Someone once told me that Lucifer, just like God, can appear anytime, anywhere, in a different suit or face. I didn't understand the meaning behind the phrase then, but now I do. It all started with a phone call on Saturday morning. I was emotional at the time, not knowing what to do, whether to call again, about 10 missed calls later. But a divine intervention happened. Out of my wits end, my phone rang. For a second, I thought it was a reply to all the missed calls I just made, but my screen reflected Mama. I hesitated because I did not want her to realize that I wasn't okay. It rang again, and I answered. I broke down. And being the loving person she is, she just listened to me and later, gave her experienced advice. Felt so much better afterwards.
That experience motivated this article... Divine interventions and appreciation. Have you ever been in a situation where you had or were about to break down, but an intervention occurred?
This also took me back to a certain year in tertiary when I was going through what I called hell then. I felt like the world was on top of my shoulders, was tired of crying and couldn't share what I was going through with anyone else. I went to the campus gate, where people would sell veggies and fruits to buy myself something, anything.
Right before me was what looked like a 10-year-old girl. She asked Sisi
- that's what my gals and I called the lady who was selling, a relationship we developed from “borrowing” fruits and veggies too many a times when things were tough, lol - how much a plum cost. Sisi said it was 70cents.... and in true Pta mogwanthi style, attitude and all, the girl shouted: tsooooo, ya tura (it's expensive, with attitude)!!!.... I cracked up, something I needed at the time and afterwards, felt so much better.
So, ladies and gentlemen, what is it that happened at the right place and time, but most importantly, when you needed it to happen? And did you appreciate and acknowledge the person, thing or situation that led to the divine intervention?? Please share your experiences(you don't have to go into detail if you want, lol) and give thanks afterwards...
I would like to thank Mama for being my divine intervention on Saturday, rock on wena o'lady...
Would also like to thank that little girl, even though I would never even recognize her at all. During that moment, she was just being herself, but her being turned out to be the soothing hand my soul needed....
I would also like to appreciate my beautiful and handsome bloggers for sometimes, cracking me up when I need a break.... Sometimes things just get clustered and you need a breath of fresh air or humour...even though it is too much sometimes.....
I would also like, in advance, to thank ma bloggers for not creating fights on this article. And for rocking on by if they do not have anything to say/write. Also, for not criticizing others who do, unless it is constructive. Ke leboga go menagane in advance... :)
The end...
