UKUHLAWULWA KWELENTEN
Usuku 3
Bahlobo abathandekayo, ayisiyokucamngca le bendiyicwangcisile namhlanje. Nangona kunjalo, bendijongana nengxaki enye emva kwenye kwezi veki zimbini zidlulileyo kwaye, enyanisweni, bendizibhala ezi zinto zicamngca ezinzulwini zobusuku, umndilili weeyure ezine kuphela zokulala ebusuku kwiveki ephelileyo. Ndidiniwe. Kwaye, emva kokucima imililo embalwa namhlanje, ndathandaza malunga nento emayenziwe- kwaye lo mbhalo weza engqondweni. Kum, lelinye lawona mazwi "abalulekileyo" entliziyweni yam kulo nyaka uphelileyo, nanjengoko endincede kwizilingo ezininzi ngokuzikhumbuza ukuba "ndithembeke." Ukuqiniseka, lo myalezo uyinxalenye ebalulekileyo yale Lenten Retreat. Enkosi ngokuqonda.
Ndiyaxolisa ngokuba ayikho i-podcast yanamhlanje… ndiphelelwe yigesi, kuba iphantse yabetha intsimbi yesibini ekuseni. Ndine “lizwi” elibalulekileyo eRashiya endiza kulipapasha kungekudala… into endiye ndathandaza ngayo ukusukela ngehlobo elidlulileyo. Enkosi ngemithandazo yakho…
PHA Zininzi izidubedube ezenzekayo kwihlabathi lethu, ngokukhawuleza, kangangokuba zinokongamela. Kukho ukubandezeleka okukhulu, iinkxwaleko, kunye nokuxakeka ebomini bethu kangangokuba kunokusidimaza. Kukho ukungasebenzi kakuhle, ukuwohloka koluntu, kunye neyantlukwano enokuthi ibangele. Ngapha koko, ukuhla ngokukhawuleza kwehlabathi ebumnyameni kula maxesha kushiye abaninzi benoloyiko, bephelelwe lithemba, bedidekile… ekhubazekile.
Kodwa impendulo kuko konke oku, bazalwana noodade, kukuba ngokulula thembeka.
Kuzo zonke iintlanganiso zakho namhlanje, kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakho, ekuphumleni kwakho, ekuzonwabiseni nasekusebenzisaneni, indlela eya phambili yile thembeka. Kwaye oku kuthetha ukuba, ke, kuya kufuneka unakekele izivamvo zakho. Kuthetha ukuba kuya kufuneka unike ingqalelo ukuthanda kukaThixo kumzuzu ngamnye. Kuthetha ukuba kuya kufuneka wenze yonke into oyenzayo ngenjongo yothando kuThixo nakummelwane. UCatherine Catherine Doherty wakha wathi,
Izinto ezincinci zenziwe ngokugqithiseleyo kwaye zaphinda zenziwa ngenxa yothando lukaThixo: oku kuya kukwenza ube ngcwele. Kulungile. Musa ukufuna ukukhubazeka okukhulu kweempazamo okanye unayo. Funa ukubulawa mihla le ngokwenza into ngokugqwesileyo. —Abantu beThawula kunye naManzi, ku Amaxesha ekhalenda yoBabalo, January 13th
Inxalenye yokwahlulwa, ke, kuthetha ukufulathela iziphazamiso ezincinci kunye nezinto ezibangela umdla ezithunyelwa ngongendawo rhoqo ukuze asenze ongathembekanga. Ndikhumbula ndihleli phesheya kwetafile kwa-Msgr. UJohn Essef, owayekhe wangumlawuli wokomoya kaMama Teresa kwaye owayekhokelwa nguSt Pio. Ndabelana naye ngomthwalo wobulungiseleli bam kunye nemiceli mngeni endijongene nayo. Ujonge ngamehlo am kwaye wathula imizuzwana eliqela. Emveni koko wangqiyama phambili wathi, "uSathana akunyanzelekanga ukuba akususe ukusuka ku-10 ukuya ku-1, kodwa ukusuka ku-10 ukuya ku-9. Into ekufuneka eyenzile kukukwenza. ukuphazamisa wena. ”
Kwaye kuyinyani kangakanani oku. USt Pio wakhe wathi kwintombi yakhe yokomoya:
Raffaelina, uya kukhuseleka kumaqhinga afihlakeleyo kaSathana ngokwala iingcebiso zakhe kwakamsinya zisiza. —UDisemba 17, 1914, Isikhokelo sokomoya sikaPadre Pio semihla ngemihla, Iincwadi Zabakhonzi, iphe. 9
Uyabona, ukulingwa kuya kuhlala kukulandela, mfundi othandekayo. Kodwa isilingo ngokwaso ayisosono. Kuxa siqala ukonwabisa ezi ngcebiso apho siba ngumgibe khona (nceda ufunde I-Tiger kwi-Cage). Ukuphazamiseka okungacacanga, ingcinga, umfanekiso kwibar esecaleni yesikhangeli sakho… idabi liphumelela ngokulula xa uzikhaba ezi zilingo ngoko nangoko. Kulula kakhulu ukuhamba umlo kunokuba uzamane nendlela yakho yokuphuma kuwo!
Abantu abaninzi bayandibhalela babuze ukuba bashiye i-US okanye bathenge ukutya, njl. Kodwa ndixolele ukuba konke endinokubonakala ndikuthetha ngale mihla yile thembeka. Isibhalo sithi,
Ilizwi lakho lisisibane seenyawo zam, nokukhanya emendweni wam. Ndizimisela ukuba ndiphumeze intando yakho ngokuzeleyo, naphakade. (INdumiso 119: 105, 112)
Isibane, hayi isibane sentloko. Ukuba uthembekile kuThixo kumzuzu ngamnye, ukuba ulandela ukukhanya kwesibane sakhe… ungaphoswa njani inyathelo elilandelayo, ukujika okulandelayo endleleni? Awuyi kuyenza. Kwaye ngaphezu koko, intando kaThixo iba kukutya kwakho, amandla akho, kunye nokukhuselwa kwakho kwimigibe yotshaba. Njengoko iNdumiso 18:31 isitsho, Uyingweletshetshe kubo bonke abazimela ngaye. Indawo yokusabela yintando yakhe, ethi ikukhusele ekubanjweni ngongendawo. Ukuthanda kwakhe kuko okunika umphefumlo uxolo nokuphumla kwenene, okuvelisa iziqhamo zovuyo.
Ngenxa yoko ke, masizame ukungena koko kuphumla, ukuze kungabikho namnye ubuya eyele kwakuloo mzekelo wokungeva. (Ufundo lwanamhlanje lokuqala)
Kwaye ndingongeza — ungaziva unetyala kuphila. Phila ubomi bakho. Yonwabela obu bomi, wonke umzuzu wabo, ngokulula kunye nentliziyo esulungekileyo ebenza bube mnandi ngokwenene. INkosi yethu ngokwayo isifundisa ukuba ukukhathazeka ngengomso kulilize. Ke ngoku ukuba sihlala kumaxesha okugqibela? Impendulo yokunyamezela kule mihla kukulula thembeka (kwaye oku kuvela kumntu obhala kwizihloko ezinzima kakhulu kule mihla!)
Ngenye imini-ngexesha.
Ngaba wohlulekile? Ngaba awuthembekanga? Ngaba ubanjwe luloyiko, mhlawumbi sisohlwayo okanye lamaxesha esiphila kuwo? Ngoko ke zithobe phambi koYesu njengomntu onedumbe kwiVangeli kwaye uthi, “Nkosi, ndididekile, ndisasazekile, ndiphazamisekile… Ndingumoni, ndingumkhenkce kukungasebenzi kakuhle kwam. Ndiphilise Nkosi… ”Impendulo yaKhe kuwe imibini:
Mntwana, izono zakho zixolelwe… Ndithi kuwe, vuka, uthathe ukhuko lwakho, ugoduke.
Yiyo i, thembeka.
