woman in labour pains
A woman experiencing labor pains anticipates the full manifestation of delivery signs before deciding to proceed to a clinic. If she leaves too soon, she may face a longer wait at the reception and incur a higher bill. Conversely, if she waits too long, she risks giving birth en-route, possibly in a taxi. Just-in-time -JIT, delivery is good.
In our Christian walk of faith, we need blessings that come at the right time. A right husband or wife at the time, a right job at the right time or a visa at the right time, a scholarship at the right time. The one who gives blessings he gives to whomsoever he wills (Romans 9:18) at the appropriate time he deems fit.
The idea of launching a Ministry never found me ready; it resembled a woman experiencing labor pains. Regardless of her desires, she cannot simply wish the pain away. The discomfort continues until she gives birth.
I experienced significant internal turmoil prior to the birth of the Ministry. The anguish was immense. Countless nights were spent in sleeplessness, uncertain of the appropriate course of action. Although I was aware that something was not right, I could not identify the source of my distress. My spirit was troubled, yet no one understood the struggles I faced—akin to labor pains! The phase of desolation caused me great sorrow. I found myself losing friends and my passion for the essence of life. Eventually, I became increasingly isolated.
It was not long before I began to pray. I hungered for God. Sought Him. I reflected on my life's purpose. Although I did not receive immediate answers to my situation, I experienced an inexplicable sense of comfort from expressing my feelings to Him.
I could sense His presence each time I went into my closet to release my sorrow. Prayer became my source of strength and comfort. I began to depend on it as if I were an addict .
It would not be long before he spoke... He spoke in 2016
