There was a day my Dad called me for a conversation. When I walked into his room, he looked at me and said, “Where is your wife? You are both one. She should be a part of all I am telling you now.” He understands the power of becoming one in marriage. My father-in-law also treated me this way when […]
In my days in the secondary school, we had what we called “Morning Duty”. For the male students, it was mostly cutting grass. A prefect would assign portions. When you come, you will see those who did theirs and those who did not. You will see neatly cut portions among tall grasses. On the day of reckoning, the question will […]
Some interesting things happened when we first got married: First, we discovered that we loved different forms of mattresses. Irewamiri would wake up and complain about backaches while I slept soundly. When we changed our mattress, I started to experience back pain. We eventually figured it out. Second, I would sleep with the lights on. She prefers it off. Now, […]
When crisis hit the marriage, their spiritual parents stepped in to salvage the situation. The woman’s response was the death knell that marriage needed. She said to them, “Dad and Mum, I honour you both deeply and hold you in high regard. You know I would always do all I can to honour and obey you. If this were some […]
She had packed her bags and was heading out to the office. She had the intention of dealing with her husband a little bit. She was offended. As she stepped out, the Holy Spirit asked her, “Are you fighting your husband?” She responded in the affirmative. Then the Lord spoke, “Did you say I am the one living in you? […]
During their courtship season, he said to his fiancée, “In this marriage, I will not have an opinion, and you will not have an opinion; we go with what the Word of the Lord says. If it cannot be found and justified in the Word, we will not do it”. They have an amazing marriage that has run for over […]
A couple were going through a tough season. It led to a drastic drop in their sexual intimacy. The frustrated husband looked at his wife one day and said, “Hope you know that there are other women outside”. What a threat. Another woman who felt unappreciated by her husband also said, “I am sorry, but he should know that there […]
At a wedding some years back, as the exchange of vows was going on, it got to a portion where the groom seemed to mumble the words through. The presiding minister immediately scolded him and asked him to repeat the vows properly. He struggled through, but he eventually did. He must have known the weight of the words that he […]
We were visiting with some of our friends some years ago. The husband humorously said, “Please, tell my wife to remove her ring”. We looked towards the wife while she struggled to pull the ring out. Apparently, she added weight in pregnancy that made the wedding ring tighter in our hands. The husband started laughing. He then went ahead to […]
We wanted to move to a new house. When we eventually got home, it was standing alone somewhere in a developing area. Our next neighbour was some distance away. I did not like the place, but my wife said she was great with it. Since we were in the same city, my parents visited the house and shared my feelings. […]
