Scenario :: 12-Oct-2009


Rose who lives in Sakumono, has been married for ten years to a pharmacist. She has a loving husband, three adorable children and a stable job but there is a dark secret haunting her and since she got born – again last month it has been tormenting her. Rose was dating Ayittey when he met the pharmacist but though she loved Ayittey very much, he was a ladies man and not ready to settle down. She therefore dumped him and married the pharmacist after a brief period of courtship. While the husband was away to do his round up in the U.K and come back home to settle finally; Rose feeling bad for dumping Ayittey went to say her good-byes to him. When she went, one thing led to the other they had an affair and she took seed. A month later, the pharmacist returned. They have been married for ten years now and have two other children besides.
Last week she got born again and rededicated her life to Christ. She has prayed to God for forgiveness, but she’s being haunted day and night by what she did with Ayittey and the fact that the first child is not the pharmacists. She has made her peace with God and now wants to make peace with husband but she is afraid if she does he will divorce her. Should she confess the truth to the husband? What should she do?

That is not a great home. The wife is not happy and that can't be a great home. In any case the child is not for the man whether she says it or not. The God who she has found is the same God who will take care of the consequences. What about after confessing, the husband took it cool and is happy with it and tells nobody? She should confess.

Your forgiveness by God does not depend on u confessing to ur husband. Time will clear ur conscience. Remain silent and save ur marriage and the agony of the little innocent kids.

There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. The longer this secret remains, the more deadly the consequences will become when it finally comes out. Some health situations with the child could reveal the truth. It happened in my extended family. Ayittey can come around later to claim his child.

Rose claims to be born again. How does she feel each time her husband introduces the child as his firstborn? How can she claim to love this innocent man and keep this from him? Love is not selfish. She cannot keep this wicked deceit in order to selfishly keep her marriage intact.

Hmm? Bola Or yeh Asem O!!
This issue is a difficult one, however If the lady is born again, then she should not be afraid to tell her man about the issue. The husband should also do the right thing and NOT allow his anger to break up his family. There is a saying the the evil that 'men' do lives after them. Well this also applies to women. She is BORN again and should do the right thing >> U cannot hide away from your sins. It will always come to LIGHT. LIGHT allows us to see our failures and correct them. This is purely between the man and his wife and they should not allow it go affect the child or children. LIGHT is GOOD. GOD is LIGHT!!!
I am off my soapbox.

Hey girl, tell him. No man is prefect. For all you know the Dude has kids somewhere else and you will be surprise how shock you will be and not him.

A friend had a one night stand with a girl, got her pregnant and decided to tell the wife, only for the wife to tell him she has 2 kids in Ghana.

Do not expect an angel from a human being.

Give him some good sex and tell him....

This is very serious matter because the child is another man's son, the dad is wild about the out come of his son in the wrong hands and needs careful attention.

She has to confess to her husband and leave the rest to God. God controls every heart and if her husband truly loves her and a true beliver, he will surely let things go. I might take time, but time they say heal all wounds.

Hello Rose, you will continue to be tormented until you speak the truth. I know you'have never been comfortable for the past ten years. Once God has called you for his purpose, he would also want you to fulfil his calling by being obedient to his word and doing his will. Please confess! It will make you a free person

being born again is a renewal of the spirit and the soul.God is all forgiving but can we say same for man?she knows the husband better than any of us.if he is the type that forgives easily then why not,but if the case is the contrary then time will tell.
