🙁The Good Heart ❤️ 👨
Episode 1.
After my NYSC, I decided to change environment and moved to Ondo state with my friend in search of greener pastures.
I and my friend secured a job in a secondary school and in less than 5 months working there, my friend was already in a very serious relationship with the principal just like that o.
Hmmmm somehow I felt jealous. I was already 25 years and soon to be 26, no relationship. I won't say guys has not been coming,ⁿ but they were not God fearing for my liking.
Its either I won't like the church they worship or they were not serious with God, I wanted a God fearing brother nau and I never stopped praying for one.
Before I knew it the principal didn't waste time to engage my friend o, and with a speed of light my friend relocated to his place. Hmmmm children of the world!
That lonely evening after writing my note of lesson my mom call came on phone and I picked up,
"Hello mommy, good evening, I greeted.
"Evening, why is your voice low? She noticed.
"Nothing mommy, I'm just alone here o and I'm thinking of how I'll be paying the house rent by myself now, I replied.
"What do you mean by that? Where's Susan? She asked.
"That one? Her boyfriend abi Man friend proposed to her and she quickly relocated to his place. When i asked how we are going to take Care of the rent, she replied that I should be thankful she didn't stay until the rent is over and i should be able to start saving before it expires, I replied.
"Eh! So ordinary proposal she packed to a man house with no bride price? She asked.
"I told her to be careful but she knows what she is doing, so i kept quiet before I'll be tagged bad belle, i replied.
"Ahhh this is not fair na then you have to start saving up so that you can meet up. But Amanda no news yet? I mean no serious brother yet? She asked.
"Mama I'm still praying and I'm not even worried about that, my own time will come and it will be Better, i replied.
"Of course my daughter and please don't give yourself so desperate like what Susan did if not he won't respect you o, she said.
"I know na, no God fearing brother can do that sef, I said.
"Sure my daughter, so you've not found our family church to attend? I don't like all this pastor and Mrs church you're going o, she said and i laughed.
"Mama i found one, i didn't know it was there o because there was no banner on the road. So don't worry I'll be worshipping there tomorrow, i replied.
"Good! Now you're talking, and don't worry too much about Susan behavior or the rent okay, God will make a way, my mom said.
"Sure mama, Greet everyone for me, I said.
"I will, and take care of yourself, my mom said and dropped the call and i checked the time and stood up to prepare dinner......
The next day i dressed up and located my family church which was a short distance from my place.
The building was not too big but the congregation there was approaching hundred which consisted of youths, men and women including children.
It felt so good to be in my family church and i loved the preaching and everything.
At the end of the service the pastor asked to see first timers which i decided to wait behind despite I'm an old member.
The pastor was also happy to hear its a family church and quickly told me to pick up something to do in church and i just smiled.
"Okay I'll teach the children in Sunday school, i finally accepted when the pastor kept insisting.
Then came a Well built handsome guy who I noticed was very vibrant in church.
He was an usher, a lead singer during praise and when it was time for prayers, the pastor can't beat him with the holy ghost he rained down.
He came to take our details and to follow us up,
"Hello, I'm John by name, please can you fill this? He asked giving me a short form to fill and i took it and returned it back to him after filling and that was where he saw my name.
"Okay Amanda I'll love to see you worship with us next Sunday, thanks for coming, John said with all smiles as i stood up ready to leave.
"Sure, i said to him and headed to the door back home, but eh, brother John was a full package for me......
