Early in our marriage, our entire world crumbled when my husband left me for another woman. The pain was deep, leading to a two-year separation that brought us to the very brink of divorce.

But the Lord stepped in and turned things around. During that painful season, He did a deep work in my heart, bringing me complete healing and giving me the grace to forgive. Against all odds, He rekindled our love, and we fell in love all over again. My husband gave his life to Jesus and was water baptised right here in this church.

We started our lives afresh with no savings, no financial safety net and no master plan. Yet, the Lord faithfully provided for our needs, enabling my husband to complete his diploma, continue working and eventually earn his degree.

When we felt ready to trust God for a child, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which affected my fertility. As we continued taking our prescribed medication, we declared God’s promises over our bodies: The Lord fights for us. By His stripes, I am healed, and we shall not lack.

I vividly remember attending a service when Pastor Prince called for couples who were trusting God for a child to stand. We stood up, anchoring our faith in the Lord.

Some time later, we rejoiced over a positive pregnancy test, only to be heartbroken by a miscarriage four weeks later. It was a severe test of our faith. A couple of months later, as my husband walked across the stage at his graduation, we still felt a profound emptiness as we grieved our loss. Little did we know that God was already writing the next chapter. I was pregnant again!

Throughout this journey, we held fast to the truth of the divine exchange at the cross. Because Jesus gave His life for us, we knew we could trust Him for healing, restoration and the gift of a family.

The pregnancy wasn't easy. Just one week before delivery, a scan revealed that the umbilical cord was wrapped tightly around our baby's neck. But God had the final word! I went through an induced labour without an epidural and delivered our son naturally, with the cord completely clear of his neck!

God's timing was perfect, down to the smallest detail. Before our son was born, the Lord graciously blessed us with a new home and enabled my husband to complete his degree. And after eight long years of waiting, He blessed us with a healthy, adorable baby boy, whom we named Gabriel, meaning "God is my strength". Praise the Lord!

My husband and I had been married for five years when, around our third year of marriage, our relationship began to fall apart. Eventually, we reached breaking point and agreed to give our marriage one final chance. If nothing changed, we would get divorced.

Some time later, a dear friend from New Creation Church invited me to her home for a Christmas gathering. I experienced such genuine love and kindness from her and her friends, and I was inspired by the way she and her husband cared for one another. It gave me a beautiful picture of what a Christ-centred marriage could look like.

One day, my friend said something that stayed with me: "Jesus can revive anything, including marriages." Those words remained in my heart throughout the year. She also shared how her family had begun praying together and praying for one another, which inspired me to do the same with my husband.

One evening, I asked my husband if we could say grace before dinner. Although he wasn't a Christian, he readily agreed. Later, I asked if we could pray for one another by speaking aloud what we wanted God to do in each other's lives. It felt awkward and unfamiliar, and our prayers were hesitant and clumsy, but we chose to pray anyway. Those simple prayers became the beginning of God's miraculous work in our marriage.

Over the following months, our relationship gradually began to change. There was more peace, greater understanding, and less conflict. Then came one of the greatest miracles. One Sunday, my husband agreed to come to church with me for the very first time. After the service, he thanked me for bringing him and said that no one had ever invited him to church before.

The greatest miracle came on Sunday, 17 May 2026. Pastor Prince was preaching that morning, and at the end of the service, my husband responded to the altar call and prayed to receive Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour. Watching my husband receive Christ was one of the happiest moments of my life.

Today, our marriage is not perfect, but it has been transformed. Day by day, God is shaping us to become more like Christ and to walk in the fullness of His promises for our marriage. Jesus is now at the centre of our relationship. We have more peace, more love, more forgiveness, and more grace for one another. Jesus didn't just save our marriage—He saved both of us.
