Am I Not Better Than Them? By Linnie Lovin.

Am I Not Better Than Them? By Linnie Lovin.

"We'll leave this time for our sister Mrs. Eno to lead us in powerful prayers" the pastor said

Mrs. Eno came up to the podium and led in strong and powerful prayer points. In the course of the prayer, yokes and chains were lifted, and broken.

Mrs Eno was a widow in her late 60s,with 3 children, she was such a devoted Christian in her church, she was a good suprano singer in the senior choir in church and a prayer band leader.

She was well known in her neighborhood as a good lady

*****************************

"You are next to give a sacrifice. The great mother cat, has chosen your son, and you have to kill him in ten days time, else..... You know the consequences" one of the witches said in their meeting

"I'll do as our great one has commanded " Mrs Eno replied.

Ten days were getting near and Mrs Eno could not succeed in killing her son. She had planned in so many ways, but her son who was in Abuja working, was always escaping all forms of her attacks.

*****************************

On the tenth day....

While Mrs.Eno was ironing and preparing for church, something entered her and the next minute she was outside, shouting in the neighborhood and this attracted many people to her....

"hahaha, I killed him, I killed him o, my husband, I killed him, I sacrificed him in my witchcraft coven" Mrs Eno confessed

"chei! Tufiakwa!" people exclaimed, shrugging their shoulders

"that's not all, my first daughter I took her womb, we ate it in our kingdom, hahaha, my second daughter I made her senseless, we destroyed her brain because her future was too bright.... as for my only son, he's spirit is stubborn and strong, he was supposed to be the next, but I don't know why I couldn't kill him " Eno kept on confessing and laughing.....

"chei! If someone told me Mma Eno was like this I wouldn't av believed, she was such a good Christian, everyday she's always going to church service, everytime she's always with her Bible " Mr Okonkwo said

"My brother, I'm shocked, hmm, all these Christians that say they are going to church, me that doesn't go to church , am I not better than them?, even someone like Evangelist Thomas or whatever he calls himself, that one came back from church one day and got into a fight with his neighbor over a little matter, and eventually landed himself in prison " Mr Donatus replied

"hahaha, my brother, imagine that choir leader Ngozi that behaves holy holy, she got pregnant and doesn't even know who is responsible for her pregnancy, cos of jumping from one man to another " Mr Okonkwo added

"So funny, these christians, they should stop deceiving themselves... At least we are better than them.... We don't go to church, we don't pretend, we live our lives normally. " Mr Donatus said

"I tell you, we are far more better than them, come let's go to Mama kube's joint and drink some palmy and dog meat, lets leave this woman who claimed to be a Christian " Mr Okonkwo said.

*****************************

One of the reasons we still have unbelievers in the world is because of the characters displayed by christians.

.

Most attitudes we display as Christians have caused the unbelievers to ask the question am I not better than them?

.

Most ungodly characters we display, have made them consider themselves better than us. Which is not supposed to be so.

.

A Christian is supposed to live a life that others will imitate.

Let's live a good life, a life that serve as a good example to the unbelievers.

Just as our Savior, Jesus had shown us a good example which brought us near to him.

As a Christian, Let your life be an ATTRACTION not a DISTRACTION from SALVATION

Fear

This thing about fear and guilt... Fear is the most basic and fundamental human feeling. I say basic because from your infant stage you're born prone to fear; you fear the dark and the emptiness; you fear the blurry and what you may encounter in the unknown. I say fundamental because- in life generally you learn from trial and error, you lift up a glass jar, it falls and breaks and you learn. You cook a meal, it burns and noting you observe. But not all life lessons fall under trial and error. There are just those things which if you fail at- there just ain't no coming back. Which is where fear comes in. Being scared keeps you within you lane, and usually if your basic instinct is to run away you ain't wrong. Our elders- they grew up with fear; which had it's pros and cons necessarily. I remember how scared I was to get a beating, be at home or at school. When I was a kid back then the very thought of boboko baffles me ... That kept me from messing up, it kept a lot of ...

When LOVE is LUST

GIRL: I'm sorry I have to let go  I know I said I wouldn't  But Its the best thing to do BOY: After all the promises The love we shared And the future we plan GIRL: It breaks my heart alot To be our love destroyer  But it is for the best.  BOY: Why now, when I need you Because I gat no Benz Change is constant  GIRL: Love is blind at first sight You were my Lamborghini  BUT not anymore. BYE (Behind the stage. The Moderator come out)  MODERATOR: Love they said is blind They said is beautiful  But sometimes we realize  That all that be was LUST When the love was Lust Something need to be done It doesn't matter who pull The plug of love that was lust Two hearts now cut apart Lesson to us all LOVE is not LUST LOVE is not BLIND Let our hearts lead us  And not our brains Farewell..........  (light fades....)
