PAKATI PA CHimphepo

Zikuwoneka kwa ine kuti chilichonse padziko lapansi lero chasokonekera-osati mosiyana ndi momwe mphepo yamkuntho imakhudzira pomwe diso la namondwe likuyandikira. Mphepo ya chisokonezo ndi kuyeretsa zikuwomba padziko lonse lapansi pamene zikung'amba masamba otsika mtengo omwe amabisa kuzama kwachuma m'zachuma padziko lonse lapansi, andale, makhothi, kupanga chakudya, njira zaulimi, zofuna zamankhwala, akatswiri a nyengo, inde, ngakhale Mpingo womwe machimo ake akufotokozedwa kuti awone onse.

Koma mu zonsezi, uthenga wapakati pa Lenten Retreat wathu uli ngati kamphindi kowala koboola mumdima wapano, kukutikumbutsa kuti Mwana nthawi zonse amakhala kumbuyo kwa mitambo; kuti ngakhale utsi wakuda kwambiri kapena chifunga cholemera kwambiri sichingathetse kuwala kwathunthu ndi chigonjetso cha chiukitsiro. Uthengawu ndiwu: ngakhale dziko lapansi likhale lovuta chotani, ngakhale zitakhala zovuta bwanji zomwe ziti zichitike, ziribe kanthu kuti Mpingo ndi choonadi, kukongola, ndi ubwino zidzasowa bwanji m'malo ambiri… Khristu adzalamulira mu mphamvu ndi mphamvu mu mitima ya ana Ake auzimu. ^[1]cf. Kandulo Yofuka Ndipo Iye adzalamulira kudzera mu moyo wamkati wamapemphero, mgonero, ndikudalira. Satana amatha kugwira nyumba zathu - mawindo athu agalasi, zipilala, ndi zifanizo; wapatsidwa mphamvu yakuthawa monga Mulungu amuloleza… koma mdierekezi sangathe kukhudza moyo wanu, pokhapokha mutamulola; sangathe kufikira komwe kuli Utatu Woyera. Chinsinsi cha tonsefe ndi kusalola zopinga zomwe zikuwoneka ngati zosagwedezeka patsogolo pathu kulowa mumtima, kusokoneza mtendere wathu ndi kudalira Mulungu. Tiyenera kusunga chikhumbo cha Yesu nthawi zonse patsogolo pathu ngati chikumbutso chakuti Atate satisiya ngakhale wina aliyense atatichitira.

Pakatikati pa zinthu panthawiyo - ngakhale, monga ananenera Papa Paul VI, "zizindikiro zina za nthawi yamapeto zikuwonekera," ^[2]cf. Chifukwa Chiyani Apapa Sakuwa?—Kuyitanidwa kosalekeza ku ubwana wauzimu, chimene chiri chofunikira kuti Yesu akhale ndi moyo mwa ife. Isitala, ndichomwe chimapangitsa Khrisimasi kukhala yothandiza:

Kukhala mwana mchibale ndi Mulungu ndiye chofunikira kulowa muufumu. Pachifukwachi, tiyenera kudzichepetsa ndikukhala aang'ono… Pokhapokha Khristu atapangidwa mwa ife ndi pamene chinsinsi cha Khrisimasi chidzakwaniritsidwa mwa ife. Khrisimasi ndichinsinsi cha "kusinthana kodabwitsa" uku: Kusinthana kwakukulu! Mlengi wa munthu wakhala munthu, wobadwa ndi Namwali. Takhala tikugawana nawo umulungu wa Khristu yemwe adadzichepetsa kuti agawane umunthu wathu. -Katekisma wa Mpingo wa Katolika, Antiphon wamadzulo wa Januware 1, n. 526

 

PEMPHERO LALIKULU NDI LOFUNIKA

Sindingabwereze kufunika kokwanira kwa pemphero, kukhala moyo wamkati wathanzi ndi Mulungu. Koma mawu omwe akukwera mumtima mwanga lero, akulimbana ndi nyonga yamoto wamakala, ndi mphamvu. Tiyenera kukhala ndi kwambiri moyo wapemphero. Apa ndikutanthauza kwambiri momwe okondana awiri amayang'anizana; kwambiri in momwe mwamuna ndi mkazi amafunira kudzalumikizananso atakhala patali kwakanthawi; kwambiri momwe timakana kulola wina kapena china chake kutisokoneza; kwambiri momwe mwana amatambasulira manja ake kwa amake, akulira mpaka atamugwiranso. Ndiwo mphamvu yamtunduwu (zomwe zikutanthauza cholinga) kuti mtima ukhoza kukhalabe tcheru polimbana ndi ziyeso ndi misampha ya mdani. Apa ndiye, ndi chidule chachidule cha zomwe ndikutanthauza:

"Tiyenera kukumbukira Mulungu nthawi zambiri kuposa momwe timapumira." Koma sitingapemphere “nthawi zonse” ngati sitipemphera nthawi inayake, mwakufuna kwathu. Iyi ndi nthawi yapadera ya pemphero lachikhristu, mwamphamvu komanso motalika ... Chikhalidwe cha Chikhristu chasunga njira zitatu zazikuluzikulu zopempherera: kusinkhasinkha mozama, ndi kulingalira. Ali ndi chikhalidwe chimodzi chofanana: kukhazikika kwa mtima. Kukhazikika kumeneku pakusunga Mau ndikukhala pamaso pa Mulungu kumapangitsa mayankhulidwe atatuwa nthawi zochuluka mu moyo wa pemphero…. Kupemphera kolingalirapo ndiyonso nthawi yayikulu kwambiri yamapemphero. Mmenemo Atate amalimbitsa umunthu wathu wamkati ndi mphamvu kudzera mu Mzimu wake "kuti Khristu akhale m'mitima [yathu] mwa chikhulupiriro" ndi kuti tikhale "okhazikika m'chikondi." -CCC, n. 2697, 2699, 2714

Ngakhale chiri chikhulupiriro, osati malingaliro, chomwe chiri chofunikira cha ubwana wauzimu, sitingathe kuiwala malingaliro athu palimodzi. Ameneyo sangakhale munthu! M'malo mwake, Kadinala Wodala Henry Newman adati timalimbikitsa mantha ndikuopa Mulungu, a lingaliro lopatulika:

Ndiwo mkhalidwe wa malingaliro omwe tiyenera kukhala nawo — inde, kukhala nawo pamlingo waukulu — ngati tikadakhala ndi kuwona kwenikweni kwa Mulungu Wamphamvuyonse; chifukwa chake ndi gulu la malingaliro omwe tidzakhale nawo, ngati tizindikira kupezeka Kwake. Molingana ndi momwe timakhulupirira kuti Iye alipo, tidzakhala nawo; ndipo kusakhala nawo, sikukuzindikira, osati kukhulupirira kuti Alipo. -Maulaliki A Parochial and Plain V, 2 (London: Longmans, Green ndi Co, 1907) 21-22

MAYI ALI NDIWE

Monga mukukumbukira, ndidafunsa Amayi Odala kukhala "Master Retreat" wathu ndikalengeza Lenten Retreat. ^[3]onani Lenten Retreat ndi Mark Kenako ndidati "ndatsuka mbale yanga" "kuloleza Mfumukazi iyi kukhomereza mawu ake mumtima mwanga, kudzaza cholembera changa ndi inki ya nzeru zake, ndikusuntha milomo yanga ndi chikondi chake. Ndani amene angatipange bwino kuposa amene adapanga Yesu? ” Panali mawu awiri okha pamtima panga nthawi imeneyo: "a moyo wamkati. ” Chifukwa chake, ndidazindikira kuti izi ndizomwe amayi athu amafuna kulankhula: the moyo wamkati wapemphero. “Njira zisanu ndi ziwirizo”… chithunzi cha zibaluni… sizinthu zomwe ndidaganizirapo kale; adangobwera kwa ine ngati kunyezimira kwa kuwala pomwe Retreat idafutukuka. Chifukwa chake, ndimakhala ndi chidziwitso chakupezeka kwa Amayi Athu nafe, kuti iwowo amatiphunzitsa.

Ichi ndichifukwa chake ndidadabwitsidwa kuti ndiwerenge, mkati mwathu pothawira, chidule cha zonse zomwe ndidalemba mpaka pano, mu uthenga womwe adauza Mirjana pa Marichi 18th, 2016 ku Medjugorje. Tsopano, ndikuvomereza kuti ndakhala ndikukayikira kunena izi, popeza pali owerenga ochepa omwe amakana Medjugorje. Komabe, monga ndidalemba Pa Medjugorje, Ndikukana kunena ngati zowona kapena zabodza zomwe ngakhale a Vatican akukana kuchita izi pakadali pano, Papa akupitilizabe kuzindikira malingaliro a Commission yaposachedwa pazamawonekedwe akuti.

Ndipo zomwe akunena, zikuwoneka, ndi izi: chinsinsi chakuyenda padziko lapansi pano ndi ubwana wauzimu ndi pemphero lamkati. M'malo mwake, amatchulanso za madalitsidwe komanso mawonekedwe amkati mwamaganizidwe omwe anali gawo lathu:

Wokondedwa ana, ndimtima wamayi wodzazidwa ndi chikondi kwa inu, ana anga, ndikufuna ndikuphunzitseni kudalira kwathunthu Mulungu Atate. Ndikukhumba kuti muphunzire mwa kuyang'ana kwamkati ndikumvetsera kwamkati kutsatira chifuniro cha Mulungu. Ndikufuna kuti muphunzire kudalira mopanda malire mu chifundo Chake ndi chikondi Chake, monga ndakhala ndikudalira. Chifukwa chake, ana anga, yeretsani mitima yanu. Dzimasuleni ku chilichonse chomwe chimangomangirani kuzinthu zapadziko lapansi ndipo lolani zomwe zili za Mulungu kupanga moyo wanu mwa pemphero ndi kudzipereka kwanu kuti Ufumu wa Mulungu ukhale mumtima mwanu; kuti mutha kuyamba kukhala moyo kuchokera kwa Mulungu Atate; kuti nthawi zonse uyesetse kuyenda ndi Mwana wanga. Koma pazonsezi, ana anga, muyenera kukhala osauka mumzimu ndikudzazidwa ndi chikondi ndi chifundo. Muyenera kukhala ndi mitima yoyera ndi yosavuta ndipo khalani okonzeka nthawi zonse kutumikira. Ana anga, mverani ine, Ndimalankhula za chipulumutso chanu. Zikomo.—March 18, 2016; kuchokera medjugorje.org; makamaka, onani mauthenga ochokera pa 2 February pa nthawi yonseyi ya Lenti.

Apanso, osachepera, ichi ndigalasi lochititsa chidwi la Lenten Retreat, lomwe lachokera ku Gawo Lachinayi la Katekisimu pa Pemphero Lachikhristu. Koma ndiye, izi siziyenera kutidabwitsa. Ngati Dona Wathu akuyankhula nafe-m'njira iliyonse-zikuyenera kukhala chithunzi cha chiphunzitso cha Mpingo:

Mwa okhulupirira onse iye ali ngati "kalilole" momwe akuwonetsera "zodabwitsa za Mulungu" mwakuya komanso mopanda nzeru. —POPA JOHN PAUL II, Redemptoris Mater, n. Zamgululi

 

KUMBUKIRANI KUTI NDAKUuzani

Monga ndagawira nanu kale, panali zaka zisanu ndi zitatu kapena zisanu ndi zinayi zapitazo pomwe ndidayima m'munda wam'munda ndikuwonera mphepo yamkuntho ikubwera, pomwe Ambuye adandiwonetsa mu mzimu mkuntho waukulu anali kubwera pa dziko. Zochitika zimakulirakulira, wina ndi mzake, pamene timayandikira Diso la Mkuntho. Kalelo, ambiri mu Tchalitchi anali osatsekerera chenjezo ili kuti ndinakakamizidwa ndi chikumbumtima chabwino (ndi chitsogozo chauzimu) kupereka. Tsopano, atsogoleri achipembedzo ambiri komanso anthu wamba wamba amadabwitsidwa modzidzimutsa ndikumadandaula, posachedwa, malamulo akusintha omwe ali de A facto Kuletsa Chikhristu, pang'onopang'ono. Koma nthawi yatha. Izi zikutanthauza kuti Zisindikizo Zisanu ndi ziwiri za Revolution tsopano afika pa ife:

Akabzala mphepo, adzakolola kamvuluvulu. (Hos. 8: 7)

Atsogoleri ambiri amafesa bodza loti munthu akhoza "kutsatira chikumbumtima chake" pankhani yoletsa (mosiyana ndi "chikumbumtima chodziwitsidwa"). ^[4]cf. O Canada… Muli Kuti? Ndipo tsopano tikututa kamvuluvulu wa chikhalidwe cha imfa. Andale monga Prime Minister wakale waku Canada a Pierre Trudeau, kale m'ma 1970, adati kuchotsa mimbayo kudzaloledwa mdziko muno "nthawi zina". Tinafesa muimfa, ndipo tsopano mwana wake Justin wabwera kudzatsiriza ntchitoyi ^[5]cf. Otsogolera-Kututa mphepo yamkuntho, monga iye ndi Khothi Lalikulu ^[6]cf.

Nthawi ya Lupanga Adzakolola kamvuluvulu. ^[9]cf. Kukolola Kamvuluvulu;  Kupita Patsogolo kwa Munthu 

Koma zonsezi siziyenera kudabwitsa kwa Mkhristu. Monga Yesu adanenera kangapo,

Ndakuuzani izi zisanachitike, kuti pamene zichitika mukakhulupirire… ndakuwuzani izi kuti musatayike

Izi ndikuti Ambuye wathu akufuna kuti tidziwe kuti zinthu izi ziyenera kuchitika kuti zisatidabwitse kotero kuti titha kutaya chikhulupiriro ndi "kugwa", kutaya "mtendere" wathu, kapena kufooka "molimba mtima." Koma apa ndi pomwe Amayi athu akutiphunzitsa chinsinsi cha nthawi yathu ino: kudziwa chomwe chikubwera sikokwanira; kani kupemphera ndi kukhalabe mwa Yesu NDI.

Kondani Mwana wanga ndipo pangani izi kuti ena awone nkhope Yake kudzera mu chikondi chanu pa Iye. —March 2, 2016

 

ZOYENERA KUDZIWA

Pomaliza, ndikufuna ndikuuzeni kuti ndi mwayi wamtengo wapatali kuti ndikulembereni. Ndizovuta kukhulupirira kuti zolemba pafupifupi 1200 pambuyo pake, zomwe zikufanana ndi mabuku 30, ndidakali ndi mafuta m'thanki. Kunena zowona, masomphenya anga akukulira tsiku ndi tsiku. Ndipo ndasweka kwambiri pantchito yanga yoimba. Ndikutanthauza, pali machenjezo amphamvu m'malemba anga-zinthu zomwe tikuziwona zikuchitika-koma mawu omwe sakonda kwenikweni ambiri. Ndipo ndizabwino… ndizomwe ndikumva kuti Ambuye andifunsa, ndipo chifuniro Chake ndicho chakudya changa. Ndili pamtendere pomwe ndili pakali pano ndikulangizidwa mwanzeru ndi mkazi wanga, chitsogozo chofunikira chauzimu cha wansembe, komanso mdalitso wa bishopu wanga.

Koma moona, inenso ndasweka. Kwa zaka zambiri, ndayika ndalama pafupifupi a kotala miliyoni miliyoni kupanga nyimbo zabwino kwambiri za Katolika, makanema, mabuku ndi mabulogu omwe tingathe. Zina mwazomwe zidakwaniritsidwa ndi zopereka, koma zambiri zandithandizira ndekha. Koma nyimbo zikamayimba ngati Spotify zimatumiza ndalama zosakwana $ 10 pamwezi kuti zizisindikiza nyimbo zanga padziko lapansi… zimapundula wojambula wodziyimira pawokha. Ndakhala ndikumanidwa ndi anthu opitilira m'modzi kuti nyimbo zanga ndi CD yokhayo m'galimoto yawo m'mbuyomu zaka zitatu. Koma mwanjira ina, changu chotere sichikutanthauzira ku thupi lalikulu la Khristu.

Sindinakulembereni ndi ntchito zazitali zopezera ndalama kapena maimelo pafupipafupi opempha thandizo lanu. M'malo mwake, ndapatsa mwaufulu nyimbo zanga komanso zolemba zanga. Monga Yesu adati,

Mwalandira kwaulere; muzipereka kwaulere. (Mat. 10: 8)

Koma Woyera Paulo adatinso,

… Ambuye adalamula kuti iwo amene amalalikira uthenga wabwino azikhala moyo mogwirizana ndi uthenga wabwino. (1 Akor. 9:14)

Sindingachitire mwina koma kupempha. Pempherani kapena bankirapuse. Anthu ena amazindikira kuti utumiki ngati uwu ndi ntchito yanthawi zonse ndi zolipira zambiri (ngakhale timayesetsa kudula komwe tingagwire ndi m'modzi m'modzi wogwira ntchito, timagula magalimoto okwera kwambiri, timakula ndikumadzipezera chakudya, ndi zina zambiri). Komabe, nthawi zina anthu amandidzudzula chifukwa chosafotokoza zosowa zathu.

Ndipo tsopano ndili pano. Ndili ndi ngongole zandalama pafupifupi zana limodzi (kupatula ngongole yathu) kuti utumiki wathu ndi banja lathu zitheke. Koma tikutha, osati ndalama, zomwe zidachitika zaka zapitazo - koma ngongole. Chimodzi mwazovuta zathu ndikuti tili, malinga ndi abwenzi ndi abale, "masoka" ochulukirapo. Ndikutanthauza, kutsogolera mpaka nthawi ya Lenten Retreat, magalimoto athu onse adakonzedwa bwino mu masauzande; denga la studio yathu linawonongeka ndi mphepo yamkuntho; ng'anjo mu studio, nyumba, ndi garaja aliyense anasiya kawiri zomwe zidapangitsa kuti kukonzanso kwamtengo wapatali komwe kukuchitikabe… Zakhala ndalama zambiri zopanda malire. Nthawi zina ndimadabwa kuti izi ndizowopsa bwanji zauzimu, chifukwa ndi zomwe zimandifooketsa. Gawo limodzi kutsogolo, atatu kubwerera. Ndimadana ndi ngongole, ngakhale ndikukumbutsidwa za woyera mtima yemwe adabwerekanso ngongole kuti amange nyumba zosungira anthu ndi ana amasiye. Ine ndi mkazi wanga tatenganso kwambiri chikhulupiriro kuti tikupatseni inu ndi Uthenga Wabwino… Sindikudziwa kuti ndingakhale ndi chikwama mpaka liti.

Ndipo kotero, kamodzinso, ndikudzipeza ndekha ndikuzindikira chomwe chotsatira chomwe chingabwerere kwa banja langa komanso utumiki. Chonde mutipempherere, kuti mutiteteze, komanso kuti nzeru. Ndipo ngati Mulungu wakudalitsani pankhani zachuma, mutha kuyikapo ndalama zagolide, zasiliva, ndalama zakunja kapena zovuta zina. Koma ndikukupemphani kuti muganizire zopeza ndalama miyoyo. Utumiki wathu umafunikiradi iwo omwe ali ndi chuma kuti abwere kudzatithandiza panthawiyi.
