God's Favourite Weirdo🙃

[Deborah Ocheido @d_ocheido]

Yes I’ll admit

That post about Caesarian section triggered me

Because I’m a woman who was in labour for 40 hours

I was given the maximum dose of oxytocin three times to induce labour and did not dilate beyond 2cm

I was so mentally prepared to push out a human but my body just wouldn’t

Which one should I talk about?

The intense pain ripping through me every few minutes?

Should I talk about how excruciating it is to have doctors check you for dilation while you’re actively in labour?

Should I talk about the exhaustion?
Should I talk about how that when those who have vaginal delivery have long forgotten CS moms are still grappling with wounds and pain and numbness and tingling from the anaesthetsia?

I had my baby in Canada and the nurses kept asking me if I wanted a pain relief

I did not want any drug to interfere

I was ready to bear the pain and I did

I think I have the most supportive husband in the world. He stood there every second with me. Holding my hand. Wincing as Pain coursed through me

But he did not feel the pain. Not the physical one.

I did.

So has every woman who has gone through this

When the doctors saw that my contractions were not the “good type”, they said I could get a uterine rupture, I had to be taken for a CS.

And everyday I’m grateful to God for the miracle of a CS

That a mother who has given her all can still have her baby and they both be fine

So sir, when you have had contractions for 40 hours

When you have had 7 layers of your body sliced open so you can bring forth children

When you have gone months nursing a wound that is layers deep
When you’ve been placed on a cold surgical table and cut 7 layers deep
For some 4 times.
Then come back and have this Conversation with me

Thank God for your mother and the long line of women in your family that had vaginal deliveries.
But no two women are the same.
Don’t put that burden on the woman you would marry.

A CS is not a shortcut

A CS does not make a woman weak

A CS does not happen because you did not pray enough or you’re unlucky

A CS is a medical miracle so that women like me especially pre term moms, can come out alive from the mystery that is pregnancy and childbirth

Blessings.

someone said the only life hack I know is, "father, you said in your word" - and I couldn't agree more.

One thing I struggled with as I landed in Canada was purchasing

Yes, like to buy stuff

My head would not just stop conversion of Dollar to Naira

When I want to buy “sweet” and I see $3 the Nigerian in me would quickly do the math

And I’m like “how can I be licking sweet of 5000 naira?

How can I eat biscuit of 15,000 in one sitting??

On and on it went

It was such a struggle

I had to repeatedly tell myself,

“you’re not in Nigeria and this is not naira you want to spend”

It took a while but my brain switched

And the Holyspirit brought something powerful to my heart

Child of God, can I preach to you today ????
—————————————————-

This happens to a lot of us

When you come into Christ, the Bible tells us that “for He that is in Christ is a new creature, old things are passed away and all things have become new”

Sometimes, our minds have lived in Babylon for too long

And so even after you come to Christ, it doesn’t want to change

You keep doing “conversions”

Your lips still want to talk like the Babylonians

The sounds of Egypt are still ringing in your ears

Your spiritual reality has changed but your mind is stuggling to catch up

And this discourages a lot of people because they are confused at what is happening

That’s why the Bible says “ And be ye Renewed by the transformation of your mind”

The devil is still lying to you and reminding you of your guilt

Evil spirits still want to come and torment you at night

You need the WORD

You need to be loaded and soaked in God’s word

You identity has changed

Your location has changed because you’re now seated with Christ in heavenly places

You need to constantly renew that mind in the word

And tell the devil , my address has changed

I know I was so bad

I know I’ve made mistakes

But Jesus calls me new now and so I’m new in Christ

When the devil wants to shout his lies to you, scream back the truth of Gods word!

Send that devil back to hell!

I remain your Sister in Christ.

After I do laundry, I love to give my washing machine and the dry a good wipe down with disinfectant

Few days ago, I was doing this

Like I was taking my time, wiping and wiping and singing in the Holyghost

I was just feeling myself

When I was done, I decided to turn on the light in the laundry room to inspect my hard work

As I peeped inside the machine, I just saw that all there were still splotches of stain here and there

I was shocked because I took my time to go inch by inch

How come I missed these many spots?

That was when the Holyspirit started lecture

And before you say, “Sister Debbie, how come you were cleaning in the dark”?

Nope, I wasn’t. The light in the corridor was on and so the place was well lit

Or so i thought

The Holyspirit just told me “This is why you should turn on YOUR OWN LIGHT”

The laundry room had its own light but i felt that the corridor light would suffice

So many of us are like this. We love to use other people’s light

We love to hear others share their experiences with God

We love to read others write about what God showed them

And we think being inspired by others is enough

What about your own light?

What is God telling you?

So what happens when the other person’s light goes off?

How will you see?

Other people’s fire should only be ginger for you to light your own

Dear child of God,

TURN ON YOUR OWN LIGHT!

You’ll be amazed about how much spots you have missed.
