ISt. Faustina
UMKHOSI WOMUSA WAPHEZULU
Ishicilelwe okokuqala ngoNovemba 24, 2006. Ngibuyekeze lo mbhalo…
INI ungathi kwakungekaPapa John Paul II Emaphakathi umsebenzi? Ngabe kwakuwukwehlisa ubuKhomanisi? Ingabe bekuwukuhlanganisa amaKatolika nama-Orthodox? Ngabe ukuzalwa kwakuwukushunyayelwa okusha? Noma kwakuwukulethela iSonto “imfundiso yenkolo yomzimba”?
Ngamazwi kaPapa ongasekho uqobo:
Kusukela ekuqaleni kwenkonzo yami eSt Peter's See eRoma, ngithatha lo mlayezo [we-Divine Mercy] njengomsebenzi wami okhethekile. U-Providence unginikeze kulesi simo esikhona manje somuntu, iSonto kanye nomhlaba. Kungashiwo ukuthi lesi simo sinikeze lowo mlayezo kimi njengomsebenzi wami phambi kukaNkulunkulu. —JPII, Novemba 22, 1981 eShrine of Merciful Love eCollevalenza, e-Italy
Kwakuyindela, uFaustina Kowalska, umyalezo wakhe wesihe owaphoqa uPapa, owathi ethuneni lakhe ngo-1997, wathi “wakha isithombe salompapa.” Akagcinanga nje ngokwenza ubungcwele basePoland njengobungcwele, kepha ngokunyakaza okungajwayelekile kukapapa, izinto eziqinisekisiwe zesambulo sangasese asinikezwe umhlaba wonke ngokumemezela iSonto lokuqala emva kwePhasika, "iSonto LikaNkulunkulu Lomusa." Emdlalweni ophakeme wasezulwini, uPapa wafa emahoreni okuqala alolo suku loMkhosi. Uphawu lokuqinisekisa, njengoba kunjalo.
Kubalulekile lapho ubheka wonke umongo walo mlayezo we-Divine Mercy njengoba wembulelwe uSt. Faustina:
Khuluma nomhlaba ngomusa Wami… Kuyisibonakaliso sezikhathi zokuphela. Ngemuva kwalo kuzofika uSuku Lwezobulungiswa. Ngenkathi isikhathi sisekhona, mabavumele usizo ngomthombo womusa Wami. -Isihe SikaNkulunkulu Somphefumlo Wami, Idayari kaSt Faustina, 848
Zonke izinto eziguqukayo
Kubhalwe kahle ukuthi ngasekuqaleni kwekhulu leshumi nesishiyagalolunye (1884), uPapa Leo XIII waba nombono ngesikhathi seMisa lapho uSathane anikezwa khona ikhulu elilodwa lokuhlola iSonto. Izithelo zalokho kuhlolwa zisizungezile. Kepha manje sekuphele iminyaka engaphezu kwekhulu. Kusho ukuthini lokhu? Ukuthi amandla uNkulunkulu awanikeze Omubi azophela, futhi ngokunengqondo anikezwe isikhathi, kungekudala. Ngakho-ke, kube nokuqhuma kwangempela kwemibango emishadweni, emindenini, naphakathi kwamazwe onyakeni owodwa noma emibili edlule. Sibona ukwanda okuphawulekayo kwezigameko eMelika lapho kuphelele kubulawa imindeni, njengoba omunye noma bobabili abazali bethatha izimpilo zezingane zabo ngaphambi kokuzibulala. Ukungakhulumi ngokubulawa kwabantu okuqhubekayo e-Afrika noma ngamabhomu amaphekula eMiddle East. Ububi buyazibonakalisa ku ukufa.
UJan Connell, umbhali nommeli, wagcoba ababonisi be- I-Medjugorje okuvela kuye uMama Obusisiwe (lezi zibuko ngeke zisamukele isahlulelo seBandla zize ziphele. Bheka IMedjugorje: Amaqiniso Nje Nkosikazi). Ukulandela iseluleko sikaSt. Paul sokuhlola zonke iziphrofetho — kanye nokuvuleleka kweVatican ngemibono kwaba isivivinyo esikhulu kunazo zonke — kuwukuhlakanipha ukulalela okungenani okushiwoyo.
UMnumzane wethu kuthiwa uza nemilayezo yokuxwayisa, ukuguqula nokulungisa umhlaba ngalesi “sikhathi somusa” UConnell ushicilele imibuzo yakhe nezimpendulo zombonisi encwadini ebizwa Indlovukazi yeCosmos (IParaclete Press, 2005, uHlelo Olubukeziwe). Umboni ngamunye unikezwe "izimfihlo," ezizokwambulwa ngesikhathi esizayo, futhi ezizosebenzela ukuletha ushintsho olukhulu emhlabeni. Embuzweni oya kumbonisi uMirjana, uConnell ubuza:
Ngokuphathelene naleli khulu leminyaka, kuyiqiniso yini ukuthi uMama Obusisiwe wakutshela inkhulumomphendvulwano phakathi kukaNkulunkulu nosathane? Kuyo… uNkulunkulu wavumela udeveli ikhulu elilodwa leminyaka ukuthi asebenzise amandla anwetshiwe, futhi udeveli wakhetha zona kanye lezi sikhathis. - kk. 23
Umboni waphendula wathi “Yebo”, ecaphuna njengobufakazi bokuhlukana okukhulu esikubona ikakhulukazi emindenini yanamuhla. UConnell uyabuza:
Ngabe ukugcwaliseka kwezimfihlo zikaMedjugorje kuzokwephula amandla kaSathane?
Yebo.
Kanjani?
Lokho kuyingxenye yezimfihlo.(Bona ukubhala kwami: Ukukhipha amadlozi kweSilo)
Ungasitshela noma yini [maqondana nezimfihlo]?
Kuzoba nemicimbi emhlabeni njengesixwayiso emhlabeni ngaphambi kokuba isibonakaliso esibonakalayo sinikezwe isintu.
Ingabe lokhu kuzokwenzeka esikhathini sakho sokuphila?
Yebo, ngizoba ngufakazi kubo. - kk. 23, 21
ISIKHATHI SOMUSA NESIHE
Lezi zibuko okusolwa ukuthi zaqala zaqala eminyakeni engama-26 edlule. Uma uNkulunkulu enikeze leli khulu leminyaka elidlule lokuhlolwa, khona-ke siyazi ukuthi lelo khulu leminyaka lizoba futhi "yisikhathi somusa," ngokweZwi lakhe:
Ngoba ugcinile umyalezo wami wokukhuthazela, ngizokugcina uphephile ngesikhathi sokulingwa esizofika emhlabeni wonke ukuvivinya abakhileyo emhlabeni. (IsAmbulo 3:10)
Futhi,
UNkulunkulu uthembekile, futhi ngeke akuvumele ukuba ulingwe ngokungaphezu kwamandla akho, kodwa kanye nesilingo sizokunika nendlela yokuphunyuka, ukuze ukwazi ukusibekezelela. (1 KwabaseKorinte 10:13)
Umusa owodwa ongavamile kule nkathi uthi Isihe Sakhe. UNkulunkulu usinika lokho okungavamile kusho umusa Wakhe ezikhathini zethu, njengoba ngizokhuluma ngomzuzwana. Kodwa izindlela ezejwayelekile azikaze ziphele: ikakhulukazi amaSakramente okuvuma izono kanye noMthendeleko— “umthombo nengqungquthela” yokholo lwethu. Futhi, uJohn Paul II ukhombe kwiRosari nokuzinikela kuMariya njengezindlela ezibalulekile zomusa. Futhi nokho, uzohola eyodwa kuphela kumaSakramente, futhi ajule kuwo, enkabeni yenhliziyo kaJesu.
Lokhu kuvusa iphupho elinamandla likaSt. John Bosco owabona isikhathi lapho iSonto lizohlolwa kakhulu. Uthe,
Kuzoba nezinxushunxushu eBandleni. Ukuthula ngeke kubuye kuze kube yilapho uPapa ephumelela ukumisa isikebhe sikaPeter phakathi kwezinsika ezingama-Twin zokuzinikela koMthendeleko nokuzinikela ku-Our Lady. -Amaphupho Amane KaSt John Bosco, ihlanganiswe futhi yahlelwa nguFr. J. Bacchiarello, SDB
Ngikholwa ukuthi lokhu kuqiniswa kwaqala ngokumenyezelwa kukaPapa ongasekho “Wonyaka WeRosari” kanye “Nonyaka Wethembiso Lwesilo” ngaphambi nje kokuba ashone.
IHORA LOMUSA
Emlandweni olungiselelwe uPapa John Paul II ayezowunikeza ngeSonto LikaNkulunkulu Lomusa adlula kulo emhlabeni, wabhala:
Kubuntu, okuthi kwesinye isikhathi kubonakale kulahlekile futhi kubuswe ngamandla wobubi, ukuzazisa nokwesaba, iNkosi evukile inikela njengesipho uthando lwayo oluthethelelayo, olubuyisanayo futhi oluvule kabusha umoya wethemba. Uthando oluguqula izinhliziyo futhi lunikeze ukuthula. Izwe lidinga kangakanani ukuqonda nokwamukela isihe sikaNkulunkulu!
Yebo, likhona njalo ithemba. USt Paul uthi kusasele izinto ezintathu: ukholo, ithemba, futhi ukuthanda. Impela, uNkulunkulu uzohlanza umhlaba, hhayi ukuwubhubhisa. Uzongenelela ngoba Uyasithanda futhi ngeke asivumele ukuthi siziqothule. Labo abaseMuseni Wakhe abanakwesaba. "Ngoba ugcinile umyalezo wami wokubekezela, ngizokugcina uphephile ngesikhathi sovivinyo oluzofika emhlabeni wonke…"
Ngicabanga ukuthi izinhlupheko zalesi sikhathi samanje azilutho uma ziqhathaniswa nenkazimulo ezokwambulelwa thina. (KwabaseRoma 8:18)
Kepha ukuze sihlanganyele kuleyo nkazimulo, kufanele futhi sizimisele ukuhlanganyela ezinhluphekweni zikaKristu, njengoba bengilokhu ngibhala isonto lonke lePassion (2009). Kumele sizimisele ukuphenduka kwesethu thandanani nesono. Futhi lena yinhliziyo yomyalezo kaSt Faustina ovela kwidayari yakhe, yokuthi asesabi ukusondela kuJesu, noma ngabe izono zethu zimnyama kanjani:
Nginweba isikhathi somusa ngenxa [yezoni]…. Ngenkathi isikhathi sisekhona, mabavumele usizo emthonjeni womusa Wami… Lowo owenqaba ukudlula ngomnyango womusa Wami kumele adlule ngomnyango wobulungiswa Bami. -Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami, IDayari kaSt Faustina, 1160, 848, 1146
UMUSA WANGAPHAMBILI
NgoSt Faustina, uNkulunkulu unikeze ezine ezinkulu extraizindlela ezijwayelekile zomusa kubantu kulesi sikhathi somusa. Lokhu kuyasebenza kakhulu futhi ezinamandla izindlela zokubamba iqhaza ekusindisweni kwemiphefumulo, kufaka phakathi eyakho:
Ngalelo langa kuvuleke impela ukujula kwesihe Sami. Ngithulula ulwandle lonke lomusa kuleyo miphefumulo esondela emthonjeni womusa Wami. Umphefumulo ozovuma izono futhi uthole iSidlo esingcwele uzothola ukuthethelelwa okuphelele kwezono nokujeziswa. Ngalolo suku wonke amasango ezikhukhula angaphezulu lapho kuvuleka khona umusa. Ungavumeli umphefumulo wesabe ukusondela kimi, noma izono zawo zibomvu klebhu. Umusa wami mkhulu kangangokuba akukho mqondo, kungaba owomuntu noma owengelosi, ozokwazi ukukuqonda kuze kube phakade. - Umbhalo., 699
O, yimiphi imiusa emikhulu engizoyinikeza imiphefumulo esho le ncwajana: kona kanye ukujula komusa Wami wesisa kuyashukunyiswa ngenxa yalabo abathi i-chaplet. Bhala la mazwi, ndodakazi yami. Khuluma nomhlaba ngomusa Wami; sonke isintu asibonise umusa Wami ongenakulinganiswa. Kuyisibonakaliso sezikhathi zokugcina; emva kwalo luzofika usuku lobulungiswa. Ngenkathi isikhathi sisekhona mabasebenzise ifonti yesihe Sami; mabazuze ngeGazi naManzi okuphume kubo.- Umbhalo., 229, 848
III. IHORA LOMUSA
Ngehora lesithathu o, nxusa umusa Wami, ikakhulukazi izoni; futhi uma kungomzuzwana nje, cwilisa uMdlandla Wami, ikakhulukazi ekushiyeni Kwami ngesikhathi sobuhlungu: Leli yihora lomusa omkhulu womhlaba wonke. Ngizokuvumela ukuba ungene osizini Lwami lokufa. Kulelihora, ngeke ngenqabe lutho emphefumulweni olwenza isicelo Sami ngenxa Yentshiseko Yami. —Ibhid.
IV. UMFANEKISO Wesihe Saphezulu
Nginikeza abantu isitsha okufanele baqhubeke besiza ngaso ngomusa emthonjeni womusa. Lowo mkhumbi yilomfanekiso onesiginesha: “Jesu, ngithemba wena”… Ngalesi sithombe ngizobe ngipha imiphefumulo eminingi umusa; ngakho-ke yonke imiphefumulo mayikwazi ukufinyelela kuyo… Ngiyathembisa ukuthi umphefumulo ozohlonipha lo mfanekiso ngeke ubhubhe. Ngiyathembisa futhi ukunqoba izitha [zayo] esezivele zilapha emhlabeni, ikakhulukazi ngehora lokufa. Mina ngokwami ngizokuvikela njengenkazimulo Yami. —Ibhid. n. 327, 570, 48
ISIKHATHI SISEMFUSHANE
Isithombe se- band nokunwebeka yeza kimi ngenkathi ngizindla ngalezi zinto. Ukuqonda okuze nakho yilokhu: Imelela isihe sikaNkulunkulu, futhi selululwa kuze kube seqophelweni lokwephuka, futhi lapho lenza, ukuhlupheka okukhulu kuzoqala ukwenzeka emhlabeni. Kepha isikhathi ngasinye lapho umuntu ethandazela umusa emhlabeni, ukunwebeka kukhululeka kancane kuze kube yilapho izono ezinkulu zalesi sizukulwane ziqala ukusiqinisa futhi.
UNkulunkulu ufuna ukusindisa imiphefumulo — hhayi ukugcina amakhalenda. Kukithi ukuthi sisebenzise lezi zinsuku zomusa ngokuhlakanipha. Futhi kwangathi singawuphuthelwa umlayezo obaluleke kakhulu ngaphakathi koMusa WobuNkulunkulu: ukuthi sizosiza, ngobufakazi bethu nangemikhuleko, ukuletha eminye imiphefumulo kulokhu kukhanya kwaseZulwini.
… Sebenzelani ukusindiswa kwenu ngokwesaba nangokuthuthumela ... (Filipi 2:12, 15)
