George had broken our marital vow. It all started at a staff meeting and then grew to dating which his boss claimed to be casual friendship and mere dates.
On one particular Saturday morning, she came to the office and pleaded with him to help her fix up something in her apartment as she wanted to collect some thing she forgot.
She claimed she didn’t want to bother him after work or spend money on such a little task and so they went together. She was his boss by the way right? Hmmmm
After fixing the appliance of course it was done in few minutes,and then from compliment of the house to the compliment of the hair and body and then the unimaginable happened. They went to bed together!
It was a horror story to me as I shouted, screamed, cried and I opened my eyes to look at him again and be sure it was not my imagination, I saw a spiritual giant that has been crashed.
A man of God that was lifelessly dead in the Spirit.
Just then, the great 10 year old question was called back to my memory “honey, can you wake me up if i die?”
With an understanding that came to me, I muttered “yes” as a reply. We cried together for hours and we continued later in the mid night because we had to cover up things for the kids.
By the help of God, we started building again and God began to heal us together till I was able to wake him up from the dead.
Marriage is a very sweet relationship when you are married to your friend or the right person meant for you.
But there a question couples need to ask themselves. That is, “honey, can you wake me up if I die?”
You may meet me very successful in Business, but a day may come and the business is dead, can you wake me up?
I maybe on fire as a sister now, but after having 3 children with so many responsibilities i may be growing cold spiritually, can you wake me up?
It may not be as a result of infidelity, it may an unguarded hour,it may be family matters, whichever it is that left me dead, can you wake me up? Think about it!!
We are meant for each other, so let’s fight for each other together..
As the Lord helps us, we can arise together again!
