Mtima Woyera wa Yesu wolemba Michael D. O'Brien
NDILI NDI adachita chidwi ndi maimelo ochuluka sabata yatha kuchokera kwa ansembe, madikoni, anthu wamba, Akatolika, ndi Apulotesitanti chimodzimodzi, ndipo pafupifupi onsewa akutsimikizira tanthauzo la "ulosi"Malipenga a Chenjezo!"
Ndalandira imodzi usikuuno kuchokera kwa mayi yemwe wagwedezeka ndikuchita mantha. Ndikufuna kuyankha kalatayo pano, ndipo ndikukhulupirira mutenga kanthawi kuti muwerenge izi. Ndikukhulupirira kuti zisungitsa malingaliro, komanso mitima pamalo oyenera ...
Mark wokondedwa,
Ndikuganiza kuti ndakhala zaka zambiri ndikudzitonthoza ndekha ndikudziwuza ndekha za Mulungu WACHIKONDI, wachifundo ndi wachimwemwe, komanso nthabwala za "kutembenuka kapena kuwotcha" zoyesayesa za alaliki ... sindikudziwa mokwanira za zomwe apapa ndipo oyera alemba, koma ndikaganizira mawu awa [aulosi], amangobweretsa mantha mumtima mwanga, ndipo ndikuganiza kuti Mulungu si Mulungu wamantha…
Wokondedwa wowerenga,
Dziwani kuti Mulungu si Mulungu wamantha. Iye is Mulungu wachikondi, wachifundo ndi wachifundo.
Munatchula pambuyo pake m’kalata yanu kuti pamene ana anu ali aukali, samamvetsera, ndipo ali ndi ululu m’matako, nthaŵi zina mumafunika kuwalanga. Kodi izi zikukupangani kukhala mayi wamantha? Kwa ine zimamveka ngati ndinu mayi wachikondi. Ndiyeno, kodi tingapatse Mulungu chilolezo choti atikonde ifenso pamene tatuluka pa mzere, ndi kukana kumvera? Ndipotu, Paulo Woyera akulankhula mwamphamvu za chikondi cha Mulungu mwa kulanga:
Ambuye alanga iye amene amkonda, nalanga mwana ali yense amene amlandira… Ngati mulibe mwambo, umene onse agawanamo, simuli ana, koma ana apathengo. ( Ahebri 12:8 )
Sife ana amasiye. Mulungu amasamala!
Zimandikumbutsa nkhani imene ndinamva kwa wansembe amene ndimamudziwa yemwe ankasamalira nyumba ya achinyamata ovutika. Tsiku lina, mnyamata wina wovulala kwambiri analankhula mofuula kuti: “Ndikungolakalaka kuti bambo anga akanandikwapula Kamodzi. Ndikadadziwa kuti amandikonda!"
Mulungu amasamala. Amasamala kuti tsogolo la ana athu, monga momwe mukufotokozera, ndi losasangalatsa, ngakhale lowopsa. Ndimadandaula tsiku lililonse ana anga akapita kokwerera basi. Sindingachitire mwina. Chikondi chimavulaza mtima!
Momwemonso, mtima wa Mulungu wavulazidwa tsopano, ndipo pazifukwa zomveka-zifukwa zomwe ndalemba mu "Malipenga a Chenjezo!Ndani angatsutse kuti anthu akuwoneka kuti akungofuna kudziwononga okha, kaya mwa kuyambitsa kusintha kwa nyengo, chipwirikiti cha nyukiliya, kapena kugawanika kwa anthu muupandu? Mwina zingatigwedeze pang'ono kuti tibwerere ku malingaliro athu?N'chifukwa chiyani izi sizikugwirizana ndi Mulungu?
Sichoncho, monga tikudziwira kuchokera mu Lemba lokha. Kungoti m’bado uno watanganidwa kwambiri ndi kunyoza Mulungu woona, moti sitikudziwanso kuti iye ndi ndani. Tamulenganso m’chifaniziro chathu: Iye salinso Mulungu wachikondi, tsopano ndi Mulungu wa “ukoma,” Mulungu amene amalekerera chilichonse chimene timachita, ngakhale zitatipha.
Ayi. Iye ndi Mulungu wa kukonda-ndipo chikondi chimauza nthawi zonse choonadi. Anthu samazindikira kuti, kwenikweni, chiyambire 1917 pamene Namwali Mariya anawonekera ku Fatima, Mulungu wakhala akuchenjeza anthu kuti njira yake yamakono idzatsogolera kuchiwonongeko chake ndi dzanja lake. Zimenezi zinachitika zaka 89 zapitazo! Kodi zimenezo zikumveka ngati Mulungu “wofulumira kukwiya, ndi wosafulumira kuchitira chifundo”—kapena mosiyana, monga momwe timaŵerengera m’Malemba?
Ambuye sachedwetsa lonjezo lake, monga ena amati “kuchedwa,” koma aleza mtima kwa inu, wosafuna kuti ena awonongeke, koma kuti onse afike kukulapa. (2 Peter 3: 9)
Chimene ndikuganiza kuti sichili bwino ndikumva mauthenga "aulosi" akuperekedwa, ndipo mwadzidzidzi mantha. Ndani akudziwa kuti zinthu zimenezi zidzatenga nthawi yaitali bwanji kuti zichitike? Ndikuganiza kuti tiyenera kukhala otseguka kuti kulapa kochokera pansi pamtima kwa moyo umodzi kungakhale kokwanira kuti Mulungu achitenso zaka zina zingapo kapena kupitilira apo. Iwo amene amaika masiku, ine ndikukhulupirira, amaikadi malire Ambuye.
Apo is kudzimva mwachangu kulapa. Koma tingachite bwino kumvera zimenezo mu m’badwo uliwonse. Kodi Paulo sananene kuti, “Lero ndi tsiku la chipulumutso”? Tiyenera kukhala okonzeka nthawizonse. Chifukwa chake, mauthenga amtsogolo ayenera kuchita chinthu chimodzi: kutibweza ife ku nthawi yomwe ili tsopano, kukhalamo mu mzimu wa chikhulupiriro, kudzipereka, ndi chiyembekezo.
Lero, ndinapita ku Misa yam'mawa, ndikusangalala ndi chisangalalo cha kubwera kwa Yesu kudzakhala mkati mwanga. Ndiyeno ndinathera nthaŵi m’pemphero la m’maŵa, limene linamaliza ndi kuŵerenga kwanga kwauzimu. Ayi, silinali buku la Hal Lindsay. M'malo mwake, ndakhala ndikusinkhasinkha kwa miyezi ingapo pa bukhuli, Sacramenti la Pano ndi Jean Pierre de Caussade. Ndi za kukhala mu nthawi ino, osiyidwa kotheratu ku chifuniro cha Mulungu, choperekedwa kwa ife mu mphindi iliyonse. Ndi za kukhala mwana wamng'ono wa Mulungu.
Kenaka ndinakhala mbali ina ya masana nditavala ngati msilikali, ndikuthamangitsa mwana wanga wazaka ziwiri kukhitchini ndi lupanga lapulasitiki. Ndinachezera mnzanga m’nyumba ya mkulu ndi ana anga aamuna, ndiyeno ndinapita kupaki kukaseŵera ndi banja langa. Linali tsiku losangalatsa kwambiri, loti linali lokongola kwambiri likamalowa.
Kodi ndaganizira za mawu "aulosi" awa omwe ndalemba? Inde. Ndipo malingaliro anga, "Ambuye, fulumirani tsiku limene mudzabwerera kuti ndidzakuonani maso ndi maso. Ndipo ndibweretse miyoyo yambiri pamodzi ndi ine momwe ndingathere."
