Reading Time: 2 minutes

Angie is a single lady of twenty-nine while Betty is a married woman of about thirty-seven years of age. Angie visits Betty who is her mentor.

Angie: Hullo Auntie

Betty: How are you, Angie?

Angie: I am fine

Betty: No, you are not fine. Why is your face like this? (Looking at her intently)

Angie: That is how my face is Auntie; I like frowning.

Betty: No, that is not your face, something is definitely wrong.

Angie: Ok, Auntie, if I tell you, hope you will not laugh at me?

Betty: No, trust me now?

Angie: Ok, Auntie, na husband wahala o! (It is the issue of marriage)

Betty: (laughing)

Angie: You promised you won’t laugh o

Betty: Ok…but seriously, is that the only issue?

Angie: Yes now, Auntie, or won’t I marry?

Betty: But this frown on your face doesn’t solve it

Angie: It is not easy, I am just depressed about it all

Betty: This your face, if I am the man and I see this face, honestly I will take off

Angie: What happened to my face?

Betty: Take a look at the mirror

Angie: Auntie, it is not that bad, it is just the way I feel

Betty: You don’t get it. You want a husband, and now you put up an attitude that will discourage the exact thing you are looking for. Can’t you see that the purpose is defeated?

Angie: It is not easy, and that is how I feel

Betty: You cannot live by your feelings because feelings are fickle, and they don’t represent well. You have to learn to trust God that He will not disappoint you.

Angie: I trust God, I am even praying and fasting

Betty: I disagree with you on that

Angie: But God knows I trust him o…God looks in the heart, not my face.
