Seeking redress

So a lady sent me a message today
The message contains the picture of
another lady who she alleged was
snatching her husband, the full names
of the alleged husband snatcher and
a request that i help her deal with the
lady!
This is witchcraft!
It is more Christlike to let the man get
snatched than to solicit for evil to befall
the husband snatcher
The husband snatcher is of more value
to God than your marriage
Marriages are temporal
Jesus Christ said "There are no marriages
in heaven"
But the human spirit is eternal!
One human soul will outlive
every human institution and kingdom!
According to C. S. Lewis "Man was
made for eternity while the things
man-made will one day be rolled away"
We have our priorities wrong most
of the time!
While I condemn husband snatching,
wife snatching, cheating and all forms
of ungodliness!
Appealing to the demonic to gain
an advantage over the mundane was
a foolish decision!
The devil does not give free gifts and
once he is invited into a home, he
takes it over!
I have dealt with cases of madness
which had its root cause in
"husband snatching" nothing justifies
doing such evil to a fellow human being
just so that you can keep a man who
obviously doesn't want to be kept!
You have the option of praying to God,
speaking with your man or woman,
changing your character or
appealing to friends and family!
You can also let go and bless him
or her and the "snatcher"
We have hard options that we can
embrace and come out better
than we can ever imagine
What if it was the husband snatcher
sending the wife's picture everywhere
hoping someone will afflict her so
that she can take over the wife's home?
Involving spiritualists and prophets
in issues like this speaks of a heart
that is far from Christ and totally carnal!
Apostle Paul said "Why do you not
rather take wrong?
Why do you not suffer yourselves
to be defrauded?"
I believe this option to be Christlike!
Not cursing or stooping as low as
engaging demonic agents in the
name of keeping your home!
If you have to use demonic influence
to keep your husband or partner,
it cannot be called love!
That is manipulation
That is witchcraft
It is not Christlike
Please let us do better!
Thank you!

Stitches and Time

I got a phone call from the administrative
secretary of my former office
He said he wanted to inform me that
auditors came to the office two weeks ago
and this time around, they didn’t just
do the financial audit, they did the
administrative audit too!
He said as a consequence of the
exercise, one of my former colleagues
who was the assistant Administrative
Officer has been given a letter to
proceed on compulsory leave
to get his certificate!
It seems all he had in his file since 2011
was “To Whom It May Concern”
The admin officer wanted to let
me know what had happened was
not out of bad blood
(He and the young man had never really
gotten along in the office)
He said it was as a result of the audit
and he wanted to make that clear!
I called the young man!
What happened!
He said he was a victim of fake
admission racket and didn’t know
his admission was fake until after
he had graduated and his name
was not posted on the NYSC list!
He said he went home to tell his
father what had happened
His plan was to get some money,
move to Dubai and play football!
His father told him he needed a
job to raise some money before
traveling to Dubai!
They went to a Pastor who was
from their town, he happened to be the
provincial pastor and employed
the young man after they sold him
the sob story!
The provincial pastor demanded that
he face his job and prove his worth
He got the employment in 2011
A few weeks after they employed him,
the office also employed a young
man with SSCE as the facility officer!
The facility officer gained admission
to Lagos State Polythecnic as a
Part-Time student!
He finished his HND in 2018
This young man didn’t do
anything about getting educated or
making right the wrong of the past!
The only notable thing he did was
get married in 2017
The pastor that employed him
retired in 2017
The Administrative officer that he
worked with who knew his story
got transferred
He didn’t see the handwriting
on the wall!
He sat there until he was caught
with his hand in the pot of soup!
Truth be told, this young man is
competent!
He is extremely reliable as an
administrator and proficient in the
use of Microsoft word, excel, etc
His writing skill was also top-notch
and he gets things done without
making excuses!
Why he slept off at the wheel of
his career goals I will never know!
He could have gotten a degree
from the National Open University or
any other school just to keep his job
or increase his prospect of getting
another job!
Thankfully his wife has a job but for
how long will she be able to bear
the responsibility of the family?
Ironically, the guy employed as
facility officer has been promoted to
his position because he has
acquired all the required qualifications
for the job while this guy sat on his
hands!
