Nepo vanakomana nevanasikana vazhinji vakakurira pamapurazi vachishanda pamwe nevabereki vavo, zera razvino remaindasitiri uye tekinoroji raendesa mhuri kupinda muguta, vabereki munzvimbo yebasa, uye nevana, kwete chete muzvikoro zuva rese, asi munzvimbo dzemasikati umo simba nekuvapo yevabereki vavo inenge isina. Vanababa, uye kazhinji amai futi, vanopedza maawa marefu kubasa kungoita raramo, kana zvimwe, nguva yakawandisa vasipo pamba vachitsvaga kubudirira uye hupfumi hwakawanda hwezvinhu.
Kuita zvechikadzi kwakanyanya kwakaita zvakawanda kubvisa baba. Basa rababa rakadzikiswa kubva kumutungamiriri wezvemweya kuenda kune akapusa mupi, uye zvakanyanya, chinhu chisina basa mukati memba.

Dambudziko rekuva baba ratiri kurarama nhasi chinhu, pamwe chakanyanya kukosha, chinotyisidzira murume muhunhu hwake. Kuparara kwababa uye kuve amai kwakabatana nekuparadzwa kwekuva kwedu vanakomana nevanasikana. —PAPA BENEDICT XVI (Kadhinari Ratzinger), Palermo, Kurume 15, 2000
Ndizvo zvakaitika uye zvinoramba zvichiitika munyika. Asi chimwe chinhu chiri kutora nzvimbo chinyararire mukati mechikamu cheKereke…
KUTendeuka KUKURU
Zvinotaridza kwandiri kuti Mwari vaburitsa mweya wechiporofita waEria kupinda munyika yedu; mumakore 15 apfuura kana zvakadaro, mafambiro akaita se Vachengeti veSungano yaSt (Promise Keepers ndiyo yechiPurotesitendi vhezheni) ave achishanda mukudzorera hunhu hwababa hwemweya mumhuri. Mwari akamutsawo vaparidzi vane simba nevaparidzi, vese vanhuwo zvavo uye vafundisi, avo vakakurudzira varume kuti vatendeuke pakusada Mwari uye kuti vave zvapupu zviri nani kumadzimai avo nevana.
Pakave zvakare nekukura kuri kufamba kudzimba dzekuchikoro uko vabereki vari kunzwa kudaidzwa kuti vapedze nguva yakawanda vachigadzira vana vavo, kwete chete nesvomhu nechirungu, asi nekuvapo kwavo kuri nyore. Chechi yakakwidzawo izwi rayo munzvimbo iyi, ichisimbisa basa revabereki se "wekutanga" uye vadzidzisi vekutanga vevana vavo.
Uye muna kufamba kutsva kweMweya, pane izwi rakasimba riri kukura mumoyo mizhinji riri kuvadaidza ku Hupenyu hwekureruka. Ndihwo hupenyu hwakabviswa zvakanyanya (kana husiri kure kure) kubva kune zvido zvemunyika, zvisingasanganisike muhurongwa hwenyika, uye mune dzimwe nguva, kubviswa kubva kune zvigadzirwa (giridhi yemagetsi, gasi rechisikigo, mvura yeguta nezvimwewo. kudana kuna "Budai muBhabhironi, ”Kana semunyori, Michael O'Brien, munguva pfupi yapfuura, 'hutapwa hwepasi rose hweBhabhironi' — chisungo chezvinhu zvekunyepedzera zvekuda kutenga uye zvekuda nyika.
CHIRATIDZO CHENGUVA: KUUNGANIDZWA KWEMHURI
Jesu akataura kuti chimwe chezviratidzo chekuti chizvarwa chenguva yemberi chasvika pa "mazuva eMwanakomana weMunhu" ndechekuti nguva idzodzo dzichava “sezvazvaive mumazuva aNoa” (Ruka 17:26) Uye chii chakangoitika risati rasvika iro zuva guru rekutongwa Mwari paakafashamira pasi? Akaunganidza Noa nemhuri yake munzvimbo yekutizira muareka. Mazuva aNoa nemazuva aEria ndiwo imwe uye yakafanana: mwoyo yababa ichatendeukira kuvana vavo, uye mhuri idzi dzichaunganidzwa pamwechete muAreka yeChipangano Chitsva, Mhandara Yakaropafadzwa Maria. Ichi chichava chiratidzo chekuti tiri kupinda munguva yepedyo apo nguva yenyasha yaizopera, uye kurangwa, "zuva raJEHOVHA," raizokurumidza kuwira an asingapfidzi nyika.
Ichi chiratidzo chenguva yedu chinotakura zvakatonyanya kukosha kana tichifunga kuti mhuri zhinji, dzimwe dzandakasangana nadzo mukati merwendo rwangu rwamakonzati kuburikidza neCanada neUnited States nguva pfupi yadarika, dzakadaidzwa kuti dzigare pedyo napedyo kune dzimwe mhuri. Zvichida aya ndiwo "matsvene ekuzorora" andakanyora mairi Hwamanda dzeYambiro- Chikamu IV. Chinhu chinonyanya kushamisa chinobatanidza mhuri idzi ndechekuti vese vakanzwa kudaidzwa uku kutamisa mhuri dzavo panguva imwe, yakazvimiririra kune mumwe nemumwe. Runhare rwakauya nekukurumidza. Yakanga yakasimba. Zvaida kukurumidza.
Ndakaona izvi munzvimbo dzinoverengeka… uye ndiri kuzvionera ndega.
Mwari ari kuunganidza vanhu vake.
EPILOGUE
Nguva pfupi yapfuura mushure mekunyora kufungisisa uku, muraraungu une mbiri wakangoerekana waumbwa pamusoro penzvimbo iyo mhuri yangu (nevamwe vanoverengeka) pavanonzwa kudaidzwa kuti vafambe, uye vakagara nguva refu kwazvo (takapakwa pano mubhazi redu rekushanya). Ehe, Mwari anovimbisa kuti mushure medutu riri kuuya, nguva inoshamisa yerunyararo ichave ichizvarwa apo rutendo, tariro, nerudo zvichakura. Ndinotenda Jesu akataura nezvekuuya ikoko Era rerunyararo paakati:
