Dear Diary,
7:00p.m I met this guy in the prayer department. When he speaks in tongues, demons tremble. He prays for hours without going weary. After prayer meeting, I was surprised he reached out to me for a quick chat. He was kind enough to ask about my prayer life. Instantly, I was carried away by his demeanor and lightheartedness. If only we had talked longer but time was far spent and we had to call it a day.
He seemed so interested in my spiritual growth. Instead of my paying attention to the sermon he was preaching, I was lost in fantasy world with him. In faraway land, I was his cinderella and he was my prince charming. Thank goodness, my expressions and body language didn’t give me away. I wished we talked about other topics like schooling, adventure etc. Everything seemed centred on heaven and hell. Anyways, I would want to experience heaven he kept emphasising on earth with him.
I am seriously looking forward to the next prayer meeting. But whom am I deceiving? I was looking forward to having another meeting with Bro ‘Prayo’. I knew how I got tired in prayer meetings. How can I forget the day that an usher had to wake me up from slumber during a session? Thankfully, I was seated at the back, far from the prying eyes of the fellowship coordinators.
I just can’t wait for the next meeting. This time, I position myself strategically. I must also making my speaking in tongues very audible. He must know that I am also spirit-filled. The only issue is that he talks to every lady in the fellowship. So how do I make him show more interest in me? Do I make the first move? But wait, he took time to escort me to the bus-stop. Isn’t that a signal? Doesn’t that show he likes me?
I would have to take things slowly less I spoil this ‘big catch’. But supposing he is woman beater or sexist? There is more that meets the eye. That’s why I would not rush and take my time in getting to know him.
Your truly,
