NINI Izulu lithembisa "isiphephelo" kithina kulesi siphepho samanje (bheka Isiphepho Esikhulu), kusho ukuthini lokho? Ngoba umbhalo ubonakala uphikisana.
Ngoba ugcinile umyalezo wami wokukhuthazela, ngizokugcina uphephile ngesikhathi sokulingwa esizofika emhlabeni wonke ukuvivinya abakhileyo emhlabeni. (IsAm. 3:10)
Kepha-ke ithi:
[Isilo] savunyelwa futhi ukuba silwe nabangcwele futhi sibanqobe, sanikwa igunya phezu kwazo zonke izinhlanga, abantu, izilimi nezizwe. (IsAm 13: 7)
Futhi-ke siyafunda:
Owesifazane wanikezwa amaphiko amabili okhozi olukhulu, ukuze akwazi ukundiza aye endaweni yakhe ehlane, lapho, kude nenyoka, anakekelwa khona unyaka, iminyaka emibili, nengxenye yonyaka. (IsAm 12:14)
Futhi-ke, ezinye izindima zikhuluma ngesikhathi sokujeziswa esingabandlululi:
Bheka, uJehova udalula umhlaba, uwenza incithakalo; uyiphendula abhekise phansi, asakaze abantu bakhona: umuntu ovamile nompristi ngokufanayo, inceku nenkosi, incekukazi njengenkosikazi yayo, umthengi njengomthengisi, umbolekisi njengomboleki, okweletayo njengomkweletwayo… (Isaya 24: 1-2) )
Ngakho-ke, ingabe iNkosi isho ukuthini uma ithi izosigcina “siphephile”?
UKUVIKELWA NGOKOMOYA
Ukuvikelwa uKrestu akuthembisa uMlobokazi Wakhe kuqakatheke khulu okungokomoya ukuvikelwa. Lokho wukuthi, ukuvikelwa kokubi, ukulingwa, ukukhohliswa, futhi ekugcineni, nesihogo. Kubuye kube usizo lwaphezulu olunikezwa phakathi kokulingwa ngezipho zikaMoya oNgcwele: ukuhlakanipha, ukuqonda, ulwazi, nokuqina.
Bonke abangibizayo ngizobaphendula; Ngizoba nabo osizini; Ngizobakhulula ngibanikeze udumo. (IHubo 91:15)
Singabahambi. Leli akulona ikhaya lethu. Ngenkathi ukuvikelwa ngokomzimba kunikezwa abanye ukubasiza ngokuqhubekayo ukuqedela umsebenzi wabo lapha emhlabeni, akusizi kangako uma umphefumulo ulahlekile.
Kaningi, ngiye ngashukumiseka ukuba ngibhale futhi ngikhulume ngalezi zixwayiso: ukuthi kunefayela le- i-tsunami yenkohliso (bheka Umgunyathi Ozayo) esezodedelwa kulo mhlaba, igagasi lokubhujiswa okungokomoya osekuqalile. Kuzoba ngumzamo wokuletha ukuthula nokuphepha emhlabeni, kepha ngaphandle kukaKristu.
Inkohliso Yomphik'ukristu isivele iqala ukwakheka emhlabeni ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho kwenziwa isimangalo sokubona emlandweni lelo themba likaMesiya elingafinyelelwa ngaphezu komlando ngokwahlulelwa komkhathi. -Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika,n. 676
Njengoba ukukhanya kweQiniso kunje smot kuya ngokwanda emhlabeni, kuya ngokuya kukhanya ngokwengeziwe kuleyo miphefumulo ethi “yebo” kuJesu, “yebo” kuMoya ofuna ukuzinikela okujulile nokukhulu. Ngikholwa ngokweqiniso ukuthi lesi yisikhathi sezintombi eziyishumi (Math 25: 1-13), isikhathi sokugcwalisa "izibani" zethu ngomusa wecala elizayo. Kungakho lesi sikhathi sibizwe nguMama wethu Obusisiwe: “Tisikhathi somusa. ” Ngiyakuncenga ukuthi ungawathathi kancane lamagama. Wena kudingeka ukulungisa indlu yakho yokomoya. Sincane kakhulu isikhathi esisele. Udinga ukuthi uqiniseke ukuthi usesimweni somusa, okungukuthi, uma usuphendukile esonweni esibi kakhulu futhi wabeka inkambo yakho Endleleni, leyo intando kaNkulunkulu.
Uma ngithi "isikhathi esincane kakhulu", lokho kungasho amahora, izinsuku, noma neminyaka. Kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuguqula? Abanye abantu bakhala ngokuthi uMary ubelokhu evela kwezinye izindawo iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-25, nokuthi lokhu kubukeka kweqisa. Ngingasho nje ukuthi ngifisa sengathi uNkulunkulu angamvumela ahlale amanye amashumi amahlanu!
UKUVIKELWA KOMZIMBA
Esinye sezizathu esenza uNkulunkulu asibizele ukuthi sibe “sesimweni somusa” yilesi: kunemicimbi ezayo lapho imiphefumulo izobizwa njengekhaya khona ngokuphazima kweso--Izijeziso ezizothatha imiphefumulo eminingi iye lapho iya khona ingunaphakade. Ingabe lokhu kubangela ukwesaba? Kungani? Bafowethu nodadewethu, uma inkanyezi enomsila iza emhlabeni, ngiyakhuleka ukuthi ingishaya ekhanda! Uma kuzoba nokuzamazama komhlaba, kwangathi kungangigwinya! Ngifuna ukuya ekhaya! …kepha kuze kube yilapho umsebenzi wami usuqedile. Futhi kunjalo nakuwe uMama wethu abelungiselela zonke lezi zinyanga neminyaka. Unomsebenzi wokuletha imiphefumulo eMbusweni, futhi amasango esihogo ngeke anqobe. Ingabe awuyona ingxenye yeSonto, itshe eliphilayo laleli thempeli elingcwele? Lapho-ke amasango esihogo ngeke anqobe uze uqedele ukuthunywa kwakho.
Ngakho-ke, kuzoba nesilinganiso esithile sokuvikelwa ngokwenyama kwabangcwele ngesikhathi sezilingo ezizayo ukuze iSonto liqhubeke nomsebenzi walo. Kuzoba nezimangaliso ezingakholeki eziyoqala ukuba yindawo evamile njengoba uhamba phakathi kwezinxushunxushu: kusukela ekuphindaphindeni kokudla, ekuphulukisweni kwemizimba, ekukhishweni kwemimoya emibi. Uzobona amandla namandla kaNkulunkulu kulezi zinsuku. Amandla kaSathane kuthanda khawulwa:
Ngisho namademoni ayahlolwa yizingilosi ezinhle hleze zilimaze kakhulu ngangawo. Ngendlela efanayo, Umphik'ukristu ngeke enze okubi kakhulu ngendlela abefisa ngayo. —USt. UThomas Aquinas, ISumma Theologica, Ingxenye I, Q.113, Ubuciko. 4
NgokwemiBhalo nokunye okuningi okuyimfihlakalo, kuzoba khona futhi “nezindawo zokuzivikela” ezingokoqobo, izindawo ezibekwe eceleni nguNkulunkulu lapho abathembekile bazothola khona ukuvikelwa nguNkulunkulu, ngisho nasemandleni obubi. Isandulela salokhu kwaba lapho iNgelosi uGabriyeli yayalela uJoseph ukuba athathe uMariya noJesu baye eGibhithe — e ugwadule yezokuphepha. Noma uSt. Paul ebalekela esiqhingini ngemuva kokuphahlazeka komkhumbi, noma ukukhululwa ejele yizingelosi. Zimbalwa nje izindaba ezingenakubalwa zokuvikelwa kukaNkulunkulu ngokomzimba ezinganeni Zakhe.
Ezikhathini zanamuhla, ngubani ongakhohlwa isimangaliso sikaHiroshima eJapan? Abapristi abangamaJesuit abayisishiyagalombili basinda ebhomu le-athomu elaphonswa edolobheni labo… amabhulokhi ayisishiyagalombili kuphela ukusuka ekhaya labo. Abantu abayingxenye yesigidi babhujiswa babazungeza, kodwa abapristi bonke basinda. Ngisho nesonto eliseduze labhujiswa ngokuphelele, kodwa indlu ababekuyo yalimala kancane.
Sikholwa ukuthi sisindile ngoba besiphila umyalezo kaFatima. Sasihlala futhi sithandaza iRosari nsuku zonke kulelo khaya. —Fr. UHubert Schiffer, ongomunye wabasindile abaphila eminye iminyaka engama-33 bephilile futhi engenayo nemiphumela engemihle evela emisebeni; www.kugcola.com
Leyo, zaziseMphongolweni.
Esinye isibonelo sisendaweni yase I-Medjugorje. Kwesinye isenzakalo eminyakeni yokuqala ye- izinsolo lapho (okubikwa ukuthi kusaqhubeka ngenkathi iVatican ivule ikhomishini entsha yokuthola isiphetho "esinqumayo" ophenyweni lwabo lapho), amaphoyisa obuKhomanisi azama ukubopha ababoni. Kepha lapho befika e-Apparition Hill, bahamba badlula izingane ezazibonakala zingabonakali kuziphathimandla. Ekuqaleni, ngesikhathi sempi yaseBalkan, kwavela izindaba zokuthi imizamo yokuqhuma ibhomu kulo muzi kanye nesonto yehluleka ngokuyisimangaliso.
Futhi-ke kunendaba enamandla ye- Immaculée Ilibagiza owasinda ekuqothulweni kwabantu eRwanda ngo-1994. Yena nabanye besifazane abayisikhombisa bacasha endlini encane encane izinyanga ezintathu isixuku esingababulali esasilahlekile, yize babeseshe indlu kaningi.
Akuphi lawa ma-refuge? Anginalwazi. Abanye bathi bayazi. Engikwaziyo ukuthi, uma uNkulunkulu efisa ukuthi ngiyithole — futhi ngiyathandaza futhi ukulalela, inhliziyo yami igcwele uwoyela wokholo, Uzonakekela konke. Indlela yentando Yakhe engcwele iholela entandweni Yakhe engcwele.
UKUDLULA KWEBANDLA
Ingqikithi enkulu esebenza kuyo yonke imibhalo ekulesi siza imfundiso yokuthi:
Ngaphambi kokuza kwesibili kukaKristu iBandla kumele lidlule esivivinyweni sokugcina esizonyakazisa ukholo lwamakholwa amaningi. -Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika,n. 676
Kumele siqaphele ukuthi, njengamaKatolika, asizisunguli owethu umqondo oyiphutha wokuthi “umhuheko,”Uhlobo lokuphunyuka emhlabeni kukho konke ukuhlupheka. Okungukuthi, asikwazi ukucasha esiphambanweni, okuyiyona “indlela ewumngcingo” esangena ngayo ekuphileni okuphakade. Ngezikhathi zokugcina, impi, indlala, izinhlupho, ukuzamazama komhlaba, ukushushiswa, abaprofethi bamanga, uMphikukristu ...kepha ungawubhubhisi in lezo abaphephele eMphongolweni.
Ngoba uSomandla akabakhiphi ngokuphelele abangcwele ekulingweni kwakhe, kodwa uvikela kuphela umuntu wabo wangaphakathi, lapho kuhlala khona ukholo, ukuze ngesilingo esivelele bakhule emseni. —USt. Augustine, Idolobha LikaNkulunkulu, Incwadi XX, Ch. 8
Empeleni, wukholo oluzogcina lunqobe amandla obumnyama, futhi lungenise isikhathi sokuthula, i Ukunqoba Kwenhliziyo Engaphelele kaMariya, ukunqoba kweSonto.
Ukunqoba okunqoba umhlaba ukukholwa kwethu. (1 Johane 5: 4)
Ngaphezu kwakho konke-ke, kunjalo ukholo kumele sigcwalise izibani zethu nge: ukuthembela okuphelele ekuhlinzekweni nasothandweni lukaNkulunkulu owazi ngqo ukuthi yini esiyidingayo, nini, kanjani. Ucabanga ukuthi kungani izilingo zikhule kakhulu kwabathembekile eminyakeni yamuva nje? Ngikholwa ukuthi yisandla sikaNkulunkulu, sisiza abancane baKhe ukuthi baqale bazithululele (bona uqobo), bese begcwalisa amalambu abo - okungenani labo abamukele lezi zivivinyo, noma ngabe ekuqaleni simelane nakho. Yilokhu ukholo okuyi izinto wethemba lethu, ubufakazi bezinto ezingabonwa…. ikakhulukazi lapho sizungezwe ubumnyama bezinsizi.
INkosi iyakwazi ukutakula okholwayo ekulingweni nokugcina abangalungile bejeziswa kuze kube sosukwini lokwahlulelwa… Isiliva labo negolide labo ngeke likwazi ukubasindisa ngosuku lolaka lukaJehova. (2 Pet 2: 9; Zef 1:18)
… Akekho noyedwa kulabo abaphephela kuye oyolahlwa. (IHubo 34:22)
Ishicilelwe okokuqala ngoDisemba 15, 2008.
