Some months back, an ex colleague of mine (a lady) posted something about how Pastor Eno got married to an anointed man of God (Pastor Jerry) with her anger issues and lukewarm attitude towards prayers, which she grew over time with the help of her husband and I laughed.
Well aunty was just trying to encourage her fellow “THAT IS HOW I AM” cartel to stay optimistic, and also to down talk men who think they cannot marry a woman with “a bad attitude”. If a pastor could do it and help the woman along the line, who goes you an ordinary brodah in the choir🤣
I don’t know how some of you receive messages, sermons and counsels but I have come to realise that an average modern Christian is a selective listener, they take messages that are convenient for them and do not push them to improve or adjust their weaknesses, instead they make excuses for their actions with a concrete backup scripture, quotes and someone’s life story to justify their behaviours.
I have been following pastor Eno for a while now and if you are one of those using that particular part of her story to continue living in the lies you tell yourself, I hope you wake up to the reality of life, spirituality and psychology before you drown in your own misconceptions. Stop holding on to just that part of her journey, get her book and read before you ruin your life with your delusion.
Not every man is Pastor Jerry!
Availability is not willingness and willingness is not readiness.
Some of you are very good at confessing change when deep down you are not ready to embrace all that it comes with. You are not ready to surrender your ego, you are not ready to abdicate your pride, you are not even teachable. You want to change at your convenience and timing.
Finally, because I don’t want to type too much. If you are dating a toxic person. You better leave!! Toxic people don’t change!!! They will only change you and at the end of it, you will be tagged a bad person because you subconsciously allowed someone to mess with your mental state.
You will become the bad person for being good to a bad person.
Leave!
Don’t try to manage it if its not an “instruction from God”.
