Family/Parenting » HOW DO YOU RELATE WITH THE BARREN WOMEN AROUND YOU? by: Obajichi(f) .:. Fri, 30 Sep, 2022 - 10:28:53:am GMT
Recently I heard in the news of how a woman , by the mockery of her co wife, was tempted to steal a twin baby due to her barren situation in Bauchi state.

She was arrested eight days after she committed the crime and the baby has reunited with his family. When asked why she did it, the culprit attributed it to the shame she received from her family members and co wife. There are numerous cases like this.

From ancient times, even in the bible we have read of many barren women who later blessed with their bundles of joy.
Hannah was mocked by Peninnah her co -wife, just like the culprit in this story. The difference is that Hannah didn't steal probably because she put all her trust in God and He didn't disappoint her.

In a case where a barren woman's faith cannot carry her through, what then becomes of her?to How is she treated by the in-laws and the society.

In African society especially, marriage is not complete without the couple's biological children. They are regarded as the glory of the marriage.

Unfortunately, the pressure is on the woman. Most times the in-laws never believe its their son who has the issue especially if it's one wife he is married to.

The extended family becomes disappointed and could go the extra and unpleasant mile, as against the barren woman's wish, to get another wife for their son.

This eventually makes her feel useless and unwanted.
The way we relate to the barren women in our midst plays a great role on how she will be able to scale through that troubled stage of her life.
No one plans to be infertile whether as a married or a single.

How do you relate with the barren women around you?
Your thoughts could be of immense help to someone.

You never know!

Hmm! Your write-up is an eye-opener. To be barren at the moment does not mean the person will be barren for life but people don't acknowledge that. Some have even forgotten that God's timing is different from human timing.

The wonderful thing about God is that when people are looking at the left he is currently looking at the right, that is when people think it's over for the barren woman, God is just starting a new thing in her life. Let me state an example of a barren woman that I know although she lives on another street.

She and her husband are medical practitioners that own a respectable hospital. They were barren for 25 years and more. The day she was giving her testimony when they finally gave birth to twins(2 boys). She made the audience understand that they've been to so many places all to no avail but the moment she decided not to go anywhere again that if God is on the throne she will have her own that was when God did it.

Every barren woman should know that God is never too late! He is dependable and more than Faithful. People will always talk and mock you but hold on to that which says we should be fruitful and multiply. He has said it, he will do it. Rejoice!!!

**Always put God first **

This night my sis was asking me about my thoughts on marriage and I replied that I wish rapture would've sounded before I get to that stage of getting married. What are my reasons?

Seriously, I've thought about this life entirely from birth to death and I figured out the most challenging stage is getting married-marriage-raising a home stage. I've watched marriages around me and feel like the troubles, pains and challenges are more than the enjoyments.

I may be wrong with this, but remember I'm talking from the ones I've seen, maybe there are better marriages. And now coming here to see this post, I feel for women.

You know from worrying about marrying the right guy for you, to worrying about how to keep your man and the marriage. To worry about getting kids extending to now having kids and then worrying about raising them to be great kids. It's a lot for me.

I'm happy you made this post, I feel like reading this will remind each of us that aside from caring for the poor. We need to be cautious of how we act when we are with seemingly barren women.

They are going through a lot and it's on this note that I want to pray for every barren woman out there. I pray that God will make them smile with the cry of babies soon. Amen.
