Now i know what it is to be optimistic. I never get tired of telling my story to anyone i encounter because i never know who it could be of use to. Promiscuity started it all. Flirting around has been my way of life right from time and i was convinced that i couldn’t quit untill a pretty sumptuous yellow blondie infected me with AIDS, then i knew i could help it. No one thought me to think after i found out bout my status, i knew it was over for me. Like everyone does which shouldn’t be so, i suddenly became religious, ran to God for confession and forgiveness. Forrtunately for me, i met another guy who also came for confession and the interesting part is that we share the same disease. We knelt on the pulpit as the reverend attended to us and said. ” I don’t want to know how you got the virus but lemme just ask you a question ” Do you feel like dying?” I replied and said” no i don’t feel like dying and the other guy replied ” I don’t know how i feel” The rev said ” your faith shall make you well, go and sin no more. Your sins are forgiven”.
Believe me, still in that faith of mine struggling for purity, after roughly six months i went back to the clinic after serious fasting, prayer and councellor, ran alot of tests and today, i’m free without any blemish, ran back to church straight to the alter and words can’t express how happy i felt expressing my gratitude and then broke the news to the reverend on sitting him. He was happy for me as he read a bible verse to me and said to me that my faith has made u well. On leaving, i asked ” have you heard from the other guy we came for confession?” O yea! e replied. Uhm… he continued, you remember the question i asked you both? Yes, i do. You also rememeber the way he answered me? Yes, i do. Well, his faith wasn’t strong enough, infact, he didn’t believe in it and so, just bout a month ago, He died of the disease, now he’s no more.
That is the big difference between the way you speak and the way another person speaks. E wasn’t positive and also his faith didn’t work for him because FAITH DOESN’T WORK FOR NEGATIVE MINDS neither does it work for A LUSTFUL SOUL. Mind what you say and be positve even in times of trouble. Love they say is in sharing that’s why i deceided to share my story with you so it could be your own lesson. Do learn from it and pass it across to as many as you can…!!!
