A Trusted Brother

Blessing POV

It was past three in the morning, and we just finished having a night vigil at the church. I didn't want to drive back to my apartment at that late hour, so I decided to remain in church and wait a little longer for the break of dawn before leaving. 

I was discussing about the upcoming youth convention with a group of sisters in the choir, when I felt someone tap me on my shoulder. 

I turned to see brother Thomas, our newly elected youth leader standing behind me.

"Sister Blessing please if you don't mind, I would like to see you for a minute." He said to me smiling.

"Yeah sure brother Thomas." I replied, as  I excused myself from the group I was having a discussion with.

I have known brother Thomas since I started attending this church about six years ago, and he is one of fervent men I look up to spiritually.

"Good morning sister Blessing, please let's have a seat, if you don't mind?" He asked me.
