Oonyana abathandekayo kunye neentombi

 

PHA luninzi ulutsha olufundayo ILizwi ngoku Kunye neentsapho ezindixelele ukuba zabelana ngezi zinto zibhaliweyo ecaleni kwetafile. Omnye umama wabhala:

Utshintshe ilizwe losapho lwam ngenxa yeeleta-ndaba ndizifundileyo ndizigqithisela kuwe. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba isipho sakho sisinceda ukuba siphile ubomi "obungcwele" (Ndithetha ukuba kwindlela yokuthandaza rhoqo, ukuthemba uMariya ngakumbi, uYesu ngakumbi, ukuya kuVuma ngendlela enentsingiselo, ukuba nomnqweno onzulu wokukhonza nokuphila ubomi obungcwele…). Ndithi kuwo “ENKOSI!”

Nalu usapho oluye lwasiqonda esi siprofeto "injongo" yolu kholo. 

… Isiprofetho ngokwebhayibhile asithethi ukuxela kwangaphambili ikamva kodwa kukuchaza ukuthanda kukaThixo okwangoku, kwaye ke sibonisa indlela elungileyo ekufuneka siyithathile ngekamva… nantsi ingongoma: [izityhilelo zabucala] zisinceda ukuba siqonde imiqondiso yamaxesha kwaye uphendule ngokufanelekileyo kukholo. -Khadinali Ratzinger (UPAPA BENEDICT XVI), "Umyalezo kaFatima", iNkcazo yeTheological, www.v Vatican.va

Kwangelo xesha, iziprofeto ezininzi ezivela kwiingcwele kunye neentsomi ngokufanayo do Thetha ngekamva-ukuba nje ukusibiza sibuyele kuThixo ngalo mzuzu, sikhuthazwe ngokungathi "yimiqondiso yamaxesha."

Umprofeti ngumntu othetha inyaniso kumandla oqhakamshelwano lwakhe noThixo-inyani yanamhlanje, ethi yona isinike ukukhanya ngekamva. -Khadinali uJoseph Ratzinger (UPAPA BENEDICT XVI), Isiprofeto SobuKristu, Inkcubeko Yasemva KweBhayibhile, Niels Christian Hvidt, intshayelelo, iphe. vii

Ke, kufundwa ILizwi ngoku Kuyakhunjuzwa amaxesha ngamaxesha njengoko sibonakala sisondele ekuzalisekeni kweziprofeto ezininzi ezithetha ngo “kohlwaya”, "imbandezelo enkulu", njl. Ngenxa yoko, ulutsha oluninzi luyazibuza ukuba ikamva lisizisa ntoni: Ngaba likho ithemba okanye luphanziso nje ? Ngaba kukho injongo okanye ukungabi nanjongo? Ngaba kufuneka benze izicwangciso okanye bazingele nje? Ngaba kufuneka baye ekholejini, batshate, babe nabantwana… okanye balinde nje iSaqhwithi? Uninzi luqala ukulwa uloyiko olukhulu kunye nokudana, ukuba ayiloxinzelelo.

Kwaye ke, ndifuna ukuthetha ngokusuka entliziyweni kubo bonke abafundi bam abancinci, kubantakwethu abancinci kunye noodade wethu nditsho nkqu noonyana neentombi zam, abanye sele bengene kumashumi amabini eminyaka.

 

ITHEMBA LOKWENYANISO 

Andinakuthethela, kodwa indlela yeNtwasahlobo, ikhephu elinyibilikayo, ubushushu bomfazi wam, ukuhleka komhlobo, ukuqaqamba kwamehlo abazukulwana bam ... mihla le bandikhumbuza ngesipho esihle ubomi kunjalo, ngaphandle kokubandezeleka. Oko, kwaye kukho uvuyo lokuqonda ukuba Ndiyathandwa:

Inceba kaYehova ayipheli, imfesane yakhe ayichithwa; Benziwa bahlaziye imiso ngemiso, bukhulu ukuthembeka kwakho. (IZililo 3: 22-23)

Ewe, ungaze uyilibale le nto: nokuba uyasilela, naxa usona, ayinakuphinda ithintele uthando lukaThixo ngawe njengokuba ilifu linokuthintela ilanga lingakhanyi. Ewe kuyinyani ukuba amafu esono sethu anokwenza imiphefumlo yethu isongelwe Usizi, kunye nokuzingca kunokufaka intliziyo ebumnyameni. Kuyinyani ukuba isono, ukuba sinobuzaza ngokwaneleyo, sinokusiphikisa ngokupheleleyo ziphumo yothando lukaThixo (okt ubabalo, amandla, uxolo, ukukhanya, uvuyo, njl. njl.) indlela ilifu elinemvula elinokubutha ngayo ubushushu nelanga. Okwangoku, kwanjengokuba elo lifu linye lingenako ukucima ilanga ngokwalo, ngokunjalo nesono sakho sinako ze ucime uthando lukaThixo kuwe. Ngamanye amaxesha le ngcinga iyodwa indenza ndifune ukulila luvuyo. Kungenxa yokuba ngoku ndiyayeka ukuzama ngamandla ukuze uThixo andithande (indlela esizama ngayo kakhulu ukuphumelela ukunconywa ngomnye) kwaye siphumle kwaye themba kuthando lwaKhe (kwaye ukuba uyalibala yimalini UThixo uyakuthanda, jonga nje uMnqamlezo). Inguquko okanye ukuguquka esonweni, ke, ayisiyonto yokwenza ukuba ndithandeke kuThixo kodwa kukuba ngulowo wandidala ukuba ndibenawo ukuze ndibanako Mthande, osele endithanda.

Ngubani na oya kusahlula eluthandweni lukaKristu? Yimbandezelo na, luxinaniso na, yintshutshiso na, yindlala na, bubuze na, yingozi na, likrele na? …Hayi, Kuko konke oko, sisuka soyise sitshatshele ngalowo wasithandayo. Kuba ndiqinisekile ukuba nakufa, nabomi, nazingelosi, nazilawuli, nanto ikhoyo, nazinto zizayo, namandla, nobude, nobunzulu, nayo nayiphi na enye into kwindalo yonke, iya kuba nako ukwahlula Uthando lukaThixo ngoKristu Yesu iNkosi yethu. (KwabaseRoma 8: 38-39)

Ngapha koko, uSt.Paul utyhila ukuba ukonwaba kwakhe kobu bomi bekungasekelwanga ekubeni nezinto, ukufezekisa izinto zehlabathi kunye namaphupha, ukuzuza ubutyebi nokuduma, okanye nokuhlala kwilizwe elingenamfazwe nentshutshiso. Endaweni yoko, wayevuya kukwazi oko wayethandwa nokusukela Lowo uluthando uqobo.

Ewe, okunene, ndisuka izinto zonke ndizibalele ekuthini ziyinkxwaleko, ngenxa yokongama kokumazi uKristu Yesu iNkosi yam; Ngenxa yakhe ndaye ndalahlekelwa zizinto zonke, ndizibalela njengenkunkuma, ukuze ndimzuze uKristu. (KwabaseFilipi 3: 8)

Kukho ubuxoki oyinyaniso ithemba ngekamva lakho: nokuba kwenzeka ntoni, uyathandwa. Kwaye xa usamkela olo thando lunguThixo, phila ngolo thando, kwaye ufune ngaphezu kwako konke okunye olo thando, emva koko yonke enye into esemhlabeni-okona kutya kulungileyo, ii-adventures, kunye nobudlelwane obungcwele-iyinto encinci xa ithelekiswa. Ukulahla ngokupheleleyo kuThixo yingcambu yolonwabo olungunaphakade.

Ukuqonda oku kuxhomekeka ngokupheleleyo kuMdali kungumthombo wobulumko nenkululeko, wovuyo nokuzithemba... -Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-301

Nako, nako, kukwangqina labangcwele abangabalekiyo kunye nabafeli-nkolo abahambe phambi kwakho. Ngoba? Kungenxa yokuba babengalungiselelwanga koko kunikelwa leli hlabathi kwaye babezimisele nokuphulukana nayo yonke into ukuze babenako ukufumana uThixo. Ke, abanye babangcwele bade balangazelela nokuphila kule mihla siphila kuyo ngoku kuba besazi ukuba kuya kubandakanya uthando lobuqhawe. Kwaye ngoku siza nayo-kwaye kutheni wazalelwa la maxesha:

Ukumamela uKristu nokumnqula kusikhokelela ekubeni sizikhethele ngenkalipho, sithathe izigqibo ngamanye amaxesha zobuqhawe. 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 kwiHlabathi liphela wowama-2005, eVictoria City, Agasti 27, 2004, Zenit.org

Kodwa ngaba likho ikamva ekufuneka ujonge kulo?

 

INYANISO YAMAXESHA ETHU

Kwiminyaka eliqela eyadlulayo, umfana othile owayekhathazekile wandibhalela. Wayefunda malunga ukuza nyulu kwehlabathi kwaye wayezibuza ukuba kutheni kufuneka azikhathaze ngokushicilela incwadi entsha awayesebenza kuyo. Ndiphendule ukuba kukho izizathu ezimbalwa zokuba kutheni kufanele. Inye, kukuba akukho namnye kuthi owaziyo umgca wexesha kaThixo. Njengoko uSt. Faustina noopopu besitsho, siphila 'kwixesha lenceba.' Kodwa inceba kaThixo injengebhande le-elastic elolulela kwinqanaba lokophuka… emva koko kubekho unongendi omncinci kwikhaya loonongendi phakathi ndawo Ubuso bakhe phambi kweSigramente Ebusisiweyo kunye neenzuzo zehlabathi elinye ishumi leminyaka lokufumana kwakhona. Uyabona, la mfana wandibhalela malunga neminyaka eli-14 eyadlulayo. Ndiyathemba ukuba wayipapasha loo ncwadi.

Ngapha koko, okuzayo emhlabeni ayisosiphelo sehlabathi kodwa kukuphela kweli xesha. Ngoku, andizange ndixoke kuloo mfana; Khange ndimnike nethemba elingelolakhe kwaye ndimxelele ukuba akukho nto inokukhathazeka okanye ukuba kungabikho xesha linzima elizayo. Endaweni yoko, ndamxelela ukuba, njengoYesu, uMzimba kaKristu ngoku kufuneka ulandele iNtloko yawo ngokuthanda kwakhe, ukufa kunye uvuko. Njengoko isitsho kwi Katekisimu:

Icawe iya kungena eluzukweni lobukumkani kuphela ngale pasika yokugqibela, xa iyakulandela iNkosi yakhe ekufeni nasekuvukeni kwakhe. -Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-677

Sekunjalo, ingcamango yoku yayimkhathaza. Inokude ikwenze ube lusizi kwaye woyike: "Kutheni izinto zingenakuhlala zihleli zinje?"

Ewe, ndifuna ukukubuza umbuzo: uyafuna ngempela ufuna eli hlabathi liqhubeke linje? Ngaba ngokwenene ufuna ikamva apho uza kuba phambili, kuya kufuneka ungene ematyaleni? Ikamva lokufumana kancinci, nokuba unesidanga sasekholejini? Ngaba lihlabathi apho iirobhothi ziya kuthi kungekudala ziphelise amashumi ezigidi zemisebenzi? Uluntu apho uloyiko, umsindo, nobundlobongela zilawula iindaba zethu zemihla ngemihla? Inkcubeko apho ukudiliza abanye kwimidiya yoluntu sele kuyinto eqhelekileyo? Ihlabathi apho iplanethi nemizimba yethu isekhona inetyhefu ngamachiza, amayeza okubulala izitshabalalisi kunye neetyhefu ezikhokelela kwizifo ezitsha nezothusayo? Indawo apho ungaziva ukhuselekile xa uhamba kwindawo ohlala kuyo? Ngaba lihlabathi apho sinabantu abaphambeneyo abalawula imijukujelwa yenyukliya? Inkcubeko apho izifo ezosulela ngokwabelana ngesondo kunye nokuzibulala kungubhubhani? Ngaba uluntu apho ukusetyenziswa kweziyobisi kuyanda kwaye ukurhweba ngabantu kusasazeka njengesibetho? Ngaba indawo apho iphonografi ihlazisa kwaye ibambisa izihlobo zakho kunye nosapho ukuba akunjalo? Isizukulwana esithi akukho mithetho yokuziphatha, ngelixa siphinda sibuyisela "inyani" kwaye sithulisa abo bangavumelaniyo? Ngaba lihlabathi apho iinkokheli zopolitiko zingakholelwa kwanto kwaye zithethe nantoni na ukuze zihlale emandleni?

Ndicinga ukuba uyayifumana inqaku. UPaul Paul wabhala wathi kuKristu, Zonke izinto zibambene. ^[1]AbaseKolose 1: 17 Ke, xa sisusa uThixo kuluntu, zonke izinto ziyahluka. Yiyo loo nto uluntu lufikelele kwinqanaba lokuzibhubhisa kwaye kutheni sifikile esiphelweni sexesha, oko kubizwa ngokuba "ngamaxesha okuphela." Kodwa kwakhona, "amaxesha okuphela" awafani "nokuphela kwehlabathi"…

 

UKUBUYISELA ZONKE IZINTO KUKRISTU

UThixo akazange adale abantu ngolu hlobo lokungcola. Akazukuphosa nje izandla zakhe athi, “Ah, ndizamile. Kulungile Sathana, uphumelele. ” Hayi, uBawo wasidala ukuba siphile ngokuvisisana okugqibeleleyo naye kunye nendalo. Kwaye ngoYesu, uYise uzimisele ukubuyisela umntu kwesi sidima. Oku kunokwenzeka kuphela, kunjalo, ukuba siphila ngokuhambelana nemithetho ayimisileyo elawula indalo ebonakalayo neyasemoyeni, ukuba "sihlala" kwintando kaThixo. Yiyo loo nto umntu anokuthi uYesu wafa emNqamlezweni, hayi ukusisindisa thina kuphela, kodwa bu yisela isidima sethu esifanelekileyo, senziwe njengoko sinomfanekiso kaThixo. UYesu nguKumkani, kwaye ufuna ukuba silawule kunye naye. Yiyo loo nto wasifundisa ukuba sithandaze.

Ubukumkani bakho mabufike kwaye ukuthanda kwakho makwenziwe emhlabeni njengasezulwini. (Mat 6:10)

UThixo ufuna ukubuyisela kwindalo imvisiswano yokuqala ayimisileyo "ekuqaleni"...

… Indalo apho uThixo nendoda, indoda nomfazi, ubuntu nendalo ziyavumelana, kwincoko, kubudlelane. Eli cebo, licatshukiswa sisono, lathatyathwa ngendlela emangalisa ngakumbi nguKrestu, oLifezayo ngokumangalisayo kodwa ngokukuko kwinyani yangoku, kulindelo lokuba luzalisekiswe…  —UAPOPE JOHN PAUL II, Ababukeli ngokubanzi, nge-14 kaFebruwari ngo-2001

Uyifumene? Upopu wathi oku kuya kuzalisekiswa "kwinyani yangoku," oko kukuthi, ngaphakathi ixesha, hayi ingunaphakade. Oko kuthetha ukuba into entle izakuzalwa “Emhlabeni njengasezulwini” emva kokuba iintlungu zokubeleka kunye neenyembezi zeli xesha langoku ziphelile. Kwaye okuzayo ngu lawula kokuthanda kukaThixo.

Uyabona, uAdam akazange nje do Ukuthanda koMdali wakhe, njengekhoboka, kodwa yena bangenwe Ukuthanda kukaThixo njengokuthanda kwakhe. Ke, uAdam wayenako ukukhanya, namandla, kunye nobomi bamandla kaThixo okudala; Yonke into awayeyicinga uAdam, wayithetha wayenza yagcwala amandla afanayo awadala indalo yonke. UAdam ke “walawula” phezu kwendalo ngokungathi wayengukumkani ngenxa yokuthanda kukaThixo kuye. Kodwa emva kokuwela esonweni, uAdam wayesakwazi ukwenza Ukuthanda kukaThixo, kodwa ukufana okungaphakathi kunye nobudlelane awayenabo noBathathu Emnye ngoku kwaphulwe, nemvisiswano phakathi komntu nendalo yaphulwa. Zonke zinokubuyiselwa kuphela ubabalo. Oko kubuyiselwa kwaqala ngoYesu ngokufa nokuvuka kwakhe. Kwaye ngoku, kula maxesha, uThixo uyafuna epheleleyo lo msebenzi ngokubuyisela umntu kweso sidima "sokuqala" somyezo wase-Eden.

Ngokucacileyo, isahlulo esikhulu sobuntu siphulukene kungekuphela nje ngemvisiswano kodwa kwanakuthethwano noMdali. Kananjalo, indawo yonke ngoku iyagcuma phantsi kobunzima besono somntu, ilindele ukubuyiselwa kwakhe.^[2]cf. Roma 8: 19

“Yonke indalo,” watsho uPaul uPaul, "uyancwina kwaye usebenza kude kube ngoku," silindele imizamo kaKrestu yokukhulula ubudlelane phakathi koThixo nendalo yakhe. Kodwa isenzo sikaKristu sokuhlangula asizibuyiseli ngokwaso zonke izinto, senza nje umsebenzi wentlawulelo ukuba ube khona, siqale ukukhululwa kwethu. Njengokuba bonke abantu besabelana ngokungathobeli kuka-Adam, ngokunjalo bonke abantu kufuneka babelane ekuthobeleni uKrestu kwintando kaYise. Intlawulelo iya kufezekiswa kuphela xa bonke abantu besabelana ngokuthobela kwakhe… —UMkhonzi kaThixo Fr. UWalter Ciszek, Uyandikhokela (ISan Francisco: Ignatius Press, 1995), iphepha 116-117

Abantu baya kwabelana nini ngokuthobela kwakhe? Xa amazwi ka "Bawo wethu" ezalisekiswa. Kwaye ucinga ntoni? wena sisizukulwana esiphilayo ukukuqonda oku. wena ngabo bazalelwe la maxesha xa uThixo efuna Buzinzise kwakhona uBukumkani baKhe entliziyweni yomntu: uBukumkani boKwenza ukuthanda kwakhe.

Kwaye ngubani owaziyo ukuba awuzanga ungene ebukumkanini ngexesha elinje? (Estere 4:14)

Njengoko watshoyo uYesu kuMkhonzi kaThixo ULuisa Piccarreta:

Kwindalo, injongo yam yayikukudala ubukumkani bentando yam emphefumlweni wesidalwa sam. Injongo yam ephambili yayikukwenza indoda nganye ibe ngumfanekiso kaBathathu Emnye ngenxa yokuzaliseka koMyolelo wam kuye. Kodwa ngokurhoxa komntu kwiNtando yam, ndilahlekelwe buBukumkani bam kuye, kwaye iminyaka engama-6000 kuye kwafuneka ndilwe. -UYesu esiya kuMkhonzi kaThixo uLuisa Piccarreta, osuka kwiidayari zikaLuisa, Umqu. XIV, Novemba 6, 1922; Abangcwele ngentando kaThixo ngu-Fr. USergio Pellegrini; iphe. 35

Njengokuba singena kwi "millennium yesixhenxe" ukusukela ekudalweni kuka-Adam no-Eva…

… Sikuva namhlanje ukugcuma njengokuba kungekho namnye owakha wakuva oko… UPopu [uJohn Paul II] uyakuxabisa ukulindelwa okukhulu kwelokuba iwaka leminyaka lamacandelo liyakulandelwa liwaka lemanyano. -Khadinali uJoseph Ratzinger (BENEDICT XVI), Ityiwa yomhlaba (San Francisco: Ignatius Press, 1997), iguqulelwe nguAdrian Walker

 

IMFAZWE YAMAXESHA ETHU

Ngoku, ebomini bakho, eli dabi liza phambili. Njengoko uSt. John Paul II watshoyo,

Sijongene nokugqibela ukungqubana phakathi kweCawa nabachasene necawa, phakathi kweVangeli kunye ne-anti-gospel, phakathi kukaKristu nomchasi-Kristu. -Ukhadinali Karol Wojtyla (JOHN PAUL II), kwi-Eucharistic Congress, ePhiladelphia, PA kumbhiyozo weminyaka emibini wokutyikitywa kwesibhengezo senkululeko; Amanye amazwi acatshulwe kwesi sicatshulwa awalikhuphi igama elithi “Kristu nomchasi-Kristu.” Umdikoni Keith Fournier, obezimase umsitho, uxela njengangentla; cf. Katolika kwi-Intanethi; Nge-13 ka-Agasti ka-1976

Mhlawumbi uqaphele ukuba isizukulwana sakho sithambekele kwi ngokugqithisileyo Kule mihla: ukutyibilika kwiskipa ukusuka kuloliwe, ukutsiba ukusuka kwisakhiwo ukuya kwisakhiwo, ukushibilika kwiincopho zeentombi, ukuthatha iiselfie kwiincopho zophahla, njlnjl. Njani ngokuzibandakanya kwidabi lesiphumo esiza kuchaphazela indalo iphela? Ngaba uyafuna ukuba kwicala lemihla ngemihla okanye kwi ngaphambili yemimangaliso? Kungenxa yokuba INkosi sele iqalile ukuthulula uMoya wayo kwabo bathi “Ewe, Nkosi. Ndilapha." Sele eqale uhlaziyo lwehlabathi ezintliziyweni zentsalela. Lixesha elingakanani ukuphila! Kuba…

… Ngasekupheleni kwehlabathi, kwaye kungekudala, uThixo uSomandla kunye noMama wakhe ongcwele kufuneka baphakamise iingcwele ezinkulu eziza kugqwesa ngobungcwele uninzi lwabanye abangcwele njengemisedare yaseLebhanon ngaphezulu kwemithana emincinci… Le miphefumlo mikhulu izaliswe lubabalo kwaye inzondelelo iya kukhethwa ukuba ichasane neentshaba zikaThixo ezigcwele ngapha nangapha. Baza kuzinikezela ngokukodwa kwiNtombikazi eNoyolo. Ekhanyiselwa kukukhanya kwakhe, omelezwe kukutya kwakhe, ekhokelwa ngumoya wakhe, exhaswa yingalo yakhe, ekhuselekile phantsi kokhuseleko lwakhe, baya kulwa ngesandla esinye kwaye bakhe ngelinye. -Ukuzinikela kwenene kwiNtombikazi kaMariya, Louis de Montfort, ubugcisa. 47-48

Ewe, uyabizwa ukuba ujoyine Ibali leNenekazi lethu elincinci, ukujoyina I-Counter-Revolution ukubuyisela inyani, ubuhle kunye nokulunga. Sukundenza impazamo: kuninzi ekufuneka kuhlanjululwe kweli xesha langoku ukuze kuzalwe ixesha elitsha. Iya kufuna, ngokuyinxenye, a Utyando lweCosmic. Oko, kwaye u Yesu wathi, awungekhe uyigalele iwayini entsha kwiintsuba zewayini endala kuba ulusu oludala luya kugqabhuka.^[3]cf. UMarko 2:22 Ewe, uyintsuba kwaye iwayini entsha yiPentekoste yesibini uThixo azakuthululela yona emhlabeni emva kobu busika bentsizi:

"Njengokuba iwaka lesithathu leNtlawulelo lisondela, uThixo ulungiselela intwasahlobo enkulu yobuKristu, kwaye sele siyibona imiqondiso yokuqala." Kwangathi uMariya, iNkwenkwezi yasekuseni, asincede sitsho ngentshiseko ukuba "ewe" kwicebo likaBawo losindiso ukuze zonke izizwe neelwimi zibubone ubuqaqawuli bakhe. -UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, Umyalezo we-World Mission ngeCawa, n. 9, Oktobha 24, 1999; www.v Vatican.va

 

AKUKHO ITHEMBA LOBUXOKI

Ewe, izakhono zakho, iitalente zakho, iincwadi zakho, ubugcisa bakho, umculo wakho, ubuchule bakho bokuyila, abantwana bakho kwaye ngaphezu kwako konke ubungcwele yile nto uThixo aza kuyisebenzisa ukwakha inkcubeko yothando apho uKrestu aya kulawula khona, ekugqibeleni, kude kuse eziphelweni zomhlaba. UYesu Uyeza!). Ke, ungalahli ithemba! UPopu John Paul II akazange aqale iiNtsuku zoLutsha zeHlabathi ukubhengeza ukuphela kwehlabathi kodwa ukuqala komnye. Ngapha koko, ukubize kunye nam ukuba sibe yiyo Abavakalisi. 

Lutsha olutsha, kuxhomekeke kuwe ukuba ngu abalindi kwangesasa ndibhengeza ngokuza kwelanga ngubani uKrestu ovusiweyo! —UAPOPE JOHN PAUL II, Umyalezo kaBawo Oyingcwele kuLutsha lweHlabathiI-XVII yoSuku loLutsha lweHlabathi, n. 3; (cf. ngaba 21: 11-12)

Uninzi lwenu belubetha nje iminyaka yokufikisa xa kwanyulwa uBenedict XVI. Kwaye wathetha kwa into enye, wade wacebisa ukuba wenza "iGumbi eliPhezulu elitsha" lokuthandazela ulutsha ngale Pentekoste intsha. Umyalezo wakhe, kude nokuphelelwa lithemba, wayekulindele ukuza koBukumkani bukaThixo ngendlela entsha. 

Amandla oMoya oyiNgcwele akasikhanyiseli nje kuphela kwaye asithuthuzele. Isalatha kwikamva, ekufikeni koBukumkani bukaThixo… La mandla anokwenza ihlabathi elitsha: angalihlaziya “ubuso bomhlaba” (cf. Ps 104: 30)! Sinikwe amandla nguMoya, kwaye sitsalela kumbono otyebileyo wokholo, isizukulwana esitsha samaKristu siyabizwa ukuba sincedise ekwakheni umhlaba apho isipho sikaThixo sobomi samkelwa, sihlonitshwe kwaye sigcinwe - singalahlwa, sisoyikiswa njengesoyikiso kwaye sitshatyalaliswe. Ixesha elitsha apho uthando lunganyolukiyo okanye luzifunela ngokwalo, kodwa lusulungekile, luthembekile kwaye lukhululekile ngokwenyani, luvuleleke kwabanye, bahloniphe isidima sabo, bafuna ukulunga kwabo, beveza uvuyo kunye nobuhle. Ixesha elitsha apho ithemba lisikhulula khona kukungakhathali, ukungakhathali kunye nokuzifunela ngokwakho okubulala imiphefumlo yethu nokonakalisa ubudlelwane bethu. Bahlobo abathandekayo, iNkosi iyakucela ukuba ube ngabaprofeti beli xesha litsha, abathunywa bothando lwakhe, utsalele abantu kuYise kwaye wakhe ikamva lethemba kubo bonke abantu. -UPOPE BENEDICT XVI, Homily, uSuku loLutsha lweHlabathi, eSydney, e-Australia, ngoJulayi 20, 2008; IVatican.va

Izandi zihle kakhulu, akunjalo? Ayilo themba lobuxoki eli, akukho "ndaba bobuxoki." IZibhalo zithetha ngolu hlaziyo lizayo kunye "nexesha loxolo," njengoko uMama wethu waseFatima abize njalo. Funda iNdumiso 72: 7-9; 102: 22-23; UIsaya 11: 4-11; 21: 11-12; 26: 9; UYeremiya 31: 1-6; Hezekile 36: 33-36; UHoseya 14: 5-8; Yoweli 4:18; Daniyeli 7:22; UAmosi 9: 14-15; UMika 5: 1-4; UZefaniya 3: 11-13; UZekariya 13: 8-9; Malaki 3: 19-21; Mat 24:14; IZenzo 3: 19-22; Heb 4: 9-10; kunye neSity 20: 6. Abaseki beCawa yokuqala bazicacisa ezi Zibhalo (jonga Bawo Oyingcwele ... Uyeza!), njengoko benditshilo, oopopu bebekade beyibhengeza (jonga Oopopu… kunye neXesha lokuFika). Thatha ixesha lokufunda ezi zibonelelo ngelinye ixesha kuba zithetha ngekamva eligcwele ithemba: ukuphela kwemfazwe; ukuphela kwezifo ezininzi kunye nokufa ngaphambi kwexesha; ukuphela kokutshatyalaliswa kwendalo; kunye nokuphela kolwahlulo oluye lwaqhekeka kuhlanga loluntu iminyaka engamawaka. Hayi, ayizukuba liZulu, ubuncinci ngaphandle. Yale ukuza koBukumkani “Emhlabeni njengasezulwini” yi ingaphakathi Ngokwenene uThixo uya kuyiphumeza imiphefumlo yaBantu baKhe ukuze alungiselele iBandla njengoMtshakazi, ukuba "angabi nasiphako nasiphako" ekubuyeni kukaYesu okokugqibela ekupheleni kwexesha.^[4]cf. Efe 5:27 kunye Ukuza okuPhakathi Yiyo loo nto nimiselwe kule mihla, nyana bathandekayo neentombi, kukwamkelaubungcwele obutsha nobungcwele" zange ngaphambili inikwe iBandla. Sisithsaba sobungcwele nesona sipho sikhulu uThixo asigcinele amaxesha okugqibela… wena nabantwana bakho:

Ukuphila kwintando yobungcwele kuyawushiya umphefumlo emhlabeni umanyano lwangaphakathi kunye nentando kaThixo njengoko konwatyelwa ngabangcwele ezulwini. —ISityhi. UJoseph Iannuzzi, isazi ngezenkolo, Incwadi kaThixo yomthandazo, p. 699

Kwaye oko akunakunceda kodwa kube nefuthe kuyo yonke indalo.

 

UKUQALA

Okwangoku, unokoyika iimvavanyo esele ziseza ehlabathini (umzekelo, imfazwe, izifo, indlala, njl. Njl.) Kwaye uloyiko lukhuphisana nethemba. Kodwa enyanisweni, ingunobangela woloyiko kuphela abo bahlala ngaphandle kobabalo lukaThixo. Kodwa ukuba uzama ngokunyanisekileyo ukulandela uYesu, ubeka ukholo lwakho nothando kuye, uthembisa ukukhusela.

Ngenxa yokuba uwugcinile umyalezo wam wonyamezelo, ndiyakukugcina ukhuselekile ngexesha lesilingo eliza kuza kwihlabathi liphela ukuvavanya abemi bomhlaba. Ndiyeza ngokukhawuleza. Bambelela kwinto onayo, ukuze kungabikho namnye usithabathayo isithsaba sakho. (ISityhi. 3: 10-11)

Uya kukugcina njani ukhuselekile? Enye indlela kukuMama wethu. Kulabo bazinikela kuMariya kwaye bamthatha njengonina, uba yilonto yokhuseleko ethembisa uYesu:

Umama nguMkhombe kaNowa.—UYesu ukuya kuElizabeth Kindelmann, Idangatye Lothando, p. 109. nangemvume Ubhishophu omkhulu uCharles Chaput

Oko, kwaye, sibuyela kumxholo wethu wokuvula ngothando, iSt.

Uthando olugqibeleleyo lukhupha lonke uloyiko. (1 Yohane 4:18)

Thanda, ungoyiki nto; Uthando, njengelanga eligxotha inkungu yentsasa, luphelisa uloyiko. Oku akuthethi ukuba mna nawe asizukubandezeleka. Ngaba kunjalo nangoku? Akunjalongo noko. Ukubandezeleka akuyi kuphela kwaphela de kube sekuphelisweni kwazo zonke izinto ekupheleni kwexesha. Kwaye ke…

Musa ukoyika into enokwenzeka ngomso.
Lo Bawo unothando ukukhathaleleyo namhlanje uyakwenza njalo
ndikukhathalele ngomso nangemihla.
Nokuba uya kukukhusela ekubandezelekeni
okanye uya kukunika amandla angapheliyo ukuba uyithwale.
Yibani seluxolweni emva koko ubeke bucala zonke iingcinga kunye neembono.
—St. UFrancis de Sales, ubishophu wenkulungwane ye-17

Okukhona ubumnyama bungaphezulu, kokukhona kufaneleke ukuthembela kuthi.
—St. UFaustina, Inceba kaThixo kumphefumlo wam, Iidayari, n. 357

Uyathandwa,
uphawu
