EPISODE 20
When I got back to school in my final year, I became a victim of shaming from those that hated or envied my erstwhile “Cinderella” story because my lifestyle changed (obviously) and I had somewhat become the girl I was when I first got to school. But this time, I had confidence and wasn’t ashamed to share my faith with anyone who cared to listen. I was like a trophy of grace for the Christian community on campus.
Sister Grace also got married that year; her fiancé’s business experienced a turnaround and things started to look up for them. I was super happy for her
The Campus fellowship helped a lot with my spiritual growth…I hungered and thirsted for God. Bro Charles was always available to answer my questions. I didn’t have a lot of money but I was contented and God met all my needs…I had so much joy.
Many brothers at the fellowship liked me but I was busy falling in love with Jesus and just wasn’t ready for another relationship.
God was just so good to me; even in my academics…I graduated with a Second Class, Upper division. I also wanted to be posted to Abuja for Youth service; my spirit just wanted to go there but I didn’t have the “connection” to make it happen…Captain would definitely have been able to help with this.
I was almost tempted to contact him but decided to talk to God about it instead. After all, Bro Charles had taught me about the will of God…so I prayed that if it was the will of God, He should make it happen without any human interference or involvement. And since the king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by Him; He should guide it in my favor.
I got my NYSC letter and was posted to Abuja…so, all I had to do was ask, seek and knock? My God!
I was excited about this next chapter of my life…I couldn’t wait to get a job and start taking care of my mum again. Our landlord’s daughter had promised to get a spot for me at the Abuja branch of the bank where she was now a Senior Manager.So off I went to Camp and like Bro Charles taught me, I quickly found the Nigerian Christian Corper’s Fellowship so I could be part of it.
“When you meet new people, be quick to let them know your identity in Christ before they start forming personal opinions about you.
