ISIKHUMBUZO SE-ST. IPIO YEPIETRELCIAN
NYE yezona zinto zibuhlungu kwiCawa yamaKatolika yanamhlanje, ngakumbi eNtshona, yi ukulahleka konqulo. Kubonakala namhlanje ngokungathi ukucula (uhlobo olunye lokudumisa) eCaweni kukhethwa ngokuzithandela, kunokuba ibe yinxalenye yomthandazo we-liturgical.
Xa iNkosi yathululela uMoya oyiNgcwele kwiCawe yamaKhatholika ngeminyaka engamashumi amathandathu emva koko kwaziwa ngokuba “kukuhlaziya okukhoyo”, kwaqhuma ukunqula nokudumisa uThixo! Ndizibonele kumashumi eminyaka indlela imiphefumlo emininzi eguqulwe ngayo njengoko yayihamba ngaphaya kwemimandla yentuthuzelo kwaye yaqala ukunqula uThixo ngokusuka entliziyweni (ndiza kwabelana ngobungqina bam apha ngezantsi). Ndade ndabona ukuphiliswa ngokwenyama ngokuncoma nje!
Ukudumisa okanye ukusikelela okanye ukuhlonela uThixo asiyiyo "iPentekoste" okanye "into enomdla". Kubalulekile kwisiseko somntu; yingqalo yobukho bakhe:
I ntsi kelelo Ivakalisa intshukumo esisiseko yomthandazo wobuKristu: kukudibana phakathi kukaThixo nomntu… kuba uThixo uyayisikelela, intliziyo yomntu inokuthi imbuyekeze isikelele Lowo ungumnini wazo zonke iintsikelelo… lithatha Sisimo sengqondo sokuqala somntu ukuvuma ukuba usisidalwa phambi koMdali wakhe. -ICatechism yeCawa yamaKatolika (CCC), 2626; Xnumx
Nasi isitshixo sokuba kutheni ukudumisa uThixo kusikelela kwaye kuphilisa kwaye kukhulula intliziyo yomntu: yintengiselwano yobuthixo apho sidumisa khona uThixo, kwaye uThixo usinika ubuqu bakhe.
… Ungcwele, uhleli etroneni kaSirayeli (INdumiso 22: 3, RSV)
Ezinye iinguqulelo zifundeka ngolu hlobo:
UThixo uhlala ezindumisweni zabantu bakhe (INdumiso 22: 3)
Xa sidumisa uThixo, uza kuthi, kwaye ubeka iintliziyo zethu, ahlala kuzo. Ngaba uYesu akazange athembise ukuba oku kuya kwenzeka?
Ukuba umntu uyandithanda, woligcina ilizwi lam; wothi noBawo amthande, size kuye, sihlale naye. (UJohn 14: 23)
Ukudumisa uThixo kukuMthanda, kuba indumiso kukwamkeleka ukulunga kukaThixo kwaye yakhe uthando. UThixo uza kuthi, size emva koko singene ebusweni bakhe:
Ngenani emasangweni akhe nibulela, Neentendelezo zakhe ninombulelo; (INdu. 100: 4)
Ebukhweni bukaThixo, ububi buyabaleka, imimangaliso iyakhululwa, kwaye kwenzeka inguqu. Ndikubonile kwaye ndikubonile oku ndedwa, ngokunjalo nakwindawo zonqulo lwendibaniselwano. Ngoku, ndinibhalela kwimeko yedabi lokomoya. Mamela okwenzekayo kumagunya obumnyama xa siqala ukudumisa:
Abathembekileyo mababe nemihlali ngozuko; iindumiso zikaThixo eziphakamileyo mazibe semqaleni wazo, nezikrele ezintlangothi-mbini ezandleni zazo, ukuze zenze impindezelo ezintlangeni nokohlwaya abantu, zibabambe ookumkani bazo ngemixokelelwane, nezidwangube zazo ngamakhamandela esinyithi, ukuze zibaphumeze; umgwebo ubhaliwe! Luzuko kubo bonke abathembekileyo bakhe. Dumisa inkosi! (INdu. 149: 5-9)
Njengoko uPawulos ekhumbuza iBandla leTestamente eNtsha, idabi labo alisekho ngenyama negazi kodwa li:
… Izilawuli, namagunya, kunye nabalawuli behlabathi bobu bumnyama bangoku, kunye noomoya abakhohlakeleyo emazulwini. (Efese 6:12))
Yindumiso yethu, ngakumbi xa sicula okanye sivakalisa iinyaniso zikaThixo eziseLizwini likaThixo (cf. Efe. 5:19) eziba ngathi likrele elintlangothi-mbini, zibopha iziphathamandla namandla ngemixokelelwane kaThixo zenze umgwebo kwiingelosi eziwileyo! Isebenza kanjani lento?
… Umthandazo wethu inyuka ngoMoya oyiNgcwele ngoKrestu kuye uYise- siyamsikelela ngokusikelela kwethu; icela ubabalo loMoya oyiNgcwele ukuba yehla usisikelela ngoKristu ovela kuYise. -CCC, 2627
U-Kristu uMlamli wethu osebenza ngathi, ubopha iintshaba zethu zokomoya ngamandla oMoya oyiNgcwele. Indumiso yindlela yethu yokuthatha inxaxheba kumsebenzi kaKrestu osindisayo njengoMzimba waKhe. Indumiso ukholo kwizenzo, kwaye "ukholo ludumo olumsulwa"CCC 2642).
… Nibe nesabelo koku kuzaliseka kuye, oyintloko yabo bonke ubulawuli namandla. (Kol 2: 9)
Umbulelo wamalungu oMzimba athatha inxaxheba kwiNtloko zawo. -CCC 2637
Okokugqibela, indumiso sisimo sengqondo se umntwana kaThixoIsimo sengqondo esingenakubudla ilifa ubukumkani bezulu ngaphandle kwakhe (Mat 18: 3). KwiTestamente eNdala, amagama athi “mbonge” nokuthi “enkosi” ahlala etshintshana. Igama "enkosi" livela kwisiHebhere yadah Ethelekisa indumiso, ngokunjalo ukulele echaza unqulo. Omabini la magama athetha "ukolula okanye ukulahla izandla". Yiyo loo nto, kuMisa ngexesha loMthandazo we-Ekaristi (igama Umthendeleko lithetha "umbulelo"), umbingeleli wolula izandla zakhe emmandleni wokudumisa nokubulela.
Kulungile, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha kuyimfuneko ukunqula uThixo ngomzimba wethu uphela. Ukusebenzisa umzimba wethu kunokuba ngumqondiso kunye nokholo lokholo lwethu; iyasinceda ukuba sikhulule ukholo lwethu:
Singumzimba nomoya, kwaye sinamava okuba siguqulele iimvakalelo zethu ngaphandle. Kuya kufuneka sithandaze kunye nobuntu bethu bonke ukuba sinike onke amandla kunokwenzeka kwisicelo sethu.-CCC 2702
Kodwa eyona nto ibalulekileyo yile ukuma kwentliziyo. Ukuba ngumntwana kuthetha ukuthembela ngokupheleleyo kuThixo zonke imeko, nokuba iintsapho zethu okanye umhlaba uyawa.
Kuzo zonke iimeko bulelani oku kukuthanda kukaThixo ngani kuKristu Yesu. (1 Tes. 5: 18)
Ayisiyongxaki yokudumisa uThixo ebunzimeni. Endaweni yoko, yindlela yokudumisa ezisa iintsikelelo zikaThixo kunye nobukho phakathi kwethu ukuze abe yiNkosi yazo zonke iimeko. Ithi: “Nkosi, unguThixo, uyivumele nam le nto ukuba yenzeke kum. Yesu, ndithembele kuwe. Ndiyabulela ngeli tyala olivumelekileyo ukuze kulunge kum… ”
Ukudumisa yindlela okanye umthandazo oqonda ngokukhawuleza ukuba uThixo nguThixo. -CCC 2639
Indumiso enje ngale, okanye ke, njalo intliziyo efana nomntwana njengoko le iba yindawo efanelekileyo nenqwenelekayo ukuba ahlale kuyo uThixo.
AMABALI AMATHATHU OKWENYANISO OKUTHANDAZA INKULULEKO
NDIMDUMISE KWIMEKO EPHELELEYO
Ungatyhafi xa usibona esi sihlwele sikhulu, kuba idabi asilolakho kodwa lelikaThixo. Ngomso phumani niye kubahlangabeza, uNdikhoyo uya kuba nani.
Bacula besithi: "Bulelani kuNdikhoyo, kuba ingunaphakade inceba yakhe." Bathe bakuqala ukumemelela nokudumisa, uYehova wabafikisela abalaleli oonyana baka-Amon, ukuba abatshabalalise. (2 Kronike 20: 15-16, 21-23)
II. DUMISA NAKWIIMEKO EBUNZIMA
Emva kokubabetha kaninzi, [oomantyi] babafaka [uPawulos noSilas] entolongweni… kwelona gumbi lingaphakathi beqinisa iinyawo zabo esibondeni.
Malunga nasezinzulwini zobusuku, xa uPawulos noSilas babethandaza, becula iingoma beculela uThixo, xa amabanjwa emamele, ngequbuliso kwabakho inyikima enkulu kangangokuba iziseko zentolongo zagungqa. zavuleka zonke iingcango, namatyathanga abo onke akhululwa. (Izenzo 16: 23-26)
III. DUMISA ISIBOPHELELO SOKOMOYA — UBUNGQINA BAM
KWIMINYAKA yokuqala yobulungiseleli bam, sasibamba iintlanganiso qho ngenyanga kwenye yeeCawa zamaKatolika zasekuhlaleni. Yayiyiyure ezimbini ngorhatya yokudumisa kunye nokunqula umculo onobungqina okanye ukufundisa embindini. Yayilixesha elinamandla apho sabona ukuguqulwa okuninzi kunye nenguquko enzulu.
Kwiveki enye, iinkokheli zeqela zazicwangcise intlanganiso. Ndikhumbula ndisendleleni eya apho ndineli lifu limnyama lijinga phezu kwam. Kudala ndizamana nesono esithile ixesha elide. Kule veki, bendinayo ngempela Wazabalaza, kwaye wasilela kakubi. Ndaziva ndingenakuzinceda, kwaye ngaphezu kwako konke, ndineentloni ngokunzulu. Apha ndandiyinkokheli yomculo… kwaye ukusilela nokudana okunje.
Kwintlanganiso, baqala ukuhambisa izingoma. Andizange ndive ngathi ndicula konke konke, okanye mandithi, andiziva ufanelekile ukucula. Kodwa bendisazi ngokwaneleyo njengenkokeli yonqulo ukuba ukudumisa uThixo yinto endimtyala yona, hayi kuba ndiziva ndinjalo, kodwa kuba enguThixo. Ngaphandle koko, indumiso sisenzo sokholo… kwaye ukholo lunokuhambisa iintaba. Ndaqala ke ukucula. Ndaqala ndancoma.
Ndenza njalo, ndawuva uMoya oyiNgcwele usihla phezu kwam. Umzimba wam ngokoqobo waqalisa ukungcangcazela. Andizanga ndiyokukhangela amava angaphezu kwendalo, okanye ndizame ukwenza iqela le-hype. Into eyayisenzeka kum yayi yenene.
Ngesiquphe, ndabona entliziyweni yam ngokungathi ndikhuliswa kwilifti engenazingcango… ndinyuselwe kwinto endandiyibona ngandlel 'ithile ukuba ligumbi lobukumkani likaThixo. Into endiyibonileyo yayingumgangatho weglasi yekristale. Mna Wayesazi Ndandilapho phambi koThixo. Kwakumnandi kakhulu. Ndiluva uthando lwaKhe nenceba yakhe kum, endihlamba ubutyala bam nokungcola nokungaphumeleli. Bendiphiliswa nguLuthando.
Kwaye xa ndishiya ngobo busuku, amandla aloo mkhwa ebomini bam phukile. Andazi ukuba uThixo wenze njani, into endiyaziyo kukuba uyenzile: Undikhulule-kwaye unanamhla.
Qala ukudumisa uThixo ezilingweni zakho, kwiintsapho zakho, kwiicawe zakho, kwaye ujonge amandla kaThixo esenza oko akuthembisileyo:
Undithambisele ukuzisa iindaba ezilungileyo kumahlwempu. Undithume ukuba ndibhengeze inkululeko kubathinjwa, Nokubuyiselwa kokubona kwabaziimfama, Ndindulule abacudisiweyo bakhululeke, Ndivakalise umnyaka owamkelekileyo eNkosini. (Luka 4: 18-19)
