RING DAY….#ISaidYes
JJ
Its Wednesday 10-02-2016 and as usual I go to work and always look forward to
go home early so that I can freshen up and join my safari group bible study
members at the Loresho springs Estate. So
this particular day I am not able to leave the office early because a very good
friend wants my assistance of a charger since we share the same chargers which
are very rare in the office…yes we use a very mean kind of a phone which you
cant just borrow a charger from anyone. So I spend like an hour or so charging
my friends phone so that I can go home. As I wait for the phone to charge i get
a call from a very close friend actually a friend who has become a sister and
she tells me that she is near our office meeting a client and she asks me if we
can go home together…I said yes. So the
time to go home comes and off we go and as a tradition in Nairobi the traffic
jam starts to build up at around 4 but we are little bit lucky because our
route is not very bad when it comes to traffic jam but that particular day
there was a lot of traffic jam. A tree fell across the road killing 14 people
in a Nissan matatu. This caused a lot of traffic which made us spend almost one
hour and half to get home. My friend-sister is my neighbor and we go to
the same bible study. We got home and
went separate ways but she told me not to get late for the bible study.
I got home and I started having many ideas of food J and I couldn’t make a
decision of what to prepare for dinner but eventually I settled on a particular
meal. Too many details by the way….my point and focus was bible study but at
this time I had decided not go coz I just wanted to stay at home and
watch a movie. Talk of having misplaced priorities and I am the worship leader of
our Bible study. So I pick up my phone to text BS members to say that I wont
make it but hey who is calling! Our BS group leader huh. Any
way I talk to him and he asks me to go coz they were waiting for me to lead the
worship. The spirit of God quickens and
tells me my daughter my people are waiting for you to lead worship…they need
your ministry.
All these time I did
not even suspect anything…now here is the real story hahaha they (Mr.man, some
of my friends and BS group members) had a plan which I had no clue about.
The study was about ‘discerning Gods open doors’ which took
us two hours to complete i.e from 7-9pm. In those two hours my friends were
locked up in one of the hosts bedroom and mr man had decided to give the ring
and I wasn’t aware, so he had called my friends to help him surprise me with the
proposal.

| My friend Faith trying to help me stop hiding So at the end of the study we prayed and the guy who was asked to pray took his good time but as we prayed I could hear some commotions which were unnecessary. Thank God I did not open my eyes coz I was really in the spirit praying in agreement with the person leading the prayers. Upon saying Amen…I heard a very strong and lovely voice of the man that I love so much, I man who I had tried contacting during the day but he was not answering me, the man who God saw it right in His eyes to give me as the Truest gift, I heard him and I saw him…I was lost for words and I knew that my guy has come to ask the big question. I wanted to run away but I couldn’t though I found myself hiding behind a sofa pillow. His voice was so strong and it kept coming towards where I was hiding. I gained some courage and I was able to face him though I was still blushing a lot.   |
Down on his one knee he went and he asked me if I would marry Him and after few minutes of blushing I said YES to my best friend, to my
prayer partner, to my devotions partner, travelling partner, to the most
handsome and loving man on planet earth David Wafula J. I got the engagement ring
and fellow brethren prayed for us and wished us the best in our life. For once people surprised me. That was an
answered prayer because I'm rarely surprised. I now have a ring which I thank
God for and getting prepared to become a future Mrs.

| Future Mrs :-) |
 |
| With this ring, may i honour God in all my ways |
The Lord has been good to me and to Him be the Honor and
Glory. With this ring that I have, I will honor Him and bring Glory to Him
alone because its all about Him. I cant wait to see what is in store for us (JAVID
meaning Jacque and David) because its
soo clear that He has brought us together for an assignment which I can only
pray that the Lord prepares us well enough as we go the ends of the earth to
represent His kingdom. 1 Corinthians 2:9 "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man,the things which God has prepared for those who love Him" My prayer is that
through us, people will be influenced to the knowledge of God and impacted for
His glory and Honor. AmenMy dear brothers and sisters, if you are waiting on God for a spouse, do not get tired, keep on praying and as you wait on Him to bring that special person your way, serve Him delightfully. Matthew 6:33 says that we should seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other things shall be added unto us. He is the one who puts all desires in our hearts and He will always give unto us those desires if we trust in Him. Psalms 37:4. May the Lord continue blessing you as you wait on Him because i know very well that He will make all things beautiful in His time. bless you
