From two to an eye

From two to an eye,
from normal to a disability,
a disability that was created by my loved ones,
I had my two eyes working perfectly as the unmoved mover created,
a creation with brilliant ideas,
ideas that were supported by God and a project approved by my lectures at daystar university at the oldies, time flies quickly has a baby’s diarrheal, life is mystical and wonderful has the concept of the brain.

From two to an eye,
my main goal was to help orphans, widows, and the haves not in my town which was successful since God was my root and gave me brilliant people for starters;
God lifted me to a level I was working with the traumaid, Fred and Elsie, UN Bangladesh, etc.

Little did I know, my enemies were very close to me,
the enemy who wished every day for my death,
death not coming from the above,

I started being sick in a weird way to a level doctors couldn’t understand,
I was diagnosed with a tumor behind my eyes,
a tumor that made me blind on one side,
weird wounds appearing on my body to a level that my half started saying in front of my children that am smelling bad to the point I should return to my parent;
my half blessed in front of God start saying he is tired of me in front of my children,
my half preaching in front of youth,
oh God, why?” I cried;”
my half who didn’t want to help me in private but asked for support in public;
God, I leave him in your hand.
I wasn’t able to walk but every day, my 5-year-old son would wake me up at 5 AM to do physical exercise while my half was asleep, got sick to the level I was on my death bed,
and my half started propagating news of my death when my breath wasn’t taken away.
miraculously, I improved from very worse to good,
I didn’t stop believing in God during that time while saying” God, I know you will do miracles for me the same way you did for Daniel in a hole full of lions, I might remain with an eye but I will still see my grandchildren and continue helping orphans, widows and the have not;”

From two to an eye,
at my deathbed, the school was on sale, and my properties were without my family’s knowledge,
oh! wicked world.
miraculously, God proved my enemies wrong,
truly doing Good pays off,
a lot of people prayed and supported me, starting from my children, my family, the school, trinity church, the Maf missionary group, CMs, etc.
my dreams were on the edge of falling but with God as my root, I miraculously improved, to a level that people are still in shock because rumors spread that I was dead while alive.
has an African proverb that says” A person who digs a cemetery hole never gets tired until they see the casket in the ground.
oh! God is Good.
my enemies tried to change the subject from dead to mad,
life is funny.

Before I used to work as hard as a man, working at the office, driving bus, car, lorry, and tractors for the improvement of the school which was very productive until the two become an eye but it didn’t stop me from working,
I am sure the next time when my specialist will see me, they will be surprised since I have no pain in the head or eyes, and can write, drive and sit at the meeting while expressing my views.

From two to an eye,
from normal to a disability,
never lose hope and faith;
this story is to prove to you that God does exist,
prayers work,
enemies are the ones we once loved and cared for, never hold grudges, if God hasn’t accepted your fall, you will not fall,

I have survived approximately 15 years with the so-called tumor without operation and somehow God has made it possible for it to stop growing.
if the gold miracle happened to me, it will happen to you just don’t lose hope and continue doing good because what goes around comes around,
Just believe.
