Pain.After the call ended I couldn't help but think about Clover's situation, though Clover was always happy and Smiling she still had some hidden pain and scars, that's why I love the quote, ' don't judge anyone because you know their names but not their story, you notice their cuts but not their scars, you see their smile but not their pain, you can read their lips but not their minds. 'Clover's Mom left her when she saw just Twelve and Since then she had been all alone with her Nanny as her father was a businessman who hardly had any time for her, Months after her mother's death, her father brought in a woman who he claimed was his secretary, he said that he was going to get married to her and she would become his wife, Clover was very hurt because she was very well aware of how much her mom loved her father and was willing to sacrifice anything for him but it didn't even take her father up to a year to decide that he was going to take a second wife. Two weeks after the introduc

Chapter 13 * Remember God is with you and he will be with you unto the end. * **** ----- Mia ----- * Many are the affliction of the righteous but the Lord delivers them out of it all. * I didn't know where this came from but the words just kept ringing in my mind as I prepared to sleep that night. Earlier I saw in the headlines how christains were being persecuted in the northern part of the country. They are being denied Job promotions while some aren't granted paid employment. Christians are being exploited and mistreated... All because they believed in the Lord Jesus Christ. Christain schools are also being shut down as some gunmen kept barging into the schools to afflict the students, especially the female children. Whenever I hear of female students being sexually abused... I feel that pain in my heart. That one that was really very difficult to fear. Sometimes... It feels like my heart is being ripped off my chest and it really hurts a lot. Like seriously! I f

Chapter 15* Believe in the living saviour. *****---- Clover ----All my life I have been a Christian but mainly a church goer. Yes... I believed in the Lordship of the Lord Jesus Christ. I believe that he's Lord of all...I also believed that he died for the sins of all man kind... But that was only what I knew.I never felt the need to have a more deeper and intimate relationship with my Lord. I didn't realize that I don't have to struggle all by myself as my Lord is more than ready to help me and all I needed to was to simply ask. I knew God loves me since everyone believes so.And John 3:16 also agreed with it too.As it says, * For God so loves the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life. *I know this... But I never for once personalized it.I never knew God loves me so much that he wanted me to have a good life... One devoid of sadness and grief... I have read, John 10:10 multiple times but I never

>* Love your neighbors ( fellow human beings ) as yourself. *****A fellow student, though one not recognizable by Mia and clover since there were lots of students in their school and of course they can't know everyone. The girl was being sandwiched between two guys as they harassed her. She tried her best to break free from them but couldn't.They had her mouth covered with a handkerchief so she wouldn't scream out and of course so no one would hear her. The only reason Mia and Clover were able to hear her scream for help was because the girl managed to bite one of them and was able to break free for a split second. The two boys who were actually students of their school though not ordinary ones as they were among the bad gangs whom no one cared to mess with. They also were not scared of anyone... Not even the teachers as they possessed some kind of secret powers as the rumors claimed. So even if it were a teacher that caught them harassing the girl... They would

>* Never stop believing and trusting in the one true God. ***** # Breaking News. " Some unknown men barged into a girl's only school earlier and kidnapped 25 girls. The security officials in the state are still trying to track their location. Stay tuned to get more information on this... Thank you. " The Broadcaster announced.." Sweetheart, do you think there will be an end to this? Mia's mom asked her dad as they cuddled in the sitting room on a Tuesday evening." I believe so... " He sighed. " Am really scared, Sweetie. The country is no longer safe for us or our girls... Like the level of insecurity is really very high right now. "" I know... But we've got no reason to fear. Remember, Psalm 91 : 7&8 where it says, " Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you, these evils will not touch you. Just open your eyes, and see how the wicked are punished. "" I know right... But this are also affecting christains too! In Fact they are mo
