A letter came in from my school
that I had been awarded a scholarship due to excellent performance in school.
As years past on God gave me
the strength to bear all the pain caused by my aunt. I was focused I had to be
something in life, I will not give up.
My aunt passed away when I was
writing my SSCE exams, I was 17 at that time. I was all alone again. She didn't
have any children because she never married. I missed her, though she was cruel
to me she provided a roof over my head and a place to call home for awhile.
Going through my aunts things
when she died I came upon my fathers office bag. All the memories came back to
hunt me and fresh tears fell from my eyes. I opened the bag, I saw some
documents which I didn't really understand at that time, I saw some photographs
and a...
bunch of keys.
Few weeks following her death,
I started looking for a job, I needed food and a roof over my head. Other
family members refused to take me in believing that am an evil child that would
bring harm to them.
On a sunday after close from
church I saw a wallet on floor just outside the church. I looked around and
didn't see anyone in search of anything so I took it to our pastor. He prayed
for me and thanked me. But before I left his office the owner came in.
The man was really thankful and
happy, he opened the wallet to check its content and as he did I saw its was
filled with foreign notes.
That was how I met chief Badmos
and also became close to my pastor.
After church my pastor would
demand I wait and he would give me money, some clothes and food. I never told
him about my problems but I guess God did.
One day our landlord came to
kick me out because I couldn't pay the rent. It was raining heavily. He told me
not to touch any furniture and electronics that he would use it to cover for
the months I owe.
Without knowing were to go. I
packed the little clothes I had. I also took my fathers office bag containing
the documents, pictures and bunch of keys and left. I couldn't pray, I was
heavy hearted. Slowly I dragged my self to an unknown destination. I was cold
and shivering. I saw a very big house. Its has big trees outside so I decided
to hide under the shade till the rain subsides.
"Hello are you
alright" someone was tapping me to wake up. When I did I saw it was chief
Badmos. When he recognize me he just said
"get up and come inside with me".
Then I knew that the Holy
spirit ordered my feet to chief Badmos house. There is a God that never sleeps
nor slumber.
