Hello my fellow steemians, it's another beautiful and exciting day. I want to say thank you for always giving out your time to read my post. So yesterday was another memorable day for me.

Morning

I woke up yesterday to feel the warm breeze in the environment. I said my prayers, and later went into the bathroom to have my bath because I had to go to the phone technician to give out my second phone.

So I went to the POS stand to withdraw money that I would use to transport myself to where I would be going.

I got to the POS stand and unfortunately there was no network, so I could not withdraw the money. But I was grateful that I had at least one thousand naira (#1000) with me to transport myself to church later in the evening at 5:00pm.

Evening

About the evening program, it was a communion / anointing, so I had already pictured myself in the church. So the one thousand naira (#1000) was my saving grace because I said to myself, I won't miss it for anything in the world. I went back home to rest, watch movies and cook.

At about 4: 00pm, I started preparing to go for the holy communion/ anointing service. By 4:15pm it started drizzling, and I thought it was just a drizzle. It would subside. Suddenly the rain fell so heavily, since I had determined to go to the service, I carried my umbrella and left the house.

Lo and behold, the rain that fell covered the whole street, hindering people from crossing to the other side of the road. So I majestically went back home.

I started taking out the power bank, Ipad (Ict gadgets) out of my bag. But a thought came into my mind to remind me of my determination to be in church no matter the situation. So, I jumped out of the chair and packed my ICT gadget (electronic device) back into my bag.

​

This time around I had to take my shoes off so it wouldn't get wet by the rain water. When I got to where I was supposed to cross to the other side of the road, the mighty body of water looked like a river in my eyes, cars were coming from different directions. I was afraid because the whole street and road was covered with rain water.

I started moving backward to go back home again, then I saw a little girl about 15 years old walking towards me, so I waited and asked if she would cross the water, then she too started getting confused about which direction to take.

That was the moment I knew I had to be brave. I held her by her hand, then I discovered others who were behind her also held her hand, so I became the person leading. I was conversant with the road, so I knew where the gutters were, and I advised them to take one step at a time. Little by little, we successfully crossed to the other side of the road, then I breathed out.

I was lucky to see a tricycle that would drive me to my destination. When I went to church my clothes were wet even though I had an umbrella with me.

The Communion and anointing service went well, and I was glad to be in church for the Communion and to be anointed by the man of God. My heart wass filled with joy.
