This is the story of Makanjuola by Evang. Niyi Adedokun. This song came between late 1980s to early 1990s. Probably 1986-1993. MR Yoclan |

A woman baked bread for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra bread on the Window-sill, for whosoever would take it away. Everyday, a hunch-back came and took away the bread. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: "The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!" This went on, day after day. Everyday, the hunch-back came, picked up the bread and uttered the words: "The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!" The woman felt irritated. "Not a word of gratitude," she said to herself... "Everyday this hunch-back utters this jingle! What does he mean? "One day, out of despiration, she decided to do away with him. "I shall get rid of this hunch-back," she said. And what did she do? She added poison to the bread she prepared for him! As she was about to keep it on the window sill, her hands trembled. "What is this I am doing?" she said. Immediately she threw the bread into the fire, prepared another one and kept it on the window- sill. As usual, the hunch-back came, picked up the bread and muttered the words: "The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!" The hunch-back proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of the war raging in the mind of the woman. Everyday, as the woman placed the bread on the window-sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune. For many months, she had no news of him.. She prayed for his safe return. That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway.. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tattered and torn. He was hungry, starved and weak. As he saw his mother, he said, "Mom, it's a miracle I'm here. While I was but a mile away, I was so hungry that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunch-back passed by. I begged of him for a small part of his food, and he was kind enough to give me whole bread. "As he gave it to me, he said, "This is what I eat everyday: today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!" "As the mother heard those words, her face turned pale and red. She leaned against the door for support. She remembered the poisoned bread that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would have been eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life! It was then that she realized the significance of the words: "The evil you do remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!" Do good and; Don't ever stop doing good, even if it’s not appreciated at that time. If you like this, share it with others and I bet you, so many lives would be affected. |

Yoclan: The story is Non-sequitor. How can a parent not recognise their own child even with a lamb? I know your trying to dissuade people from indulging in evil act but you could have used a story that is more pragmatic. |

So nice. Update more [ author=Yoclan post=65957354]Story: WHAT YOU SOW IS WHAT YOU REAP. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• A couple had only one son. And the son worked really had and got a scholarship, he traveled; studied, became prosperous and acquired wealth. He has been away for 10years. So one day, he decides to come home to pay a 'surprise' visit to his parents. He informed nobody that he was coming home. So that day, he arrived the village at night, and went to their door. It was a bit dark; he knocked, Dady and Mummy opened the door. He has disguised his voice, his face and everything so that they won't recognise him (He wanted to surprise them). He said, *"You see, em em.... I am just coming to town, but its late now, is dark, just give me a place to sleep , by tomorrow morning I will go to where am going, I want to go......"* When they [the parents] looked at him and saw what he was carrying, it enters into their eyes and heart. They said *"OK!! You are leaving tomorrow morning....come in "*. With their candle light, they lead him in and he slept The couple planned, at night saying one to another *" Is this not the end of our poverty? Somebody has brought wealth here. Do we allow this boy [the stranger] to go away like that?....."* They took a decision to kill him, so Daddy held the knife while Mummy held the hands and they trust (kill) him through with the knife; he died. They quickly parked him and threw him into the forest at the back. In the morning, fellow villagers were coming to their house, each one saying *"Welcome, we greet you, congratulations!!! We saw your son yesterday , he has finally come back home, we came to welcome him."* ==> These conversation took pace: Daddy: *"Son? My son? You mean my son came back ?"* Villager1: *"Yes.., your son was here yesterday, we saw him going to your house "* Villager 2 : *"Of course , we saw him yesterday night"* They [Daddy and Mummy] now went back to the bush to look properly , then, they found out that they had killed their only son. *Lesson:* Whenever Sin is on The Driving Sit, Shame is Sitting at the Back. So your worst enemy is not really witches and wizards. Your worst enemy is your sinful heart . Do you like stories?? Let me know, I will surely Post more.... A Story Extracted From Sermon by *DK Olukoya.*[/quote] |

Yoclan: Thanks for the info Op, but that story was an old fairytale that was aired in the 90s on the popular TV Series 'Tales By Moonlight' every Sunday evening by 6pm. Besides, a popular Gospel singer, Evangelist Niyi Adedokun, used such story to sing in one of his album... "Ore mi mase kanju, kanju jo' luwa re lo, tori pe t'oba kanju o, ohun to lewu nii..." (My friend don't be hasty than God, if you do, it's a dangerous thing...) I still remember that song since the year twas released up till today. The didactic attributes we learnt in that song was to be patient in everything in life and also with God, and also be contented and have Faith in God, because God's time is the best. |
