That morning was quiet. The kind of quiet that has a voice of its own. It had rained in the night, and the roofs were still dripping tiny drops of water that sounded like whispers. The sky was pale, undecided between sunrise and leftover clouds. Christian sat by his window, staring into nothing, the way one stares when both the heart and the head are full but speech has gone on strike.
He hadn’t slept well. The dream from the other night, the one about the friend request, had refused to leave him. It kept playing in his mind like a song on repeat. Every time he blinked, he could almost see that golden notification hovering in the air: Heaven Official wants to be your Friend.
He had ignored it again that morning, pretending not to notice. But something about that refusal felt heavier now. He wasn’t laughing anymore. It had stopped being funny.
His room was small. One window, a plastic chair, a table that had lost one leg and was now balanced with a folded Bible under it, and an unmade bed that carried the smell of nights spent thinking too much. His phone, that strange, glowing phone, lay on the bed, quiet but alive.
He picked it up. There was no new message, just the same old notification, waiting.
He sighed and dropped it again. Then he did something unusual.
He knelt down.
There was no keyboard this time, no fancy English. No long preface, no performance. He only whispered, “Lord, I don’t even know what to say… but if You’re really calling me, I’m here.”
That was all. It was short. Almost careless.
But something shifted in the air.
He didn’t know it, but that single sentence traveled faster than any fiber cable ever built. In the unseen world, a post had just been made, raw, unfiltered, and sincere. And Heaven took notice.
If you could see what happened next, you would understand that God doesn’t scroll past sincerity.
Angels saw it first. They began to share it, one after another. “Did you see this?” they said. “From that boy in Ondo?”
Demons saw it too, but they hated it. They reported it instantly, flagged it as spam of repentance, hoping it would be taken down before the CEO saw it.
I also saw myself in that dream, while scrolling through my Faithbook feed, after reading a post I made about esteeming God's Office more than oneself, I scrolled up and saw Christian's post, and just as I was about clicking on the like button, something happened that's unusual on Heaven's Media.
