these are the families during the teaching sectionFor a long time now we have been wondering and praying for a chance to share, the joy of a good marriage with our other families in the Church, though we once have done this to our student as a form of a seminar, but in the Church there was a lot of gap, that need to be closed. so the Lord brought to us the chance to share about this topic.
ONE OF THE TROUBLED FAMILYWe took time during one of the Sundays to introduce this hot topic, to our amazement; it was welcomed with an open arm. We taught that Sunday about marriage, bringing all the families together, each one with his wife sitting close to him, this was not something that the Sudanese are use to but we insisted that it must have to be that way, and the good Lord, helped us to convince them. just then we kicked off the teaching, in just a few time they started nodding their head, but from the beginning they were all shay to sit with their wives, i then asked a quick question, “ how long have some of you sat with your wives like this” some say since we got married others say 8years, ago, the lowest was, 4years back, on hearing this a chill ran down my spine, to make things short we then had both the men and women, making new promises to their wives. The promise was to have a change in their marriage.
FAMILIES MAKING NEW PROMISES.One other thing that we have learned is that there are a lot of problems in most of the marriages or say families that were in attendance, after, asking if there is anything we want to be praying about, a lot of hands shut up. Given the chance to say their request, it turns out to be a problem, ranging from fighting, separation, alcoholism, and maltreatment. We then had appointment with the troubled families, just to have like a counselling section with hem, that really paid off, we were able to start few we have made a breakthrough but some we are still trusting the Lord to have his way, and bring a resolve in the issues keep praying for them.
THE SPEAKER IN ACTION.
KEEP PRAYING FOR THESE FAMILIES, AS WE ALSO HELP AND PRAY THAT THE GOOD LORD WILL MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR US TO BRING A CHANGE.
