Third Person's POV.

     Six months after Akinlolu started teaching at Daylight College, he was in SSS 3 class one Wednesday morning when he heard that still little voice,

"Tender your resignation letter tomorrow. Your life will receive a turnaround." He looked around the class, the students were doing the exercise he had given to them, he asked,

"Did someone say anything?" The students looked up while some shook their heads and the others said,

"No Sir." Akinlolu turned back to the note he was making and he heard the voice say the same thing again and again. Then he knew it must be the voice of the Supreme Being, God.

'But really, God has started again, if I resign now, what will we eat? How will we survive? The rent of the house has just a month to get due, how will we pay? We barely have enough to eat!' He thought, then that scripture came to mind For after all these things do the gentiles seek;for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. Another scripture also dropped into his mind that goes thus; that God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

He decided to obey the voice because God is not a man that he should lie, if he says he will do something, he will do it.

So he tendered his resignation letter the next day to the Principal. The man tried to convince him otherwise because Akinlolu had become one of the best teachers in the school but he refused and he left with the salary of the day's he worked since it was not up to a month.

     The next day around 09:00 am, Akinlolu woke up and he went into the kitchen to see Adara crying,

"Adara, what's this? Why are you crying?" She turned to him and he took her in his arms and hugged her. After a while, the tears subsided and he asked again,

"What happened?"

"The headteacher at Teal Schools said I should stop bringing doughnut to the school and that is the place I make the most of my sales."

"Ah-ha, but why did he say that?" Akinlolu asked and she looked away uncomfortably,

"Adara, what did you do?" Akinlolu asked,

"He wanted to sleep with me. I refused."

"Seriously? That old smelling man! He needs to be given a good beating. Dear, just calm down. All will be well."

"Why aren't you at work anyway?"

"I stopped working yesterday."

"You stopped working? Tell me that is a joke. How can you stop working? We barely have enough to eat and then you stopped working?"

"God told me to stop working."

"What! How will God tell you to stop working? Can't he see what we are passing through? You didn't tell me Christianity is all about hardship and poverty."

"Shhh. Do not say that. Christianity is not about hardship or poverty. In fact Jesus died so we can be poverty free. We are rich Adara even if we do not have those material things like flashy cars, fat bank accounts and gigantic houses that make up the wealth of this world, that is only a matter of time. All these can't go on forever. God is just trying to break us, process us and make us for the time to come. If I had given up, you would not have met me. Stay firm, okay?"
