During my NYSC programme in 2006, I served in the fellowship faithfully and waited for everything to work out. At the end of my service year, I prayed to God for a life partner and I had a dream about the person I was serving with. It wasn’t my preferred choice so I rejected it and concluded it was not God’s plan.

A few days later, the young man I dreamt about walked up to me and confirmed the dream to me but I told him to allow me pray. I had been in and out of this other relationships.  We either had parental, church and tribal issues . I wanted to marry so badly but it just wasn’t working.

I constantly prayed while in any relationship that if the person I was involved in was not my husband no matter the tantrums I threw, God should not it work because if a child is crying for fire we can’t give that child because he is crying.
I said God, be a father to me. I told him if it would take me 30 years, he shouldn’t allow me to make a mistake. I kept praying and I kept going in and out of relationships.

On the 31st of December 2009 , God told me it was over and it was my year and I said Lord let it really be over. Then pastor said a word that it was the year that a dog shall not return to its vomit and I received it. On the 31st of December 2010, God told me again that this is the year and it’s time to enter into the new one and I received it.

By February I started praying again and God said to me “ I am not a man that I should lie or the son of man to change my mind. I have said what I have said and if you don’t want to take………
I continued praying and I attended the last Discovery for women rally where someone gave a testimony that someone had been in love with her for 5 years and that the scale just fell off her eyes. When I heard that I counted since 2006 .

As Pastor started ministering, he started emphasizing on “how do you see”? I guess that was my major issue, I refused to see. I then asked God to help me to see properly.

When I got home, I asked God to give me another dream just to confirm. Lo and behold, I had another dream where my husband-to-be’s mum told me to come home that they have accepted me. I will be getting married in November.
