Hope unbowed is a testimony of God’s unwavering mercy, grace and victory after more than a decade of waiting for the fruit of the womb. My husband and I got into marriage at 25 years and 23 years of age respectively soon after our graduation from the University of Nairobi. Like most young couples, we expected that children would easily come as soon as we were ready to have them.
It therefore came as a surprise, then shock; followed by all other associated motions of turmoil as a result of negative pregnancy test after another, as years went by. We eventually grew to a point of full surrender to God in full assurance that He alone is the author and giver of life, and the truth that every good and every perfect gift comes from Him.
Sustained by His grace, we soldiered on, remaining true to His calling as Pastors in a local congregation, besides other ministry involvement mostly in the prayer movement, alongside our market place assignments. In our 12th year of marriage, we welcomed our first baby.
27 years down the line in our walk in marriage, we are privileged and honored to be parents of 4 adorable children aged 15 years, 13 years and a set of twins aged 6 years. In the pages of this book, I share many precious lessons based on faith in God, which carried us through our season of waiting.
I pray that the testimony contained in this book will bring healing to a wounded soul, encouragement to one who is discouraged, and hope for one that is hopeless.
