Ottawa, Canada
Ishicilelwe okokuqala ngo-Ephreli 14, 2006.
Uma umlindi ebona inkemba iza futhi engashayi icilongo ukuze abantu bangaxwayiswa, futhi inkemba ifike, ithathe noma ngubani kubo; lowo muntu uyasuswa ebubini bakhe, kepha igazi lakhe ngiyakulibiza esandleni sombonisi. (Hezekeli 33: 6)
NGINGU akekho noyedwa ozoya kobuka okungaphezu kwamandla emvelo. Kepha okwenzekile ngesonto eledlule ngenkathi ngingena e-Ottawa, iCanada bekubonakala njengokuvakasha kweNkosi ngokungangabazeki. Ukuqinisekiswa kwe-powerful izwi nesixwayiso.
Ngenkathi uhambo lwami lwamakhonsathi luthatha umndeni wami nami ngadlula e-United States ngaleli Lente, nganginomuzwa wokulindela kusuka ekuqaleni…
IZIMPAWU
Njengesibonakaliso salokhu kulindela kwakungenye yezivivinyo ezinzima kakhulu zangaphakathi engake ngabhekana nazo isikhathi eside. Eqinisweni, lolu hambo cishe alwenzekanga ngochungechunge lweziphazamiso ezinkulu. Ihlangane ngokuyisimangaliso ngomzuzwana wokugcina — imicimbi eyishumi nesithupha ibibhukelwe phakathi nesonto!
Asizange sikuhlele ngale ndlela, kepha ukuhamba kwethu kugcine kusidlulise kwezinhlekelele ezinkulu ezintathu zase-United States emlandweni waseMelika. Sidlule IGalveston, eTexas lapho isiphepho esikhulu sathatha khona izimpilo ezingaphezu kuka-6000 ngo-1900… saze salinyazwa ngonyaka odlule ngesiphepho uRita.
Amakhonsathi ethu abe esesiyisa New Orleans lapho sizibonele khona mathupha lokho omunye umhlali akuchaze njengomonakalo “wamanani eBhayibheli.” Ukucekelwa phansi kweSiphepho uKatrina kuyesabeka futhi akukholakali… incazelo yakhe, inembile ngokubabazekayo.
Lapho siya eNew Hampshire, sasidlula ngendlela New York City. Ngengozi, ngithathe umgwaqo onguthelawayeka obhekiswe ezimotweni zabagibeli kuphela, futhi ngaphambi kokuba sazi, ibhasi lethu lokuvakasha laliseduze Ground Zero: imbobo evulekile emhlabathini, enezinkumbulo ezinde, eziqabulayo zodwa zokuyigcwalisa.
IZWI ELINGALINDELEKILE
Kusihlwa kaningana, lapho silungiselela ukuya e-Ottawa—inhlokodolobha yaseCanada—Bengiqhubeka ngithi kuLea ngizwe sengathi uNkulunkulu usibonise le mizi ngesizathu--kodwa yini? Ngalobo busuku lapho ngangilungiselela ukulala, ngabheka ibhayibheli lomkami futhi ngaba nalesi sifiso esikhulu sokulithatha. Ngivale amehlo ami ngezwa amagama athi “Amosi 6….” Akuyona incwadi engiyifunde kakhulu. Kepha ngaphendukela kuyo noma kunjalo, ngilalela engikuzwile.
Engikufundile kungenzeka ukuthi kwenzeka ngengozi, noma uNkulunkulu ekhuluma ngokucacile:
“Maye kini, nina eninokuphila okulula eSiyoni, nani enizizwa niphephile eSamariya, nina baholi abakhulu balesi sizwe esikhulu sakwa-Israyeli, nina abantu abacela usizo kubo! Hambani nibheke edolobheni laseKhaline. Bese uqhubeka uye edolobheni elikhulu laseHamati bese wehlela emzini wamaFilisti iGati. Ingabe zazingcono kunombuso wakwaJuda nowakwa-Israyeli? Ingabe insimu yabo yayinkulu kuneyakho? Uyenqaba ukuvuma ukuthi usuku lwenhlekelele luyeza, kepha okwenzayo kuletha lolo suku kuphela.
INkosi EnguMbusi uSomandla ikhiphe lesi sexwayiso: “Ngiyakuzonda ukuziqhenya kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; Ngiyazidelela izindlu zabo zikanokusho. Inhloko-dolobha yabo ngiyoyinikela ezitheni. Ngizothumela ibutho lakwamanye amazwe ukuba likuhlwithe kusukela eHamati Pass enyakatho kuye emfuleni i-Arabah eningizimu. (IGood News Catholic Bible)
Ngokushesha, ngaqonda ukuthi amadolobha amathathu asendulo afanekisela amadolobha amathathu esiwabonile, nenhloko-dolobha ebizwa ngayo Ottawa. Futhi, ngizwe ukuthi iNkosi ibingakhulumi nabaholi bezepolitiki baseCanada kuphela, kepha nabaholi beSonto eSontweni laseCanada, futhi, nasesizweni sonke.
Kodwa ngazibuza, “Ngabe ngiyaqamba lokhu? Ngabe leli yizwi elivela eNkosini ngempela? Ngabe kufanele ngiyinike abantu baseCanada njengoba ngiya enhlokodolobha kusasa? ” Nginqume ukuvele ngilale kuyo, ngenze iphutha ngokuqapha.
UKUFANELELA
Ngakusasa njengoba sasibhekise amabombo emingceleni yedolobha, ngaqala ukuthandaza iRosary ne-Divine Mercy Chaplet, njengoba kwakungoLwesihlanu, kanye neHora of Mercy (3-4pm). Ngawo kanye lo mzuzu singena emikhawulweni yedolobha, ngokungazelelwe futhi ngibe "ngiphuze kakhulu ngoMoya," noma okungenani, kwaba njalo-ke. Angikaze ngibhekane nokufana nalokhu phambilini, lapho umzimba wami wonke, umoya nomphefumulo wami kwagcwala uMoya kaNkulunkulu. Ize ngaphandle kwesixwayiso futhi yathatha imizuzu engama-20 size sifike kwikhonsathi lokuqala kwamane. Umzimba wami waqhaqhazela kwaba sengathi kuduma izulu elingcwele! Ngangikwazi ukushayela (yize bonke abanye bomndeni babecabanga ukuthi lokhu okuhlangenwe nakho kuyahlekisa!)
Ngakho-ke ngalobo busuku, ngabelana nezethameli umBhalo engiwutholile izolo ebusuku. Futhi ngingeze nalokhu…
Umbhalo usitshela ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhona ukuthanda, HHAYI uNkulunkulu ngothando. Uthando lwakhe alwehli ngokulingana nokuba kwethu nesono, kepha luhlala njalo, alunamibandela. Kodwa-ke, ngoba uyasithanda, ngeke abuke engenzi lutho njengoba imiphakathi ihamba endleleni yokubhujiswa (umphumela wokushiya intando nemiyalo yakhe emihle).
Njengoba nje umama onothando ememeza exwayisa lapho ingane yakhe isizothinta isitofu esishisayo, kanjalo noNkulunkulu uBaba ukhipha izexwayiso ngezinceku zaKhe ngalokho okuzoholela ekutheni isintu siqhubeke nokuhlubuka (bheka KwabaseRoma 1: 18-20; Izambulo 2: 4-5). UNkulunkulu akasilahli! Thina, kunalokho, sikhetha ukushiya isiphephelo sokuvikelwa Kwakhe. Futhi manje, njengoba omunye umpristi waseMelika ekubeka, “ICanada nayo iyavikeleka.”
Engikuzwayo kuleli gama u-a umyalezo wesihe, ukumemeza okuvela eZulwini ukusibiza sibuyele enkululekweni yokuphenduka nasenjabulweni nasezibusisweni zokuhlangana noNkulunkulu ngokulungiswa kabusha kwentando yethu yobuzwe nentando yaKhe. UNkulunkulu ubekezela ngokweqile. 'Uyephuza ukuthukuthela futhi ucebile ngesihe.' Kepha njengoba izwe lethu liqhubeka nokukhipha isisu ikusasa lalo, lichaze kabusha umshado, futhi libeke ezomnotho nokunakekelwa kwezempilo ngaphambi kokuziphatha — ingabe ukubekezela kukaNkulunkulu kuyancipha? Lapho iphela ngo-Israyeli, wahlanza isizwe ayesithanda ngokusijikela ezitheni zaso.
Ngifuna ukuqaphela, njengoba iningi lenu lazi, ukuthi sicishe asizange sifike e-Ottawa njengoba umkami wavele wagula ngesifo esibuhlungu samathoni walaliswa esibhedlela. Kodwa ngemithandazo yakho nangesibonakaliso esiyisimangaliso esivela kuPapa John Paul II, uLea washeshe wajika ekhoneni, futhi sakwazi ukuqedela uhambo lwethu futhi sanikeza lo myalezo wothando, umusa — kanye nesixwayiso — esizweni saseCanada.
Abezombusazwe baseCanada bakubeke kwacaca ukuthi bahlose ukuhlala enkambweni yamanje yokusuka ezimpandeni zomlando nezokuziphatha zaleli zwe. Kumele sibathandazele futhi siqhubeke nokukhuluma iqiniso. Kumele futhi sithandazele abelusi bethu ukuthula kwabo okuphazamisayo (ngaphandle kwabambalwa). Ngenkathi izimvu eziningi ziqhubeka nokulahleka kugagasi lokuziphatha okuhle, ikakhulukazi abasha, sekuyisikhathi sokuthi lezo zimvu ezisenamandla ziphakamise amazwi azo ngokungesabi…
Mhlawumbe kunjalo, njengoba uJohn Paul II asho, “Ihora lamarhamente.”
Lapho siyeka ukuba ngamaLungu ePhalamende, ngokudabukisayo cishe siyokhohlwa ngabanye abantu — kodwa hhayi uNkulunkulu, owazi ngamunye wethu ngokuseduze. Uma uNkulunkulu uqobo engumsunguli womshado ngokweqiniso, ngakho-ke masikwazi ukuziphendulela kahle uma simi phambi Kwakhe, njengoba sonke kumele sime phambi Kwakhe. -UPierre Lemieux, Ilungu lephalamende elilondolozayo e-Ontario ngikhuluma ngoDisemba 6, 2006 ngaphambi kokuvota kokuvula kabusha impikiswano yomshado wezitabane eCanada. Isiphakamiso sehluliwe.
Uma abantu bami ababizwa ngegama lami bezithoba, bakhuleke, bafune ubuso bami, babuye ezindleleni zabo ezimbi, ngiyakuzwa ngisezulwini, ngibaxolele izono zabo, ngiphulukise izwe labo. (2 IziKr. 7:14)
Ukusekelwa kwakho kwezezimali nemithandazo yakho kungani
ufunda lokhu namuhla.
Akubusise futhi ngiyabonga.
Ukuhamba noMark in The Manje iZwi,
chofoza isibhengezo esingezansi ukuze ubhalise.
I-imeyili yakho ngeke yabiwe nanoma ngubani.
