He carefully planned and
looked forward to seeing my complete being. I can imagine the look of
love and adoration at the sight of the work of His hands.David said it
better in his psalm 139.
All my days full of troubles and smiles ordained for me were written
in your book before one of them came to be. In light and in darkness
alike I cannot hide from your spirit and to me that's enough to keep
me afloat this life of mixed ingredients. You know what people assume
about me is not what I am. They judge according to what they see but
God who searches the hearts of men knows everything about me.
what people talk about me is their business and am thankful to them
for choosing me as their employer at a free cost. I don't live my life
to please anyone because what's the use of pleasing others who have
thick slices of their own sins? christ paid a price too dear for me to
worry about that. oops forgive my lack of manners . my name is Wangu
Banda am from chintheche Nkhatabay and I want to tell you how I became
a single mother.
To me its like I have always been a mum to my baby Amanda because I
can't remember the last time I wasn't on her beck and call. I stopped
living for myself time immemorial and am totally absorbed in my
motherhood role. I became pregnant when I was 16. The funny thing is
that my parents don't know of Amanda's existence and I don't intend to
let them know anytime soon.
If I take her home people will probably think I am doing my busy
working neighbour a favour. my mum will even suggest to take her back
to the owner on my provision of an address valid or invalid. That is
the kind of trust my parents have for me because to them am their
golden girl and I cant miss my step in this life.uhmm sad. Its a pity
what people do to extreme heights in ignorance of their parents. I
remember when I was nine years way back home. Our neighbor had a
daughter Viyegzo who was the first girl to go to secondary school
after a decade.
The whole village was happy and they supported her in everything.
Before she wrote her JCE examinations she came back home and told her
parents that they have closed the school due to water problems and
will be recalled in a date later to be communicated. One day I was
home alone when my mum and dad went to our maize field far away from
home. I was in my room reading my books when I suddenly heard groans
and m0ans followed by loud cries of a baby. I couldn't concentrate on
who would leave the baby to cry like that.
The cries grew louder as I stepped outside. I realised that they were
coming from the grass thatched bathroom behind the house. As I was
approaching I shouted if their was anyone inside but there was no
reply. I opened the bathroom door and …..
Oh my God!!!!!!
