BRENT MIND LINGERS ON THE SWEETNESS HE FELT

'I know she is just visiting for a few days but why is she without money and lives as a homeless?

Johanna is wealthy and has the means of helping her cousin who came to visit her, so why hasn't she searched for her cousin in these few days? Doesn't she care about her cousin's well-being and if she gets hurt in a strange place or is she still on her honeymoon?

Regardless of what had occurred at the wedding, she should have made sleeping arrangements for Jessy not because she was her cousin but because she was also her visiting guest. Johanna's actions just prove how heartless and selfish she is.'

Brent wanted to shift his focus as anger boiled in his heart for the way she had treated Jessy. Refocusing his thoughts from Johanna to Jessy, he allows his mind to linger upon Jessy from the time he enters the apartment and sees her asleep on the sofa with her beautiful body exposed.

Recalling from the moment she woke up, 'It was like she was seducing me with her nakedness, I know she was not aware of my presence, her behavior was so natural as though she was worry-free and uncaring of what tomorrow holds and all will be well taken care of.'

Her heart seems to be so pure which makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed. Why is that? why does that give me joy and sweetness deep within my heart?

Brent knew his mom was anxious to get him married and get grandchildren but what could he do if Jessy didn't say yes?

Knowing he needed some divine help and intervention from above and only the Lord could do it for him.

Sprinting off the bed and getting on his knees he decided to pray. It was only then he felt a soothing peace in his heart.

He rises early before the sunlight seeps into his room. He knew the few hours he had slept was good, he felt energetic and rejuvenated after getting a good night's rest. Ready to face the world especially when he thinks of meeting Jessy at the workplace.

Before organizing for work that Saturday morning, Brent knelt by his bedside and prayed sincerely, putting his whole heart into it.

"Oh God, please speak to Jessy's heart, let her accept my proposal. Lord, I am sure she is the one because while she was kissing me, I felt as though our souls were knitted together. She is so easygoing, and she makes my heart glad, please help me to have patience and to control my emotions. And Lord, I am sorry for lying to Mom, but Jessy seems to come from a poor family and that might be troublesome and unacceptable for Mom to accept. Also, it might bring about conflict and a lot of difficulty with Mom. I want to introduce her slowly, I pray and hope Mom will accept my choice, please grant me favor."

Seeing it was already after six when he got off his knees, he hurried and made preparations for work.
