‘In Just One Year My Life Changed Forever’, Read Matse Uwatse’s Story

2013!! Slowly coming to an end. A year of many joys and
enlightenment. If one had told me on the December 31,
2012 when I lit fireworks and screamed 'Happy New
Year!' that I would be married and expecting a miracle; my
mini-me, I would have doubted. If someone had told me I
would be a dual citizen of Nigeria and Germany, I would
have wondered how. I was terribly hurt in 2012 but in just
one year my life changed forever.

Some have said, 'Can she ever settle down?', 'Who will
marry this feminist?', 'Which man go put this one for
house?'. Well, my God has answered those questions. I
have grown mentally, spiritually and emotionally. I have
learnt not to be selfish and more tolerant. It wasn't all roses
in 2013…I lost my job that I put so much into but
gratefully other doors are opening. I was sick beyond
comprehension and thought I would die but God was with
me.

I fought with some family members but it brought us
closer. I gained better relationships with my loved ones and
I acquired a brand new family (The Nnolis) and in the
process of making my own. As the last days of December
2013 comes, keep believing, keep fighting and stay strong.
Miracles do happen. You heart desires will be granted.
Your pain will be removed and your joy established. But
remember, always keep a clean heart and wish others no
evil and I guaranty you, it will be well with you shortly.

Lord, I thank you for 2013…It is a year I will always
remember. Keep us all to enjoy the blessing of 2014.
