[STORY] THE ABOMINATION (Episode 13)

Episode 13.

Kassim had really gone too deep into the ocean of atrocity. For three days we were on spiritual admission in the church. Toyin began to prepare my mind. Nneka, if God forgives him, you must also forgive him. You know we were all once sinners but God forgave us all. You will forgive him so God can forgive you and give you a new life. It was when she said this I remembered I had not confessed my abortion to anybody. The fear of what befell Kassim gripped me. Baba I have a confession to make too?

He tried to excuse those standing by but I told him I don’t mind. I confessed everything evil I have ever done including my affair with Prophet Ade. I became very light after my confession. It was like a big rock was excavated out of my heart. I really wished the trumpet could just sound at that moment. I was so sure of my eternity with Christ.

I reconciled with Kassim but we went through a two week counseling session before I could accept Kassim back again as my husband. Not too long, Kassim’s father died of stroke. His mum followed suit three months later. We left our former church and we started attending Seed of Faith Church, Baba’s church. Kassim didn’t recover fully but he could move about. He lost his job because of his long absence at work. The whole family load and Kassim’s medical expenses were on me. We didn’t resume conjugal activities until after four months due to Kassim’s health and left over fear in me.

We found joy in Christ again. This time, it was a genuine encounter with the most high. In Seed of Faith
Church, no one is allowed to be a bench warmer. You must be in one department or unit in church.
While I joined the choir, Kassim joined the prayer team. We began to pick up gradually both spiritually and financially. The fear of what Kassim said during his confession resurfaced to torment me. That he will die childless. I couldn’t even pray to God for a child because I felt he has done enough for us. But I need a child of my own before I approach menopause. Is child bearing part of our forgiveness package?
Will God extend his Mercy to this aspect of my life? I wished he could just answer all these questions.

Not minding Kassim’s health, I began to take advantage of every moment to meet with him. Not for pleasure but for chances of getting pregnant. We tried for several months with the help of fertility drugs but all to no avail. One year was gone no pregnancy. I erased the thought of conception from my mind and focused on serving God and building my career. At the time I had completely let go trying, I missed my period for the first time after about twelve years. I became pregnant for the man the devil said will die childless. Satan does not have the final verdict over anyone’s life.
God of Abraham and Sarah showed up in our lives and our joy knew no bounds.
