@twitgameboy Didn’t God eventually do it? Aren’t you actually living my best life yet now?
Beyond proud of myself and how everything turned out so beautifully for me, I’m so living in my answered prayers right now 🙏
THE REALITY OF A NIGERIAN SOLDIER IN THE CORRIDOR OF TERRORISM.
That night was the first time I had seen my wife break down since we got married. After the quarterly rotation, I had just been sent to combat insurgency in the north. Seeing her break down in tears broke my heart, but still, nothing could be done; it was what I had signed up for - to defend the motherland or die trying. With comforting words, I told her, "Everything will be fine; I'm not going there to die. I'll come back just as I left, without a mark," just to cheer her up. She became calm at last after my soothing and reassuring words. That night, she couldn't sleep; she kept looking at me from time to time. I could hear her praying in a hushed voice, "Dear God, I'm too young to be a widow. I can't bear the burden of these kids alone. I don't want to be a laughing stock. Please bring him back alive for me and my kids."
