POPANDA kulingalira za Yesu mu Zinsinsi Zaulemerero usiku watha, ndimaganizira zakuti nthawi zonse ndimaganiza za Mariya akuimirira pomwe Yesu adamuveka korona wa Mfumukazi Yakumwamba. Malingaliro awa adadza kwa ine…

Mary adagwada pansi polemekeza kwambiri Mulungu wake ndi Mwana wake, Yesu. Koma pamene Yesu adayandikira kuti amuveke korona, adamkoka mofatsa pamapazi ake, kulemekeza Lamulo Lachisanu "Uzilemekeza amayi ako ndi abambo ako."

Ndipo pachisangalalo cha Kumwamba, adaikidwa pa mpando wachifumu wawo.

Tchalitchi cha Katolika sichilambira Maria, cholengedwa chonga iwe ndi ine. Koma timalemekeza oyera athu, ndipo Maria ndiye wamkulu kuposa iwo onse. Pakuti samangokhala mayi wa Khristu (taganizani za izo — Iye mwina anatenga mphuno Yake yabwino Yachiyuda kuchokera kwa iye), koma iye anali chitsanzo cha chikhulupiriro changwiro, chiyembekezo changwiro, ndi chikondi changwiro.

Atatu awa atsalira (1 Cor 13: 13), ndipo ndiwo miyala yamtengo wapatali kwambiri mu korona wake.

DZULO Mapemphero akusonyeza kutha kwa sabata la Pentekosti - koma osati kufunikira kwakukulu mu miyoyo yathu ya Mzimu Woyera ndi Mkazi Wake, Namwali Maria.

Zakhala zondichitikira ine ndekha, nditapita kumaparishi mazana, kukumana ndi anthu masauzande ambiri - kuti miyoyo yomwe imatsegulira ku ntchito ya Mzimu Woyera, komanso kudzipereka kwa Maria, ndi ena mwa atumwi olimba kwambiri omwe ndikuwadziwa .

Ndipo ndichifukwa chiyani izi ziyenera kudabwitsa aliyense? Kodi sikunali kuphatikiza kwa kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zaka mazana 20 zapitazo, komwe kunadzetsa umunthu wa Mulungu m'thupi, Yesu Khristu?

Umu ndi momwe Yesu amapangidwira nthawi zonse. Umu ndi m'mene Iye amasindikizidwanso mu miyoyo… Amisiri awiri ayenera kuvomerezana mu ntchito yomwe nthawi yomweyo ndi mbambande ya Mulungu ndi chinthu chopambana cha umunthu: Mzimu Woyera ndi Namwali Woyera kwambiri Maria… chifukwa ndi okhawo omwe angathe kubereka Khristu. -Archbishopu Luis M. Martinez, Woyeretsa

PAPA John Paul II adatcha Rosary "sukulu ya Maria".

Ndi kangati pomwe ndakhala ndikudodometsedwa ndikusokonezedwa ndi nkhawa, kungoti ndimizidwa mumtendere waukulu ndikayamba kupemphera Rosari! Ndipo ndichifukwa chiyani izi ziyenera kutidabwitsa? Korona si china ayi koma "buku lowonjezera la Uthenga Wabwino" (Rosarium Virginis Mariae, JPII). Ndipo Mawu a Mulungu ali "living and effective, sharper than any two-edged sword" (Ahebri 4: 12).

Kodi mukufuna kudula pachisoni cha mtima wanu? Kodi mukufuna kuboola mdima mkati mwa moyo wanu? Ndiye tengani Lupanga ili mu mawonekedwe a unyolo, ndipo nalo ilo, ganizirani nkhope ya Khristu mu Zinsinsi za Rosary. Kunja kwa Masakramenti, sindikudziwa njira ina iliyonse yomwe ingakwere msanga makoma a chiyero, kuunikiridwa mu chikumbumtima, kubweretsedwa ku kulapa, ndi kutsegulidwa ku chidziwitso cha Mulungu, kuposa ndi pemphero laling'ono ili la Handmaiden.

Ndipo pemphero ili ndi lamphamvu, momwemonso mayesero osati kuti azipemphera. M'malo mwake, ine ndekha ndikulimbana ndi kudzipereka uku kuposa wina aliyense. Koma chipatso cha kupirira titha kufananizidwa ndi amene amabowola mapazi mazana pansi mpaka pamapeto pake atawulula mgodi wagolide.

Ngati panthawi ya Rosary, mwasokonezedwa maulendo 50, ndiye yambani kupempheranso nthawi iliyonse. Mwangopereka kumene machitidwe 50 achikondi kwa Mulungu. -Fr. Bob Johnson, Madonna House Apostolate (woyang'anira wanga wauzimu)

 

Lidzakhazikika mpaka kalekale ngati mwezi,
ndi mboni yokhulupirika kumwamba. (Masalmo 59:57)

KOSA usiku pamene ndimayang'ana kumwezi, ganizo linalowa m'mutu mwanga. Zinthu zakumwamba ndizofanana ndi chinthu china…

Mary ndiye mwezi chomwe chimanyezimiritsa Mwana, Yesu. Ngakhale Mwana ndiye gwero la kuwunika, Maria amamuwonetsanso kwa ife. Ndipo mozungulira iye ndi nyenyezi zosawerengeka - Oyera, akuunikira mbiriyakale ndi iye.

Nthawi zina, Yesu amawoneka ngati "akusowa," kupitirira zowawa zathu. Koma sanatisiye: pakadali pano akuwoneka kuti wasowa, Yesu akuthamanga kuti atipezere njira yatsopano. Monga chizindikiro cha kupezeka Kwake ndi chikondi, Watisiyanso Amayi Ake. Sanalowe m'malo mwa mphamvu yopatsa moyo ya Mwana wake; koma monga mayi wosamala, amayatsa mdima, kutikumbutsa kuti Iye ndiye Kuunika kwa Dziko Lapansi… ndipo osakayikira konse chifundo Chake, ngakhale munthawi zathu zakuda kwambiri.

Nditalandira "mawu owoneka" awa, lemba lotsatirali lidathamanga ngati nyenyezi yowombera:

A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. –Chivumbulutso 12: 1
