I have seen Miracles in my Life | Dr. Ronnie Masilela

[@phumezaladyp1452]

Thanks Bhuti David for bringing this Legend😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@donaldngwira]

Hi David, just to let you know I am a medical doctor myself and one of the things that influenced me to pursue this field was my mother's stories about Dr Robertson's professionalism in his Rustenburg Private practice. My mother used to be a domestic worker but just hearing her stories motivated me to follow a career in Medicine. Thank God for Doctors like Dr Robertson and Dr Masilela. God bless you.

[@minenhlekhoza5581]

Wow ❤

[@noreenm5018]

Thanks to you as well Dr Donaldngwira. Doctors are really servants of the lord. We appreciate you.

[@JabulisileMangwane]

Thank you for sharing your mom's experience and your influence in your career path with us Dr Ngwira always remember we appreciate you valuable time you put in your chosen careers it's not easy to study I respect both the hustlers/business people and academics nothing is easy in this life such stories really touch some us beyond our comprehension.

Dr. Ronnie Masilela is a great story teller, all the time i keep having pictures in my mind of the situations he is talking about. yet i was not even born at the time. Thank you King David

[@kingdavidstudio1]

Well said!

[@Lala_M1786]

Right...he painted it so well especially when talking about his granpa. I am not even South african but i was able to visualise every place he spoke about.

[@ReshoketsweMthombeni]

Thank you, for this interview David. I am 29 years old, I dropped out of UNI after 2nd year. I felt I am too old to go back even though my soul has been yearning to be a full time student again. I have managed to attain other qualifications studying part time but I yearn to finish the degree I never finished and to experience being a full time student. I am truly inspired. Thank you, Dr Masilela❤️

[@etvscandalfanpage2011]

Feeling the same I'm 32, you re still young you can do it. I'm planning to go back next year. Dr Masilela is an inspiration for all of us who thinks it late. It's the noise out there that makes us to feel that way. Listen to yourself and fulfill your dreams ❤️

[@sphilekhanyeza7610]

Please go do that degree I am persuing mine next year B com

[@hlohomakwelo9847]

Go finish up. I dropped out at age 18 in my third year becuase I was to become a father. I picked up the degree 9 years later, full time. Redid the 3rd year and did my 4th year. I was 29 when I graduated. Its never too late

[@Football-uk6fl]

Never a stranger's story got me in tears like this. wooow, 4 hours and that's just how long the hills he went through his youth age can be explained. true documentation of legendary stories, he is in a moment, the memory he has. you can tell how in the moment he was with his struggles.

[@silvestakhoza8992]

I cant help but cry when i visualise Baba Masilela's story. soo inspirational.

[@blinkym21]

For me its the pure raw emotions of this story…Dr Masilela still feels everything so deeply and thats the beauty of this story❤…. My take aways: May we never write anyone off in this life time. What God has set apart can not be changed by men. Our dreams are valid.

[@kingdavidstudio1]

Well said. Thank you

[@sibiyan52]

David, you are bringing us top drawer stuff

[@nondumisomyataza7029]

In my next book, I'll probably mention this episode. Words cannot describe how inspired I am. Dr. Masilela's story highlights just how many hurdles life has for us, that just when you think you have arrived, life throws another obstacle. But in all that, Dr. Masilela's story also highlights how much we should just never give up for as long as we have breath. As for Dr. Robinson, I wish we all had such an angel and if we do, God might open our eyes so that we realise the angels He has placed in our lives. Thank you Mr Mashabela for this podcast ❤

[@MelloBelloPhotoStudio]

I have been through so much in life but i keep on fighting because i know that God is creating a good story like this for me.

[@eugeniamanana9424]

By looking at Dr Masilela"s face I tried to remember where I knew him from, until he spoke, I recognised his voice. He used to visit NPSL offices where I worked in the 80s. He was a sports representative for SABC. For me to remember his voice is because we used to chat and had many little interesting stories to tell. Thank you Mashabela

[@kingdavidstudio1]

Hola 👊🏾👊🏾👍🏾

[@eugeniamanana9424]

Dear The King, your interviews are something else, 3hrs of focus without a wink. Very interesting people all the time. Thank you

When your time on earth is done, and you have fulfilled your purpose, men and beasts alike shall stand on top of your grave and sing praises and say, here lies a man!

I remember the time I was working at Absa the Glen as a security this old man won't left the branch without coming and talk to me we laugh all the time we meet and he will give R50 all the time he see me .I cry when I listen to his story he went through a lot am sorry Mr Masilela I never know that you went through such horrible life am sorry

[@SphehDiaz90]

This has to be the best episode so far. Thanks Bra Dave..

[@kingdavidstudio1]

Thank you very much

[@nokophofele9740]

As someone who was born and bred in the villages, raised by grandparents... i relate 101% with Dr Masilela's life story. My take from this is that "Perseverance is really a mother of success. " and again when the time is right, God will make it happen.

[@leratomatlala9716]

All the challenges he faced along the way and still persevered, this interview is everything I needed to hear.

[@zammy28]

Thank you Mashabela for bringing uNtate Masilela, I learnt so much about the real impacts of forced removals and the Riots on ordinary lives.

I needed to hear this - i do not think it was a coincidence that it happened on the 11:11 on the 01/11. There have been so many & much odds in my life. Time seems to be running out. But today, my strength jas been renewed.

I know God has a greater plan for me💫

[@KwaziButhelezi-p2p]

I used to listen to him and besides his exceptional soccer commentary, he would play PJ Powers-There's an answer and I was glued on the radio. This one time when he was doing ZIYADUMA EGOLI,he tried to put on the cassette for the Reverend who was recorded earlier to pray for the end of the day.The cassette did not play...he just said on air ,let me pray.....Wow....what a prayer..

[@AndiswaMbatha701]

I've always maintained that there is no way I will watch anything over an hour but Mashabela will always have my time. Such a great episode ❤

[@bhongomwanda3223]

A thesis about a God who moves through the unexpected, especially if we apply more faith and hammer away, is what this interview has been for me. Most stories I know of from the Bible are merely about faith and pressing on. " The bleeding woman in Luke 8, The story of Moses, etc. Like these people from the bible , Dr. Masilela had to exert more faith and push through. This is another miraculous story that should be added to those of the Bible. I'm so grateful I listened, grateful for the spiritual lessons.

[@delisilenhlapho3630]

This was so therapeutic on so many levels...more than a story of success it was a past revisitation and a realization how God journeys with us without knowing it. I had a proper crying session after a long time.❤

[@wisemanmpunzana7613]

When I was a young Primary School going boy we used to sit around the radio and listen to Dr Ronnie Masilela broadcasting soccer games in his own special way that inspired many of us. However, I must point out that I never knew the hurdles, struggles, pains and tribulations he endured in order to see his dream coming thru. This is a story of rejection, hope and triumph against all odds. The story that displays the hidden and almighty power of God in ways that no man can understand.It's a story that I, as a teacher , radio presenter and pastor, very much relate to in a number of ways. I just can't hold back the tears 😭😭😭😭 Thank you my brother David Mashabela. It's my earnest wish to meet you in person one day and I'm one of your ardent listeners on your Radio 2000 show.
