Antonia The Yellow Dove Opens Up On Mental Health

Zambian gospel music artist and TV presenter, Antonio the Yellow Dove, recently opened up on his personal struggle with mental health. Speculations about his recent pictures on social media led to him sharing his experience and shedding light on the issue.

In a heartfelt message, Antonio revealed that he had battled a mental illness a few years ago, describing it as a dark period in his life. During that time, he faced numerous challenges, including losing friends, school scholarships, and business deals. Antonio also endured ridicule and discrimination, with some unnamed prominent churches even segregating and judging him because of his illness.

As a Mental Health Advocate, Antonio utilizes his music and his book, “Born to Win,” to educate people about mental health. In the book, he candidly shares his personal journey, providing a detailed account of his struggle and ultimate triumph over his mental illness.

Antonio concluded his statement by expressing his excitement about upcoming music videos. Through his work and personal experiences, he aims to inspire others and spread awareness about mental health, emphasizing that no one should suffer in silence.

Antonio’s courageous decision to open up about his mental health struggle serves as a reminder of the importance of addressing mental health issues within society. His story is an inspiration to many, highlighting the power of resilience, faith, and support in overcoming personal challenges.

And that we should pray for people with mental issues and try to get more knowledge about mental health issues so we can try to assist those suffering from mental illnesses.

Best day of my life

This morning when I woke up, I said to myself: “Today will be the best day of my life”. I promised myself that no matter what happens, I will continue to believe it is the best day ever. I decided that I will not allow people or circumstances to change my mind. It is a choice I made.

So, today, I’m going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so far: the accomplishments, the many blessings, and, yes, even the hardships, because they have served to make me stronger.

I will go through this day with my head held high, and a happy heart. I will marvel at God’s seemingly simple gifts: the morning dew, the sun, the clouds, the trees, the flowers, the birds. Today, none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.

Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people. I’ll make someone smile. I’ll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of kindness for someone I don’t even know.

Today, I’ll give a sincere compliment to someone who seems down. I’ll tell someone how special he/she is, that they are loved and that they mean something to someone.

Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don’t have and start being grateful for all the wonderful things God has already given me. I’ll remember that to worry is just a waste of time, because my faith in God and His divine plan ensures everything will be just fine.

And tonight, before I go to bed, I’ll go outside and raise my eyes to the heavens. I will stand in awe at the beauty of the stars and the moon, and I will praise God for these magnificent treasures.

As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow, I will thank the Almighty for the best day of my life, and I will sleep the sleep of a contented child, excited with expectation, because I know tomorrow is going to be the best day of my life.

Brothers and sisters in Christ, may YOU also make the choice to call today the best day of your life, and everyday going forward. We all are in control of our emotions and decisions. Let us choose to be happy, let us choose to not be influenced by others and the challenges we face.

TODAY WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!

Ps 118:24: This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.

God bless you,

Jaco van As

Best day of my life

Don’t Be A Prisoner Of Your Past

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17).

There are those who are haunted by guilt and memories of the past. They’re fighting so hard to overcome painful memories. They’re in bondage to their past, probably because of some terrible things they had done or the hurt they suffered, and they’ve been living with the pain ever since.

You need to understand what it means to be born again, to be a new creation: you’re a brand new person. You’re not the same person who had those horrible experiences. That person died in Christ. The new “you” is absolved of all guilt; free of errors and imperfections.

Romans 5:18 says, “Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.” Jesus wasn’t only delivered on account of our sins, He was also raised for our justification (Romans 4:25). What does this mean?

It means you were declared “not guilty”; no charge against you. The reason is simple: you’re a new creation; a brand new person without a past. So, even if you did something wrong in the past that still makes you feel guilty, it’s all based on memory and emotions. In Christianity, we don’t walk by our feelings; we walk by faith. We live on the affirmation of God’s Word.

Don’t recollect a bitter experience you might have had many years ago and start crying that God should forgive you. Refuse to be held captive by guilt or memories of the past.

Romans 4:25 AMPC says Jesus was raised from the dead for “…(our acquittal), [making our account balance and absolving us from all guilt before God].” When you come to Jesus, He makes you free from every kind of bondage: “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed” (John 8:36). Hallelujah!

PRAYER / CONFESSION

Dear Father, I thank you for my new life in Christ; your divine nature in me has made me a master over circumstances, with dominion over the systems of this world. I serve you always with joy unspeakable and full of glory, unencumbered by sin or reproach! Thank you for making me righteous, holy and irreproachable in your sight, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
