He did it for me in my new church and all the barriers was removed.

I can’t count them, but none of the pieces of advice really scared me. Except seeing my younger ones getting married on time. While I was waiting almost wasting away.
Do You Have Stories Of Relationship That Didn’t Work Out?
No I did not in any point in time have any date before i eventually got married. I lived a decent life throughout my school days. I didn’t have any relationship before. I accepted Christ very early and when i was still a student. I didn’t even give any thought to it as I knew I was not ready then.

How Did You Meet Your Husband And What Attracted Him To You?
God has been revealing his pictures and personality to me and speaking to me about him through some people for over three years. Exactly on the day it reached three years that I first got the revelation, God sent the message again through a prophet. The description of his looks where he would come from and others matched perfectly when i set my eyes on him in Ilesa. My church is in Osogbo but we had an event in Ilesa where i met the man destained for me.
God also revealed our wedding date which was October 29 2021. The period between our meeting and wedding was really short. I give God the glory for remembering me after all these years.
