You know what, sometimes, when i write things for my blog, i get butterflies in my tummy. Seriously !! Today, let me share something about my MOP college life.. I have spoken a lot about WCC yet hardly ever about MOP.
Now, probably i was among the quietest girl in the group, as i did not have many things in common with the rest of my classmates. It must have been hard for them to be friendly with me. They were a group of naughty...trust me......very naughty girls..!!
So, i was known as the balabrahmachari there !! How did i get that ..it happened during our college tour to Cochin. hhaaa..that was really funny. The tour coordinators had booked a hotel for the three departments and that was the (Mass Communication, Media management and Broadcast..something ..) Fine, the funniest part was..there was a bar at the ground floor of the hotel and my naughty friends would peep from above to see what was going on downstairs.
Now one final day..these girls had decided to go down and get into the bar and see what was going on inside and three of us were left in the room all by ourselves in the first floor. On their way these naughty girls had knocked at one of the door of another room which happened to be of a group of boys at the ground floor. After half an hour, when just three of us were in the room. I was in the hall room and the other two inside the bedroom. The doors were just shut and not bolted and there was this guy who so easily tip toed inside our room. I sensed some kind of a sound and looked behind me..almost about to scream. On seeing me ..... he apologized and said that he had come in by mistake...and i as '...' as i was..said ..ok!!..no problem..!!! It didn't click me at all. I did not understand what was happening!! He was still inside the hall room and then a girl from another department noticed him inside the room and on seeing him..she shouted..scolded and chased him outside. I was standing there like a statue and pillar ...... not even realizing what was happening..!! After 5 minute or so all my class girls had come in on hearing the shout and scream. This girl explained the situation to them and even narrated how jesse had reacted to the situation..They were like 'jesse...!!" i told them..i thought he had come in by mistake ..!!
It was then that we had a round table conference and they all came to me with this question..'jesse are you going to marry ?' You...girl!!
I told them 'no..! i wasn't !!! They tried convincing me ..... what if you get someone just like you....someone who loves God dearly..will you not consider..this was asked by Khadija..i replied..nothing doing 'NO'.
Why was i so sure about that ?
When i was in my first or second year in WCC. Uncle and i, had gone for a meeting in Velacherry...after the meeting..we were staying with a couple..the girl was a friend of mine.. as i noticed that my friend was now married.....a sudden question arose in my heart.....probably that was
the first time....' I asked the Lord......Lord what about my future ?' and then as i was reading the word of God...i was lead to the verse in Jeremiah 16:2
Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.
That's it....it was from then i believed God wanted me to remain single..i believed it was His will..not just that... as You all must be knowing by now...am a big dreamer..so until then ..or maybe for another 2-3 years from then ...all the dreams i ever had about my marriage would be incomplete..somehow ..it wouldn't lead to marriage at all..in all my dreams 100 % of them..so i was so sure that God wanted me to remain single..!!
And thank God that guarded me during the 3-4 years of my college life..!! Thank You Father !!
So i tried explaining this to my MOP friends and they stopped nagging me since then..and never pulled me into any adult talk !!
So now it's been nearly 3 years....as God has been leading me in a different way and now am convinced that God's will for my future is to marry and not to remain single. I realized that this decision of mine wasn't shared with my MOP friends except for one of my closest friend. So how
should i break this news ? I had an opportunity two months ago..yet i didn't have the guts to do so then...yet somehow today when a friend was sharing about her pregnancy news...i thought this was THE time and i let it out..let's see the reaction..probably they seem to be excited as if everything is already fixed!! .....Anyways!! Sweet friends indeed!!

So this was a glimpse into it..my dear friends wished me as if i was announcing my marriage date ;)
Funny..anyways..to summon up...let me share a very very strange and yes confidential..dream( now..it will no longer remain so)
This dream is dated 3rd June..2014!! Let me try to quote the exact words from my diary ...... BTW somethings i wouldn't reveal as of now !! ;)
"I saw a dream....there was this man...definitely .....looking and all i remember was his father also..... ...!! This boy was supposed to ........ am not sure yet i used to marry him ..... and i remember...........( i remember that the people around me..probably from my husband's side were staring at me...) i remember getting down the building (or church) and my husband was missing...everyone
around considered me to be a very immature girl..they were all staring at me!!!! They considered Mercy to be smart. So, we ( Mercy,Ruth and i) were waiting for my husband to come and pick us up. So my husband comes in his car and picks us up.... all of us..and before that he goes and gets a book for Mercy about 'single hood ' or something.........................Then he calls me for help if i wished to. In my dream i realized that he wanted to give me responsibility ................. In my dream - in my heart - i loved him and he too was a very good man !! Such a strange dream....first time ever...i was already married in my dream..!!" When i woke up that morning...i had a very light feeling...a sense of joy and ease !!
Strange and really strange..!!! Anyways...that's it...... my work is done..have announced it....at least now..!!! it's never too late !!!
