"Bia, my friend, oya come and sit down here." She demonstrated with her hands towards my brother with eyes perplexed, not sure of what is going on in her mind. Maybe disappointment.
"And you, go to that toilet and urinate. Witches will come and kidnap you there. I cried as I walked towards the toilet intertwining my fingers and looking back with sobs in between my tears and walking slowly to see if my pitiful state can bring me pity. But there was no rescue from my mother and brother. Just sat there on the cushion and watched me.
Hello fears, see how you made me look awfully stupid. You made me believe that you were bigger over me. You made me believe no one cared about me. You made me believe I wasn't good enough. Made me believe I had no confidence. You made me believe that I needed people around me. Above all you made me believe in negativity and I lost my praise.
I wouldn't bore you with complex words because I want you to read this. I was your slave for days. This days ran into weeks, weeks into months and months into years. I couldn't help myself. I cried out to passerbys but none was like the good samaritan. Help couldn't help me. Faith wasn't strong enough. But I found Love.
He made me understand that perfect love drives out fear. He made me understand that I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me. He made me understand that I am more than enough. He made me understand that only I and myself alone matters. I began to see myself in a different light and my coast began to enlarge. I didn't realize when you left plus you didn't inform me before leaving. I only found out you were gone when I looked back and couldn't help it but marvel at what the Lord has done.
I understand that you were ashamed and felt defeated. Who wouldn't be on such situation? But that's really good to know. But guess what you made me understand what great love and measure the Father has for me. If I wasn't consumed by you, I probably would be somewhere below and not this apex because the Father's Love hath brought me this far and is still leading me.
Remain defeated while I stay victorious. Good bye to yesterday. Good bye to fear. Good bye to nonsense glorifying itself in me. It is my new horizon. It is my new beginning.
