That year, I enthusiastically planned our family's expenses for November, expecting a specific payment. But to my surprise, it didn't arrive - no email, no SMS alert, nothing . My faith momentarily turned to 'Fanta' as sleep evaded me .
Next morning, I cooked Efo Riro with shredded Norwegian Oporoko. Lost in thought, I forgot to remove cinnamon sticks from the Oporoko's jar and poured everything into the soup! Two big cinnamon sticks joined the mix .
As it cooked, I detected cinnamon and wondered, 'I didn't use cinnamon, what's going on?' . The taste confirmed my fears: 'Ah, cinnamon ke, ninu efo riro?' (Cinnamon in my Efo Riro?) . I rushed to my husband, 'Babe, I accidentally added cinnamon. No chop am! E resemble Oporoko. Help me remove it!'
Despite worry about the uncertain payment, we trusted God, knowing He fathers us well, even when His ways aren't clear or mine . 'Babe, what if we don't get the money? How do we run the month?' We hatched plan B, trust Him more come what may .
Ironically, the expected payment arrived, and another client confirmed their payment . God showed up! I'm grateful; if not, where would I find the energy to share this story? Imagine if I had given in to worry? I had Fanta, not faith, that day! He cares ; I've learned to submit to His sovereignty, despite my stubbornness .
