Since her husband, Archbishop Benson Idahosa, passed away, she has been as the leader of Church of God Missions International, Inc. Having witnessed it all, she told her husband Idahosa about her wedding day and gave advice to young ladies on what not to do before getting married. In order to prevent the new ladies, our girls, from saying, “I won’t get married until I have this, until I have that,” I need to clarify something with you about the day we got married.
We took a loan of our car on the day of our wedding. We were driven to the church and back to the reception by our car. My spouse stole the automobile when the owner informed him, he had somewhere to go before the reception ended. After that, we had our reception outside one of the in-laws’ homes. The father-in-law informed his wife, “Listen, I don’t want to meet any crowd at the front of my house,” as he was returning from Lagos.
When it was time for us to head home, there was no car because we had hurried things along.
Before we reached our house, we had to pass about eight houses, so my husband had to carry my veil while I had to tiptoe. She described how she and her husband hiked or walked to the house as my husband held my veil.
Why am I stating this?
I’m posting this to help our young females understand that not everything is required. Though it wasn’t a possibility back then, I could simply arrange for a limousine to transport me to church if I wanted one now. You see, your future is full of greatness, power, and promise, so don’t allow your current circumstances dictate it. Therefore, don’t let your current situation discourage you or impair your ability to bounce back from setbacks.
