Artisha Bolding is the founder of T-Bold Media Group. She sat down with me and allowed me to dig around in her personal story of a health crisis that eventually landed her in the intensive care unit and in a coma.
She shared how some significant changes in her life created stress and anxiety and what began as a cough was also the beginning of her health decline. She’d never had a hospital stay, didn’t have a primary care physician, and even had trouble finding her insurance card as she entered into a journey that would include countless doctor visits, medications and hospital stays, eventually ending up in the ICU. During a portion of her ICU (Intensive Care Unit) stay, she was in a coma.
While in the hospital, she prayed to be out of her misery and what she meant by that was that she wanted to be with Jesus in heaven. At one point, throughout her health struggle, she feels the life draining out of her body, she feels her breath leaving her. God gives her a glimpse of heaven and she is prepared to meet Him and then it seems the door is shut, because whenever she comes into consciousness, she’s still here, present in this life.
Artisha calls herself a pew baby, someone who has been raised in the church, but from my own personal reflection, even though we point our children to the Lord, there will come a time in their lives when crisis hits and when they call out to the God that we have pointed them to, he must be real to them in order to move from their ears of hearing about this good God, to their heart of knowing that he is indeed who He says he is
Listen to find out why Artisha defines such an incredibly painful time in her life as a divine pause. You’ll discover how it encouraged her to walk boldly into her purpose, why gratitude is so important to her and the reason she makes it her life mission to point others to the heart of God.
