She said, “I have serious trust issues. God and I have been working on it for a couple of years. I believe I am still on a journey so I am coming to you from the place of still being on this journey. Nobody is perfect and the aim is progression, not perfection. I have trust issues when I am dealing with God or God is dealing with me in specific situations. I even have trust issues when it comes to the most mundane things.”
She noted that she was a very emotional person, and that while watching a movie or listening to a song, she could cry for no reason. She said, “I love movies and I enjoy reading scripts. I also love watching stage plays. I love everything that has to do with acting. I am also very emotional. It used to be a problem for me before because I wanted to be a ‘hard guy’. (However), I have started to embrace it and realise that God created me the way he did for a purpose and it also helps in being able to empathise with people. Now, I see it as a strength of mine.
“I am also the kind of person that cries for no reason when watching a movie that is emotional or listening to a song. I could be watching a film and the scene could be emotional in a sad or happy way. And, I would just start crying because it’s making me sad or pulling my heart strings.”

Some life's challenges will make one have trust issues. Especially when one thinks it's impossible.
ReplyDeleteGod will always be God. He never fails.
She's definitely my twin.
DeleteI have had a lot to deal with of recent and I get so exhausted.
I know God is there but I just get tired.
I even find myself avoiding God and wallowing in whatever I am going through
I really do need strength
I have been drowning for a while now
I hate to share but I totally get her cus I am highly emotional
It'll be fine Push up. Just keep pushing 😘
DeleteAwww @Push Up
DeleteEverything will fall in place at the perfect time. Hang in there
E hugs
@ Push up, It's ok to share sometimes, everything will work out well for your good. I also want you to remember today, that the plans God has for you are for good and not for evil, to give you a glorious future
DeletePush up, I just want to send hugs to you!!
DeleteIs it my eyes or what! Because it looks like she has had a nose job???
DeletePush up I totally understand you, everything would be alright, it's okay to share but just be careful, who you trust in your vulnerability.
DeleteThere was a movie I watched, which had her, Ini Edo and Majid in it. Her nose in that movie was big, I was actually second guessing myself if it was her or not. Until I watched the movie again on a later date and I saw her name on 'caste'...
DeleteAnon 11:38 your eyes are sharp indeed.
DeletePush up are you me? Am I you? This is just where I am right now. Sometimes, I try desperately to find my faith.
DeleteImagine, during morning devotion today, I just burst into tears while singing praises o. I mean, who does that? It was rather embarrassing.
Hmmmmmmm
DeletePush up and Annony 14:49..if you people were in Anambra I will say let's just sit at a place and hang out and share our stories and comfort each other,like 2weeks ago I avoided going to church with hubby because I felt drained, exhausted and lost but lied that I am tired,I didn't know what made my younger sister to call me that morning, knowing me as someone who would not skip church yet called me, when I picked and she asked *you didn't go to church" instead of me to talk I burst into crying and she was so scared she had to travel from her base to mine to know what it is, everyone believes Iam strong but recently my strength is failing me, Ttcing has so much exhausted and drained me that I don't know what to think anymore...I feel God doesn't love me enough or he just enjoys the pain I go through every month or the power of whoever the "prayer people" say is in charge is big that he can't surmount it meanwhile I have known all Power belongs to him!
DeleteThanks a lot guys, I really do appreciate
DeleteVirtual hugs
I am so sorry dearie,I pray God answers you soonest.
DeleteI just can't imagine the pains of ttc mother's.

DeleteI am sure it ain't Nollywood movies that makes u cry.
ReplyDeleteMost Nigerians have trust issues, e dey our body.
ReplyDeleteOfcourse, growing up you notice when people say... "I'm coming" when they're literally walking away, or the little tricks here and there to make you eat or sleep.
DeleteHaving trust issues with God is nothing but lack of faith and without faith it is impossible to please HIM.
DeleteSame thing with me.
ReplyDeleteTrue Christianity is a journey. We keep growing and developing a personal relationship with God.
ReplyDeleteWe're humans, we fall,make mistakes, get up, ask for forgiveness and keep moving. Thank goodness he's an understanding God.
That's the best part. He understands a lot! 🥰
DeleteI amelie her too in being overly emotional, sad movies make me cry, I have learnt to avoid watching them once I notice the storyline. I feel embarrassed, remembering it's only acting dies not help at all, so once it's a sad movie, I change to something else, I am willing to.let go of my curiosity if how it all ended than cry especially if I am.around.people.
ReplyDeleteRecently the ikoyi building collapse had made me cry so much especially after watching the man that hasnt seen his 17 yr old son, he doesnt want justice or anything ,he just wants to se his son's body dead or alive. It was as if the boy is my son OMG!!!. I dont want to hear/read the stories even discussions about it on radio/tv I change the station.
I understand Adesua perfectly.
As for the trust issues, just believe and trust Gid, he sometimes allow terrible things to happen to supposedly good people, it's not that he has abandoned them, sometimes it's a test of faith
God doesn't allow terrible things to happen to supposedly good people. This is a wrong notion sweetheart
Deletelady Diana , I am not attacking you. I just want to understand your take on it when bad things happen to good people.I have had my own in terms off loosing people very close to me and all...jobs falling through atathe last moment, sickness and all. I feel for whatever reason God allows it cos He can stop it from happening if he wants. Remember Job? of course God allowed it if not them no born devil well to do all those bad things to him. I just want your take on it. Thanks!
DeleteWell I cry too, like when Achilles was killed in troy and Ragnar in vikings. Lols.
DeleteLady Di sometimes good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. That’s the way it has always been and will continue to be!!
DeleteAwwwww Deenity if I were watching with you I for tease you tire and laugh you, but tears go dey comot from my eyes small small. Chai...
DeleteI also cry for tiny things like that in movies. Or when i see someone finally getting the good things they deserve in life and being celebrated for it.
ReplyDeleteI don't have trust issues with God. Most of us don't listen to Him. Follow his directions and you are good. But we want to do things our own.
ReplyDelete-->>> Most of us don't listen to Him. Follow his directions and you are good. But we want to do things our own.
DeleteWord.
Yeah you are perfect
DeleteI believe trust issues sometimes occurs from past unpleasant experiences. There are times I pray and I am wondering will this be answered .... or I am just blabbing to God’s ears. I then reject the spirit of unbelief. And ask for God’s help and strength. It is not easy to remain strong when you are in the waiting room . I try to focus on praising or removing my mind completely from the issue . If it works fine thank God . If it does not I move along . There is a prayer platform I joined and I have actually had the prayer written since 2021 January but I am yet to get an answer... I caution myself that God does not follow your deadlines . He can choose to do whatever he wants and if he has not responded then there is something much greater he is cooking up. To all those waiting be encouraged. He will answer in his time and it will be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteContinue to have trust issues with God. Maybe it's the devil you will trust. Na God wey bless you I blame. He would have given your blessings to a more appreciative person.
ReplyDeleteSmh
Delete08:56 Are you human at all?
DeleteThe president of blog witches spotted!! Sir/Madam 8:56am: you must enjoy chilled blood served with plenty ice cubes a lot; not so? Na wah!🙄
DeleteWhen she kept to herself, she was too secretive and fake and unreadable. Now, that she's sharing her innermost thoughts to empathize with or encourage someone, she's not appreciative and her "fame, Banki, Z and other blessings" should've been given to you and your village people okwa ya? Demon!
I totally relate with Susu on this one. Forces surrounding us as humans sometimes make 100% trust quite hard but we silence the doubts and do it afraid with the "faith like a mustard seed". The great thing (as someone noted👆) is that God totally understands us as mortals. God bless you for sharing MamaZ😘.
Anon 8.56 may God give you the ability to show love to others
DeleteAnon 8:56
DeleteYou’re just a perfect example that depict just how many shallow and empty people are walking around this earth. You think having money and seemingly living the good life is what being blessed is about? Yes she might be blessed in that regard but life is much more profound than that.
Honestly I wouldn’t expect your ilk to understand because life to you is nothing more than reveling in worldliness, materialism and being physically Wealthy when you might be spiritually impoverished. You should stick to begging for giveaways on Instagram and screaming “Baba God pick up my call” in your bedbug infested rathole.
Let those who are spiritually sensitive enough to understand what Adesuwa is talking about and going through relate with her. God sometimes takes us through rough paths that’d leave us thoroughly shaken; questioning Him and asking if He really and indeed loves us like He claims although at the end of the day, it’s ultimately for our own good and for His glory.
@amebo and @mrs S, 👏.
DeleteSnarker ,Amebo and Mrs S thank you for typing what I couldn't.
DeleteSome people not only lack empathy but lack wisdom , life is deeper than we think money isn't everything.
Annon you are definitely not what God represents 8;56
DeleteStella you sef! How is this shocking?
ReplyDelete'Yousef' someone's name actually 😂
DeleteYou are not alone on this journey, is not easy to completely put your trust in God especially when you are praying yet you are not seeing results. As human we believe that things should come to us without stress or praying for I but life is not so .
ReplyDeleteGo will help us all to continue, stay strong on this journey.
May GOD Help us all! It is well
DeleteYou gerrit!😘😘💞
DeleteI do t blame her as many are on this table.I entered into a covenant of life with God but i still fear that something bad will happen anytime it wants to happen.To have complete faith in God is not a child's play but in all, i love how he cares for me.
ReplyDeleteSame here, I have trust issues and very emotional
ReplyDeleteWhy should I have trust issue with God when I know the problem is from me. If I can't trust God, who then can I trust? Man abi ekwensu? God forbid. Let's try to defeat self that is always fighting us and then we will know God is really good.
ReplyDeleteMost of us Nigerians have trust issues. Even when we feel it is right, we still have the feeling of it not been true cos of the kind of people and government we have. May God help all of us.
ReplyDeleteAdesua, you will be fine.
I'm so emotional too and I have trust issue from so many bad experiences.
ReplyDeleteThis her rant made no sense. Nothing is new in one crying in a movie emotional scenes
ReplyDelete"Trust issues with God" is not crying in emotional events. There are so much more she
has not said about what she mean here. Until she says that 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐
You obviously don’t have the depth to understand what she said because it made perfect sense, let those who know and understand relate with her.
Delete@Snarker
DeleteWhy not explain it, you ended up saying nothing. It is not everyone that swallow what these your celebs
say hook, line and sinker.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You know these are separate paragraphs taken from an interview and put together? Perhaps you should go do your own full interview so you will bring out from her mouth what she's hiding
DeleteIn a rush to castigate, you miss things that should be obvious to a normal working brain
Delete@Yori...even Abraham and Sarah had trust issues with God..what Adesua is trying to say in summary is that we are only human and we will fall from time to time...if you are perfect all well and good, you do not need God..but for us who still struggle..we need him more than ever..
ReplyDeleteAnon it is because we have not been able to defeat ourselves that keeps fighting us not to have trust. We are not perfect but we are trying through God's help. It is only God that can do it for us. Abraham never had trust issue with God. If he had, he wouldn't have left his father house in the first place.
DeleteWe are struggling with trust because of the things in the world.
No matter how hard it is let us pur our trust in God not man.
@ Yori, I am not the first anon, but I put it to you that Abraham had trust issues with God...at some point. Infact at several points o.
DeleteIf he fully trusted God ALL THE TIME, how come he allowed himself get manipulated into sleeping with Hagar his wife's maid, while still waiting on God for Isaac? Let's not even talk about how he had to lie that his wife,Sarah, was his sister.
One thing I love about the Bible is that it lets us see our "heroes", warts and all, and how God still comes through as God, despite all.
Everyone has been there at one point or the other. Others might yet be stuck in it, like she pointed out. It's all has to do with separating faith from fate. Our journey through life, apart from our decisions, choices and efforts, is determined by those two.
ReplyDeleteIf you are too religious or a believer you attribute everything to God. If you're a non believer, you thrust it on fate. Either way, everyone human believes in a supernatural power that lights or dim their path. Call whatever you like it - God, Allah or the Universe. Whatever it is, one thing is constant - there's a superior ordinance that guides processes.
Everything is not about Christianity, Islam or paganism, there are a lot who are not in any of these spaces and still have life worst or well.
Well said my sake 👌
DeleteHebrews 11:But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
ReplyDeleteMay God comfort you
ReplyDeleteI believe every Christian had had that trust issue in their Christian race, keeping trust can be difficult sometimes. Sometimes we doubt, sometimes we decide to hold on,it involves lot's of patience and faith.No one is exempted from life issues.
ReplyDeleteMehn, I'm on this table right now. But this her 'truth' and from the comment section I can see I'm not alone and to say the truth, I'm kinda relieved. We are all a work in progress. Let's keep holding on.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the many blessings still Baba God
Imagine being raped and infected with HIV then as a teenager you begin to pray to God to change your status but nothing changed lol now I look back and laugh. I'm 28 now and my viral load in undetected but still I ask why me?
ReplyDeleteI can imagine how you feel.😭😭😭🥺 Honestly, it can be pretty hard to completely trust God especially when we face challenges that we feel we do not deserve. I pray God comforts and cheer you up. You are loved by God.💕💕💕🤗💕
Delete🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
DeleteTo the hurting, lost , broken and afraid
DeleteHold on! This too shall pass
With or without that thing we want, HE is GOD and loves us regardless
Make peace within yourself
The strength inside you is great
Even tiny faith in you is recognized by GOD
When you feel yourself drifting, tired, stressed and abandoned
Remember HE said HE will never leave us nor forsake us
Please cry out to HIM
Speak to an understanding person
A problem shared is half solved
Shallom
Be consoled dear Mrs E. Diana.💕🤗🤗🤗💕
ReplyDeleteMay God comfort you Mrs E, I lost one of my closest cousins to cancer about 2 years ago and I still have questions for God till this day. Alot of us prayer and fasted but she still left us.
ReplyDeletePlease do not judge those that sometimes have trust issues with God till you have walked in their shoes. Some of us are people of faith that live by the word of God, pray and confess the scriptures daily, yet we deal with long standing issues without a physical solution in sight.
ReplyDeleteSometimes we become weary but we eventually go back to God. So please go easy with using scriptures to condemn others
🤗🤗🤗🤗
ReplyDeleteListening to Priscilla Shirer yesterday she talked about a young lady and how this lady felt that she had been'cheated'by God, along the line she found out that she hadn't been'cheated'by God but has been 'chosen'. She came to an understanding that where she was, is exactly where God wanted her to be,so she started to find joy in where she was. Priscilla went on to say that is exactly how a lot of us feel that we have been 'cheated'by God but if we will look past the situation we see life lessons to learn from it. Life we always take us through ups and downs but God promised to be with us through it all. You haven't been cheated but you've been chosen,God bless us all.
ReplyDeleteHmmm I understand you , I wish I could talk about mine May God see us through in Jesus name
ReplyDeleteAmen
When u dnt have challenges/issues, you see people that have them not bn prayerful or fortunate
ReplyDeleteSusu, i can relate
I kno wat trust issues are all about
I am the assistant coordinator of people in this category...
I cant share wat weighs me down with people, fam n friends.
I laff at intervals
N deep inside i am nt happy(i am not a sadist, though
It takes an observant friend/famly to kno dat i am down deep inside of me
Until i start claiming every morning that d joy of d Lord is my strength n it works.
I av also come to realise i cant change God, He is d only one dat can change me
He doesnt have time
Time is also a creature like me
I am not there yet but soonest i shall b there
So I'll share my story and hope it comforts you, when I was little I felt I had the gift of healing, every person that was ill and we visited my mum would make me pray and miraculously they would get better until I prayed for an uncle and he died, I was beyond upset like God failed me infact it took me years to heal from the disappointment but the thing is God is God, he doesn't need to prove himself to us. He is God all by himself, he is the maker and we are only tenants and caretakers. The owner decides how and when to do things so I let myself relax that we really don't have a say in this life. The best we can ask for - is that his will be done in our lives. It will take awhile but am sure u would come around because we really are nothing without God. Take heart in knowing that you now have 2 precious angel watching over you every step and every journey and like he said that he would give his angels charge over so that u never hurt a foot, that's exactly what happened for you. May your loved ones Rest in Peace. Amen
ReplyDeletePlease NEVER you say you don't trust God. He is all knowing ,omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent. God's way is not our way. Continue to serve him come rain come shine. Shalom
ReplyDeleteOMG didn't know you eventually lost your mum. Please be comforted, may her soul rest in perfect peace.
ReplyDeleteI'm in this situation but still trust I will overcome it. We have passed through a lot that I sometimes question God. My father died when I was just 8, my mum hustled to take of us and refused to remarry all because of us and now that she should be reaping the fruit of her labour the devil is still on our case. My second brother died 2014, then the Senior one got married since he was the one male left but the wife did not bear any child until he died last month. I did everything possible to save his life but all was in vain.I sold everything we had, plus my husband lost his job because of covid.Watching them breath their last is traumatizing, I feel defeated by the devil. We spent all our resources on my brother's health for him to survive but still lost him. Has Satan not won? Sometimes I contemplate suicide but thinking of what would become of my kids, mother and sister make me hold on. Right now I'm hopeless, no brother, no money to even feed and an helpless mother who cries herself to sleep everyday. Why I no go get trust issues.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm....
