They argued that COVID was still at large but I leveraged on the fact that people were still moving about so, in July of 2020, I left the village for Calabar. After I left, I fell sick again but quickly got better, and did not fall sick again.
Needs Supplied
After giving my life to Christ, the Lord took care of me in ways I cannot fully explain. The Lord provided my food and water without me having money; but, subsequently, I got a job to cook at a restaurant around the time because I did not want to rely on old ways of getting money like working for alcohol brands.
Cooking large pots of food at the restaurant was a miracle on its own because prior to that time, I had never cooked any food more than six (6) cups of rice. The job demanded that I cook no less than twenty (20) cups of rice per time. I remember getting the job and fretting on how I would cook such a large amount of food so I called my mother and my sister and asked them to tell me how to cook fried rice. They gave me their own recipes which ended up confusing me. So, I prayed and asked the Holy Spirit for help.
On the first day, I heard the Holy Spirit’s calm voice tell me what to do from time to time; I heard Him tell me to add some veggies to my sauce to improve the flavour, then add the rest later so they would stay crunchy; I heard Him tell me ‘stop’ when I was adding ingredients, and I heard Him tell me to add some more when it was not enough; and, at the end of that day, I successfully cooked my first large pot of fried rice. By the next day, my boss asked me what I put in the food because it was delicious and they ran out of fried rice quite early and had to call it a night!
As regards my feeding, after I asked the Lord for food one of those days, as I was about closing from work, my boss asked me if I had taken food and I responded in the negative. Upon further questioning, he realised that I had not even carried food in the past. He was very shocked and told me to carry food after the day’s work. In his words, “You eat from where you work”. So, steadily, I started eating fried rice and ram meat with bananas everyday without having money except for transportation fare.
