LENTEN YOBWERETSEDWA
tsiku 13
APO ndi mawu akusangalatsa mumtima mwanga lero: woyenda. Kodi woyendayenda ndi ndani, kapena makamaka, woyendayenda wauzimu? Apa, sindikunena za m'modzi wongocheza chabe. M'malo mwake woyang'anira ndi amene amapita kukafunafuna china chake, kapena kani, cha Wina.
Lero, ndikumva Dona Wathu akukuyitanani inu ndi ine kuti tivomereze malingalirowa, kuti tikhale amwendamnjira owona mdziko lapansi. Kodi izi zikuwoneka bwanji? Amadziwa bwino, chifukwa mwana wake anali chimodzimodzi.
Mlembi wina anayandikira nati kwa Iye, "Aphunzitsi, ndikutsatirani kulikonse komwe mungapite." Yesu anamuyankha kuti: “Nkhandwe zili ndi mapanga awo ndipo mbalame zam'mlengalenga zili ndi zisa, koma Mwana wa Munthu alibe malo oti apumule mutu wake.” Mmodzi wa akuphunzira ake adanena kwa Iye, Ambuye, mundilole ine ndiyambe ndapita kuyika maliro a atate wanga. Koma Yesu anamuyankha kuti, “Nditsate, + uwalole akufa ayike akufa awo.” (Mat. 8: 19-22)
Yesu akunena kuti, ngati ukufuna kukhala wotsatira wanga, ndiye kuti sungakhazikike padziko lapansi; iwe sungagwiritsitse icho chimene chikudutsa; Simungathe kutumikira Mulungu ndi Chuma nthawi imodzi. Chifukwa "udana ndi mmodzi, ndi kukonda winayo, kapena adzipereka kwa wina, ndi kunyoza winayo."[1]onani. Mateyu 6: 24
Ndipo wina adati, Ndikutsatani Inu, Ambuye, koma mundilole ndikasanzike banja langa kunyumba. Kwa iye Yesu adati, "Palibe amene agwira pulawo ndikuyang'ana zotsalira sayenera ufumu wa Mulungu." (Mat. 9: 61-62)
Zomwe Yesu akunena ndizopambana: kuti wophunzira weniweni ayenera kusiya chirichonse m'njira yakuti mtima sungagawanike. Izi sizinafotokozedwe momveka bwino kuposa momwe Yesu anati:
Ngati wina abwera kwa ine osada abambo ake ndi amayi ake, mkazi ndi ana, abale ndi alongo, ngakhale moyo wake womwe, sangakhale wophunzira wanga. (Luka 14:26)
Tsopano, Iye sakutipempha kuti tizinyansidwa mwankhanza ndi mabanja athu. M'malo mwake, Yesu akutiwonetsa kuti njira kukonda abale athu, kukonda adani athu, kukonda osauka ndi moyo uliwonse womwe tingakumane nawo… ndiko kuyamba kukonda Mulungu ndi mtima wathu wonse, moyo wathu wonse, ndi mphamvu zathu zonse. Pakuti Mulungu ndiye chikondi; ndipo ndi Iye yekha amene angachiritse bala la uchimo woyambirira — chilondacho pamene Adamu ndi Hava adagawanitsa mitima yawo, kudzipatulira okha kwa Mlengi wawo, motero kubweretsa imfa ndi kugawikana pa dziko. O, ndi lowopsa bwanji bala! Ndipo ngati mukukaikira izi, yang'anani pa mtanda masiku ano ndikuwona Chithandizo chomwe chinali chofunikira kuti atseke.
Pali chithunzi chodziwika bwino chomwe alaliki ena amagwiritsa ntchito pofotokoza za chipulumutso. Ndiwo wa mtanda womwe wagona phompho, wolumikiza miyala iwiri. Nsembe ya Yesu idagonjetsa phompho la uchimo ndi imfa, popatsa munthu njira yobwererera kwa Mulungu ndi moyo wosatha. Koma izi ndi zomwe Yesu akutiphunzitsa ife mu ndime za Uthenga Wabwino izi: mlatho, Mtanda, ndi mphatso. Mphatso yoyera. Ndipo Ubatizo umatiyika ife kumayambiriro kwa mlatho. Koma tiyenera kupitilirabe, ndipo titha kuchita izi, Yesu akutero, ndi mtima wosagawanika, mtima wamwendamnjira. Ndikumva Ambuye wathu akunena kuti:
Muyenera kukhala mlendo tsopano kuti mukhale wophunzira. Musatenge kanthu ka pa ulendo koma ndodo yokha; musadye chakudya, kapena thumba, kapena ndalama;… ”(Onaninso Marko 6: 8). Chifuniro changa ndicho chakudya chanu; Nzeru yanga, chakudya chako; Kupereka kwanga, thandizo lanu. Funani choyamba ufumu wa Atate Wanga ndi chilungamo Chake, ndipo zonse zidzawonjezedwa kwa inu. Inde, aliyense wa inu amene sataya zonse ali nazo sangakhale wophunzira wanga (Luka 14: 33).
Inde, abale ndi alongo, Uthenga Wabwino ndiwosasintha! Tikukuitanidwira mu kenosis, kudzichotsera tokha kuti tikhale odzazidwa ndi Mulungu, amene ndiye chikondi. “Goli langa liri lofewa, ndi katundu wanga ali wopepuka”, anatero Yesu. [2]onani. Mateyu 11: 30 Zowonadi, mzimu wamwendamnjira, womasulidwa ku zinthu zakudziko, zomata, ndi tchimo ndiye kuti amatha kunyamula Mawu a Mulungu m'mitima ya ena. Monga kuchezera kwa Maria kwa msuweni wake Elizabeti, mzimu wamwendamnjira ungakhale wina malowa, wina "wobala Mulungu" kudziko losweka ndi logawanika.
Koma tingakhale bwanji oyendayenda mdziko lino lapansi, ife omwe tikulimbana tsiku ndi tsiku ndi ziyeso za thupi? Yankho ndikuti tiyenera kupitiliza kuwongola msewu waukulu wa Mulungu wathu, kuti timupatse malo chifukwa Iye yekha ndi amene angathe kutisintha. Onaninso zomwe Yesaya adalemba:
M'chipululu konzani njira ya Ambuye; wongolani msewu wopita kuchipululu wa Mulungu wathu. (Yesaya 40: 3)
Mlendo ndi amene amalowa mchipululu cha chikhulupiriro ndikuvula chipululu, potero amapanga msewu waukulu wa Mulungu Wake. Ndipo kotero mawa, tipitiliza kulingalira za njira zisanu ndi ziwiri zomwe zidzatsegule mitima yathu koposa ku kupezeka Kwake kosintha.
CHidule ndi LEMBA
Tiyenera kukhala amoyo oyendayenda padziko lapansi, kusiya zonse, kuti tipeze Iye amene ali Wonse.
… Ambiri, amene ndakhala ndikukuwuzani kawiri kawiri ndipo tsopano ndikukuwuzani ngakhale ndi misozi, akuyenda ngati adani a mtanda wa Khristu… malingaliro awo ali pa zinthu za padziko lapansi. Nzika zathu zili kumwamba, ndipo kuchokera kumeneko tikuyembekezera Mpulumutsi, Ambuye Yesu Khristu… (Afil 3: 18-20)
