone for two weeks?

“That guy doesn’t love you; he is only interested in your money. He is a gold digger.”I met a lady in the supermarket. I noticed she was moody and seemed to be lost in thought. Two people greeted me, she never responded, she was just looking into the ceiling of the store, eyes blank, I thought she was shopping but she stayed glued to the toiletries section. She behaved as if she was oblivious to her environment. I greeted “Hi,” no response, “hello,” no answer. I touched her a little on her shoulder; she almost jumped out of her skin. I held her, looking into her eyes, I said, “can I please help you.” She responded quickly “Where can we talk?” \she dropped all the items she had picked and followed upstairs.

My acidic tongue as a result of my bitter experiences no doubt. Life experiences twist character. Character is the core of leadership. Charisma without character is a failure. “Hmm, my eyes are just opening to what I am gradually becoming a princess.” Comfort said in a sober mood. “Thank you for taking the risk of opening my eyes to these things. I believe I’m going to be a great leader, women and even men will learn from my wealth of experience. I want to re-build my character to become the best of God’s creation.”Back then, I (called) invited those ladies that bro. Solomon had disappointed, I decided to engage them in dealing with men generally. “We should be the one handling the men and putting them in their place. Enough of their deceptions, if you will agree with me I have a plan.” They were all eager; seem excited to know my plans. “Not so fast babes,” I said. “I’ll get in touch with you one by one t

I clapped joyously and told him “yes, yes, yes,” he took me by surprise and picked me up like a baby, I felt ashamed so I used my hands to cover up my face. He set me down gently and before I knew it, he had outsmarted me and gave me a long kiss. Wow!
