MEET SAMUELLA MY FRIEND. THE ONE WHO GOD SPOKE TO AND LISTENED
Hi guys, so today is Thursday and I decided to do a little throwback. This didn't happen to me personally though, but I thought it was hilarious and decided to share. It happened to a close friend of mine sometime in the beginning of the year. For those of you who know most of my friends please don't point fingers because its highly likely that you would be pointing at the wrong person.
So this friend of mine is a cute figure 8, fair and has the backside. Yeah she is blessed. And she hates to wear pants (boys close your eyes when reading this) especially when she wears trousers. So this day as usual she was on her way to work. Before leaving the house, she wanted to fall into the usual habit of wearing her jean smooth and without any barrier but the Spirit of God ever so kind called out to her:
Spirit of God: XXXXXXXXX *he thundered*
X: Speak Lord, for thy servant listeneth
Spirit Of God: You know that I have watched you do your thing for a long while and have never said anything about it?
X: Yes Lord, You have. Did I mention that I was grateful? Thank you.
Spirit of God: Well today is an exception, break that habit and get into your lingerie drawers and make a wise, grandma choice.
X: Lord, I dunno if I want to make a Grandma choice oh.
Spirit of God: *nodding* trust me baby, you want to.
X: *shrugs* OK
And so my dear X broke a habit and made a Grandma choice. Back to her on the road, she kept walking and twisting. All eyes were on her and she just couldn't get enough of her amazing self.
Lady: Sister, excuse me
At first X ignored and kept walking, like why is this one calling me.
Lady: Sister, excuse me
Abeg lemme just answer this one and hear what she wants to say.
X: Yes? *She turned to her*
Lady: Do you know that your trouser has torn?
X: *bewildered* eh? where?
Lady: At the back.
My dear sister and friend turned to a see a long tear like something that had been slashed by a samurai's sword. Imagine if she didn't listen and wear a pair of grandmas...it could have been worse oh. Oh God!!!! In shame, humiliation and humility she turned to the lady.
X: Please do you have a scarf?
The lady looks into her bag, checks out her scarf, thinks to herself *hmmmm, this my fine, new scarf, abeg oh*
Lady: Sorry No, I cant give you
X: *amazed that a fellow girl won't help her salvage her honour* please I'm begging you. I would bring it to this same place tomorrow for you. In-fact gimme your number I will call you to return it.
She pleaded. Like the girl gave two hoots.
Lady: *with a straight face* No, No vex.
Did I mention that X was at a bus stop. Yeah she was, so she had a mixed multitude to cheer on the shame. Finally one Hausa motorist who respected women and saw my yellow pawpaw friend turning red offered her a dirty scarf he had in his car. Probably one his ex had given him before breaking up with him so he converted it to a rag. Cause I can't seem to find another reason why he would have a scarf in his car. A small towel I can understand but scarf. Anyways its none of my business. So what better way to let go of his ex than give the scarf to X. She even offered to return and he vehemently asked her not to dare. She could keep the scarf for eternity. Ok, I exaggerated a bit, but he told her she could keep it. And so a random stranger helped a friend in need. Talk about the story of a good Samaritan. A christian woman with a scarf refused to help a near naked lady, while a Muslim motorist helped.
There is a good in all of us, lets be open to give and receive it. Plus, the Lord would talk to you, be wise like X and listen. I have heard stories of people who met their demise because they refused to listen to that voice, nudge or feeling that was trying to stop them from taking that step. LISTEN AND LOVE.
Have a lovely weekend ahead and if you enjoyed it or have a similar experience, please do well to drop a comment.
