Beggarly Attitude Of A Woman In My Church by wwwkaycom(m): 11:15am On Mar 16, 2021 |
I and my family moved to a new area in January. As a result of this, we started attending a new church, a gospel church. Barely two weeks after joining this church, a woman accosted me and narrated a terrible story of her lack and penury to me. She asked for an assistance of just N3k to meet some family needs. I wanted to do transfer to her immediately but she told me she didn't have bank account, I had to walk a distance of about 1km to withdraw from a POS while she waited for me beside my car. I gave her the money and pitied her so much. Two days ago, she came again with another story and asked for N5k, I promised to find her 5k by tomorrow Wednesday. I later told her story to the church secretary to see if people can join me to raise some money for her to start a small business. This man told me to stop assisting her because its just a bad habit which the church had warned her against several times. I got to know that her husband who she claimed is jobless is actually engaged as a bus driver and tries his best in providing for his family, I also learnt that the stories she told me are the same stories she always tell new comers who she think are comfortable enough to continue to siphon money from. I also learnt that the church have assisted her in starting business twice and she ran the businesses aground on the two occasions. I felt so bad after hearing these about the woman, the church secretary even called three families who this same woman have related to in like manner before now, they just shook their heads and told me to stop giving her money. They all said that's how she usually start small and build up the amount She'll ask for gradually. I was even told how she wrote to a particular family that have relocated abroad and told lies about herself and got up to 250k before the church's pastor could get to know. What manner of a woman could this be? Unfortunately I've promised to give her 5k tomorrow, should I go ahead to fulfill my promise or tell her all I've heard about her? Should I allow the church secretary to call her and warn her as he suggested he'll do? I'm confused! 1 Like 1 Share |

You already earmarked the funds to her. Just give it to her. When you do, look into her eyes and ask her never to ever bother you again or else you'd report her to the pastor. Shikena! 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Give it to her, after giving, tell her that you have contacted the church to see how they can help her and they have told you what you were telling us now... That will put her in her place... Your word is your bond I believe.. but if you don't feel comfortable doing it, you don't have to... 3 Likes |

Don't give it to her. You are encouraging her scamming attitude by doing so even after the church has told you how she had done the same to new families. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Why is the church who is suppose to give her discouraging you from giving her? Give her the one you promised her. If it's within your power to give or help her establish a small biz like you suggested, go ahead. |

wwwkaycom:. Op not every giving is of God or will be rewarded especially when you know you are not giving to a fertile ground. The church has already told you how she has been scamming members of money and you still want to reward her. Please give to who really needs it not a leaking basket. These kind of people are common in churches. They will pass a note when it's offering time to beg for offering money. Yet if you give them, they won't drop it as offering. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Tho you promised her, but now ..reality has shown you she is different from what she appeared to be, which was your reason to have sympathy for her life. You can't let a person with this habit of hers reap from you with that unfortunate format. Only God will have compassion on those he will have compassion for. Only God keeps promises, it is not necessary that men do, especially when realities exceed expectations. Quit encouraging the woman....you no owe am. 2 Likes 1 Share |
