What is her name?
I want to write
about what is in a name. I have heard from so many people the importance
of a name and I had to review my own name. I was amazed at the result.
My name is Aderonke which literarily means “The Crown has seen someone
to pamper”. The name does means something I realized.. I have always
been cherished and pampered wherever I find myself. I am the last born
of the family and my mum calls me baby
or “omo mi” (my child) in Yoruba. The two names are pronounced fondly
and whenever I am disturbing my elder ones, they tell my mum to warn her
child (Mummy, e so fun omo yin) as if they are not her children too. Im
talking too much about myself. Lets go to the book of beginnings
Gen 2:21-23
I was recently reading something about this scripture (Matt 19:6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.)and I agreed with
the writer and I decided to share in that same line. The first point is
that It is God that joined us together in marriage. It is not you or
your husband that joined you together. If we see marriage as a divine
act of God there will be no argument o whether the wedding should be
white or red, large or small. The most important thing will be the fact
that God is the originator ad his approval is the most important thing,
and that the miracle took place the day you exchange vows with him/her,
whether in a church hall, a courtroom, or in front of an ocean. So we
should agree that God has joined us together and the Bible says they are
no longer two but one flesh. Their lives are now intermingled and
intertwined in such a way that whatever affects him affects her. His/her
headache is your headaches and his/her fruitfulness is your
fruitfulness. His/her achievements is your achievement (wished brothers
who squash their wife’s gifting will understand this).
