I'm chatting with my former classmate and I was thinking he wanted to know how my day went. Today was an unusual day for me, I had cramps like I'd never had in my entire career of womanhood. I could not rest in any particular position for 5 seconds,the pain was excruciating and I started to feel it in my stomach somehow. I could not go out of the house to call our housemaid in the shop, of what use would she be? I could not possible send someone who calls a napkin 'namigi' to get me any pain killers. And there was no one else in the house, I screamed, cried, groped and squeezed anything that I grasped, got nauseated and even had diarrhea. The pain lasted over two hours, the pain finally left when I didn't even notice because I drifted off to sleep at a time I finally could. Though these things are quite typical with painful cramps I didn't want to ever experience them but I did today and in the midst of the pain I wondered of what use all this pain was for. Why do women have to experience such pain and discomfort each month especially if they are not yet mothers? I'm just wondering. On Sunday, I told my teens about faith's expression through confession of God's word from the Bible and I was doing so through pain and tears. Really, someone may want to question my results in faith and my answer reminds me of a song by some American artist or Choir which I can't recall the name but some part of the song says
"May have some scars, I am healed.
Circumstances, I'm still healed.
May feel some pain, I am healed."
This just boils down to the truth that my situation does not alter my position and reality in Christ. I'm healed.
