AS Ndabhala kwi Ixesha loTshintsho, Ndabona ukukhawuleza ekubeni uThixo uza kuthetha ngokucacileyo kwaye aqonde kuthi ngabaprofeti baKhe njengoko izicwangciso zakhe zifikelela ekuzalisekeni. Eli lixesha lokumamela ngenyamekoOko kukuthi, ukuthandaza, ukuthandaza, ukuthandaza! Ke uya kuba nobabalo lokuqonda okuthethwa nguThixo kuwe ngala maxesha. Kuphela kungomthandazo oya kuthi unikwe ubabalo lokuva kunye nokuqonda, ukubona nokubona.
Kumyezo waseGetsemane, uYesu waya kuthandaza-hayi kube kanye-kodwa Ntathu amaxesha. Kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha esenza njalo, abapostile babelala. Ngaba uyawuva umphefumlo wakho uhendelwa ukozela? Ngaba uzibona usithi, "Yonke lento ayinakuba njalo. I-surreal kakhulu… Hayi, izinto zinokuqhubeka njengoko zihlala zinjalo ..." kubo, njengamaxhala, inkathalo kunye neziyolo ezigqithisileyo zobu bomi zitsalela umphefumlo wakho ebuthongweni obumnyama besono? Ewe, uSathana uyazi ukuba ixesha lakhe lifutshane kwaye usebenza ngokungadinwa ukukhohlisa abantwana bakaThixo.
Kule veki igqithileyo ndiye ndabona ukuba iNkosi yethu inosizi oluninzi… nento ezayo. Kukwayiloo ntlungu siyivileyo eGadini xa uYesu wabuyela kubapostile bakhe ababesoyile okwesithathu:
Usalele uphumle na? Kwanele. Ilixa lifikile. (UMarko 14:41)
Uphinda-phinda la mazwi kuthi ngobu busuku ngaphakathi kwentliziyo yakhe eNgcwele, eyonzakeleyo ngokwala kwehlabathi ukumamkela kwakhona:
Bukela uze uthandaze kunye nam ilixa elinye. Kuba ndiya kuza njengesela ebusuku.
Hlalani niphaphile kwaye niphaphile, bazalwana noodade abathandekayo… kuba ngumlindo wesithathu lo!
