This is the story of a friend who was never a gambler but on the brink of losing his mother he was forced by nature to risk money on gambling and he won, it's been a long time that this happened but till this day his story still amaze me.
When people are under pressure, there is no limit to the options they can explore to alleviate their condition and gambling isn't left out of the options since there's a possibility of a win, he explored that possibility and got successful, it could've happened either way but nature favoured him
The surprising part is I expected him to start gambling from then on because gambling saved her mother, this could be the way that everyone will think after such narrow victory, but he never gambles after that issue have passed, I did asked him why he chose to not keep gambling.
He answered with a nod and said he prayed for a miracle to happen and something inside him leads him to gamble that day, since the problem is solved he has no business to keep gambling.
Strong beliefs in the effectiveness of something works most times, I remember when I was very broke sometime in 2018 and lost my phone too. I saw a leaked game from a facebook user that deals on fixed matches, staked the game and even did fasting and prayer for the game to come through since it was my only hope. It did come through and bettered my condition for that period in time.
But for that your friend not to continue gambling after tasting gambling wins, it is really a wonder.
