The Parable

The man who saw God face to face came to his father’s house. As he entered the compound, children were playing, in the evening. He greeted and hugged them, and then went inside house. The children followed him inside.

 

Inside the sitting room, what some people call parlour, the children each took a seat. But, one child, called Chioma Okafor, the daughter of his sister, followed him to the dining table, where her mother was.

 

The child then engaged the Master and Teacher in conversation, by asking him so many questions, series of questions. The adults wanted to stop the child, but he said to them, “Leave her alone, for she has done what the pastors, reverend fathers, ministers of God and women in the ministry have failed to do”.

 

After another long time, the adults wanted to stop the child again from asking questions, but he said to the adults, “This is the wisest child, for she has spent her time asking about her Father’s kingdom and His righteousness. This very conduct of hers is what the men of God should have done, to meet the man who saw God face to face, to welcome him, and to ask questions. But being selfish, misguided and proud, they neglect this very important duty, and keep themselves busy mocking, teasing, criticizing and condemning the man who saw God face to face, before more than forty (40) times, and now more that seventy (70) times.”

 

Concluding, the Master and Teacher said, “This is another case of Mary and Martha, and this child shall never lose her blessings and eternal life, for she has honoured the word of God more than others.”
