Ekubuyeni kwakho eYiputa, khangela ukuba uyenze phambi koFaro yonke imisebenzi ebalulekileyo, endiyibeke esandleni sakho. Ndiya kumenza abe lukhuni ke, ukuze angabandululi abantu. (Eks 4:21)
NDINGA yiva emphefumlweni wam njengoko siqhubayo saya kumda wase-US phezolo. Ndijonge umfazi wam ndathi, "Ingathi sisondela eMpuma Jamani." Imvakalelo nje.
Nangona amaxwebhu ethu kunye neenkcukacha zilungelelaniswe (ngokusekwe kulokho kwakufuneka ngaphambili ukuwela umda), bendisazi ukuba sizobakhona kolunye uvavanyo.
Iiarhente zemida yaseMelika azange zisiphoxe.
Bakhonkotha abantwana bethu, basityhola ngokuxoka, kwaye emva kweeyure ezintathu zokuncinwa, ukuprintwa kweminwe, nokuphikiswa emva kokuphikisana, basibuyisela eCanada. Ezi arhente zazinzima njengoFaro. Sada sathembisa ukuba siza kuzihlawulela ngokwethu iindleko zethu ngeeleta ezivela ngabefundisi eziqinisekisa ukuthembeka kwethu — kodwa lo mphathi wathi ukhetha ukungasithembi! Ewe, abo banqolobi baseCanada kunye nezixhobo zabo zokutshabalalisa. Ewe, iVangeli yinto eyingozi. (Into elungileyo abayifumananga iiRosari zethu. Ewe, ezo are izixhobo ngokweSt. Pio.)
Basixelele ukuba ukusukela ngeyoMqungu, kwanonyaka onesiqingatha ubudala bayakufuna ipaspoti…
Kuyathakazelisa kuba bendizokubhalela kuhlaselo lwentshaba lomzimba kaKristu, ngakumbi kwiintsapho nasemitshatweni. Eyona njongo yakhe iphambili yile ukudimazeka. Kwaye usebenze ixesha elongezelelekileyo kubulungiseleli bethu, njengoko enzile nakuni abaninzi. Kodwa asikwazi ukunikezela. Idabi lelikaYehova, kwaye akasayi kusishiya nangona kubonakala ngathi uthatha isihlalo sangasemva ngamanye amaxesha. Eli lixesha lokholo, kwaye ukholo luhlala luhamba ebumnyameni obupheleleyo. Ukholo olulingana nokhozo lwemostade lungazishukumisa iintaba. Kodwa kufuneka sithembele kubulumko bukaThixo ukuba zeziphi iintaba afuna zisuswe.
Ngokubhekisele kwishedyuli yobulungiseleli bethu eWashington urhulumente kule veki, sizisola ngokurhoxisa yonke imicimbi yethu. Sithumela uxolo lwethu olunzulu kubo bonke abakhuthazi abasebenza ngokungakhathali, ngokuzithandela ixesha labo ukwenza le misebenzi ibekhona. Ewe kunjalo, ndibuhlungu kakhulu kuye nabani na kuni ocebe ukuya okanye osele eqalile uhambo lwakho oluya eWashington.
INkosi ikuvumele oku, kwaye ke siyakwamkela oku njengokuthanda kwayo. Kodwa simamele ngenyameko kwinto afuna ukusifundisa ngayo.
AMANDLA OKUSETYENZISWA KWAMANDLA NGOKUPHELELEYO NGOKUPHELELEYO
Mhlawumbi yenye umqondiso wamaxesha. Kumatyeli aliqela endinqamleza ukungena eMelika kule minyaka mibini idlulileyo, ndibone ukusetyenziswa gwenxa kwamandla-kungekuphela nje kum, kodwa nakwabanye-oko kungashiyanga inkumbulo yam ngokulula. Idemokhrasi ayiqinisekisi uxolo. Luxolo lukaThixo olusentliziyweni yomntu oluqinisekisa uxolo. Ngokunikwa iimeko ezifanelekileyo, namandla aguqulwe abo iintliziyo zabo zingalawulwa kukulunga, iMelika ayikude kude nohlobo lwamapolisa amaJamani awayekhe acinga ukuba ayinakwenzeka kwilizwe labo "ledemokhrasi".
Intliziyo yam ibuhlungu namhlanje kwabo bahamba bengenatyala eMelika kodwa baphathwa njengezaphuli mthetho. Ukuba baphatha abamelwane babo — umvangeli waseCanada — ngolu hlobo, baphathwa njani abo basemzini? Ewe, ndizibonele ngokwam indlela abanye abantu abanethemba lokungena kweli lizwe abaphethwe ngayo njengabaqeqeshwe kwinkampu ye-Marine boot camp. Kwaye amabali aphuma kwindawo ebizwa ngokuba "ngamaziko okuvalelwa" anje Guantanamo Bay bayaphola.
(Nceda qaphela, Andibhekiseli kubo bonke abantu baseMelika, kodwa kwabo basebenzisa kakubi amandla. Sibathanda kakhulu abantu baseMelika abasoloko besibonisa uthando olukhulu, ukholo kunye nobubele.)
INGXAKI
I-America isengxakini. Kuye kwacaca ngakumbi ukuba ayilawulwa luxolo, kodwa yiparanoia. USt. John wabhala ukuba,
Uthando olugqibeleleyo lulukhuphela ngaphandle uloyiko. (1 Yoh.4: 18)
Ekujikeni, uloyiko olugqibeleleyo lukhupha uthando. Sigxotha uthando ngokuba nesikrokro kunokuba nesisa; ngokutyhola endaweni yokuhlala; Ngokubetha kwangaphambili ngaphandle kokujika esinye isidlele. Ewe, imfazwe e-Iraq sisiqhamo soloyiko, ngokusekwe kwiimeko esele sifunde ukuba azikho. Isiqhamo ibikukufa kwamashumi amawaka abantu abamsulwa kunye nemfazwe ekuyo yonke indawo ngobunqolobi eyenza uMlo obandayo uzive uthambile. Kwaye ngoku, kuyathethwa kwakhona ngokuhlasela i-Iran "ngesitrayikhi esandula ukukhutshwa."
Yeyiphi indawo iMelika ekuyo! Iingxangxasi zoloyiko ziphezulu, kwaye ziyaqhekeka… ziyawa. Kodwa uThixo uhlala enika ithemba. Inguquko, ukuzila ukutya, umthandazo. Oku kunokumisa kwanemithetho yendalo, utshilo uMary.
Imiceli mngeni emikhulu ejongene nehlabathi ekuqaleni kwale Millennium intsha isikhokelela ekucingeni ukuba kuphela ngongenelelo oluvela phezulu, olunokukwazi ukukhokela iintliziyo zabo bahlala kwiimeko zongquzulwano kunye nabo balawula ukupheliswa kweentlanga, abanokunika isizathu sethemba ngekamva eliqaqambileyo. IRosari ngohlobo lwayo kuthandazelwa uxolo... —UAPOPE JOHN PAUL II, URosarium Virginis Mariae, n. I-40
Ndinqwenela ukuba ndingathi iCanada inesenzo sayo kunye. Kodwa ayenzi njalo. Amava emida ebengasoloko emnandi kumaMelika nawo. Lilixa eli ukuba thandaza ngamandla kwiinkokheli zethu.
Ewe, ndiza kubhala ngokudimazeka kungekudala. Kodwa kuqala kufuneka ndenze usapho lwam luhambe iikhilomitha eziliwaka ukuqhuba ukubuyela ekhaya.
