I have been writing this story for the longest time. Every time I start I feel discouraged and I quit even before I start but today I choose not to listen to those voices of discouragement and just do it.
This is my story....
" I was just eighteen, young single and sexy, having a party was the greatest thing on my mind, that's when I met him tall, handsome and lonely" this song by Wahu describes perfectly the beginning of my story.
He was tall and handsome about being lonely am not quiet sure. But he could make a girl laugh. He was charming and knew the right words to say to sweep you off your feet. I was in love, the first serious relationship after Highschool. He was waaay older than me so it felt special " throw caution to the wind and run away together kind of special" Hahaha.
We dated for six months before I joined University and our relationship started getting complicated and we took a break. When in college, I met someone else but my heart was still with this guy. So when he asked me to meet with him in town, I was the happiest girl.
We went out had fun and I went back to school. This continued for quite a while but we both were seeing other people. On this cold November morning, while my friends were going to class, I was going to meet him.
On this morning, something seemed different but I couldn't place a finger on it. I alighted at deepwest and on trying to reach him, I realised that there was no cellular service. I stood there for 10 minutes trying to decide what to do.
I remember telling God that no matter what I would see him and I was not leaving there without meeting Him. I stood there for another 10 then I saw Him coming down the stairs and I called him.
We met up and and went to the house. We had our fun and he had to leave for work and I went back to school. We spoke again in December when I called him to tell him that something was wrong. My periods were late and they never are.
He hung up and called back 2 hrs later,
"Are you sure" he asked
"Of course am sure "
" Now what do we do? "
I told him whatever he decided would be okay with me and He hung up.
When I sit down and think about it now, I realise how God was in every detail in this story. Even when I was not paying attention to His prompting. As I continue to share this story, we will see how many times God came in to try and prevent some stuff and also to reassure me on some decisions I had to make.
Let me stop there for now. I look forward to sharing more as the days go by.
Stay blessed.
Karimi.
