STEEMIT ENGAGEMENT CHALLENGE (WEEK 2): CREATE YOUR ORIGINAL STORY by @tenguhatanga
INTRODUCTION
Hello fellow Steemians around the world, it's a pleasure for me to take part in the Steemit Engagement Challenge for this community. For this contest I will go with Image 1
REASON FOR MY CHOICE
Firstly it presents a beautiful scenerio leading to growth, development and riches. Secondly it presents a reflection of a human person. It is usually very impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case, you fail by default.
The title of my story BE A GOOD REFLECTION
A REFLECTION
Kenneth Bintah lived in a town near a big city Maila called Isoke, southern Cameroon along with his family Isoka was a peaceful community full of many activities and was the center of commercial and industrial activities in the area. He was one of the richest people in the community and was looked up to by many people since he owned a church. He was engaged in many activities which brought him wealth and influence over the community.
HOW HIS ACTIONS AFFECTED THE PEOPLE
• Although a pastor, Kenneth was connected to many criminal activities like,
Owning a gang of robbers
•He owned a group called the vipers made of 6 health and fierce looking boys who steal, kidnap, kill and rape ladies in the community. These guys were terror in the community making everyone scared to walk alone on a lonely street

Kenneth carries out demonic activities and under the umbrella of the church. Many women were childless, some getting used as sacrifice to the devil and many of his church members were losing their wealth. He had signed a path with the devil to sacrifice 2 ladies a month which he did so perfectly with his boys
So many other evil deeds were committed under his watch in the church. Despite all these he would accuse others for committing those crimes and will embarrass his Christians who went wrong in anyway. If a sister or brother was reported to have stolen, fornicated or any other sin he will treat the person like an outcast and make Christians not interact. This made them live in fear of the past not God almighty. Some left the church and others remained but decided to change their ways and were fervent to God their creator. As faith would have it the pastor was discovered by another a small boy Ishmael. Ishmael is a special gift given to a couple with great vision. He had the power to predict any evil and so will always know when the pastor and his boys plan any evil. To safe the land Ishmael will inform the authorities anonymously and the vipers were caught along with the pastor. They were tried by the law and served their punishment which was life imprisonment.

CONCLUSION
This story is a true reflection of how many of us live today. We pretend to be good and humble towards others meanwhile we are the devil himself. There’s a saying that goes your enemy is always someone close to you. No one will treat you badly except the one close to you. As a lesson we should try to give the best we can for we don’t know tomorrow. Let your actions truly reflects you as a person and a child of God.

Saludos @tenguhatanga, que tremenda historia y gran aprendizaje, porue así somos.
Comparto contigo, que muchos no reflejamos lo que debemos reflejar, sino todo lo contario. Por eso debemos cada día ser mejores personas y mejores cristianos.
Me impactó lo del pastor, pero así sucede muchas veces. Te deseo éxito en el concurso.
Ishmael is like a Savior who will know when he will commit his crimes, to help prevent them. A story where you see the deception, but where you also see that there is always hope.
Good work @tenguhatanga
Hi @tenguhatanga,
You have written a beautiful piece of work.I enjoyed it till the end.Some persons cover their sins and evil act under the umbrella of religion and this same people will castigate and hit hard on others for committing a minor sin.
I thank God Ishmael was able to the hidden things that Holy Kenneth was perpetrating and the long arm of the law caught up with him.Thats a moral story.
You have written so well my friend. Your story is very interesting, and educative as well.
This point is so clear, most of the people around us do pretend to love and care for us but deep down inside there heart they are our worst enemies. I just pray that God will change the heart of men.
