Summary
SummaryππΎββοΈ Iβm Henry Olongaβonce the fiery fast-bowler who helped Zimbabwe win its first Test, now a follower of Jesus who loves to sing His praise. ππΎ Born in Zambia, raised across Kenya and Zimbabwe, sport was my languageβcricket, rugby, track. At 16 a camp preacherβs words hit home; I invited Christ into my heart. βοΈ π Years later a Sri-Lankan rip-tide dragged me under. βGod, help!β I gasped. A teammate rowed out just in time. π Back home armed thugs hijacked my car. Nose bleeding, gun at my head, I prayed again. They suddenly let me go. π In 2003 I protested Mugabeβs tyranny with a black armband; a warrant followed. South-Africa-bound qualification required rainβand a cyclone drifted 500 mi to Bulawayo, washing the match out and opening my escape route. βοΈ Today I tell businessmen and dreamers alike: come, drink the water of life. Jesus rescued me on the field, in the ocean, on a dark streetβHeβll rescue you too! π
