At the tender age of 12, Tlhabologang Machobane started encountering multiple life challenges which changed her life. As young as she was, she experienced undesirable family living conditions while being raised by her parents, along with her seven siblings.

Without blaming her parents for lack of proper welfare, the Bokaa-born and bred strove to reach out to God and with vast faith in Him, she eventually got inspired by the Word of God to defy the odds. She chose to dedicate all her life to serving God. In what provoked her thoughts deeply to choose light over darkness, Machobane got inspired by the scripture in the book of Matthew 13:8, and she never looked back and through divine interventions, she grew up to become a very strong and focused young woman.

“This is evidence that when you deny yourself certain pleasures on this earth and focus on Jesus Christ, our Saviour, He will fight your battles, and that is what I chose to experience,” she shared. Tlhabologang also said she then lived a life that over time attracted her family to also develop an interest in accepting Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Saviour. She says the rest of the family has been supportive at heart and would never by any chance wish to see any one of them experiencing the hardships she encountered in her journey of life.
