DINING WITH MY ANCESTORS

Episode 15 : Proposal and Marriage

Few months to my 25th birthday, Bro Theophilus proposed to me and I accepted because I was fully convinced by God.
Our wedding date was fixed and people were surprised and Sister Mary left the church due to her hatred towards me because she believed I snatched Bro Theophilus from her hmmmm.
Flash back............
During our courtship, I told Bro Theophilus the full story of my life and also gave him reasons why I never wanted to marry in my life time but he wasn't moved, he rather said something that shocked me.

"Sister Amanda. I knew about you before the day I met you in the hospital. God revealed everything to me. At a point I told God that I don't want to marry someone that has been disvirgined but instead of God to answer the prayers, He told me that His grace is sufficient to me. The day we came to the hospital, God sent us on a hospital evangelism in that particular one you were in, He told me the ward you were staying that's why I came to the ward directly. I prayed for your change a very long time ago and in no distant time God answered the prayers and He also bestowed in my heart great and deep love for you. I will always love and cherish you the way you are. I will always respect you as a great woman " he said and tears of joy flowed down my eyes

"Thank you Sir "

"When we get married. I will really treat you like a queen that you are " his voice was full with emotions and I nodded without saying a word.
Althrough our courtship, we never indulge in any ungodly act.

**********************************
We finally got married and it was a great privilege to be married to a Yoruba man or Brother.
First night in Bro's house was not for prayers ooo it was for fun. I normally think that marrying a fire man will be about praying in tongues all night and I was prepared for anything but it wasn't so but I realized that this fire men na them play love pass and their love de sweeter than ordinary men. 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
______________________________
Two years after marriage, we didn't have children because God wanted us to really concentrate on the ministry He gave us. We were still going for ministration and programs as couples and it was even better that way.
God blessed us with finances and we were unstoppably rich. God was still using us to do miracles and deliverances. Souls were giving their lives to Jesus Christ through our ministry.
It was now time for God to bless us so I got pregnant and after nine months, I put to birth triplets that is one boy and two girls. We named the boy Ogo Olorun (God's glory) the girls Aànu Olorun (God's Mercy) and Ore-ofe Olorun (God's grace) but they all resembled their handsome father. Anita and my sister in law assisted in taking care of the children till they grew up.
I was so fortunate to be Pastor Theophilus wife and I was now called Mrs Theophilus. Indeed he was the best and God's perfect will for me.
Our children grew up to love the Lord and the things of God due to the prayers injected into them while they were in the womb.
To God be the glory.
THE END.
