(At a table in a candle-lit restaurant, a man and woman having dinner)
Man: Baby, I love you, would you please marry me?
Woman: (stands up and lands a stinging slap on his face)
I have waited more than 9yrs, I have prayed, fasted, sowed seeds, bought books and listened to tapes, even went out of my way to be nice to every male specie of marriageable age!
I took up new hobbies, watching football and play station. I went to Daystar, from Daystar, I went to House on the Rock, from House on the rock I went to Guiding Light Assembly, from there i went to This Present Winners looking every where for you l went from a size 14 to asize 10, so that when you see me you'd love what you see.
I left Lagos, went to Abuja, from Abuja I went to Port-Harcourt, then I went all the way to Kano I joined hi-five, from hi-five to faceboook, then I went to twitter, I even had a blog on which I ranted, hoping you would show up! for where?
I uploaded only my best pictures on Facebook, infact I took photo sessions to look my best, all for you o! I attended all the weddings, whether the invitation was direct or indirect!
The next place I was hoping to check was the moon, before you crawled out, crawled out from the house directly next to mine! So it was you all this while?
The neighbour I said hello to every morning?
Were you trying to destroy my faith? You almost rendered my prayer life useless? What were you waiting for? What sign where you looking for? Do you want to kill me before you reveal yourself?!!! Now be a gentleman, get down on your knees and put that ring on my finger!!
Moral of the story:
1. You are in God's plan
2. There is a set time for your glory and marital joy
3. What you are looking for might just be sitting close to you..may be your old friend or neighbor who knows.
4. Just be yourself and wait on God still
5. Don't slap the brother when he finally comes
6. Don't jump at the proposal, please seek the face of God in prayers, consult your spiritual parents if need be, patiently examine him and allow God to lead you.
I pray for all the singles; you are born again, fervently serving the Lord, living Godly and reflecting Christ but you have waited so long and your faith is shrinking, God will clear the way for your marital breakthrough in the name of Jesus.
