âWhere is Nelson?â Pastor Moses asked
âHeâs not back from workâ

âSo Nelson will not come and check on me, this is the second day have been away from homeâ Keji cried bitterly.
A lady ran to the church premises singing and dancing
âGod when? when will you answer me, when will you give me my miracle, that will cause me to dance like the lady over thereâ
âKeji!â pastor Moses called her, âwhy are you sober, I told you everything will be fineâ
âDaddy why is it that any time I ask God for Miracle, He will always give me the opposite, am I not one of His children?â
Pastor Moses laughed âyour Miracle is on the way, your release from the hands of the ritualist, was it not a miracle?â
âNo is not, not the miracle I would pray forâ she wiped her tears
âAh why will you say that your pregnancy is a miracle, do you know how many people out there looking for thisâ
âDaddy this pregnancy is the worst thing that has ever happened to meâ
âKeji?â He screamed her name
She moved closer to him âWhat I want to tell you now, please sir donât tell anybody, the pregnancy is for one of the ritualistsâ
âJesus! What! How come?â
