GOD MAKES A WAY WHERE THERE SEEMS TO BE NO WAY!
By Jerome Yaovi Onipede

Lawrenta and I believed we were meant for each other, but not everyone bought that idea until the idea became reality. We got married at 22 and 21 years, afterwards, we were told we would not last, and we agreed with them, because of the circumstances that surrounded us. So we made God the most important PERSON in our Marriage because we had heard so much about what He could do for people with little or no hope who put their trust in Him.

I can say without missing words now that we had no help from Family, friends, and we had no Fans. However, we had a God who didn’t just know the way but was ready to take us through it. He made a promise to us from the start in Isaiah 43:2 that says:

“When you pass through deep waters, I will be with you;
your troubles will not overwhelm you.
When you pass through the fire, you will not be burned;
the hard trials that come will not hurt you.”

Lawrenta and I have passed through DEEP WATERS, TROUBLES, FIRE and HARD TRIALS, and in all of these unpleasant situations, God has kept us by His Grace, and always had Pleasant Surprises waiting for us. He is indeed a God who watches over His Word to perform it.

Whenever I meet Couples who settle for Divorce, I always understand in the sense that no one can go through the deep waters, troubles, fire, and hard trials that we experience in life without God, and truly survive it, because these are Real Bitter Experiences of life. However, it is still not an excuse to chose Divorce over God. Until we give up control, humble ourselves, and come to that point where we admit that we know nothing about Life, we will never discover that GOD MAKES A WAY WHERE THERE SEEMS TO BE NO WAY!
