On a fateful morning, Sola woke up and she was very hungry…. She then stepped out of the house to see if any of the traders had open their stores… While she walked few meters away from the house she saw a woman selling garri, she was a little excited… At least that could quench her hunger primarily before she gets a better option.
She asked the woman if it was correct Garri Ijebu 😃😃😃😃… The woman nodded in reply and told Sola to taste it……………………..
She tasted it and she was satisfied with it, so she bought it and went home…. Though she still needed to get food.. On her way back home she saw a taxi packed with fresh bread straight from the oven 😋😋😋😋…. She was excited!! She told the taxi man to park, she priced the bread and bought the size she wanted.
She got home about to consume the garri first then the bread follows 🤣🤣🤣… When she paused and asked herself a rhetorical question…. Why can’t we be allowed to taste bread before we buy it but we can taste garri before you buy it? Is it the value??? Is it the packaging??? Or what???

Can we place so much values on ourselves that not every one that comes around you takes advantage of you sexually. There are some goods you can’t pick from the supermarket and open the content unless you’ve purchased it….
Different people can taste garri within 30minutes, whether they will buy or not… But for bread you take it and consume when you’ve bought it… If you are not pleased with the way the bread is,you leave it and someone else will buy it…..
My dear single brothers and sisters…….. Why can’t we allow the buying before the tasting? Be bought legally, joined as husband and wife before touching your bodies…
Purity can’t be underemphasized…. A lot of things are happening… Yea…
We need to be awake to what matters most to God. Stop living in a state of spiritual slumber. Don’t be ignorant and careless. Carry yourself in such a way that before your body can be accessed, it must be legally purchased and heaven bearing you record that you are married….
Your body is a temple of God. There is a spiritual precepts that should govern our lives and distinguish us as believers.. Take your mind off what the society believes or practice. I know the cultural environment has changed… Ehn we are in the 21st century but the bible has said it all.
Heb 13:4
Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
Don’t try to reason out or start negotiating the word of God and try to cull it out to suit your own taste.
Not because pressures won’t come… Sexual urge is not a sin. It only tells you,you are human and complete. 😃😃😃😃
But it could have been wisely managed and handled.
We tend to react in response to that inner demand in a wrong way. Manage that stuff in the lower part of you, otherwise, it will drive you into the mud and you get grounded.
Be strong and take control of those appetite. I know it might be a real battle but you must win so your strength can be defined.
Look away from that which is appealing to your extreme appetite…. Remain incorruptible!
If you’ve fallen before, riseup! The father loves you so much.. Kindly retrace your steps… Remember no tasting until legally purchased……
Shalom..
