Surrender


          constantly is in my life. This is why it is critical; it is life to hear and ex-
          perience God for yourself. Because this Word that proceeds from the
          mouth of God is what we shall always (eternally) live on.
          This Word is the Truth that sets you free; The Way to eternity; The
          Light that guides you through every dark tunnel; The love that casts out
          fear in/of whatever you are going through; whatever you have other-
          wise been told. The Word at the beginning ALWAYS PREVAILS. This
          is why it is always CRITICAL to hear God FIRST about everything and
          anything you are to be and do. So I say to you, what has God said? Back
          in Eden, one of the pertinent questions that God asked Adam was,
          “Who told you?” Who said?”

          All these Rhemas are what I held on to when, upon His instructions,
          I went to a government hospital in Imara Daima the following week
          on Tuesday. He told me to get a scan and folic acid. I felt the tests I
          had been asked to go and get were rather unnecessary seeing as this
          was my third rodeo within three years. Yet there was no request for an
          ultrasound. And so when I saw the referring doctor, I accosted her in
          the hallway and expressed my desire to get an ultrasound. Her response,
          “That is unnecessary at this point.”


          After the painfully long waiting period, I got to go to the private lab
          outside the hospital where they send patients. I was supposed to do a
          HB test. However, while there I asked if they could do the scan without
          a doctor’s request, to which they responded, “Of course!”
          I went in and lay down, and the sonographer started waving his magic
          wand on my lower abdomen. With obvious concern on his face, he
          started asking me questions. “Are you sure about the date you have pro-
          vided for your LMP (last menstrual period)?” I told him we have learnt
          from the other two pregnancies not to rely on my LMP because it is
          always misleading. I mentioned the PCOS diagnosis too. He went quiet
          and after a while decided that perhaps my bladder was not full enough
