Kungenteka utiva njenga-Sheila lohlala eMelika. Njengobe akhulela emndenini lokholwa kakhulu, watsi: “Kusukela ngisemncane bengimtsandza Nkulunkulu ngobe unguMdali wetfu. Nobe kunjalo, bengingativa ngisondzelene naye. Bengati kutsi uyangibona, kodvwa ungibukela khashane. Bengingacabangi kutsi uyangenyanya, bengiphindze ngingakholelwa nekutsi uyangitsandza.” Kungani Sheila bekangabata kutsi Nkulunkulu uyamtsandza?
