One of the most challenging decisions in life is deciding to wait for anything you desperately need. 

In some cases, there are no shortcuts to getting what we need so we just have to wait till whenever it gets to our turn. But in other cases there could be an alternative means to getting it faster.

These alternatives are sometimes  not morally acceptable but impatient people still go for it since it takes them to their desired destination.      

Some of the things one could wait for in life are; success, promotion, marriage, children, good job, health, miracle, etc. The devil loves it when we are in waiting period, so he could come and give us counterfeit alternatives which when we accept, it could end up ruining our lives and relationship with God.

Today,  I will like to share the story of a young woman named Jessica who ruined her marriage due to impatience.

Jessica was fortunate to be married to a cute and loving husband, named Fred. They both got married immediately she graduated from the university. The joy of the marriage was intact not until after two years of no child bearing. Suddenly people started gossiping and questions started rolling in.

Although Fred wasn’t bothered but his wife became excessively  worried about their inability to have a child. She ran series of tests and was told her womb was perfectly okay.  While she was busy worrying over becoming a mother, the devil came and gave her an idea.

During her school days she dated one playboy called Charles. Although she loved him, she had left him to marry her husband when she realized he wasn’t a husband material. Two years after her marriage she decided to call him.

“Hello! It’s me Jessica” She said

“Jessica? Sorry I don’t remember u “ He replied from the other end

“The Jessica you dated in school, have you forgotten her so soon?”

“ Is it the one that got married some years back?” He asked

“Exactly! So how are you doing?’  She asked

They both discussed for a long period  then booked to meet up that weekend. When it was weekend, she lied to her husband that she was going for a church retreat to pray and fast for God’s blessings. 

Her husband permitted her then off she went to see her ex-lover. It was a fun and sex filled weekend for her so when it was Sunday she felt like not going back home but she just had to.

One month down the lane, she was pregnant. Yea! Pregnant with her ex lover’s child. She rushed to her husband and broke the news and he was so happy thinking he was going to be a father. 

Nine months came and she went into the labor ward with high hopes of seeing her baby later on. Unfortunately her baby was still born. When she was told that her baby died, she cried and felt like she had actually returned to her starting point. She felt life had punished her for cheating then she vowed never to try it again.

A year later, she missed her period. It was a big surprise to know that she finally got pregnant for her husband. Everyone rejoiced and they started preparing for the baby’s arrival.

On one of her ante natal days, she ran a test for HIV and tested positive. She was shocked to see the result because the last screening she did during her wedding preparation, was negative. Her husband was called for screening and he also tested positive.
