"You asked me for the virtue of Humility and I gave you annoying people and difficulties to help you practice Humility. You asked me for wealth and I ensured you have your three square meals and that you never had a need to spend money on your health or any other infirmities. My Son, I have answered all your prayers and even added those you didn't pray for. My ways are different from yours. What you desire may not be what you need. Trust me for I will never mislead you. If you had your ways and were given the type of wealth you desire, you will be overwhelmed by it and you will be ruled by money that you begin to live worldly and turn to evil. Thus, I only ensured that you have enough to take care of your needs such that you won't lose your soul living a ravishing lifestyle."

I woke up and in tears, I knelt and apologized to God for not trusting him and turning away from Him in anger. It was a dream but it felt real. I saw my misconceptions, and my mistakes were glaring at me. I never knew that my prayers have all been answered because they didn't come the way I expected them. I prayed to be rich and live a life of luxury but God the infinite wisdom ensures I lack not what I eat nor be in any debt. I prayed for humility, but the people around me became so annoying that I couldn't stand them. Little did I know that those were the opportunities God is giving me to acquire the virtue of Humility.

I have to return to church the next morning and other brethren were happy to see me because they thought I had abandoned the faith. The last encounter I had with them was when I dropped the role I was given and walked out angrily from the gathering because I felt that God has been unfair to me despite my efforts in His service.

Bro Mike, welcome, we are happy to see you today.

Mrs. Katrina said with a smiling Face.

Thank you, Sister Kat, the lord was kind to me. He visited me in a trance and showed me how he has been there for me all this while. I am sorry I didn't listen to you or the members that God answers all prayers. I now believe that His ways are different from ours, and whatever He allows, is for our good.

That's good…. God is always faithful to His words. Welcome back, Bro Mike.


( Writers Note )

Most times we are saddened by how things are for us despite our service to God. We feel that those who aren't devoted to God are the ones progressing. Sometimes we give up on our service to God and seek alternative means. Let us know today that God knows what is best for us. If what we desire won't be beneficial to us, He will deny it.
