“Are you an angel?”
The man whose rent was paid went ahead to narrate how he has been praying for a solution to his house rent. He revealed that things have been tough for him lately as he was transitioning between jobs.
I was sacked
He added that though he has in the past been paying his rent on time, the recent unexpected turns in his life made it impossible.
He said:
“The company I work for got sold out, and we were basically left out in the street, literally. Even this morning, I told my nephew, I said ‘You know, the last thing that I could have that I will not give up is hope.”
The happy beneficiary called his wife to tell her the good news as they both thanked the man for his utmost kindness.
