I Like You, But Pray About It! by Boomboost(m): 6:22pm On Sep 03, 2015 |
Femi Owolabi It is commonplace with Christian sisters. The 'let me go and pray about it' response. There was this girl in the neighbourhood that I had an eye on. She like[d] me, too. One evening, while lounging somewhere, she forgot her head on my shoulder, and being the gentleman that I am, I stole a kiss on her forehead and when I wasn't restrained, I stole some more. Be my girl, I told her. Let me go and pray about it, she said. It will take a week or two. And I waited. That Sunday evening, when I called to get the long awaited response, the hope was dashed. They said there's no way o, Olu, she told me. Who are the they? Where did you pray? But shebi you like me and I like you, why can't we just rock on and then pray to God to keep us? When in school, a lady told me to go pray about it when I told her I like her. I said I ain't praying about anything, that I don't disturb God with small issues like this. She said she likes me o, but I must pray about it first. The next time we saw, I told her that I've prayed. And the Holy Spirit told me you are my wife. She took it to the board of pastors. I was summoned. How does the Holy Spirit talk to you? One of the pastors asked. Dear Lord, at the time I was a radical comrade, see me see question! How does the Holy Spirit talk to you, too? I pointed my index-finger at him. This 'praying about it' thing is not even biblical. Correct me if I'm right. Where in the Bible did you see any woman going to pray about it? Oh, I love Ruth. Gaan read her story. When I did an extra biblical study of that story, I found out that Ruth actually seduced Boaz. See the Book of Ruth, 3 vs7 (KJV): "And when Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was merry, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of corn: and she [Ruth] came softly, and uncovered his feet, and laid her down." In the Hebrew tradition, when a lady comes to where you lie and uncovers your feet, na seduction! Someone is saying I should wait two weeks so she prays about it, when she already likes me. SMH What am I trying to say sef? See, love is love. Love is a thing of the mind. Even if, when you pray about it, you are told that he will die immediately after the wedding reception, or declared bankrupt, go ahead honey, and marry him! Yes, because you love him ni. And errm, why do some Church authorities request for HIV|pregnancy and other test results before joining the man and the woman? Whether the man is Ebola positive or SS, is it not the woman's wahala as long as she's in love? Okay. Bye. |

The presentation of the article suggests it should never be taken seriously. The last paragraph is really laughter provoking. Conclusion. Op, just go and sleep it out. |

CaptainJune: Apparently you don't have anything to contribute. Why is it necessary to pray to god to get married when you already feel it in your heart. I was hoping you and your goons will give us ONE example of where you had a problem and "prayed" about it and the problem was actually solved. Like ALL the problems that have been plaguing us in Nigeria for decades. All your "daddy GOs" ever do is advice people to pray but it seems your god is yet to come up with any solution. And op, you really need to stop falling in love with ladies that are brainwashed by their pastors and who can't think for themselves 2 Likes 2 Shares |
