“I have just come back from my scan and you will all be pleased to know that I dont have an aneurysm, however I do have a problem and have to have key hole surgery, an angioblast. At long last I have finally found out whats wrong with my walking and its not been just in my head and I am not going mad. As soon as I have had the surgery I will regain the full use of both my legs again and I will be able to walk again. I must say I have been through hell and am really glad that I did go for the scan and I strongly urge all of you to please get checked out. I will have to stop smoking because the risk of this happening again is very big, so Please pray for me to have the strength to quit smoking…”
So, as soon as I heard this, I had no option but to submit this post, and ask you to take a moment to pray for Michelle, that as she undergoes this surgical proceedure everything will go well and be successful, and also that her recovery will be swift, and that her health will return to normal. I will be submitting more posts over the weekend, but just wanted to get this out there for you all to say a prayer…thank you humbly!
I created this space as a welcoming home for candid life discussions, faith, and purposeful community. My journey has been anything but conventional—from navigating childhood moves to Europe, spending 40 years in the printing industry, and living across two vastly different worlds in Zimbabwe and the United States, God has spent decades quietly forming my heart before officially calling me into pastoral ministry. Recently ordained and commissioned as a pastor, I write from a place of real, lived experience, openly sharing the highs of deep faith alongside the raw seasons of depression, doubt, and navigating life’s unexpected detours. Since establishing this journal back in 2005, my mission remains simple: to listen without judgment, share honest testimonies, and encourage you to slow down, press pause, and discover how to shine brightly for Jesus in our everyday lives.
