CONFESSION 2: Don't punish my Daughter... Punish Me



DON'T PUNISH MY DAUGHTER, PUNISH ME


The last confession story was about a man in his early days, but this confession is about a married woman who fell into an error during courtship, when she confessed to her husband, then fiance, he forgave her.


Forgiveness recognizes that human beings are not perfect, and the immediate benefit of forgiving people comes to you, as forgiveness affects your spirit, soul, and body.  Forgiveness is a form of forbearance that releases people from your heart and brings you freedom and spiritual healing. 


This confession will teach a lot of people a lesson on forgiveness.  Without forgiveness, the love you profess for your spouse is not deep enough.  We must learn to 'let go' of an offence, and it must come from the heart.  The courage and willingness to forgive your spouse is a sign of spiritual maturity in Christ. 


Here's the Confession of a married woman, now born again.


Hi brethren, I just want to share my true life story with you so that you can learn from it. We are human beings, we make mistakes every day but it is left for you to learn from your mistakes. 


I met this guy in 2001 when I was writing WAEC, his name is Agu. We fell in love. “He was everything a woman would ask for; he is fair, handsome, intelligent and God fearing, he loved me so much, he shared the little he had with me, and he was willing to do anything I asked for though he didn’t have much because he was still in second year at university of Nigeria, Enugu campus.


“He did everything possible for me to gain admission into the university. I eventually gained admission in 2003 at Enugu State University of Science and Technology and graduated in 2007. I don’t know what came over me. I had a fling with this guy named Buchi. Though I never loved him, I became pregnant with him. I didn’t know what to do, but terminating the pregnancy was not an option.


I didn’t want to lose Agu. It was as if my world had crumbled. I didn’t tell anybody not even my best friend because I never could tell what would happen if I did. I made a smart move by telling Agu that I was pregnant for him. Of course, he believed me because he trusted me so much but I betrayed his love for me.


He came to see my people, though my parents are dead. I eventually put to bed, a baby girl. This was in 2008. Do you know what my baby was exactly the carbon copy of Buchi, the guy I had a fling with? I was not surprised because I knew the pregnancy wasn’t Agu’s but I thought the baby would’ve resembled me.


Of course, I was wrong. Agu accepted us even when he knew the baby did not look like him or me. Ever since I have been dying in silence. My conscience kept killing me. At one point, I hated my own child seeing a picture of another man in her.


My husband, Agu loved her so much more than anything. In 2010, I had another baby boy for my husband. My joy knew no bounds. I was really happy, my husband was happy as well. In 2012, I had another baby boy for my husband, Agu. Even at that, he loved my daughter more than his two biological sons.


At one point, I became jealous but what can I do. I just couldn’t bear it any more so I decided to give my life to Christ and beg God for forgiveness which I know he has done. This I did because I couldn’t continue to die in silence. It was now for me to confess to my husband but how would I achieve that without breaking my home?


I didn’t want to lose my home, I loved my husband and my kids. “He is a wonderful man but I betrayed him. I prayed and asked God to give me the strength to confess to him… On the set day, I first called him on the phone to ask him if he would ever forgive me. He asked what I meant by that. He asked if I was alright and I said yes.


He hung up on me. I cried like a baby. When he came back from work that same day, I served him his dinner. After that, I went with him into the room and told him to forgive me and that he should not punish our daughter for what she did not know about but punish me. He Already Knew That He Is Not The Father Of Our Daughter: “He asked again what I meant by that. I narrated everything that transpired between Buchi and me.


To my greatest surprise, he dropped a bombshell. He said he knew all these years that he was not the biological father of our 4-year-old daughter. I asked him if he knew about it and didn’t bother to ask me? He said that he knew that someday I was going to tell him but he never knew it would come this soon. It was as if the ground should open and swallow me.


I was so ashamed of myself that I bowed my face in tears but he cuddled me and said he’d forgiven me long ago. He said that we pray every day OUR FATHER FORGIVE US OUR SINS AS WE FORGIVE THOSE TRESPASS AGAINST US, why won’t he forgive me? “He said no one is perfect and that we make mistakes in life.


He said that I was a nice person and that we had been through a lot in life. So, he cannot abandon me now that I need him most. He told me that he could possibly throw me out so that people would laugh at me but he has always loved me. “As for my daughter, as far as he is concerned, she is his daughter.


He has always seen her as one and that he will always love us. I was short of words, all I could do was to cry and thank him and thank God for the kind of man he has given me because I know that no man would take that from any woman no matter what except by the special grace of God.


I am now a happy person and I have given my life to Jesus Christ. We must learn how to confess our sins no matter what so that Satan will be put to shame and also learn how to forgive. We now live in the with my daughter and my two boys in the UK.


CONCLUSION:

Friends, Jesus is coming soon.  It is the loving-kindness of God that He has kept you alive till now.  So, give Him praises and receive His Son, Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour of your life.


Today is the day of salvation, tomorrow may be late!


Say this simple prayer: 

Heavenly Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ.

I believe Jesus died for my sins and rose again for my justification. I repent of my sins and ask for forgiveness. I ask Jesus to come into my heart and reign as my Lord and Saviour.   

 

I receive Him by faith and I am born again.
