He keiki ma ka lima o kona makuahine ... (ʻike ʻole ka mea pena kiʻi)
ʻAE, pono kaua loaʻa ka hauʻoli mawaena o keia pouli e ku nei. He hua ia o ka ʻUhane Hemolele, a no laila, aia mau i ka hale pule. Eia nō naʻe, kūlohelohe ka makaʻu i ka lilo ʻana o kahi palekana, a makaʻu paha i ka hoʻomaʻau a me ka make ʻana. ʻIke nui ʻo Iesū i kēia kūlana kanaka i ka hou ʻana i ka kulu koko. Aka, ua hoouna mai ke Akua i anela nana e hooikaika ia ia, a ua paniia ko Iesu makau e ka malu malie.
Eia ke aʻa o ka lāʻau e hua ana i ka hua o ka hauʻoli. Nui haalele i ke Akua.
ʻO ka mea makaʻu iā Iēhova ʻaʻole ia he makaʻu. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Vatican City, Iune 22, 2008; ʻO Zenit.org
KA WELIWELI OLE
I kahi hoʻomohala nui i kēia punawai, ka pāpāho honua ua hoʻomaka e kūkākūkā i ka manaʻo o ka waihona kālā ʻana a me ke kūʻai ʻana i ʻāina no ka pilikia hoʻokele waiwai e hiki mai ana. Hoʻokumu ʻia ia i ka makaʻu maoli, akā pinepine ʻole i ka hilinaʻi ʻole i ka mālama a ke Akua, a no laila, ʻo ka pane ke ʻike lākou e lawe i nā mea i kā lākou lima iho.
ʻO ka 'me ka makaʻu ʻole i ke Akua' ua like ia me ka waiho ʻana iā mākou iho i kāna wahi, ke manaʻo nei iā mākou iho he mau haku no ka maikaʻi a me ka hewa, o ke ola a me ka make —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Vatican City, Iune 22, 2008; ʻO Zenit.org
He aha ka pane Karistiano i kēia Storm i kēia manawa? Manaʻo wau ʻaʻole ka pane i ka "kuhi ʻana i nā mea" a i ʻole i ka mālama ʻana iā ʻoe iho, akā hoʻopukapuka.
E ka makua, inā makemake ʻoe, e lawe aku i kēia kīʻaha mai oʻu aku nei; ʻaʻole naʻe koʻu makemake akā e hoʻokō ʻia kou. (Luka 22:42)
I kēia haʻalele ʻana hele mai ka "ʻānela o ka ikaika" e pono ai i kēlā me kēia o mākou. I kēia kau ʻana ma luna o ka poʻohiwi o ke Akua ma ka ʻaoʻao o kāna waha, e lohe mākou i ka hawanawana ʻana o ka mea e pono ai a me ka mea ʻole, a ka mea naʻauao a me nā mea kūpono ʻole.
ʻO ka makaʻu iā Iēhova ka hoʻomaka o ka naʻauao. (Prov 9:10)
ʻO ka mea hopohopo i ke Akua i loko o ka palekana o kahi keiki i nā lima o kona makuahine: ʻO ka mea makaʻu i ke Akua e mālie a i waena o nā ʻino, no ka mea, ʻo ke Akua, e like me kā Iesu i hōʻike mai ai iā mākou, he Makua i piha i ke aloha a ka maikaʻi. ʻAʻole makaʻu ka mea aloha i ke Akua. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Vatican City, Iune 22, 2008; ʻO Zenit.org
AIA NEI NEI
ʻO kēia ke kumu, e nā hoahānau a me nā kaikaina, ke noi aku nei au iā ʻoe e mahi i kahi pilina me Iesū i loko o ka Sakarameta Hoʻomaikaʻi. Maanei ʻike mākou ʻaʻole mamao loa ʻo ia ma hope o nā mea āpau. ʻOiai paha he lōʻihi ke ola e loaʻa ai kahi hālāwai me kahi pelekikena a i ʻole ka Makua Hemolele, ʻaʻole pēlā me ka Mōʻī o nā mōʻī e noho ana ma laila no ʻoe i kēlā me kēia manawa o ka lā. Kakaikahi, ʻoiai i ka hale pule, e hoʻomaopopo i nā lokomaikaʻi hiki ʻole ke kali iā mākou ma laila ma kona mau wāwae. Inā hiki iā mākou ke ʻike iki i ke ao ʻānela, ʻike mākou i nā ʻānela e kūlou mau ana i mua o ka Halelewa i loko o kā mākou mau hale pule ʻole, a hoʻoneʻe ʻia mākou e noho manawa me ia ma laila. E hoʻokokoke iā Iesū a laila me nā maka o ka hilinaʻi, ʻoiai kou mau manaʻo a me nā mea a kou manaʻo e haʻi ai iā ʻoe. E hoʻokokoke aku iā ia me ka hoʻohanohano, weliweli — a maikaʻi loa makaʻu iā Iēhova. Ma laila ʻoe e kau ai i kēlā me kēia makana no kēlā me kēia pono, no kēia manawa a i ka wā e hiki mai.
I ka hele ʻana mai i ona lā i ka Mass a i ka Tabernacle paha - a i ʻole aia ʻoe ma ka home, e hui ana iā ia i ka halelewa o kou puʻuwai ma o ka pule ʻana - hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaha i mua o kona alo i kahi ala maʻalahi. ʻAʻole ia he manaʻo e hoʻopau koke ka makaʻu kanaka, e like me kā Iesū pule ʻana ʻekolu manawa i kāna pule o ka haʻalele ʻana i ka Māla ma mua o ka hoʻouna ʻia ʻana o ka ʻānela iā ia. I kekahi manawa, inā ʻaʻole ka nui o nā manawa, pono ʻoe e hoʻomanawanui, ke ala e eli ai kahi mea miner ma o nā papa o ka lepo a me ka pālolo a me ka pōhaku a hiki i kona hōʻea ʻana i kahi aa momona o ke gula. A ma luna o nā mea āpau, e hōʻoki i ka hakakā ʻana me nā mea ma mua o kou ikaika, a haʻalele iā ʻoe iho i ka hoʻolālā huna a ke Akua i hōʻike ʻia iā ʻoe ma ke ʻano o ke Keʻa:
Hilinaʻi iā Iēhova me kou naʻau a pau, mai hilinaʻi i kou ʻike iho. (Nānā 3: 5)
Haʻalele iā ʻoe iho i kona hāmau. E haʻalele iā ʻoe iho i ka ʻike ʻole. E haʻalele iā ʻoe iho i ka mea pohihihi o ka ʻino e kū pono ana iā ʻoe me he mea lā ʻaʻole i ʻike mai ke Akua. Akā ʻike ʻo ia. ʻIke ʻo ia i nā mea āpau, e like me ke alahou e hiki mai ana iā ʻoe inā ʻoe e ʻapo i kāu Passion ponoʻī.
INTIMACY ME KE AKUA
Hoʻomau ka mea kākau kapu:
… Ka ʻike o ka Mea Hemolele ka hoʻomaopopo. (Palu 9:10)
ʻO ka ʻike i ʻōlelo ʻia ma aneʻi ʻaʻole ia nā ʻike e pili ana i ke Akua, akā kahi ʻike pili i kona aloha. He ʻike i hānau ʻia i loko o ka puʻuwai koloana i loko o nā lima o kahi ʻē aʻe, ke ala e hāʻawi ai ka wahine i kāna kāne kāne e kanu i loko ona ka hua o ke ola. ʻO ka hua a ke Akua i kanu ai i loko o ko kākou puʻuwai, ʻo ia ke aloha, kāna ʻōlelo. He a ʻike o ka mea palena ʻole e alakaʻi iā ia iho i ka ʻike o ka palena palena, kahi ʻike mana o nā mea āpau. Akā ʻaʻole hele mai ia me ka haʻahaʻa. Hiki wale mai ia i ka moe ʻana i luna o ka moena male o ke Keʻa, i kēlā me kēia manawa, e waiho ana i nā kui o ka ʻehaʻeha e hou iā ʻoe me ka hakakā ʻole, ke ʻōlelo nei ʻoe i kou Aloha, "ʻAe, e ke Akua. Hilinaʻi wau iā ʻoe i kēia manawa i kēia ʻehaʻeha. " Mai kēia haʻalele hemolele ʻana, e lī ana ka līlia o ka maluhia a me ka hauʻoli.
ʻAʻole makaʻu ka mea aloha i ke Akua.
ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i kēia manawa e hoʻouna mai ana ke Akua i ʻānela o ka ikaika i kēia mau manawa o ka Great Storm - kahi kāne i ʻaʻahu keʻokeʻo, e hāpai ana i ke koʻokoʻo o Petero?
"ʻIke [ka mea manaʻoʻiʻo] he noʻonoʻo ʻole ka hewa a ʻaʻohe o kāna huaʻōlelo hope loa, a ʻo Kristo wale nō ka Haku o ka honua a me ke ola, ka Huaʻōlelo a ke Akua. Ua ʻike ʻo ia ua aloha ʻo Keristiano iā mākou a hiki i ka manawa o ka mōhai ʻana iā ia iho, e make ana ma ke Keʻa no ko mākou ola. ʻO ka nui o ko mākou ulu ʻana i kēia pilina me ke Akua, hānai ʻia me ke aloha, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi e lanakila i nā ʻano makaʻu āpau. -—POPE BENEDICT XVI, Vatican City, Iune 22, 2008; ʻO Zenit.org
