Ukuba livumba likaThixo

 

NINI ungena kwigumbi elineentyatyambo ezintsha, ngokuyintloko zihleli nje. Nangona kunjalo, yabo livumba ikufikelela kwaye igcwalise izivamvo zakho ngovuyo. Kananjalo, indoda okanye umfazi ongcwele usenokungafuneki ukuba athethe okanye enze lukhulu phambi komnye, kuba ivumba lobungcwele babo lanele ukubamba umoya kabani.

Kukho umahluko omkhulu phakathi kwetalente-yedwa, kunye ne ngcwele. Baninzi abantu emzimbeni kaKristu abaphuphuma izipho… kodwa abenza impembelelo encinci kubomi babanye. Kwaye kukho abo bathi, phezu kwazo nje iitalente zabo okanye baswele, balishiye “ivumba likaKristu” lihleli emphefumlweni womnye. Oko kungenxa yokuba bangabantu abamanyene noThixo, okhoyo uthando, othi ke agxininise onke amazwi abo, isenzo, kunye nobukho ngoMoya oyiNgcwele. ^[1]cf. Ubungcwele boqobo Kanye njengokuba indoda nomfazi beba nyama-nye, ngokunjalo, nomKristu ohleli kuYesu uba ngumzimba omnye naye ngokwenene, ethabatha ivumba lakhe, ivumba elimnandi. uthando.

... ukuba ndinabo nobuprofeti, ndizazi iimfihlelo zonke, ndinako konke ukwazi, ndinalo lonke ukholo, ngokokude ndisuse iintaba, kodwa ndingenalo uthando, andinto yanto. (Funda eyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 13:2.)

Kuba olu thando lungaphezulu kwemisebenzi emihle, eyimfuneko ngoku. Bubomi bukaThixo obungaphaya kwendalo obubonakalisa isimilo sikaKristu:

Uthando luzeka kade umsindo, lunobubele; uthando alunakhwele, alunakratshi; alikhukhumali okanye alikrwada. Uthando alunyanzelisi kweyalo indlela; ayicaphuki okanye ayicaphuki; Aluvuyeli kokubi, kodwa luvuyisana nokulungileyo; (1 Kor 13:4-6)

Olo thando bungcwele bukaKristu. Kwaye kufuneka silishiye eli vumba lamandla angaphezu kwawemvelo naphi na apho sihamba khona, nokuba kuseofisini, ekhaya, esikolweni, kwigumbi lokutshisela, kwindawo yentengiso, okanye kwindawo yokuhlala.

Icawe ifuna abangcwele. Bonke babizelwe ebungcweleni, kwaye abantu abangcwele bodwa banokuhlaziya ubuntu. —SAINT JOHN PAUL II, UMyalezo woSuku loLutsha lweHlabathi ngo-2005, kwisiXeko saseVatican, ngo-Agasti 27, 2004, Zenit.org

 

UKUVANGELA NGAMANDLA

Umzekelo ogqibeleleyo kunye nomzekelo wokuba livumba elimnandi likaThixo ufumaneka kwiMifihlakalo Evuyisayo yeRosari.

UMariya, nangona "ubuthathaka" bakhe njengentombazana eselula, eneminyaka elishumi elinesihlanu ubudala, umnika "into" epheleleyo kuThixo. Ngokunjalo, uMoya oyiNgcwele ithunzi yena, kwaye uqalisa ukubonisa ubukho bukaYesu, “uLizwi enziwe inyama.” UMariya uthobela, uthobekile, uthobeke kakhulu, ulahliwe ekwenzeni ukuthanda kukaThixo, ukulungele ukuthanda ummelwane wakhe, kangangokuba kwa kanye ubukho bakhe buba “lilizwi.” Iba yi ivumba elimnandi likaThixo. Ngoko xa efika kwikhaya likamza wakhe uElizabhete, umbuliso wakhe nje wanele ukuvuthisa a ilangatye lothando entliziyweni yomzala wakhe:

Ke kaloku, akuwuva uElizabhete umbuliso kaMariya, lwaxhuma usana esizalweni sakhe, noElizabhete, ezele nguMoya oyiNgcwele, wadanduluka ngezwi elikhulu, wathi, Unentsikelelo wena phakathi kwabafazi; Kwenzeka ntoni na kum, ukuba ndide ndifikelwe ngunina weNkosi yam? Kuthe kwakufika izwi lombuliso wakho ezindlebeni zam, lwasuka lwaxhuma usana esiswini sam. Ninoyolo, nina nakholwayo ukuba oko kwathethwa kuni yiNkosi kuya kwenzeka. ( Luka 1:41-44 )

Asazi ukuba uElizabeth unjani uyazi ukuba uMsindisi ungaphakathi kukaMariya. Kodwa yena Umoya uyazi kwaye uyabubona ubukho bukaThixo, kwaye uzalisa uElizabhete ngovuyo.

Eli linqanaba elahlukileyo lonke lovangelo oludlula amagama—bubungqina be ingcwele. Kwaye sibona oku kusenzeka ngokuphindaphindiweyo kubomi bukaYesu. "Ndilandele,” Uthi kule ndoda okanye kulaa mfazi, baze bashiye yonke into! Ndiyathetha, oku akukho ngqiqweni! Ukushiya indawo kabani yobutofotofo, ukushiya ukhuseleko lomsebenzi, ukuzichanaba ekugculelweni okanye ukubhenca izono zikabani esidlangalaleni asikuko oko kwenziwa ngabantu “banengqiqo”. Kodwa yiloo nto kanye eyenziwa nguMateyu, uPetros, uMagadala, uZakeyu, uPawulos, njl. Ngoba? Ngenxa yokuba umoya wabo wawutsalwa livumba elimnandi likaThixo. Batsalwa kumthombo we amanzi aphilileyo, nto leyo enxanelwe wonke umntu. Sinxanelwe uThixo, kwaye xa simfumana kwenye, sifuna okungakumbi. Oku kukodwa kufanele kukunika kunye nam ukuzithemba kokungena ngenkalipho ezintliziyweni zabantu: sinento abayifunayookanye, Umntu... yaye ihlabathi lilinde ukuba liphinde lidlule eli vumba likaKristu.

Kakade ke, xa abanye benokuthi badibane noThixo kuthi, impendulo yabo ayisoloko ifana nale ikhankanywe ngasentla. Ngamanye amaxesha, baya kusigatya ngokupheleleyo kuba ivumba lobungcwele libagweba ivumba lesono ezintliziyweni zabo. Ngaloo ndlela, iSt.

Ndibulela kuye uThixo, othi ekuKristu hlala esikhokela ngoloyiso, kwaye ngathi usinyibilikisa ivumba lolwazi lwayo naphina. Kuba thina silivumba elimnandi likaKristu kuye uThixo phakathi kwabasindiswayo naphakathi kwabatshabalalayo; kwabanye silivumba lokufa elisa ekufeni; kwabanye silivumba lobomi elisa ebomini... ndikuKristu. (2 Kor. 2: 14-17)

Ewe, simele sibe njalo “kuKristu” ukuze enze eli vumba lobuthixo...

 

UBUnyulu bentliziyo

Singenza njani ukuba sibe livumba elimnandi likaThixo? Kaloku, ukuba nathi siqhubeka nevumba lesono, ngubani oya kutsaleleka kuthi? Ukuba intetho yethu, izenzo kunye neemvakalelo zethu zibonisa umntu "osenyameni", ngoko asinanto yokunikela ngehlabathi, ngaphandle kokuba mhlawumbi, ihlazo.

Omnye wemixholo eyomeleleyo evela kubupopu kaPope Francis sisilumkiso ngokuchasene “nomoya wehlabathi” osusa uKristu entliziyweni yomntu.

'Xa umntu eqokelela isono, uphelelwa ngamandla akho okusabela uze uqalise ukubola.' Nokuba urhwaphilizo lubonakala lukunika ulonwabo, amandla kwaye lukwenza uzive wanelisekile yisiqu sakho, wathi, ekugqibeleni akwenzeki. ngokuba ayishiyi indawo yeNkosi, yenguquko… Eyona imbi kakhulu [ukonakala] ngumoya wehlabathi!’ —UPOPE FRANCIS, Homily, kwisiXeko saseVatican, ngoNovemba 27, 2014; Zenit

Ngoko yibani ngabaxelisa uThixo, ngokwabantwana abaziintanda, nihlale eluthandweni, kwanjengokuba uKristu wasithandayo, wazinikela ngenxa yethu, ukuba abe lidini kuye uThixo, ukuba libe livumba elimnandi. Umbulo, nakuphi na ukungcola, nokubawa, makungakhe kukhankanywe phakathi kwenu, njengoko kubafaneleyo abangcwele, kwanamanyala, nentetho yobuyatha, nobuhiba, leyo engafanelekanga; makube yimibulelo. ( Efe 5:1-4 )

UPawulos ufundisa iinkalo ezimbini zobomi bobuKristu, i ingaphakathi kwaye ngaphandle ubomi obuquka ukuba “kuKristu.” Bekunye benza i ubunyulu bentliziyo imfuneko yokukhupha ivumba elimnandi likaThixo:

I. Ubomi Bangaphakathi

Enye yeengxaki ezinkulu eCaweni namhlanje kukuba ambalwa amaKrestu anobomi bangaphakathi. Yintoni lento? Ubomi bobuhlobo, bomthandazo, ukucamngca, nokucamngca ngoThixo. ^[2]cf. Ngomthandazo kwaye Okungakumbi Emthandazweni Kwamanye amaKatolika, ubomi bawo bomthandazo buqala ngeCawa kusasa kwaye buphele kwiyure kamva. Kodwa akukho mfuneko yokuba iidiliya zikhule zibe sempilweni ngokujinga iyure enye ngeveki emdiliyeni njengokuba umphefumlo obhaptiziweyo unokukhulela ebungcweleni ngokuba nolwalamano olungenamsebenzi noBawo. Kuba,

Umthandazo bubomi bentliziyo entsha. - Ikatekizim yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-2697

Ngaphandle komthandazo ubomi, ngaphandle kokuba "udityaniswe" noMdiliya ukwenzela ukuba i-Sap yoMoya oyiNgcwele iqhube, intliziyo ebhaptiziweyo iyafa, kwaye iphunga lokubola kunye nokubola ekugqibeleni liya kuba livumba kuphela elithwala umphefumlo.

II. Ubomi bangaphandle

Kwelinye icala, umntu unokuthandaza izihlandlo ezininzi, aye kwiMisa yonke imihla, kwaye aye kwimisitho emininzi yokomoya… ukungcola yenyama neenkanuko zayo, ngaphandle kokuba ingaphakathi lityhilwe ngaphandle, ngoko imbewu emangalisayo yeLizwi likaThixo, etyalwe emthandazweni, iya kuba...

… beminxeke ngamaxhala nobutyebi neziyolo zobu bomi, baze [ba]silele ukuvelisa isiqhamo esivuthiweyo. ( Luka 8:14 )

Sesi “siqhamo sivuthiweyo” esithwala ivumba likaKrestu ehlabathini. Ngaloo ndlela, ubomi bangaphakathi kunye nangaphandle budibanisa ukwenza ivumba lobungcwele bokwenyani.

 

INDLELA YOKUBA LIQHUBILE LAKHE...

Ndivumele ndiqukumbele ngokwabelana ngala mazwi abalaseleyo, kutyholwa ukuba asuka kwiNenekazi Lethu, ukuya phambili njani ukuze sibe livumba elimnandi likaThixo ehlabathini...

Ivumba elithozamisayo lobomi bukaThixo malibe kuwe: ivumba elimnandi lobabalo olukunxibileyo, lobulumko obukukhanyiselayo, lothando olukukhokelayo, lomthandazo okuxhasayo, wokuzohlwaya okuhlambululayo.

Hlaziya ingqondo yakho ...

Amehlo makabe zizipili zomphefumlo ngokwenene. Bavule ukuze bamkele kwaye banike ukukhanya kwesidima kunye nobabalo, kwaye bavale kubo bonke ububi kunye nempembelelo yesono.

Ulwimi malukhululeke ukuze lwenza amazwi okulunga, othando nenyaniso, kwaye ke ngoko makuthi cwaka okunzulu ngalo lonke ixesha kujikeleze ilizwe. Ukwakhiwa kwegama ngalinye.

Ingqondo mayivuleleke kuphela kwiingcinga zoxolo nenceba, zokuqonda nosindiso, ingaze ingcoliswe kukugwetywa nokugxekwa, singasathethi ke ngobubi nokugwetywa.

Intliziyo mayivaleke ngokuqinileyo kulo lonke unxulumano olungafanelekanga nesiqu sakho, kwizidalwa nakwilizwe ohlala kulo, ukuze lizivulelele kuphela kwinzaliseko yothando lukaThixo nommelwane.

Andizange, njengangoku abaninzi boonyana bam abawileyo abalufunayo uthando lwakho olunyulu nolwemvelo, ukuze basindiswe. KwiNtliziyo yam engaguqukiyo ndiya kunibumba ngamnye kuni ngobunyulu bothando. Nantsi inguquko endiyicelayo kuni, bantwana bam; nantsi into eniya kuyenza, ukuze niwulungiselele umsebenzi onilindeleyo, nibaleke kwimigibe eyingozi, athe utshaba lwam luyibeke kuni.
