“You are the light of the world! That special light of the Lord that lives within you, you are that light. In a world that often dims its glow, you rise above, letting your brilliance show. Not just a spark, but a steady flame, lighting rooms before they even knew your name General, Anele Mdoda @zintathu.”
He continued with even more praise, saying, “You’ve always been the dawn in the darkest hour, soft as grace, yet fierce with power and boldness. A voice that carries truth and might, wrapped in your infectious laughter, love, and light. God’s own lamp, uniquely designed, to lead, to lift, to heal, to shine.”
Earlier, on his Instagram Story, Bonelela posted a sweet childhood photo of Anele and added, “May the Lord lift you higher than your dreams can reach, plant your feet in rooms where only greatness can preach. Your voice, your fire, your fearless tame, deserve crowns, mountains, and legacy’s name. Together my loving.”
