Ndifuna ukubulela ngokusuk 'entliziyweni kubo bonke abafundi bam kunye nababukeli ngomonde wakho (njengesiqhelo) ngeli xesha lonyaka xa ifama ixakekile kwaye ndizama nokungena ekuphumleni naseholideyini nosapho lwam. Ndiyabulela nakubantu abathe bathandaza kwaye banikela ngalenkonzo. Andisoze ndibenalo ixesha lokubulela wonke umntu buqu, kodwa yazini ukuba ndiyanithandazela nonke.
INTONI Ngaba injongo yazo zonke izinto endizibhalileyo, iiwebhu, ii-podcast, incwadi, iialbham, njl. Yintoni injongo yam yokubhala malunga "nemiqondiso yamaxesha" kunye "namaxesha okuphela"? Ngokuqinisekileyo, ibikukulungiselela abafundi le mihla ikufuphi ngoku. Kodwa kanye embindini wayo yonke le nto, injongo ekugqibeleni kukusondeza kuYesu.
UVUKILE
Ngoku, kuyinyani ukuba kukho amawaka abantu avuswe kolu hlaselo. Uyaphila ngoku kula maxesha sikuwo kwaye ukuqonda ukubaluleka kokufumana impilo yakho yokomoya ilungile. Esi sisipho, isipho esikhulu esivela kuThixo. Luphawu lothando lwaKhe kuwe… kodwa nangakumbi. Ngumqondiso wokuba iNkosi inqwenela ukuba kumanyano olupheleleyo kunye nani — njengokuba uMyeni elindele umanyano noMtshakazi wakhe. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, iNcwadi yeSityhilelo ichanekile malunga neembandezelo ezikhokelela kwi “Itheko lomtshato weMvana.” [1]Rev 19: 9
Kodwa lo "mtshato" ungaqala ngoku emphefumlweni wakho, umanyano neNkosi ngokwenyani ntoni tshintsha "yonke into." Inkqubo ye- 
Amandla kaYesu anokusiguqula, ewe, kodwa kuphela kwinqanaba lokuba simvumele. Ulwazi luye kuphela kude kube ngoku. Njengokuba omnye umhlobo wayedla ngokutsho, yenye into ukufunda malunga nendlela yokudada; yenye yokuntywila kwaye uqalise ukuyenza. Ngokunjalo, neNkosi yethu. Singazazi iinyani ngobomi baKhe, sikwazi ukucengceleza iMithetho Elishumi okanye uluhlu lweeSakramente ezisixhenxe, njl siyamazi uYesu… okanye sazi nje malunga Yena?
Ndibhalela ngokukodwa abo bacinga ukuba lo myalezo awunakuba ngawenu. Ukuba wona kakhulu ebomini bakho; ukuba uThixo wayengenakukhathazeka nawe; ukuba awungomnye “wabakhethekileyo” kwaye ngekhe ube njalo. Ndingakuxelela into? Bububhanxa obupheleleyo. Kodwa musa ukulithatha ilizwi lam.
Vumela aboni abakhulu babeke ithemba labo kwinceba yam. Banelungelo phambi kwabanye lokuthemba enzonzobileni yenceba yam. —UYesu ukuya eSt Faustina, Inceba kaThixo kuMphefumlo wamKwidayari, n. 1146
Hayi, uYesu uhlala esondela kumaZakeyu, Magdalene, nasePeter; Uhlala efuna abantu abonzakeleyo nabalahlekileyo, ababuthathaka nabanganelanga. Ungalihoyi ke elo lizwi lincinci lithi “Awulufanelanga uthando lwaKhe. ” Obo bubuxoki obunamandla obenzelwe ngokukodwa ukukugcina kwimiphetho yeNtliziyo kaKristu… kude ngokwaneleyo ukuba ungaziva ukufudumala kwaKhe, ngokuqinisekileyo… kodwa kukude kakhulu ukuba ungachukunyiswa ngamadangatye aKhe kwaye ngaloo ndlela uhlangane namandla anyanisekileyo aguqulayo othando lwaKhe.
Amalangatye enceba ayanditshisa — ekhwaza ukuba achithwe; Ndifuna ukuqhubeka ndibathululela emiphefumlweni; imiphefumlo ayifuni nje ukukholelwa ekulungeni kwam. —UYesu ukuya eSt Faustina, Inceba kaThixo kuMphefumlo wamIidayari, n. 177
Sukuba ngomnye wale miphefumlo. Akunyanzelekanga ukuba kubenjalo. Namhlanje, uYesu ukubiza ukuba usondele kuye. Uyindoda enyanisekileyo ehloniphayo inkululeko yakho yokuzikhethela; ngenxa yoko, uThixo ulindele u "ewe" wakho ngenxa yakho sele enabo.
Sondelani kuye uThixo, wosondela kuni. (Yakobi 4: 8)
INDLELA YOKUSONDELA KUTHIXO
Sisondela njani kuThixo kwaye oko kuthetha ntoni?
Into yokuqala ukuqonda ukuba luhlobo luni lobudlelwane uYesu alunqwenelayo nawe. Kufakwe kula magama:
Andisatsho ukuthi ningabakhonzi; ngokuba umkhonzi akakwazi okwenziwa yinkosi yakhe; Ndithe ke nizizihlobo… (Yohane 15:15)
Ndixelele, phakathi kweenkolo zehlabathi, uthini uThixo oku kwizidalwa zaKhe? Yintoni le uThixo ayenzileyo ade abe ngomnye wethu ade aphalaze negazi lakhe ngenxa yokusithanda? Ewe ewe, uThixo unqwenela ukuba ngumhlobo wakho eyona kubahlobo. Ukuba ufuna ubuhlobo, umntu othembekileyo nothembekileyo, jonga uMdali wakho.
Ngamanye amazwi, uYesu unqwenela a ulwalamano lomntu nawe — hayi nje ukutyelela yonke iCawa kangangeyure. Ngapha koko, kunjalo 
Yicawa yamaKatolika kwiingcwele zayo eyasibonisa iinkulungwane ezidlulileyo (kwakudala phambi kukaBilly Graham) ukuba ubudlelwane bomntu noThixo bubuntu yamaKatolika. Nantsi ke, kanye kwiCatechism:
"Imfihlelo yokholo inkulu!" Icawa iyayichaza le mfihlakalo kwiNkolelo yabaPostile kwaye iyibhiyozela kwimfundiso yomthendeleko, ukuze ubomi babathembekileyo bufaniswe noKristu kuMoya oyiNgcwele kuzukiswe uThixo uYise. Le mfihlakalo ke ifuna ukuba abathembekileyo bakholelwe kuyo, bayibhiyozele, kwaye baphile kuyo kubudlelwane obubalulekileyo nobobuqu noThixo ophilileyo noyinyaniso. -Catechism yeCawa yamaKatolika (CCC), 2558
Kodwa uyazi ukuba kunjani kwinkoliso yeecawe zethu zamaKhatholika: abantu abafuni kuhlala ngaphandle, abafuni ukubonwa "njengalowo unenzondelelo yempambano." Kwaye ke, inzondelelo kunye nenzondelelo ziyaphazanyiswa, nokuba zihlekisiwe, ukuba kuphela kwinqanaba lokuqonda. Inkqubo ye- bume bento igcinwe ngokungqongqo kwaye umceli mngeni wokuba ngabangcwele abaphilayo uhlala ufihliwe emva kwemifanekiso eqingqiweyo enothuli, imbonakalo yento esingasoze sibe yiyo. Yiyo loo nto uPopu John Paul II wathi:
Ngamanye amaxesha amaKatolika aphulukene okanye akaze abe nethuba lokuzibonela u-Kristu ngokobuqu: hayi u-Kristu njenge 'paradigm' okanye 'ixabiso', kodwa njengeNkosi ephilayo, 'indlela, nenyaniso, nobomi'. —IPOPA ST. UYOHANE PAUL II, L'Osservatore Romano (Uhlelo lwesiNgesi lweVatican Newspaper), Matshi 24, 1993, iphe. 3
Kwaye obu budlelwane, utshilo, buqala nge Kukhetha:
Uguquko lithetha ukwamkela, ngesigqibo sobuqu, inkululeko esindisayo kaKristu nokuba ngumfundi wakhe. -Ileta Encyclical: Umsebenzi woMhlanguli (1990) 46
Mhlawumbi ukholo lwakho lobuKatolika lube sisigqibo somzali wakho. Okanye mhlawumbi sisigqibo somfazi wakho sokuba uye eMthendelekweni, okanye mhlawumbi uye eCaweni ngenxa yomkhwa nje, ukonwaba, okanye uziva unyanzelekile (unetyala). Kodwa obu ayibobudlelwane; okona kulungileyo, yeyona nostalgia.
Ukuba ngumKristu akusosiphumo sokhetho lokuziphatha okanye umbono ophakamileyo, kodwa kukuhlangana nomnyhadala, umntu, onika ubomi umbono omtsha kunye nesikhokelo esigqibeleleyo. —UPOPE BENEDICT XVI; Ileta yoncwadi: Deus Caritas Est, "Uthixo Luthando"; 1
UKUTHETHA NGOKUQHELEKILEYO
Ke kujongeka njani oku kudibana? Iqala ngesimemo esifana nesi endikunika sona ngoku. Iqala ngawe usazi ukuba uYesu ulindele ukuba usondele. Okwangoku, kuthe cwaka egumbini lakho, uwedwa kwindlela, ekukhanyeni kokutshona kwelanga, uThixo unxanelwe ukudibana nawe.
Umthandazo kukuhlangana kukaThixo nokunxanwa kwethu. UThixo unxanelwe ukuba simnxanelwe. -Catechism yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-2560
Inokuqala ngokuya kwiMisa ngokuchanekileyo ukudibana noYesu. Akusekho ukubeka ngengqondo ngoku kodwa ngoku umamele ilizwi laKhe kufundo lweMisa; ukumamela uqeqesho lwaKhe ekhaya; ukumthanda ngokuthandaza nangengoma (ewe, ngokwenyani ukucula); kwaye okokugqibela, ukumfuna kwi-Ekaristi ngokungathi lelona candelo libalulekileyo leveki yakho. Kwaye kunjalo, kuba uMthendeleko unguYe ngokwenene.
Okwangoku, kuya kufuneka uqale ulibale ukuba ijongeka kanjani abanye. Eyona ndlela ikhawulezayo yokwenza umkhenkce kubudlelwane bakho 
noYesu kukuxhalaba ngakumbi malunga nokuba abanye bacinga ntoni kunale ayenzayo. Zibuze lo mbuzo xa uvale amehlo, uguqe ngamadolo, kwaye uthandaze ngokusuka entliziyweni: ingaba ukhathazekile ngalo mzuzu malunga nokuba amanye amakholwa acinga ntoni okanye ukuthanda uYesu nje?
Ngaba ngoku ndithomalalisa abantu, ndithomalalisa uThixo? Ndifuna ukukholisa abantu na? Ukuba ndingaba ndisakholisa abantu, ndingaba andingumkhonzi kaKristu. (Galati 1: 10)
Kwaye oko kundizisa kwi-crux yokwenene yokusondela kuThixo, esele ichaziwe apha ngasentla: mthandazo. Ayisiyonto iza lula kumKatolika ophakathi. Ngale nto andithethi ukukwazi ukucaphula imithandazo kodwa umthandazo osuka entliziyweni apho umntu awuthululela ngokwenene umphefumlo wakhe kuThixo; apho kukho ukuba semngciphekweni kunye nokuthembela kuThixo njengoBawo, uYesu njengoMzalwana, noMoya oyiNgcwele njengoMncedi. Inyaniso,
Umntu, ngokwakhe odalwe “ngokomfanekiselo kaThixo” [ubizelwe] kulwalamano lobuqu noThixo… mthandazo ubudlelwane obuphilayo babantwana bakaThixo kunye noTata wabo… -IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-299, 2565
Ukuba u Yesu wathi ngoku usibiza ngokuba ngabahlobo, umthandazo wakho kufuneka ubonakalise lonto- ukutshintshiselana ngobuhlobo nothando lwenene, nokuba alunamazwi.
“Umthandazo wokucingisisa [utsho uSt. Teresa waseAvila] ngokoluvo lwam ayikho enye into ngaphandle kokwabelana ngokusondeleyo phakathi kwabahlobo; oko kuthetha ukuba sithathe ixesha rhoqo ukuba sodwa kunye nabantu esaziyo ukuba bayasithanda. ” Umthandazo wokucamngca ufuna lowo "uthandwa ngumphefumlo wam." NguYesu, kwaye kuye, uYise. Siyamfuna, kuba ukumnqwenela kusisiqalo sothando, kwaye simfuna kulolo kholo lunyulu olusibangela ukuba sizalwe ngaye kwaye sihlale kuye. -Katekisiki yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-2709
Ngaphandle komthandazo, akukho buhlobo noThixo, akukho bumoya ubomi, nanjengoko kungekho bomi emtshatweni apho abatshati bethula cwaka omnye komnye.
Umthandazo bubomi bentliziyo entsha.—CCC, n. 2697
Kuninzi okunokuthethwa ngomthandazo kodwa kwanele ukuthi: njengokuba usitya ixesha lesidlo sangokuhlwa, beka ixesha lokuthandaza. Ngapha koko, unokuphosa isidlo kodwa ungaphoswa ngumthandazo, ngawo, uzobe incindi yoMoya oyiNgcwele kuMdiliya, onguKristu, ubomi bakho. Ukuba awukho kuMdiliya, uyi-dyin '(njengoko sisitsho apha).
Okokugqibela, sondela kuYesu ngenyaniso. He is inyaniso — inyaniso esikhululayo. Ke ngoko, yiza kuye unyanisekile. Bare umphefumlo wakho opheleleyo kuye: lonke ihlazo, iintlungu, kunye neqhayiya (akukho nto angayaziyo
Nawe). Kodwa xa ubambelela esonweni okanye ukogquma amanxeba akho, uthintela ubudlelwane bokwenyani obuhlala buhleli ukuba bangenzeki kuba ulwalamano luphulukene nengqibelelo yalo. Ke, buyela emva kuVuma ukuba awukwenzi kangangexeshana. Yenze ibe yinxalenye yolawulo lokomoya rhoqo-ubuncinci kanye ngenyanga.
… Ukuthobeka sisiseko somthandazo [Oko kukuthi, ulwalamano lwakho noYesu]… Ukucela ukuxolelwa yeyona nto ifunekayo kuzo zombini uMthendeleko we-Eucharistic kunye nokuzithandazela.-IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolika, n. I-2559, 2631
Kwaye khumbula ukuba inceba yakhe ayinamida, nokuba ucinga ntoni ngawe.
Ukuba umphefumlo ubufana nesidumbu esibolayo ukuze ngokwembono yomntu, kungabikho [themba] lokubuyiselwa kwaye yonke into sele ilahlekile, akunjalo kuThixo. Ummangaliso weNceba kaThixo ubuyisela loo mphefumlo ngokupheleleyo. Owu, hayi indlela abalusizi ngayo abo bangayisebenzisiyo imimangaliso yenceba kaThixo! -Inceba kaThixo kumphefumlo wam, Iidayari, n. 1448
“… Abo baya kuVuma rhoqo, kwaye besenza njalo benomnqweno wokwenza inkqubela phambili” bayakuqaphela amanyathelo abawenzayo kubomi babo basemoyeni. "Ingayinto engekhoyo ukufuna ubungcwele, ngokobizo umntu alufumene kuThixo, ngaphandle kokutya rhoqo lo mthendeleko wenguquko noxolelwaniso." —UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, kwinkomfa yabapostile ejele, ngoMatshi 27, 2004; mkhusini.org
UKUQHUBELA PHAMBILI NGALO MAXESHA
Zininzi izinto endizibhalileyo kule minyaka idlulileyo. Uninzi lwazo, bendingazi ukuba zinokwenzeka ebomini bam okanye hayi… kodwa ngoku ndiyazibona zityhila ngeli lixa langoku. Kulapha. Amaxesha endibhalileyo ngawo alapha. Umbuzo ngowokuba siza kuhamba njani ngazo.
Impendulo yile sondela kuYesu. Obo budlelwane buqu kunye naYe, uyakufumana ubulumko kunye namandla eyimfuneko kuwe nakusapho lwakho ukuhamba ebumnyameni obungqongqo okusingqongileyo.
Umthandazo uhambela kubabalo esilufunayo… -I-CCC, n.2010
La ngamaxesha angaqhelekanga, ngaphaya kwayo nayiphi na into eyakha yabonwa ngabantu. Ekuphela kwendlela eya phambili isentliziyweni ka Yesu- hayi kwimiphetho, hayi kumgama “otofotofo”, kodwa ngaphakathi. Isifaniso iya kuba ngumkhombe kaNowa. Wayemelwe kukuba njalo kwiTyeya, ungadadweli macala onke; ukungadlali kwisikhephe sobomi kumgama "okhuselekileyo". Wayemelwe kukuba njalo kunye neNkosi, kwaye oko kwakuthetha ukuba kwiTyeya.
Oxhumene ngokusondeleyo noYesu nguMama wakhe, uMariya. Intliziyo yabo inye. Kodwa uYesu nguThixo kwaye akanguye. Ke, xa ndithetha ngokuba sentliziyweni kaMariya ngokungathi yiTyeya kunye "nendawo yokusabela" yamaxesha ethu, kuyafana nokuba seNtliziyweni kaKristu kuba ungowakhe ngokupheleleyo. Ke ngoko into eyeyakhe iba yeyakhe, kwaye ukuba singabakhe, singabakhe. Ndiyakubongoza ke, ngentliziyo yam yonke, ukuba ube nolwalamano lobuqu noMama uMary naye. Akukho mntu ngaphambi okanye emva kwakhe onokukusondeza kuYesu ngaphezu kwakhe… kuba akekho omnye umntu owanikwa indima yokuba ngumama wokomoya woluntu.
Umama kaMariya, othi ube lilifa lendoda, ngu isiphoIsipho uKristu asenza ngokobuqu kuye wonke umntu. UMhlawuleli uphathise uMariya kuYohane kuba ubeka uYohane kuMariya. Ezinyaweni zoMnqamlezo kuqala apho ukunikezelwa okukhethekileyo kobuntu kuMama kaKrestu, okwathi kwimbali yeCawe kwenziwa kwaye kwabonakaliswa ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo… —UAPOPE JOHN PAUL II, I-Redemptoris Mater, n. I-45
Musa ukoyika ukwenza ukholo lwakho lobuKatolika ngokwenene. Libala ukuba abanye abantu bacinga ntoni kunye nento abayenzayo, okanye abayenziyo. Musa ukuba njengeemfama ezilandela iimfama, njengegusha elandela umhlambi ongenamalusi. Yiba nguwe. Yiba yinyani. Yiba ngoKristu.
Ulinde wena.
