Chapter Nine

Solomon was definitely on board with Sanderson, but without solid proof, he needed the mind of Christ. He prayed quite a bit about it. He also kept his eyes open, just in case Sanderson was lying to him.

He hated being paranoid, but he was now caught in the middle of his new employer and what he believed to be his ultimate objective. To stop the end of the world from coming, if it wasn’t time.

He needed wisdom, so he prayed intensely over the next several days before he did anything for either side. He knew that making decisions when he was confused was not the right thing to do.

Back in his office, he sat quietly with his elbows on his desk and his head in his hands. He enjoyed the quiet but still thought that he was forgetting something. Then that something came to him.

His phone rang. He had it set on vibrate while at work, but he could feel the vibration on his hip. It startled him back to reality and he grasped it quickly. His heart sank as he saw who was calling him—someone he hadn’t talked to in several days. His mother.

He quickly answered the phone. “Mama! First, let me apologize for not getting back with you. I…”

“I may be old, but I am far from stupid, Solomon,” she interrupted with a calm demeanor. “I know you’re an adult and don’t have te call your mama every day. Unless you love her, dat is.”

There it was. The guilt.

He closed his eyes and tried to breathe regularly. “You know I love you, Mama. It’s just dat I’m caught between the proverbial rock and a hard place right now and I’m having some trouble making a decision.”

The other end was quiet for a few seconds and then she spoke in her sweetest voice. “Now, baby. You know I could have helped you with whatever it is dat’s making you crazy. God can help you more, of course. By just a little bit. I don’t really need to know what the problem is. Let me help in another way.”

He listened intently and with some curiosity. It wasn’t like his mother to completely try to take over his problems.

“I could use your wisdom,” he managed, after trying to think of the perfect thing to say to satiate her.

“Of course you can,” she replied without missing a beat. “No matter what you’re going through, it always comes down to what’s right and what’s wrong. Sometimes, we want someting so much dat we try to convince ourselves dat’s te way we should go, when it really isn’t. Other times, we are caught like a fish in a net, between two friends or loved ones who are pulling on us like we are te rope in a tug o’ war. Still other times, we can’t tell which decision is the right one and which one will lead us down the path to evil and sin. I know you prayed about it. Dat’s te best ting you can do, baby.
