Zimbabwe's military leaders have seized control of the impoverished southern African nation ,  placing veteran leader Robert Mugabe under house arrest and deploying tanks to the streets of the capital, Harare. The president of neighboring South Africa, Jacob Zuma, said 93-year-old Mugabe -- the world's oldest living leader -- was unable to leave his home. Troops were reportedly stationed at the country's parliament and presidential palace. In a dramatic televised statement in the early hours of Wednesday morning, an army spokesman denied that a military takeover was underway. But the situation bore all the hallmarks of a coup: The military was in control of state TV   in Harare, there was a significant military presence at the international airport, and Mugabe has not been seen in public.

Many others have lost the battle to cancer and other illnesses. Many are still fighting. You never know when your time will be up, so do not waste another minute. It is also a testimony about the goodness of God. I think...
