You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. — Mathewu 5:14

UbuKristu yilokhu: ukukhombisa ubuso bothando kumakhelwane wethu. Futhi kufanele siqale ngemindeni yethu–ngalabo okulula kakhulu ukubabonisa ubuso "obunye".

Lolu thando aluyona imizwa yangempela. Inesikhumba. Inamathambo. Inobukhona. Kuyabonakala... Iyabekezela, imnene, ayinamhawu, ayizikhukhumezi, ayizikhukhumezi noma iluhlaza. Alizifuneli izinzuzo zalo siqu, futhi alisheshi ukucasuka. Alucabangi okubi, aluthokozi ngobubi. Lubekezelela izinto zonke, lukholelwa yizinto zonke, luthemba izinto zonke, futhi lukhuthazelela zonke izinto. (1 Kor. 13: 4-7)

Ngingaba ubuso bukaKristu komunye na? UJesu uthi,

Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit. — Johane 15:5

Ngomthandazo kanye nokuphenduka, sizothola amandla okuthanda. Singaqala ngokugeza izitsha namhlanje ebusuku, ngokumamatheka.

LOKHU ukoma akukhona ukulahlwa nguNkulunkulu, kodwa kuwukuhlola okuncane ukubona ukuthi usamethemba yini—lapho ungaphelele.

Akulona iLanga elihambayo, kodwa nguMhlaba. Kanjalo futhi, sidlula ezikhathini zonyaka lapho siphucwa induduzo futhi siphonswa ebumnyameni bokuvivinywa kwasebusika.
