MHURI YEDU

Mumashoko anotenderwa kuna Elizabeth Kindelmann, Jesu anoti:

Vose vanokokwa kujoina hondo yangu yakakosha. Kuuya kwehumambo hwangu kunofanirwa kuve kwako chete chinangwa muhupenyu. Mashoko angu achasvika kumweya mizhinji. Vimba! Ndichakubatsirai mose nenzira inoshamisa. Usade nyaradzo. Usave mbwende. Usamirira. Kutarisana neDutu kuti tinunure mweya. Zvipe pachako kubasa. Ukasaita chinhu, unosiya pasi kunaSatani uye kuti vatadze. Vhura maziso ako uye uone njodzi dzese dzinoti vanobatwa uye vanotyisidzira mweya yako. —Jesu kuna Erizabheti Kindelmann, Murazvo worudo, pg. 34, rakaburitswa neVana veBaba Foundation; Imprimatur Archbishop Charles Chaput

Mashoko ane simba zvakadii! Ndezvipi zvimwe zvinoda kutaurwa? Nekudaro, mubvunzo kana Mwari achizokuchengetedza iwe nemhuri yako muDutu iri ndiwo zvakaipa mubvunzo. Mubvunzo wakakodzera ndewokuti:

"Ishe, tingaite sei kupa hupenyu hwedu nekuda kweVhangeri?"

"Jesu, ndingakubatsira sei kuponesa mweya?"

Inoteverwa nekuzvipira kwakasimba:

“Ndiri pano Ishe. Zvose ngazviitwe maererano nekuda kwenyu.

Kana usati waverenga Yedu Mukadzi Wechidiki Rudiki, ndapota ita: iko chaiko kukokwa kune iri "rakakosha kurwa simba." Yakavakirwa pane iyo nyaya apo Mwari paanotaurira Gidheoni kuti aderedze uto rake, izvo zvaanoita nemazwi aya:

“Kana paine munhu anotya kana anotya, ngaabve! Muregei abve paGomo reGireadhi. ” Masoja zviuru makumi maviri nezviviri vakasara… (Vatongi 7: 3-7)

Pakupedzisira, Gidheoni anotora chete mazana matatu masoja aakange anawo ekukomberedza mauto eMidhiani. Zvakare, ivo vanorairwa kusiya kumashure kwavo zvombo uye kutora chete torch, chirongo, uye hwamanda. Mune mamwe mazwi, isu tinofanirwa kusangana neDutu iri nemurazvo wekutenda kwedu, mudziyo wevhu wekushaya simba kwedu, uye runyanga rweEvhangeri. Izvi ndizvo zvatinowana - uye kuti Jesu anoda kuti zvive sei munguva dzino:

Nguva yerima iri kuuya panyika, asi nguva yekubwinya iri kuuya kuChechi yangu, nguva yekubwinya iri kuuya kuvanhu vangu. Ndichadurura pauri zvipo zvese zveMweya wangu. Ndichakugadzirirai kurwa pamweya; Ndichakugadzirirai nguva yeevhangeri iyo nyika isati yamboona…. Uye kana usina chinhu kunze kwangu, uchawana zvese… -Uporofita hwakapihwa Dr. Ralph Martin muSt. Peter's Square pamberi paPapa Paul VI; Pentekosti Muvhuro, Chivabvu, 1975

Inoita-intuitive, ehe. Isu tinongoda kurarama; takasikwa nokuti hupenyu. Asi Jesu anotsanangura zvekare kuti "hupenyu" hwechokwadi chii:

Ani naani anoda kunditevera anofanira kuzviramba, atore muchinjikwa wake, anditevere. Ani naani anoda kuponesa upenyu hwake acharasikirwa nahwo, asi ani naani anorasikirwa neupenyu hwake nekuda kwangu nehwevhangeri achahuponesa. (Mako 8: 34-35)

MuEvhangeri yanhasi, Jesu anotsiura vanhu nekuti vari kumutevera - kuti vawane chikafu - kwete Chingwa cheruponeso.

Usashandira chikafu chinoparara asi chikafu chinogara kuupenyu husingaperi chauchakupihwa neMwanakomana weMunhu… (Evhangeri yanhasi; (Johani 6:27)

Mukupesana, Stefano akatambudzwa nekuti akaisa hupenyu hwake pabasa reEvhangeri:

Stefano, azere nenyasha nesimba, aiita zvishamiso zvikuru nezviratidzo pakati pevanhu… Vakamutsa vanhu, vakuru, nevanyori, vakamubata, vakamubata… Vese vakange vagere muSanihedrini vakatarisisa kwaari. kuti chiso chake chakanga chakaita sechiso chomutumwa. (Kuverenga kwanhasi kwekutanga; (Mabasa 6: 8-15)

Ndiwo mufananidzo wequintessential wemudzidzi wechokwadi uye Divine Providence ari tandem: Stefano anopa zvese kuna Mwari-uye Mwari vanopa zvese izvo Stephen zvinodiwa, paanoida. Ndosaka chiso chake chaive chakaita sengirozi nekuti, mukati, Stefani aive nezvose, kunyangwe aive oda kutakwa nematombo kusvika afa. Dambudziko nemaKristu mazhinji nhasi hatitende kuti Baba vachatipa. Neruoko rumwe rwakasimudzwa kunaIshe, tinoMukumbira "chingwa chedu chezuva nezuva", uye nerumwe, tinonamatira kukadhi redu rechikwereti - nyaya. Asi kunyangwe ipapo, isu tinotarisa pane izvo zvinhu, pane edu "zvinhu", ndosaka Jesu achitiudza kuti tiite “Tangai kutsvaka ushe hwaMwari, nekururama kwake, zvino izvozvi zvose zvichawedzerwa kwamuri” (Mat. 6:33).

Asi the the spirit of kufunga nderimwe rematambudziko makuru enguva yedu, kunyanya muChechi. Iwo mweya usingasiye nzvimbo yezvemashura, hapana nzvimbo yekuti Mwari varopafadze vana Vavo nekuita minana yavo. Kunze kwekunge isu tichigona kuongorora, kufungidzira, uye kudzora nharaunda yedu, isu tinotendeukira pakutya nekunyengedza pane kuvimba nekuzvipira. Muverengi anodikanwa, ongorora hana yako uye uone kana ichi chisiri chokwadi, kana isu, isu "takabhabhatidzwa, takasimbiswa, uye takazvitsaurira" tisina kuzvibata pamwe chete nekuzvidzivirira sezvakaita nyika yese.

Ichi, muchokwadi, ndosaka Jesu achitsiura Chechi mu "nguva dzekupedzisira": kudziya-Kurasikirwa nepfungwa dzinoshamisa, kufunga kwenyika, uye kusisiri kufamba maererano nekutenda, asi kuona.

Nekuti iwe unoti: Ndakapfuma, ndakapfuma uye handina chandinoshaiwa, asi usingazivi kuti uri murombo, unonzwisa tsitsi, uri murombo, ibofu uye wakashama. (Zvakazarurwa 3:17)

Mukadzi wedu ari kutishevedza ku zvinoshamisa vimba nenguva ino. Ari kuzokuratidza basa rako kwauri, kana zvisiri izvo izvozvi, kana nguva yacho yasvika (uye panguva ino, tinogona kunamata, kutsanya, kureverera, uye kukura muhutsvene kuitira kuti tigobereka zvibereko patiri chaipo). Izvi kutanga “Zvakaoma marwadzo ekushanda "isu tiri kutsungirira itsitsi: irikutidaidza kuti tigadzirire mukati kutenda (kwete kutya) yenguva dziri kuitika pasi rese.

Asi zvakadaro, iwe unobvunza, ko zvakadii iyi mibvunzo inoshanda?

PAMUSORO POKUDZIVA

Ndatotaura chokwadi Kupotera Munguva Dzedu. Asi ini ndaigona kuzvipfupisa saizvozvo: chero Mwari aripo, pane nzvimbo yakachengeteka. Kana Mwari anogara mandiri, neni maAri, ndiri munzvimbo yake yekuvanda. Nekudaro, chero chinouya - nyaradzo kana dongo - ini "ndakachengeteka" nekuti Kuda kwavo kunogara kuri chikafu changu.

Mwari zvirokwazvo vachapa hutiziro chaihwo kumhuri dzakawanda munguva dzinouya nekuti naidzo dzinozoita maruva echirimo chitsva.

Tinofanirawo kuva vanongwarira zvikuru kudzivisa mashura. Chechi ine masakaramende mazhinji anovimbisa kudzivirirwa kubva kune zvakaipa: menduru yeScapular, Musande Benedict, Mvura Tsvene, nezvimwe. Vamwe vafundisi muChechi vakakurudzira kuturika zvifananidzo zvinoyera pamikova yedu kana kuisa mifananidzo yakakomborerwa mudzimba medu kuitira kudzivirira " kuranga. ” Hapana chimwe cheizvi, zvakadaro, chakafanana netumashiripiti kana mazango anotsiva rutendo, Great Commission, nemabasa atinoshevedzwa naMwari kuti tiite. Isu tatoziva zvakaitika kune uyo akaviga tarenda rake muvhu nekutya…^[1]cf. Mat 25: 18-30 Uyezve, kwaive kupotera chaiko kuna Jesu?

Makava ane mwena uye shiri dzedenga dzine matendere, asi Mwanakomana wemunhu haana kana pekuzorodza musoro. (Mateo 8:20)

Sezvandaive mune zvandaigara, Jesu wangu akanaka akanditakura akandibudisira kunze kwangu, ndokundiratidza mhomho yevanhu vachichema, vasina pekugara, nyama yekuparadzwa kukuru; maguta akapunzika, migwagwa yakasiiwa uye isingagarike.
