Okuthile kimi kungitshela ukuthi kuzodingeka ngazi ukuthi le nkanyezi ikuphi esikhathini esizayo. Ngakho-ke kulobubusuku, ngiphinde ngabheka phezulu esibhakabhakeni ngengqondo ngikubona. Bese ngingena kwikhompyutha yami, ngifunde la mazwi umzala wami usanda kungithumelela i-imeyili:
Noma ngabe ungubani ozibona wena phakathi nalesi sikhathi sokufa ukuthi ukhukhuleka emanzini okhohlisayo, ngesihe semimoya namagagasi, kunokuhamba emhlabathini oqinile, ungafulathe amehlo akho ebukhazikhazini bale nkanyezi eqondisayo, ngaphandle kokuthi ufisa ukucwiliswa yisiphepho.
Bheka inkanyezi, biza uMariya. … Naye njengomhlahlandlela, awuyikuduka, ngenkathi umncenga, awusoze waphela amandla ... uma ehamba phambi kwakho, awuyikudinwa; uma ekhombisa umusa kuwe, finyelela umgomo. —USt. Bernard waseClarivaux, ocashunwe kuleli sonto nguPapa Benedict XVI
“Inkanyezi Yokuvangela Okusha” —Isihloko esinikezwe uMama Wethu waseGuadalupe nguPapa John Paul II
NGESIKHATHI ingxoxo kuleli sonto nomndeni, umukhwe wami wavele waziphazamisa,
Kukhona ukwahlukana okukhulu okwenzekayo. Uyayibona. Abantu benza lukhuni izinhliziyo zabo kokuhle…
Kwangimangaza ukuphawula kwakhe, njengoba leli kwakuyigama “elalikhulunywe yiNkosi enhliziyweni yami esikhathini esedlule (bheka Ushushiso: Petal Second.)
Kuyafaneleka ukuzwa leli gama futhi, kulokhu livela emlonyeni womlimi, njengoba singena enkathini lapho inhlanganisela iqala ukuhlukanisa ukolweni kumakhoba.

LET singabanjwa silele ngomuzwa wamanga wokuthula nenduduzo. Emasontweni ambalwa edlule, amazwi ayaqhubeka ukuzwakala enhliziyweni yami:
Ukuthula ngaphambi kwesiphepho…
Ngibona ukuphuthuma futhi ukuze ngigcine inhliziyo yami ikuNkulunkulu ngaso sonke isikhathi. Noma njengoba umuntu oyedwa abelane nami "ngegama" kuleli sonto,

Ngempela, lesi yisikhathi sokususa izinkanuko zenyama ezilwa noMoya. Njalo Ukuvuma futhi Umthendeleko anjengezikele ezimbili zesikele esingokomoya.
Bhekani, ihora liyeza futhi selifikile lapho ngamunye wenu eyohlakazeka… Emhlabeni nizoba nenkinga, kodwa yimani isibindi, ngiwunqobile umhlaba. (UJohn 16: 33)
Gqokani iNkosi uJesu Kristu, futhi ningenzi malungiselelo ngezifiso zenyama. ( Roma 13:14 )
U-Elijah ehlane, uMichael D. O'Brien
HHAYI Kudala, iNkosi yakhuluma izwi elimnene kodwa elinamandla elihlaba umphefumulo wami:
"Bambalwa eSontweni LaseNyakatho Melika abaziyo ukuthi bawele kude kangakanani."
Ngenkathi ngicabanga ngalokhu, ikakhulukazi empilweni yami, ngabona iqiniso kulokhu.
Ngoba wena uthi, Nginothile, ngiphumelele, futhi angidingi lutho; ungazi ukuthi ulusizi, udatshukelwa, umpofu, uyimpumputhe, futhi uhamba-ze. (IsAm. 3: 17)
LAPHO ngithandaza ngaphambi kweSakramente elibusisiwe emasontweni amabili edlule, omunye wozakwethu wayenomfanekiso wewashi emqondweni wakhe. Izandla beziphakathi kwamabili… bese ngokuzumayo, bagxumela emuva imizuzu embalwa, base beya phambili, bese bebuya…
Umkami ngokufanayo unephupho elenzekayo lapho simi khona ensimini, kuyilapho amafu amnyama eqoqana emkhathizwe. Njengoba siqonde kubo, amafu ayahamba.
Akufanele siwathathe kancane amandla wokuncengela, ikakhulukazi lapho sicela isihe sikaNkulunkulu. Futhi akufanele sehluleke ukuqonda izimpawu zezikhathi.
Consider the patience of our Lord as salvation.—2 Petru 3:15
Muva nje wahlangana neqembu labanye abaholi bamaKhatholika nezithunywa zevangeli eNtshonalanga Canada. Ngobusuku bethu bokuqala bokuthandaza ngaphambi kweSakramente Ebusisiwe, umbhangqwana wethu wavele wehlelwa umunyu ojulile wosizi. Amagama afika enhliziyweni yami,
UMoya oNgcwele udabukile ngokungabongi ngamanxeba kaJesu.
Kwathi emva kwesonto noma ngaphezudlwana, omunye engisebenza naye owayengekho nathi wabhala wathi,
Okwezinsuku ezimbalwa ngibe nomqondo wokuthi uMoya oNgcwele ufukamela, njengokufafaza indalo, sengathi sisesikhathini esithile, noma ekuqaleni kwento enkulu, enye indlela eshintsha ngayo indlela iNkosi eyenza ngayo izinto. Njengoba manje sesibona ngengilazi ngokumnyama, kepha kungekudala sizobona ngokucace bha. Cishe isisindo, njengoMoya sinesisindo!
Mhlawumbe lo mqondo wenguquko emkhathizwe yingakho ngiqhubeka nokuzwa enhliziyweni yami amazwi athi, “Ngokushesha! Gcwalisani izibani zenu!” Kuvela endabeni yezintombi eziyishumi eziphume zihlangabeze umkhwenyana (Math 25: 1-13).
UMKHOSI WOKUVAKASHELA
Ngesikhathi ekhulelwe uJesu, uMariya wavakashela umzala wakhe u-Elizabethe. Ngemuva kokubingelela kukaMariya, uMbhalo uphinde ubike ukuthi ingane esesiswini sika-Elizabeth- uJohane uMbhapathizi“wagxuma ngenjabulo”.
John ngizwe UJesu.

NGINE ngazizwa nginesifiso esinamandla sokubuka le movie Troy izinyanga ezimbalwa. Ekugcineni, sayiqasha.
Idolobha laseTroy ebelingenakunqobeka labhujiswa lapho livumela umnikelo kunkulunkulu wamanga ukungena emasangweni awo: "iTrojan Horse." Ebusuku lapho wonke umuntu elele, amasosha, ayecashe ngaphakathi kwehhashi elenziwe ngokhuni, aqhamuka aqala ukuhlaba nokushisa umuzi.
Ngemuva kwalokho ichofoze nami: Lowo muzi yiBandla.
UMNGANI ungibhalele namhlanje, ethi ubhekene nobuze. Eqinisweni, mina nabangane bami abaningi sizwa ukuthula okuthile. Uthe, "Sengathi isikhathi sokulungiselela siyaphela manje. Uyezwa?"
Isithombe size kimi ngesiphepho, nokuthi manje sesiku- iso lesiphepho… "isiphepho sangaphambi kwesikhathi" esiya kuSiphepho Esikhulu esizayo. Eqinisweni, ngizwa sengathi iSonto LikaNkulunkulu LikaZimu (izolo) beliyisizinda samehlo; ngalolo suku lapho ngokungazelelwe isibhakabhaka savuleka savuleka ngenhla kwethu, neLanga LikaMoya lakhanyisa phezu kwethu ngamandla alo onke. Ngalolo suku lapho sasizophuma khona kumfucumfucu wehlazo nesono endiza ngathi, sigijimele ePhepheni Lomusa Nothando lukaNkulunkulu—uma sikhethe ukwenza kanjalo.
Yebo, mngane wami, ngiyazizwa. Umoya wenguquko usuzoshaya futhi, futhi umhlaba awusoze wafana. Kepha akumelwe sikhohlwe: ILanga Lomusa lizofihlwa ngamafu amnyama, kepha lingaze licishwe.
NGO-MAY 30, 1862, iSt. John Bosco wayene- iphupho lesiprofetho lokho kuchaza ngendlela engaqondakali izikhathi zethu — futhi kungenzeka kube ngezethu izikhathi.
… Ephusheni lakhe, uBosco ubona ulwandle olukhulu olugcwele imikhumbi yempi ehlasela umkhumbi omuhle, omele iSonto. Emnsalweni walesi sitsha esihle kunoPapa. Uqala ukuhola umkhumbi wakhe abheke ezinsikeni ezimbili ezivele olwandle oluvulekile.

THE ukubhujiswa, lokho esinye isakhamuzi sendawo esangichaza kimi ngokuthi "ubukhulu bebhayibheli". Ngangivuma nje ngithule ngishaqekile ngemuva kokubona umonakalo weSiphepho uKatrina.
Lesi siphepho senzeke ezinyangeni eziyisikhombisa ezedlule – emasontweni amabili kuphela ngemuva kwekhonsathi yethu eViolet, ngamamayela ayi-15 eningizimu yeNew Orleans. Kubukeka sengathi kwenzeke ngesonto eledlule.
NKULUNKULU amahlamvu, njengesibonakaliso sesivumelwano sakhe noNowa, a U-rainbow esibhakabhakeni.
Kodwa kungani uthingo?
UJesu ungukukhanya kwezwe. Ukukhanya, lapho kuqhekeziwe, kugqama ngemibala eminingi. UNkulunkulu wayesenzile isivumelwano nabantu bakhe, kodwa ngaphambi kokuba uJesu eze, uhlelo lukamoya lwalusaphuliwe—ephukile—Kuze kufike uKristu waqoqela zonke izinto kuye wazenza “munye”. Ungasho ukuthi i- Cross yi-prism, indawo yokuKhanya.
Lapho sibona uthingo, kufanele silubone njenge uphawu lukaKristu, Isivumelwano Esisha: i-arc ethinta izulu, kepha nomhlaba… okufanekisela isimo sikaKristu esinezinto ezimbili, zombili ophezulu futhi womuntu.
In all wisdom and insight, he has made known to us the mystery of his will in accord with his favor that he set forth in him as a plan for the fullness of times, to sum up all things in Christ, in heaven and on earth.-Kwabase-Efesu, 1: 8-10
