UMark noLea Mallett
TO inyani, andinazicwangciso. Hayi, nyhani. Izicwangciso zam kwiminyaka emininzi eyadlulayo yayikukurekhoda umculo wam, ndijikeleze ndicula, kwaye ndiqhubeke nokwenza ii-albhamu kude kube lilizwi lam elikrokrayo. Kodwa ke ndilapha, ndihleli esihlalweni, ndibhalela abantu kwihlabathi liphela kuba umphathi wam wokomoya undixelele ukuba "ndiye apho bakhoyo abantu." Kwaye ulapha. Ayisiyonto iyothusayo le kum, nangona kunjalo. Ukuqala kwam ubufundisi kumculo kwikota yeshumi eyadlulayo, iNkosi yandinika ilizwi:Umculo ngumnyango wokuhambisa ivangeli. ” Umculo awuzange wenzelwe ukuba ube "yinto", kodwa umnyango.
Kwaye ke, njengokuba siqala u-2018, andinazo naziphi na izicwangciso, kuba iNkosi inokuba nezintsha ngomso. Into endinokuyenza kukuvuka, ndithandaze, ndithi, “Thetha Nkosi. Umkhonzi wakho uphulaphule. Oko-kwaye ndiphulaphule uMzimba kaKristu nento nina zithetha ngolu lungiselelo. Naleyo iyinxalenye yokuqonda kwam oko ndikholelwa ukuba iNkosi ifuna ndikwenze. Ndifumana iileta yonke imihla ngolu hlobo:
Imiyalezo yakho indinike ithemba kunye nesikhokelo kula maxesha anzima kakhulu. —MB
Yanga iNkosi ingakusikelela, usapho lwakho kunye nomzalwana wakho wobulungiseleli. Akuzange kubaluleke ngakumbi kwimiphefumlo kunye neCawe. Ndiyathandaza ukuba bonke balive ilizwi lakho entlango. —HAMBA
Nceda wazi ukuba ndiyakhokelelwa ukuba ndikuthandazele rhoqo… kunye nendlela owaphefumlela ngayo iigalari zamaKatolika ezine ukuba ziqale ubufundisi bethu obuhle kwiminyaka emithandathu eyadlulayo. —KR
Enkosi kakhulu “ngokuyilungisa indlela” yala maxesha kule minyaka idlulileyo. Amazwi akho azaliswe nguMoya akuphelisile ukuchasa iNyaniso njengoko ityhilwa ngeziganeko zosuku ngalunye, imiqondiso yamaxesha kwaye ngakumbi izityhilelo zeemfihlakalo kunye neLizwi eliNgcwele likaThixo. Andifuni kwamkela kwinqanaba elithile lakudala ubunyani bemeko yehlabathi, ukanti ukuthembeka kwakho rhoqo emthandazweni kubomi bakho bobuqu kunye nokuthobela kwakho ubizo ebomini bakho kwenze ukuba kube nokwenzeka ukuba isigqubuthelo sisuswe emehlweni am. kwaye amehlo angenakubalwa awafundayo uMoya wakho azalisa amazwi. —GC
Ke, okulungileyo kokukaThixo, okuseleyo kokwam. Ndivume ndisajongene Isihendo sokuba siqheleke amaxesha ngamaxesha, ukuba uyayazi into endiyithethayo. Kodwa xa ndifunda iileta ezifana nezi, kulula ukuthi kwiNkosi Yethu okanye kwiNenekazi Lethu, “Kulungile, ufuna ukuthini namhlanje?” Nceda uqonde… yimpendulo yakho kuYesu endinike amafutha ukuba ndiqhubeke nemibhalo emalunga ne-1300, iialbham ezisi-7, kunye nencwadi enye kamva. Andikwazi kuzibamba ndilile njengoko ndifunda ezi ncwadi zingasentla ngenxa yokuba, nangona ndingumoni njengaye wonke umntu, uThixo makandivumele ukuba ndithathe inxaxheba ngendlela ethile encinane kumsebenzi wakhe wokusindisa nokungcwalisa imiphefumlo.
Kodwa njengoko lo nyaka mtsha uqalisayo, kuye kwafuneka ukuba ubulungiseleli bethu bungene nzulu kurhwebo lwethu ukuze buqhubeke busebenza. Ngoko sajonga okwenzekayo saza safumana izinto ezothusayo. Amakhulukhulu abaxhasi benyanga bayekile ukupha ukusukela ngoDisemba ka-2016, uninzi lwabo ngenxa yamakhadi etyala aphelelwe lixesha okanye ukungalandeli ukuzinikela kwabo. Nangona sizama ukubakhumbuza, akukho nto ingako itshintshileyo. Iintengiso zethu zeencwadi kunye neeCD zehle ngaphezulu kwe-$20,000 kwiminyaka edlulileyo. Kwaye iminikelo yexesha elinye iye yawela kumtya. Kwaye ngeli xesha ukufunda kuye zanda.
Mna noLea asinakonga, asinasicwangciso somhlalaphantsi. Siye sasebenzisa yonke isenti kolu bulungiseleli, kuquka ngaphezu kwee-R250,000 XNUMX zeealbham neencwadi. Sagqiba kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo ukuba siza nikeza ngobuninzi bomculo wam kunye nale mibhalo njengoko sinako. Ungayikhuphela mahala iCD yam yeRosari kunye neDivine Mercy Chaplet ukusuka CDBaby.com. Kwaye ezininzi iingoma zam zinxulunyaniswa emazantsi emibhalo yam xa inomxholo. Ewe, uyaphambana eh? Kodwa ke, ndisisidenge sikaKristu. Ngendibhale iincwadi ezingaphezu kwama-30 ngoku, kodwa sasivakalelwa kukuba “ILizwi Ngoku” limele liviwe yaye lifumaneke lula kubantu abaninzi kangangoko kunokwenzeka.
Ufumene ngaphandle kweendleko; ngaphandle kokuhlawula kufuneka unikele. (Mat 10: 8)
Kwangelo xesha, uSt. Paul wafundisa:
… INkosi iyalele ukuba abo bashumayela igospile mabiphile ngeendaba ezilungileyo. (1 kwabaseKorinte 9:14)
Okwangoku, nangona ndibhale icwecwe leeNdumiso, andikwazi qalisa ukucinga ngokwenza olunye ushicilelo. Isizathu kukuba kuye kwafuneka sivumele ezinye izinto ezibalulekileyo zityibilike. Ezinye zeefestile zethu ezineminyaka engamashumi amathathu anesine ubudala azivalwanga ncam endlwini yethu kobu busika. Izitena kunye ne-paringing ziyawa ngokoqobo. Iingcango azivalwanga kakuhle. Ndimelwe kukuzihoya ezi zinto njengaye nawuphi na omnye umntu. Oko, kunye noluhlu lwethu lwempahla luye luhla, ikhompyuter yethu yesitudiyo ingaphezulu kweminyaka eli-10 ubudala, kwaye sinamatyala angalindelekanga kunye nokonakala njengaye wonke umntu. Sikwanaye nomsebenzi ohlawulwayo, uColette, oqhuba zonke iiofisi zethu ezithengiswayo, iminxeba, kunye neminikelo kunye nazo zonke iindleko ezinkulu zokuqhuba obu bulungiseleli.
Uyazi ukuba andiluceli uncedo rhoqo—mhlawumbi kabini ngonyaka ubukhulu becala. Ukuba lo mpostile ukuchukumisile ngandlela ithile, ungacinga ngokucofa iqhosha lomnikelo elingezantsi? Inyaniso, inxalenye yokuqonda kwam ukuqhubeka nokuba ndinako na ukwenza oko uKristu andibizele kona, kwaye usayigcinile ingcuka emnyango.
Enkosi ngemithandazo yenu, ngothando nangenkxaso. Niyandisikelela njengokuba le mibhalo ibonakala isikelela abanye benu.
Uyathandwa.
