AS pono ke kino i ka meaʻai no ka ikehu, no laila pono ka ʻuhane i ka meaʻai ʻuhane e piʻi i ka Kuahiwi o ka Manaʻoʻiʻo. He mea nui ka meaʻai i ke kino e like me ka hanu. Akā pehea ka ʻuhane?
AIODU KANU
Mai ka Catechism:
ʻO ka pule ke ola o ka puʻuwai hou. —CCC, n.2697
Inā ʻo ka pule ke ola o ka puʻuwai hou, a laila ʻo ka make o ka naʻau hou ka pule ʻole—E like me ka nele o ka meaʻai i ka wī o ke kino. Hōʻike kēia i ke kumu o ka hapa nui o mākou o nā Katolika ʻaʻole e piʻi i ka mauna, ʻaʻole ulu i ka hemolele a me ka maikaʻi. Hele mākou i Mass i kēlā me kēia Lāpule, hāʻule ʻelua kālā i ka hīnaʻi, a poina e pili ana i ke Akua i ke koena o ka pule. ʻO ka ʻuhane, nele i ka hānai ʻuhane, hoʻomaka e make.
Makemake ka Makua a pilina pilikino me mākou, kāna poʻe keiki. Akā ʻoi aku ka pili pilikino ma mua o ka noi ʻana i ke Akua i loko o kou puʻuwai ...
… Pule is ka mea e ola ana pili o nā keiki a ke Akua me ko lākou Makua ... -CCC, n.2565
ʻO ka pule ʻO ia ka pilina pilikino me ke Akua! ʻAʻohe pule? ʻAʻohe pilina.
KA ENELANI ME KE ALOHA
I nā manawa pinepine, ʻike mākou i ka pule ma ke ʻano he hana, a i ka hapanui paha, kahi hana kūpono. He mamao loa ia, ʻoi aku.
ʻO ka pule ka hālāwai a ko ke Akua make wai me mākou. Make wai ke Akua i make wai mākou nona. –CCC, n. 2560
Ke makewai nei ke Akua i kou aloha! Ke kūlou pū nei nā ʻānela i mua o kēia mea pohihihi, ka mea pohihihi a ke Akua palena ʻole i ke aloha me kāna hana palena pau. Ke waiho nei ka pule i nā huaʻōlelo a ko mākou ʻuhane i make wai ai: aloha… Aloha! He aloha ke Akua! Ke make wai nei mākou i ke Akua, ʻike paha mākou ʻaʻole paha. I ka manawa e ʻike wau ua aloha ʻo ia iaʻu me kona ola a ʻaʻole e hoʻihoʻi i kēlā aloha, a laila hiki iaʻu ke hoʻomaka e kamaʻilio me ia no ka mea ʻaʻole wau e makaʻu iā ia. Kēia ke hilinaʻi hoʻololi i ka ʻōlelo o ka pule (no laila ua kapa ʻia ʻo "Mountain of Faith"). ʻAʻole ia he mea hou i ka hana hou ʻana i nā huaʻōlō a i ʻole ke heluhelu ʻana i nā ʻatikala poetic ... lilo i neʻe o ka puʻuwai, kahi hui o nā puʻuwai, make wai hoʻomāʻona make wai.
ʻAe, makemake ke Akua iā ʻoe pule me ka puʻuwai. E kamaʻilio pū me ia e like me kāu e kamaʻilio ai me kāu hoa. O kēia kona kono:
Ua kāhea aku wau iā ʻoe e nā hoaaloha ... ʻaʻole ʻoe he kauā hou, akā he keiki. (Ioane 15:15; Gal 4: 7)
Pule, wahi a St. Teresa o Avila,
… He mahele kokoke ma waena o nā hoa aloha ʻelua. ʻO ke kumu o ka lawe manawa pinepine ʻana e noho hoʻokahi me ia e aloha mai iā mākou.
Pule NO KA PUUWAI
Ke pule nei ʻoe mai ka puʻuwai aku, ke wehe nei ʻoe iā ʻoe iho i ka ʻUhane Hemolele nāna is ke aloha o ke Akua nona ʻoe e pōloli nei a make wai ai. E like me ka hiki ʻole iā ʻoe ke ʻai i ka meaʻai me ka wehe ʻole o kou waha, pono ʻoe e hāmama i kou puʻuwai i mea e loaʻa ai ka mana a me nā lokomaikaʻi o ka ʻUhane Hemolele e pono ai e piʻi i ka mauna ʻo Faith.
Hele ka pule i ka lokomaikaʻi a mākou e pono ai… -CCC, n.2010
Hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i kēia manawa i ka mea nui e lilo i ʻuhane pule? Pule mai ka puʻuwai, a ke pule nei ʻoe i ke ala kūpono. Pule pinepine, a aʻo ʻia ʻoe e pule mau.
No laila he aha kāu mea e kali ai? E hoʻopau i kāu kamepiula, e hele i kou keʻena i loko, a pule.
Ke kali nei ʻo ia ʻo Ke Aloha.
