Ubungqina obuncinci
Ndazalwa ndingumKatolika ongekazalwa. Ukususela kumncinci, ndamthanda uYesu. Ndafumana uvuyo lokuthanda, ukudumisa, kunye nokufunda ngaYe. Ubomi bentsapho yethu ubukhulu becala babonwabile yaye buzaliswe yintsini. Owu, siye salwa… kodwa sasikwazi nokuxolela. Safunda indlela yokuthandaza kunye. Safunda indlela yokudlala kunye. Ngexesha lokumka kwam ekhaya, intsapho yakowethu yayingabahlobo bam abasenyongweni, yaye ulwalamano lwam noYesu lwaqhubeka lukhula. Umhlaba wawubonakala ngathi ngumda omhle ...
Ngehlobo lonyaka wam we-19, ndandiqhelisela umculo weMisa nomhlobo wam xa kwakhala ifowuni. Utata wandicela ukuba ndigoduke. Ndambuza ukuba kutheni kodwa wathi, “Yiza ekhaya.” Ndaqhuba ndagoduka, ndathi xa ndiqala uhambo lwam ukuya kumnyango ongemva, ndaye ndavakalelwa kukuba ubomi bam buza kutshintsha. Xa ndivula ucango, usapho lwam lwalumi apho, lukhala lonke.
"Intoni??" Ndibuzile.
“Udade wenu usweleke kwingozi yemoto.”
ULori wayeneminyaka engama-22 ubudala, engumongikazi wokuphefumla. Ebemhle umntu ogcwalise igumbi yintsini. KwakungoMeyi 19, 1986. Endaweni yamaqondo obushushu aqhelekileyo aphakathi kwama-20 degrees, yayisisitshingitshane esingaqhelekanga. Wadlula kwindawo yekhephu kuhola wendlela ebangela urhatyazo olumhlophe, waze wawela indlela wangena kwilori ezayo. Abongikazi kunye noogqirha, oogxa bakhe, bazama ukumsindisa - kodwa akuzange kube njalo.
Udade wethu okuphela kwakhe wayengasekho… ilizwe elinomtsalane endalakhileyo lehla lawa. Bendibhidekile ndothukile. Ndikhule ndibukela abazali bam bepha amahlwempu, betyelela abantu abadala, benceda amadoda asentolongweni, bencedisa abasetyhini abakhulelweyo, baqala iqela lolutsha… kwaye ngaphezu kwako konke, sithande thina bantwana ngothando olunzulu. Ke ngoku, uThixo wayibiza intombi yabo ikhaya.
Kwiminyaka kamva, xa ndandifunqule umntwana wam wokuqala oyintombazana ezingalweni zam, ndandidla ngokucinga ngabazali bam bebambe uLori. Andizange ndikwazi ukuzibamba kodwa ndazibuza ukuba bekuya kuba nzima kangakanani ukuphulukana nobu bomi buncinane buxabisekileyo. Ndahlala phantsi ngenye imini, ndabeka ezo ngcinga kumculo ...
ndiyakuthanda sana
Ngentsimbi yesine kusasa xa intombi yam yazalwa
Uchukumise into enzulu kum
Ndandisoyikeka bubomi obutsha endabubonayo kwaye mna
Ndema apho ndalila
Ewe, uye wabamba into ethile ngaphakathi
Ndiyakuthanda baby, ndiyakuthanda baby
Uyinyama yam neyam
Ndiyakuthanda baby, ndiyakuthanda baby
Kangangoko uzakuhamba, ndiya kukuthanda
Kuyahlekisa ukuba ixesha lingakushiya ngasemva,
Ngalo lonke ixesha ekuhambeni
Wagqiba iminyaka elishumi elinesibhozo, ngoku akafane abonwe
Kwikhaya lethu elithe cwaka
Ngamanye amaxesha ndiziva ndililolo
Ndiyakuthanda baby, ndiyakuthanda baby
Uyinyama yam neyam
Ndiyakuthanda baby, ndiyakuthanda baby
Kangangoko uzakuhamba, ndiya kukuthanda
Ngamanye amaxesha ehlotyeni, igqabi likhawuleza ukuwa
Kudala phambi kokuba idubule ngokupheleleyo
Ke yonke imihla ngoku, ndiyaqubuda kwaye ndiyathandaza:
“Nkosi, bamba intombazana yam namhlanje,
Xa umbona, xelela utata wakhe ukuba: "
“Ndiyakuthanda mntanam, ndiyakuthanda mntanam
Uyinyama yam neyam
Ndiyakuthanda baby, ndiyakuthanda baby
Ndiyathandaza ukuba uhlale uyazi,
Yanga iNkosi Elungileyo ingakuxelela njalo
Ndiyakuthanda sana"

UThixo nguThixo - Andinguye
Xa ndandineminyaka engama-35 ubudala, umhlobo wam othandekayo kunye nomcebisi wam, umama wam, wasweleka ngumhlaza. Ndaphinda ndashiyeka ndiqonda ukuba uThixo unguThixo, kanti andinguye.
Asikuko nokuba ayiphengululeki imigwebo yakhe, azilandeki iindlela zakhe! Kuba ngubani na oyaziyo ingqiqo yeNkosi? Ngubani na othe waba ngumcebisi wayo? Okanye ngubani na omnike isipho ukuze abuye abuyekezwe? ( Roma 11:33-35 )
Ngamanye amazwi, ngaba uThixo usityala nto? Yayingenguye owaqalisa ukubandezeleka emhlabeni wethu. Wanika uluntu isipho sokungafi kwihlabathi elihle, nendalo enokumthanda nokumazi, nazo zonke izipho ezize naloo nto. Ngemvukelo yethu, ukufa kwangena ehlabathini kunye nomsantsa ongenasiphelo phakathi kwethu kunye nobuthixo kuphela uThixo ngokwakhe onako, waza wawuzalisa. Ngaba ayisithi thina abanetyala lothando nombulelo esimele silihlawule?
AyingoBawo kodwa inkululeko yethu yokuzikhethela esifanele simoyike!
Bafanele bakhalaze ngantoni abaphilayo? ngezono zabo! Masiziphengulule iindlela zethu, sizigocagoce, sibuyele kuYehova; ( IZililo 3:39-40 )
Ukufa nokuvuka kukaYesu akuzange kususe ukubandezeleka nokufa kodwa kwanikela oko injongo. Ngoku, ukubandezeleka kunokusisulungekisa kwaye ukufa kuba lisango eliya ngonaphakade.
Ukugula kuba yindlela yokuguqula... (Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. 1502)
IVangeli kaYohane ithi: “Wenjenje uThixo ukulithanda kwakhe ihlabathi, ude wancama uNyana wakhe okuphela kwamzeleyo, ukuze bonke abakholwayo kuye bangatshabalali, koko babe nobomi obungunaphakade.[1]John 3: 16 Ayitsho ukuba nabani na okholwayo kuye uya kuba nobomi obufezekileyo. Okanye ubomi obungenankathalo. Okanye ubomi obunempumelelo. Ithembisa ubomi obungunaphakade. Iimbandezelo, ukonakala, usizi… ezi ngoku zisiba kukutya athi ngalo uThixo avuthwe, asomeleze, aze ekugqibeleni asihlambululele uzuko lwanaphakade.
Siyazi ke ukuba zonke izinto zisebenzela okulungileyo kwabo bamthandayo uThixo, kwababiziweyo ngokwengqibo yakhe. ( Roma 8:28 )
Akabaxhwalekisi ngokuvumayo, engazisi ntlungu ebantwini. ( IZililo 3:33 )
Enyanisweni, ndandiyiphathe iNkosi njengomatshini wokuthengisa: ukuba ubani uziphatha kakuhle, wenza izinto ezilungileyo, uya kwiMisa, athandaze… konke kuya kuhamba kakuhle. Kodwa ukuba oko bekuyinyani, ngoko ngendingenguye uThixo kwaye nguYe oyenzayo my ibhidi?
Umfanekiso wam kaBawo wawufuna ukuphiliswa. Kwaqala ngokuqonda ukuba uThixo uthanda wonke umntu, kungekhona “amaKristu alungileyo” kuphela.
…Yena elenza ilanga laKhe liphume phezu kwabakhohlakeleyo nabalungileyo, nemvula eyinisa phezu kwabalungisayo nabangengomalungisa. ( Mateyu 5:45 )
Ukulunga kufunyanwa ngumntu wonke, ngokunjalo nokubandezeleka. Kodwa ukuba siyamvumela, uThixo unguMalusi Olungileyo oya kuhamba nathi “kwintlambo yethunzi lokufa” ( funda iNdumiso 23 ). Akakususi ukufa, kude kube sekupheleni kwehlabathi-kodwa uthembisa ukusikhusela kuko.
…umelwe kukuthi alawule ade azibeke phantsi kweenyawo zakhe zonke iintshaba. Olokugqibela utshaba oluya kubhangiswa kukufa; (Funda eyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 15:25-26.)
Ngobusuku bangaphambi komngcwabo kadade wethu, umama wahlala ecaleni kwebhedi yam waza wajonga mna nomntakwethu. “Bafana, sinezinto ezimbini esinokukhetha kuzo,” watsho ngokuzolileyo. Sisenokumgxeka uThixo ngaloo nto, sithi, ‘Emva kwayo yonke into esiyenzileyo, yini na ukuba usenjenje? Okanye,” waqhubeka umama, “sinokuyithemba loo nto UYesu ilapha nathi ngoku. Ukuba Usibambile kwaye ekhala kunye nathi, kwaye Uyakusinceda sidlule koku.” Kwaye Wenza.
Indawo Yokusabela Ethembekileyo
UJohn Paul II wakha wathi:
UYesu uyafuna, kuba unqwenela ulonwabo lwethu lwenene. Icawe ifuna abangcwele. Bonke babizelwe ebungcweleni, kwaye abantu abangcwele bodwa banokuhlaziya ubuntu. -UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, uMyalezo weSuku loLutsha lweHlabathi ka-2005, eVictoria City, Agasti 27, 2004, Zenit
UPope Benedict kamva wongeza,
UKristu akazange athembise ubomi obulula. Abo banqwenela ukuthuthuzelwa batsalele inombolo engeyiyo. Endaweni yoko usibonisa indlela eya kwizinto ezinkulu, ezilungileyo, kubomi bobunyani. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Idilesi yeePilgrim zaseJamani, ngoAprili 25, 2005
"Izinto ezinkulu, ezilungileyo, ubomi obuyinyani" - oku kunokwenzeka kwi phakathi ukubandezeleka, kanye kuba sinoBawo onothando osixhasayo. Usithumela uNyana wakhe ukuba asivulele indlela eya eZulwini. Usithumela uMoya ukuze sibe noBomi namandla akhe. Kwaye usigcina enyanisweni ukuze sihlale sikhululekile.
Kwaye xa sisilela? “Ukuba sithi sizivume izono zethu, uthembekile, ulilungisa, ukuba asixolele izono zethu, asihlambulule kuko konke ukungalungisi.”[2]1 John 1: 9 UThixo akanguye uzwilakhe esimenze ukuba abe nguye.
Iinceba zikaYehova azipheli, iimfesane zakhe azipheli; ziyahlaziyeka imiso ngemiso; kukhulu ukuthembeka kwakho. ( IZililo 3:22-23 )
Kuthekani ngokugula, ukulahlekelwa, ukufa nokubandezeleka? Nali idinga likaBawo:
Nokuba zingashukuma iintaba, neenduli zishukume, yona inceba yam ayisayi kushukunyiswa kuwe, ungashukumi nomnqophiso wam woxolo; utsho onemfesane kuwe, uYehova. ( Isaya 54:10 )
Izithembiso zikaThixo kobu bomi azikho malunga nokugcina intuthuzelo yakho kodwa zigcina wena uxolo. Fr. UStan Fortuna CFR wayedla ngoku, “Sonke siza kubandezeleka. Unokuva ubunzima kunye noKristu okanye ubandezeleke ngaphandle kwakhe. Ndiza kubandezeleka kunye noKristu.
Xa uYesu wayethandaza kuYise, wathi:
Andiceli ukuba ubasuse ehlabathini; ndicela ukuba ubagcine kuyo uMtyholi. ( Yohane 17:15 )
Ngamanye amazwi, “Andikuceli ukuba ususe ububi bokubandezeleka — iminqamlezo yabo, eyimfuneko ekuhlanjululweni kwabo. Ndicela ukuba ubathintele ububi obubi kunabo bonke: inkohliso kaSathana eyayiza kubahlukanisa nam ngonaphakade.
Eli likhusi uBawo aninika lona umzuzu ngamnye. Ngawo la amaphiko Wolula njengesikhukukazi, ukuba agcine usindiso lwakho ukuze umazi kwaye umthande uBawo wakho waseZulwini ngonaphakade.
Kunokuba uzifihle kuThixo, qalisa ukuzimela in Yena. Yiba nomfanekiso-ngqondweni wakho usemathangeni kaBawo, ezingalo Zakhe zikungqongile xa uthandaza ngale ngoma, noYesu noMoya oyiNgcwele ekungqongile ngothando lwabo...
