The Full Story
This is the story of how Yhwh's Heart Productions came into being. My name is Tyron S. James and I was born on the Island of Trinidad in the West Indies in 1963. You can say that I am the vessel the Most High used to start this Ministry.
However the part played by my wife and daughter cannot be understated. My wife and I have been married for 28 years. Many of those years we were able to deal with our problems and challenges with a faithfulness to each other that made me feel truly blessed. Our journey was anything but easy though. Sometimes I feel that they, my wife and daughter, are hell-bent on destroying everything that the Most High, YAHWEH, is doing.
But Yahshua promises that things will get better regardless of what I may be seeing and hearing. It is a journey of faith. A long drawn out one. Ever since I have known myself I suffered from a nervous problem. Which I would have inherited from my grandmother on my mother's side. When I was nineteen, just after leaving school, it started to take a hold on me leading to me leaving my job and subsequently becoming mentally incapacitated.
I remembered staying in my mother's apartment for two years straight. Not bathing and rarely interacting with the family. I did not sleep for many months. this was in the year 1984. My mother and eldest sister probably thought that one day I would snap out of it. But it continued for a whole two years until 1985 when my sister, who was a nurse, decided that I should see one of the doctors in the psychiatric ward. And that was when I started taking medication for what I was diagnosed with, namely, schizophrenia.
Whether that was a proper diagnosis is debateable as another doctor much later said it could be bipolar.
To describe what it was like when I was troubled by the illness is like my brain would shut down. My ability to think became dysfunctional. I lost the ability to sleep on my own and I felt irritable.
So, I joined the psychiatric clinic in the General Hospital. This was in the last half of 1985. I was warded in ward 8 at least six times between 1985 and 1995. These were depressing years but I was a believer in Jesus Christ at the time and this faith was responsible for me not giving up hope in my
creator. But in 1995, after my last breakdown in January of that year, I decided that I had had enough of that life.
My life had meandered along until December 1992, I was helping at St. Vincent De Paul when I was approached by a young lady who took out some pictures and showed it to me. Even though in person she looked stressed out, in the pictures she looked absolutely gorgeous. I remembered that she told me her name was Lolila. That was the first time I saw what was to turn out to be the woman who would be the mainstay in my life up to this very day.
The meeting was very brief and in the next three months I did not think about her at all. Then one day while walking in the hospital I caught a glimpse of her on the ward that I had spent so much time. So I went up to her and said, Lolila, and she recognised me almost immediately. It was like time stood still. I was thinking that this could be the woman of my dreams. But then I had to ask her, Well what are you doing here? I can't remember the answer she gave but the conversation flowed like it was destiny.
I visited her everyday after that I was in love with a woman who had some issues like I did and over the 31 years that I have known her despite our problems I know it was a match made in Heaven.
So I started looking for employment. While at the Occupational Therapy in ward 8 I had learnt how to make ceramic earrings and other jewelry. So I started a jewelry business, if we can call it that. It was a lot of hard work, not only making the jewelry myself, but walking around to businesses and everywhere that I can get a sale.
Sometime after that I enlisted my brother, Russell, into the business. He was severely handicapped by a rare illness called Spondilitis. But his mind was sharp and he was an artist by trade. For a while the business grew. We made ceramic earrings, pendants, lucky seed earrings, tabari seed earrings and a couple other seed earings as well. I was working like twelve hours a day for what I considered as not enough compensation. My brother whose condition made him immobile could not help with the actual selling of the stuff meant that I had to bear all that burden of the sales management.
In addition to this he was always in need which meant that we were using up the profits gained to assist in his unfortunate circumstances. So after stressing myself out trying to make it work. I finally had to accept that it was too much for me and I ended the business.
Even though that business ended I had applied to enter the teaching service two years before and I was elated when I received a call to join as an OJT in July of 1995. Meanwhile my relationship with Lolila was sort of topsy-turvy we were on at one time and then we were off at other times. But in September of 1995, we got together and we married on December the 24th. Married to Lolila is like a bed of roses. There are roses and thorns. I have known the two extremes with her overwhelming joy and contentment and severe depression. The reasons for saying so are too numerous to mention here.
So Lolila and I started our marriage together with me down at the bottom of the teaching ladder and she working in a supermarket. It took a bit of getting used to so much so that we had a mini separation in April of the following year. But when we got back together we were more stable.
We attended the Pentecostal Cathedral on Duke Street in Port-of-Spain for about two years. It was an alright experience for me because I was getting time to fellowship with the brethren that I liked and Pastor Rondon was fairly well grounded in the word. But Lolila was having a different experience. She kept complaining that some of the brethren there were saying mean things to her. And the men were rude to her. So when she decided to stop attending services I thought it better to listen to her.
In order to understand the situation better one has to know the history of the life of Lolila Annette James. She had a very turbulent upbringing from the time she came forth from the womb. Her genetical make-up has made the situation even worse. The fifth of twelve children for her mother and she does not know where she is for her father. Lolila gives a rundown of how her life unfolded in her lifestory on the YHWH's Heart Productions (YHP) The Have Faith in YAHWEH Program with Tyron S. James - Lolila James Tells All - Episode 6.
We have been married for twenty-eight years now. The difficult journey has only served to make me stronger. I am not the man that I was thirty years ago. The trials and tribulations do not intimidate me as much as they did then. Sometimes it appears that the people around me are getting worse. And in some ways I myself am getting worse. But then I put things in perspective. All the victories I've enjoyed, the fruit that I have seen in myself is proof that Yahshua is at work in my life. From the results of my struggles and perseverance have arisen this work: YHWH's Heart Productions (YHP) website, The Songs Inspired By YHWH Youtube Channel, The Tyron S. James Youtube Channel.On the 8th February, 2024, Yahshua healed me of the mental illness that has troubled me for 40+ years. I no longer feel the need to take drugs, My mind is clear and I am at peace with myself.
This ministry is in the business of spreading the Good News of Messiah Yahshua through the avenue of Good News music, Videos featuring songs and the spoken words of YHWH. The words of Almighty YAHWEH as revealed in the Holy Scripture.
