Buenos dias a todos,
I have been writting posts about marriage beacause I feel inspired to share my personal experiences in marriage to help save other marriages. Along the way, I realized other couples also wanted to share thier experiences as well to help save more marriages. What a blessing God has given unto us to expand His kingdom. Come one, come all. Let us go out there and save more marriages.
Today, I am narrating the full story of this same beautiful man I met a long time ago. FYI, he is even more beautiful presently.
I met him when I had just completed High School. He had also just completed College. I was working as a sales girl in a garment shop. A colleague of mine was his friend. He had come there to visit her and give her a flyer advertising a drama school he was starting. We had common intrest: film making. I still remember that first glance at him clearly like it was yesterday, ''What a beautiful boy'' I thought. Then took a second look at him. This time making sure I was seeing properly. ''indeed he is really beautiful. How can a boy be so beautiful.'' I took a flyer and started attending his rehearsals later on.(not because I wanted to get close to him but I genuinely wanted to become an actress then).
Well, he honestly told me after some few sessions I was not a good actress. LOL. So I never even tried again. However, he told me I could try writting scripts. We grew closer and started dating. It lasted two months and we broke up.
By this time, I was looking to enter the University. Do you remember the hint I gave in an earlier post about my parents not agreeing to send me to the University, well because they were not financially stable to do so? While I was looking for plan B, he suggested I go to the College for special training as a teacher. I had no idea something like that existed. I only knew Preschool - KG - Primary - Secondary/High school - University - Job!
He explained what teacher training Colleges were and courses offered there. I agreed to it, told my parents, they accepted to fund that, so I went.
We were still intouch with each other, communicating once in a blue moon strictly as platonic friends. I even knew he was in a relationship with a girl and I was happy for him. I was also in a relationship with someone else whom most of my friends knew. For three years we were only friends, who knew almost everything about each others lives.
I completed my training and was posted to a city close to where he was. One day he called me and his first words were, ''Caro, can you please come back so I can marry you?''
I laughed and asked what drug he had been taking. He answered me though, ''I have realized I want to marry you''. I just kept laughing at him, brushed his request aside and blew him off. Little did I know he was serious.
Some months later, I went home to visit my parents. They were in the same city as him. He was even teaching my youngest brother. I took advantage to visit him. He made his intentions known again. This time he was too serious. I decide to give it a chance.
Two years later, we were married.
Note that through all those years, we called ourselves Christians but we truely did not even know what our faith meant. We went through day to day activities without really being close to God. We did not have the Spirit operating in us. And so we struggled in our marriage! There were misunderstandings, quarrels, some I feel so ashamed of now. There were businesses we set up and they collapsed miserably. There were days I thought I had made the biggest mistake of my life by marrying him. There were days I wanted to take my life and end it all.
Until I got pregnant with our second child. He felt the call of God upon his life. Me in my usual self, thought it was another prank on me. He went ahead to a Bible College. Graduated succesfully and started The Mawuli International Missions Assignment for Christ.
The Grace of God located me years after. Our marriage almost ended. That experience, after he got born again and became a Pastor, inspired me to write the book , ''The Lady in the Lead'' which will be launched in October 2020.
We moved to a totally different city, to start all over again. It got worse. We went into more lose; Spiritual, emotional, physical... We got seperated.
Reunited a year after; the Lord visited me again. Since then, My marriage took a turn around for the good.
Remember I said he has grown even more beautiful? Indeed he has! He grew in the wisdom of Christ and Glory of God.
I descovered the secret to being the wife I needed to be, to allow him also be the husband God created him to be. My respect for him has grown immensely
