An Old Man After Sex 2

An Old Man after Sex 2

I would return the next day and a more perverted remark, by now more people were taking note. A young man who got him, whom we have shared pleasantries showed me his and told me his dad had to pay to get the letter. Not surprised by the revelation but relieved. Well, I thought giving him cash is far better than giving him what he is requesting, my body. Wait a minute! bribery and the sin of adultery or fornication, which is a lesser Sin? They are both wrong, I was wrong.

Anxiously I went in and said to him, that, I have seen people pay to get the signature, That I would like him to take a token. “I am really tired” I pleaded, I want to go back home. He looked at me and said, “so you want to bribe me, no one pays me”.

At this point, contemplated abandoning the whole thing and run back home but we have spent so much already. At this time I didn’t look forward to seeing him, I began to hate him, vomit at his thoughts, wishing something horrific happen to him. God knew my heart and so I heard His gentle voice say, “that’s someone’s father you know and I also died for him”. I broke down and asked for forgiveness also help from God.

It was the fourth week, as usual, I was waiting in line with others. He called me in and said, “I will send you my room number”, I said, “Sir, but you are a Christian and a father, what have I done to you? If you think have the requirement give me a rejection later stating your reasons at least”, he said no.

I stood aside sobbing, then sauntered in an elderly woman. She took a good look at me. Hugged me, made me sit on her laps, then began to speak over my life, she said to me while he watched. “You will not fail, let go of the fear”. He sheepishly mocked “you don get mother now, for the ministry of education”. She did not say a word to him as he kept laughing.

With my mind made up, that this will be the last time, I went to see him. I had decided to give up if he still refuses. I will then go back home to learn some handwork, accept the marriage proposal of anyone who came.

When I entered his office, this time I met a girl sitting in his seat. She was just a few years older than me. She asked me to wait on him, that he had just left to get something. Then she spoke Hausa to me, “my sister” she said, “this man is not intending to give you, until he sleeps with u, I know because you have been his topic of discussion. he is my uncle, my parents are dead but the only way I get to have something from him is to sleep with him and then I and my siblings get school fees. I will speak with him, he is evil” I looked at her for a bit, said thank you to her. Turned before leaving, “but he is a Christian” “Yes, a well-respected leader she said”

Quickly vacated, made a call to my agent who works then from Malaysia, that was why I had to follow up on that letter myself. We spoke at length, he advised me and said “whatever I have to compromise my faith for is not worth the effort and it is more misery if I fall for the gimmicks of the devil than the fortune I think I can foresee…..God speaking in all directions I thought.

Trusting God, I leaned to him and ceased from going to the ministry. After a week I saw his call, I picked up and an angry man spoke at the other end of the phone, ” stupid girl, come and get your letter, so I find peace” he murmured while ending the call. I got up, when I got to his office, he refused to look at my face and just handed me my documents. All this struggle was a trying and learning time but not God’s will.

Occasionally I reflect on his niece and say a prayer for her. I know God has saved her and freed her from the claws of death/sin and that evil old man.

My presumed sponsor never existed. If I had insisted on resuming school on the notion that my school fees and other expenses will be credited when I got there, I would have been in a lot of trouble. God works in mysterious ways, but He is always willing to reveal His will if we ask before pursuing dreams.

Lessons to take

1. God still has Sons and daughters who are faithful. We are human but not all humans are evil, wicked, or adulterous but we all have the privilege to choose the path of life or death but are advised to choose Life.

2. God’s purpose aligned in His will and yours cannot be averted.

3. No one will take the glory in His children’s life, He is a father who takes joy in coming through for His children.

4. You have been given all the grace you need. There is a greater reward for obeying God. Obedience produces discipline.

5. God is bigger than all seeming big names or opportunities. He is your everything.

6. Un-forgiveness and fear are destructive. Forgiveness or walking in love and faith opens doors and gives peace.

7. You would be tempted but it is God’s
will that you overcome.

8. God still looks out for an offender, forgive and leave free.

9. Choose love over Judgment.

I had my plans God had His. I am grateful to be walking in His will. I believe in you. God will not fail us. That trial will soon cease and you will be lifted. Glory to God.

Ephesians 4:32
Be gentle with one another, sensitive. Forgive one another as quickly and thoroughly as God in Christ forgave you.
