MY DIVINE PREGNANCY EXPERIENCE

Please believe me when I say it came without warning!

I didn't know I was pregnant!

One early Saturday morning I was woken up by this funny tickling movement in my tiny stomach,

So I rushed out to the bathroom pretty sure that I would throw up,

But nothing seemed to come out so I went back to bed; lying to myself that I was asleep,

And even though physically calm and rested so to speak; inwardly wrestling with unknown giants,

Finally giving in to the fight and letting it sink deep!!

Letting it sink deep that I was indeed pregnant,

But somehow finding a happy place amidst such turmoil,

Contrary to my expectations, with every movement I felt love, joy and renewed confidence!!

My tummy kept protruding however hard I tried to hide it_ so I thought,

I couldn't imagine this tiny being was growing to be bigger than I could ever hide,

And with every new day; there was always a new moment; a brutish reminder that I was pregnant!!

Sometimes it felt like a fire burning; trying out all humanly ways to quench itself,

Other times it felt calm and quiet; I guess the baby was asleep but still growing,

Making me feel so alive but at the same time scared of the unknown!!

All this while; thousands of questions running through my mind,

Will I be responsible enough?

Am I ready for this and strong enough to sustain it?

How about my family and friends?

But I somehow knew I was fully prepared for the task,

All set for both ridicules and genuine pats on my back,

I knew it won’t be easy; but I also knew it would be a new intimacy to enjoy;

From three months, to six, to nine and I was finally ready to push it out.

I was ready to bring forth my dream- My Divine Purpose!!

See, I didn't know I was pregnant with a dream,

With every sharp pain the intensity to push multiplied, every contraction paving a pathway to my baby- My Divine Purpose,

My waters broke and streamed like a constrained river finally free,

With every sweat-drop on my forehead; more in- built pressure to keep pushing,

With every firm grip on my delivery bed; joy rekindled,

Finally beholding a new hope; beauty in all its perfection,

Embracing my purpose; thanking God for the opportunity.

This time round; there was no giving up!

I was finally building a new hub; A new thinking perspective!

To nurture my purpose to maturity; and abundance thereafter!

My Purpose for Existence!
