TEARS OF JOY

Tears of joy which had been caged by those of suffering were released out of prison and ran down freely as Tabitha embraced Dike.

Her mom and father sat the opposite direction where she sat. As she beheld them, she could see how they were both shading tears of joy as well. They were simply thrown down by how much a life could be transformed in no time.

When everyone was sited, Tabitha's dad stood up and began to plead for her forgiveness;

"My child, I have wronged you in no small way. Please I am asking for your forgiveness. Have mercy on me for all that I have done against you. Your God Has proven since you came here that although I put you off, he didn't reject you."

As he spoke, his wife, Tabitha's mother also joined him.

As they were about kneeling down, Tabitha ran and held them from doing so.

"Mommy, dad, this was for my own good and the good of the entire family. If not for what you did, I won't be where I am today. God has used the events of my life to portray a simple message that nobody is messed up too much that he cannot cleanse. Dad, my only request is for you to be born again. Please I want you to give your life to Jesus Christ." She responded to them.

Without failing, Tabitha's dad immediately requested for him to be led to Christ of which it was done to the glory of God and joy of everyone present.

Two days after this breakthrough proposal, Tabitha received a call from Mrs Peter that Tony was dead.

How it happened, he was on his way back late evening from drinking and was crushed on the road by a car while returning home.

The news took Tabitha with much surprise and pains, so much that she wept greatly Tony. No matter what, Tony was still the father of Joy, until dead.

With the development, Joy automatically was opened with free hands to be adopted by Dike as the two would be married in few weeks to come.

The day Dike proposed to his love was the last day that he spent in the family house as his residence.

The following day, he left for his house in Lagos where he will be spending his life and that with his soon to be bride and adopted daughter Joy.

Tabitha's parents also returned to the village three days following the event.

The proceeding weeks would see to the magnificent marital engagements of the two lovers.

The return of her parents was a special plead from the Ezes so that they could put things in order ahead of the traditional marriage, an event everyone looked forward to.

Truly, the life of Tabitha continued to be a proof that there is no life God cannot transform.
