Actress Gabisile Tshabalala has made a conscious decision to focus only on the word of God as an expecting mama during this coronavirus lockdown and she’s explained why she’s had to do that for her peace of mind.
The actress – who is due to give birth in the next couple of weeks – told TshisaLIVE that with all the negativity and fearmongering going on in the media and social media with regards to Covid-19, she’s had to choose what she pays attention to so as not to stress herself out.
“I’m not really as affected by this global pandemic, as I perhaps should be. But that is because I have been feeding myself more of the word of God, than the words that we are hearing outside. I am not saying that this thing doesn’t exist, because it does, but I am more of a believer in Christ than anything else.
“The word of God says faith comes from what we hear, so I make sure that I listen to the word of God instead of what the world is saying. Because what the world is doing is just instilling fear and so much anxiety. There’s negativity all the time, so I don’t want to give it power by always speaking and thinking about it.”Gabi said the one struggle she’s had is cravings for fast foods, which aren’t available because of the lockdown. Other than that, the actress explained that she’s chosen to focus on the positive sides of lockdown, like enjoying quality time with her hubby and kids.
She added that she has been enjoying being pregnant and that her hubby’s support is unrivalled.
“The journey has been so amazing, I mean having a whole human being grow inside of you can only mean God is alive. I know I don’t have the power to do all of this. All I do is eat and breathe, and that’s it but this baby just grows inside of me. It’s been amazing for my husband and I. He has been so supportive, through everything … the cravings, the back pain, everything.”
Gabi has been having lots of fun on TikTok too.
