Thought 1” Why do you keep on putting your faith in things that you cannot see? I mean, you can always give up… right… right Val? Why bother with unseen things?”
Thought 2‘Ok, so you’ve been making all these applications but He will never stop fighting for you. Just keep believing.’
Thought 1: “Pure Nonsense, whimsical if you ask me. The world is full of faithless people, but they are becoming millionaires.’
Thought 2: ‘Life without faith is an arid business. God exists’
Thought 1 “If he existed, he would have already provided that opportunity. Be that as it may, you would be promoted, living a comfortable life by now. 24 is almost here and you don’t even stay in your apartment. Let’s not even talk about you having that Audi that has been in your mind. It’s a farce’ Your agemates have made it, your parents don’t trust you, your friends have established relationships. You have NOTHING!”
Thought 2 ‘ Why do you have to be so harsh’
Thought 1: “Because you need to know the reality on the ground. You can’t keep on burying your head in the sand.”
Me: A little broke inside. I can’t even love myself.
Thought 1: Ooooh oooh… She’s about to go bonkers, She doesn’t have it in her to become strong.
Thought 2: Be reasonable, you are being too harsh. Let her cry. It’s therapeutical
Me: (sobbing uncontrollably) Oh Lord, why are things not working out. You said that All good things work for the good of those who love you.
***
Still small voice: Be not discouraged, for I am with you. You are blessed and beloved of the Lord. Don’t let fear cloud your judgement
Me: How will I know this is true?
Still small voice: How will you know if you don’t trust me?
Thought 2: And when you ask, have faith that you have received it.
Me: Tell me, more
Thought 1: Y’all are mad… I’m out of here (Leaves the scene cursing and complaining.)
Thought 2: Be of good courage and trust God. The rest will fall into place with time. He has promised you so much more. More than you can ever imagine.
Me: Smiling after hearing words of encouragement. (STORY FADES WITH ME LEAVING WITH A SMILE)
