Chronicle Of Blog Visitor Narrative...

Hmmmm......









STAND ALONE NARRATIVE

IF I KNEW BACK THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW...


Hello Stella of life,

Your Boredom eliminating post on advising a younger sister if one had to pushed me to send in my life's story. I once sent a testimony to you, but here is my life at a glance.


I come from a family of 7:2 boys and 3 girls. I happen to be the last girl and the boys came after me. My father is a well known public figure who prefers to be good to outsiders, more than he is to his wife and children.

My secondary school days were hell, as I had to work in people's farms to be able to transport myself to school, even when I was taking my SSCE. To my father, the moment you managed to finish SSCE, you were on your own, whether you made it or not, he did not care.


In my own case, my result was ceased and I had no option other than to start the business of selling OK(fairly used clothes) with my meagre savings. No need asking about my mum, her case is a story for another day. From my business I was able to buy a GCE form, without my dad's support, and I made my papers, excluding English where I had only a pass.


 I asked my dad to sponsor my university education but he refused and was adamant about it. He was a manager in a federal establishment and a graduate, but he allowed another married woman and her husband to use their jazz on him to forsake his family, while he was training theirs. I resigned myself to fate and started part-time studies in a polytechnic. My siblings all stopped at SS3 after WAEC and he did not care.


When it was time for my IT,I stayed with my elder sister, who was married by then. Here, I encountered another challenge; her husband raped me. I could not tell my sister for fear of breaking her home, knowing where we were coming from. I left her place and went back home without completing my IT or giving her a reason for leaving.

I enrolled for my HND and was still struggling with my business to make ends meet.I graduated with a lower credit.


My elder sister now called that since I had managed to finish school, that I should come and stay with her so that they could help me secure a job. Meanwhile, my father was offering jobs to people on a platter of gold, but cared less about his children. I obliged and moved to her base, believing it had been years and that that animal of a husband of hers had repented. 


Yes, he secured a job for me but barely 6 months of living with them, he came again and I asked him a question: "If your brother was doing this with your wife, would you be happy?". He told me it is a normal thing and that many have been doing it. At this point, I knew I had to move again, I confided in my sister's best friend who told me to move without telling my sister, so as to leave the marriage intact. I did not inform my sister of my moving out till I was able to find my own house and furnish it. 


The day I wanted to pack out, I told my mum and dad and they were surprised. I bought a carton of wine on the eve of my moving out and presented it to my sister and her hubby, to appreciate them for helping me secure a job. He rejected the drinks and my sister was crying, that seeing her present condition(as she was heavily pregnant),why have I decided to move at that time. I offered to come and take her children every weekend, as I was comfortable by then, but her hubby refused. I moved without looking back and switched jobs, before he comes to frustrate me, so he became powerless over me.


Please bear with me for my long story. It is for you to understand where I am coming from.

On my marriage, which has brought about the story of my life, which I have to cut short because it is not worth remembering. I am actually married to a pastor, who was not a pastor prior to our marriage. I first met him,7years before our marriage, when he told me that God told him that I was his wife. I laughed it off and went my way. When the disturbances became too much, I took my then man-friend and introduced to him and his word to us that day were:" Be careful of God's anger, the woman you are dating is my wife".
I had forgotten all about him till fate brought us together again, after 7 years.


I had become so comfortable that I owned a car, had traveled to a few African countries, sent our last baby abroad and was caring for my aged foolish dad(which his puppet-my mum forced me to do) and even built him a house, just for the sake of my mum and two brothers. My immediate elder sister's life is a mess till today, all thanks to our dad.




The journey of my life makes me a loner, as I have never opened up to anyone to this extent. The few friends I managed to have, especially ladies, became my worst enemies. I never knew they were friends from hell. I bottle up a lot, till date.


Back to my marriage story, I survived an accident and went to church for thanksgiving. I never invited this my husband, as I neither had his contact nor even knew his name, but someone I invited sent him as his representative.
On that day,a prophecy came about him, he was the first to be ministered to and that was how I knew he came. I was surprised to see him but cared less as he was not on my guests' list. After service, I entertained my guests and church members and left for the day. I was in my office when the pastor called to see me, I told him I will come when I was less busy. On getting to the pastor's office, I was told a message came for me that 'God said I rejected his Son 7yrs ago that it is now my turn to look for him'. I was surprised and was asked to go pray that God should speak to me .......Stella, the story plenty.


Here we are, I am married to a brother turned pastor with a genuine call, but poor. I practically run the family alone, I bought him the car he drives, I fund the ministry that gives people their testimonies and they disappear. When I complain about this, he tells me that the people he will use to bless the ministry have not come.


I was running my home and that of my immediate younger brother plus my mum all alone without any help. I lost my son and lost my mum exactly one year after my son's demise, before my rainbow baby came in 2019 at age 43 and I am currently 24weeks gone at 45.I have never taken any fertility drugs all my life, that is why I know God is faithful. Yes, I married a poor man who is too good and faithful to his God and me. I contemplated divorce on many occasions because of the load on me, but the word of God I know held me back. My finances are grounded because I was unable to save due to family burden before the travel industry was hit by coronavirus from 2020 till date.


If I knew a way now that one could ask for a second chance, I doubt if I would marry him.


To that advice on the BEP, if I had a younger sister, I would advice her to:
1. NEVER marry below her status.
2. Marry a Godly man but try to know what chased/pursued him to God.
3. Look for a man that can hold his circle tight and, above all, a man that fears God and not the one that loves God.




Hmmmmm Marry a man that fears God and not one that loves God? WOW!

One can ask God for a second chance from his will? Thank you for this interesting Narrative...

    1. Maybe it's your cross
      Maybe you are blessed to take care of your hubby while he does the work of God.
      But the bible makes me believe if God truly called you, he sends help and makes you rich...so this your hubbys own i don't understand, dint he go to school?

      I don't like when church's tell people things like, this is your hubby or God is angry with this or that.
      Please don't marry below your educational, class and financial standard o that thing can be frustrating.

  2. This is exactly the story of someone I know a relative, pastor pastor up and down, the wife has been carrying the load of the house more than 10years now with kids... Very lazy and full of pride..

    There's a difference between a man that lost his job in-between the marriage and one who is into the ministry full time allowing the wife carrying all the load alone.. it's well.. indi God says you're my wife, pastor Siri this and that, Una no go see me!!

    2. I guess she meant to say marry a man that loves and fears God as well.
      Most people claim to love God, but still outrightly go the wrong way. One who fears God will not disregard Him and sin outrightly.
      But the truth is, they both go hand in hand. If you love God, you will respect and revere Him and you will find it difficult to offend Him.

  5. If we understand that there is a spiritual body and there is a natural
    body (1 Cor. 15:44), we will understand this thing that happens to (mostly) men. Same way the natural boy can be kidnapped, is same way the spiritual body can be kidnapped.
    You cannot begin to blame a kidnapped man for not remembering his family; can you?
    The kidnappers of the natural bodies are natural human beings payed by humans. The kidnappers of the spiritual body are spirits, which humans go to mediums to pay to do the job.
    Yes, I had an attempted kidnap when I was engaged to a very fine and faithful girl. Because I knew
    my Lord, Jesus, I knew it was coming and I knew the antidote; the ransom.
    I began to fast and pray the moment I noticed that I was getting uncontrollably fixated about the strange girl that showed up from the blues. My fiancee also joined me to fast. After a week of fasting, the strange girl vanished!
    So, I tell this poster and anyone that is experiencing this. If your spouse or spouse to be is suddenly interested in another person, lady or man. You got to pay the ransom or
    fight for his/her release! That is the way to go. You've got to fast and call upon Jesus. Sulking and hating won't help it.

    Same way that

    1. 15:18, did you read the story or are you just on auto comment?
      She didn’t say her hubby has eyes for a strange woman, infact she actually said he’s faithful to God and to her.
      She only complained that he’s not pulling his weight financially and the burden is too much for her especially since some of her siblings still depend on her.

      If you read the story, you will discover that I was talking about her father, not the husband.
      Her father she said, "allowed herself to be taken by a strange woman"
      So who did not read the story?

      This was your comment. Poster is complaining about her husband and you’re advising her about her father? You said up there that if anyone’s spouse is looking at strange people outside, then they should be prayed for, is the poster’s father her spouse?

      Instead of you to be truthful that you didn’t read properly, you’re trying to defend yourself with a watery argument and yet you’re quoting bible and calling Jesus...SMH

      She complained that her "growing up was hell," her dad did not take care of her and siblings. If you read from the beginning and if you studied psychology like I did, you will know that this is where this lady's problems began.

  7. What does loving God mean in this aspect. Stop with this ignorance
    To love God is to fear him, he has been making a way for your family through you. It is not by might or by power, go and beg God for this horrible mindset.

  8. I also married a man, who is from a wealthy family but chose to have nothing to do with his family's wealth.
    He wanted not to be controlled by them so that he will be able to fulfill
    his calling from God. That is a man I desired, a man that has his own mind.
    You can describe him as "poor" but he is very rich in Christ. For a man's wealth does not depend on the abundance of his possessions. Wealth can be deceitful. "I" footed more than 80% of the wedding cost. I put "I" in quote because, we had a common finance as well as everything else.
    I am the only one earning presently and I don't complain. I love doing it. I love my husband and kids and will do everything to keep supporting them from the means God has given us.
    If we understand that every good and perfect gift comes from God, we won't be chanting all these "my money, his money." Our attitude to life will be, "thank you Lord for the money you gave to this blessed family through me". When I saw beautiful projects he did while at home, I urged him to have us sponsor it, not necessarily to earn but to give him a sense of fulfilment in his labor.
    You can choose in life to be happy or to be sad. I am more than happy I married him, I have joy in my marriage, he gives me peace.

    1. Mummy G.O. Any man of God that lets you pay for 80 percent of a wedding and also makes you the bread winner of HIS home is a very lazy man. Let him put ministry aside and go and hustle. Lazy men hiding under the canopy of religion. Did your Bible not tell you the man is the head of the Home? Continue deceiving yourselves.

Once someone comes close to me and says, God said I should tell you that, I usually pick race before that sentence is completed. I don't believe in such. I live my life with no stress. I believe the human brain is effective enough to know a good decision and a bad one. The mistakes we make is we tend to ignore the signs we see.

    1. some women dont pray to be blessed financially, they are only happy if it is a man that is giving them the money but some also dont mind being the rich partner but they expect the man to so his part as the head which is okay, a man should go out and work and earn a living to support his family else he will be called an infidel.

    2. I think the issue is that the poster's love language is that she should be taken care of. That need is not being met or fulfilled in her life, which leaves her aching for more. Maybe she has to learn to accept the man as is and maybe try to dwell on his good sides.

    3. The poster deserves to be taken care of
      She has been a provider all her life, when would she rest biko?

      Did the poster tell us that she is not being taken care of?
      When you tell me that your husband is "a good man," I don't know what else you desire.

      half empty instead of half full.

    1. I am guessing she means that it is okay for a man to be godly but not to the point that he forsakes or upholds his faith above his family and home. This is arguable because I think total devotion to God is what the ideal is. However I know many pastor's wives who are very unhappy and unsatisfied in their marriages, for some dissatisfaction even extends to their kids. I think with wisdom and God's help a balance can be found.

  27. your story is all over the place. except if you can explain more I dont understand what you mean by marry a man who fears God but not love God. the love you have for God makes you fear and reverence him, so you cannot fear God without loving him. very wrong teaching in my opinion.. a genuine man of God will provide for his family. so if you claim he is a genuine man of God then something must be wrong somewhere. it is either he is not truly born again or he is born again but under the bondage of the spirit of poverty. he needs deliverance. as for you poster you need to genuinely go back to God in prayer to open your spiritual eyes. if God put you in his life as a support for a season then you best need to keep filling that role till God makes a way of escape. ask God why he is still not a provider for the home because that is an anomaly, more so for a believer who is the head of the home. can you be the head of the home and your wife be breadwinner for how many years? may God give you wisdom

No God sent that man to you,that's how i was a maid of honor in a childhood friend's wedding,i went from school looking so flashy and sophisticated,one dry pastor came to greet us after the wedding,the next thing he started calling that he wants to marry me,i have zero chills i told him straight to carry himself somewhere else that I don't do pastors.If you watch most of them nawadays,they'll marry very beautiful classy babes and pretend that it's God's message.Liars everywhere.Ladies better open your eyes and look well.Please don't marry a poor lazy man except you're really capable to submit without complains.

  29. the pastor just saw a comfortable woman and perched there. you poster was not a serious Christian so could not decipher he just came to chop. so he is waiting for the people God will use to bless the ministry okwaya? God does not work that way. you find your hands something to do and God will bless it. you do not know how or who or what he will use, so he is just being lazy. being the head of the home means you provide for the family, if your wife earns more then as a good wife she will support you and take care of majority of the bills. but for her to be the sole provider is an anomaly. except if she is not telling us the whole truth sha

    1. When he told her God told him she is his wife, she should have prayed and asked God to reveal it to her too. Anyone can come up to you and say God said.

    2. @Baby Oku, you said and I quote " so he is waiting for the people God will use to bless the ministry, okwaya? God does not work that way." My question for you is how many Nigerian pastors do you know who have day jobs? Don't tell me they have businesses. How many of them had businesses before they became pastors?

    3. Anon, a bunch of pastors have jobs. It's probably the lazy ones or the ones that their churches have grown relatively big that don't. My pastor in Nigeria was a Lagos state model college principal before he retired. My pastor here has a good job at the Embassy

  30. Why is that when we read or hear stories about God directing people to their spouses, it is almost always one-sided?! Why didn't God tell both parties, involved?

    Whilst reading your post, I noticed he was the only one to receive such a "message", but it didn't seem like you got your own message! That tells me that it was not ordained from the Lord, but rather from human beings!

    1. This here is no word for me. How can you fear someone you don't love, In general we fear God because we love Him.

      Here we go, there are a few things we can do to disobey our parents and disrespect them, but to some extent we try not to do that, not because we can't but for the we love them and not want to get them offended. That is not only love but fear hidden in it as well.

  32. Your chronicle took me down memory lane. Like you I was married to a 'pastor' for more than 10 years and handled all the financial obligations of the home( including his allowance etc). I gradually turned into a living caricature of what a woman should be. Putting up a front that all is well but dying slowly inside. I took a walk when I realised I had become bitter and resentful, and lost my smile and joy in the process. It took a while but I have regained my smile and cheerful nature. It is a learning curve and my takeaway from the experience is that 'takers' have no limits, and will not stop until they suck the life out of 'givers'.

    This type of marriage changes a woman and you start behaving like superwoman until you have a breakdown. It is a process but I am learning to be soft again and to open up to love. I am learning that it is okay to be pampered and treated like a queen.That real men protect , provide and do everything to put a smile on the face of the ones they love.I had to learn to receive from the man I am dating now because I was so used to being a beast of burden.

    Some men use Christianity as a cloak for laziness and prey on hardworking, naive Christian girls. To the men in the house: if you find a woman who fears God, respects you, is financially secure , gives unreservedly (love and resources),don't take her for granted. That she is easygoing is no excuse to exploit her. When she reaches her breaking point, no amount of begging or cajoling will make her stay. What you handle so carelessly, others are waiting to treasure. Selah

    2. Thank you o. Please tell that mummy G.O anonymous that claims she can buy a street up there. Some men are users. Some women are actually slow and stupid all in the name of being Christian. I hate lazy people. If I as a woman can hustle as much as I do everyday, no husband of mine will sit his butt at home claiming pastor. Make everybody enter street go look for money.

    3. You ended up not telling us how you were "exploited," or did you?
      Jesus himself taught that it is more blessed to give than to receive Acts 20:35
      If you were always trying to receive, then you were going contrary to his teachings
      and being selfish. Whatever you had was given to you by God and not of your own making.
      You ended up scattering your marriage. Hope the one you embark upon brings you the riches
      you seek.

    4. Read carefully what Anony 17:23 said. I will quote it here "To the men in the house: if you find a woman who fears God, respects you, is financially secure , gives unreservedly (love and resources),don't take her for granted." The defining word in this quote is "DON'T TAKE HER FOR GRANTED." Both commenters below Anon 17:23, probably skipped this line or willfully ignored it.

    5. @21:04
      Both the poster and this anon did not tell us that their husbands 'takes them for granted"
      The poster actually said that her husband is "a good man." She is actually more interested in riches
      than a happy marriage. A woman married to a good man, had a child in advanced age and is "24 weeks gone
      with another?" Isn't she the one taking the blessings of God for granted?

    6. I am the anon at 17:23. Pray you never walk in the shoes of a woman who bears the sole responsibility of catering for the family. When a man decides not to work and leaves you to bear the family responsibilities (including his personal expenses)for more than a decade, then the man is taking your good heart for granted. When he is not incapacitated in any way, do you call that love? Have you ever been afflicted by stress-induced ailments? I would rather leave such a marriage and regain my health and peace, than cling tenaciously to the title "Mrs". A marriage where you wither away from overworking while the man goes about doing nothing and getting fresher by the day is not worth it.I choose life. Marriage is not a ticket to heaven. Na husband I marry, no be babysitter job I apply for! Everything cannot be said in a single write-up. Before a woman quits a marriage of over 10 years,you should know there are cogent reasons for doing so.

      If you read my write-up carefully, you will deduce that by the grace of God I am financially okay and do not need to date a man for money. But it sure feels good to be with a man who knows that a man has responsibilities in a committed relationship.To each his own.

  33. @poster you are a strong woman. I am currently in your situation anf yes I know how lonely it can get at times. It seems you are always strong for everyone but yet when you need a shoulder you can't vouch for anyone around you.
    All i can tell you is that God's grace is sufficient for you.
    Trust me I know it's not easy but your greatest strength is your personla relationship with God. He would comfort you in rare ways.zero your expectations from those around you and be strong for you and those who really matter.

  34. I have been married to a Pastor for 7years. At the time of the marriage it was a huge miracle. Age difference over 5years (i am older) now I'm just tired of carrying the huge burden of the house. I'm actually thankful there are no children. All these Pastors eh! Hmmm abeg dear sisters check well before you jump into marriage with any so called Pastor. My story is too long.

    3. Anony 18:57, that's a very good question. She said it was a huge miracle at that time, that's because she was older than her husband and probably thought he was doing her a favour. Also, she is thankful that there are no children. If she doesn't plan to leave the marriage anytime soon, why is she happy there are no children. Who's time is been wasted? It's obviously her. Then if she has plans to leave the marriage, why is still holding on to it if it isn't in any way beneficial to her?

    That's how the charismatic one I married with my money was telling me he can be holy but hateful. My jaw dropped.
    The day he shared this his whacko theory with his neighbours, they ripped him to shreds.
    I have left him and moved on with my life, the divorce process is in the works and I am thriving again, to the glory of God.

  40. Hello Poster, I think that we all need to know God for ourselves. what this means is that God will confirm the message He has given you and not just give someone a message for you. This is not how it works and the message should give you peace.

    That said, the most important thing about a person is his character be it a pastor, chior director a bsuinessman or whomever and be true to yourself concerning what you can live with.

    The Bible has guidelines for marriage as well. Love God,love your wife as Christ loved the Church and gave His life for it. This involes taking care of your family and your home. Of course a wife should do her share of respect and contribution to the home front as well.

    It is well with you. I Pray it all turns out well and your husband gets how you feel and understands his place in the homefront. God loves you.
