LAPHO yizikhathi ohambweni lwamaKristu, njengoMose esifundweni sokuqala sanamuhla, lapho uzohamba ogwadule olungokomoya, lapho yonke into ibonakala yomile, indawo eyincithakalo, futhi umphefumulo ucishe wafa. Yisikhathi sokuvivinywa kokholo nokuthembela komuntu kuNkulunkulu. USt. Teresa waseCalcutta wayekwazi kahle. 

Indawo kaNkulunkulu emphefumulweni wami ayinalutho. Akekho uNkulunkulu kimi. Lapho ubuhlungu bokulangazelela bukhulu kakhulu — ngilangazelela nje futhi ngilangazelela uNkulunkulu… bese kuba sengathi ngibona ukuthi akangifuni — Akekho — uNkulunkulu akangifuni. - Umama uTeresa, Woza Ngokukhanya Kwami, UBrian Kolodiejchuk, MC; ikhasi. 2

USt. Thérèse de Lisieux naye wabhekana nalokhu kuchithwa, ephawula ukuthi wake wamangala ngokuthi “akusekho ukuzibulala phakathi kwabantu abangakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu. ^[1]njengoba kubikwe nguSister Marie weZiqu-zintathu; CatholicHousehold.com; cf. Ubusuku Obumnyama 

Ukube uyazi ukuthi yimiphi imicabango ethusayo engiphethe. Ngikhulekeleni kakhulu ukuze ngingamlaleli uDeveli ofuna ukungincenga ngamanga amaningi kangaka. Ukucabanga kwabantu abathanda izinto ezibonakalayo ezimbi kakhulu okubekwe emqondweni wami. Kamuva, ngokungaphezi intuthuko entsha, isayensi izochaza yonke into ngokwemvelo. Sizoba nesizathu esiphelele sayo yonke into ekhona futhi lokho kuseyinkinga, ngoba kusele izinto eziningi ezizotholwa, njll. njll. -St. Thérèse de Lisieux: Izingxoxo Zakhe Zokugcina, Fr. UJohn Clarke, ocashunwe ku khathinazinline.com

Kuyiqiniso ukuthi kulabo abafuna ubunye noNkulunkulu, kufanele badlule ekuhlanzweni komphefumulo nomoya wabo—“ubusuku obumnyama” lapho kufanele bafunde ukuthanda nokuthembela kuNkulunkulu kuze kube seqophelweni lapho kuba khona ukuzibhubhisa nokuzibhubhisa. konke okunamathiselwe. Kulobu bumsulwa benhliziyo uNkulunkulu, onguBumsulwa uqobo lwakhe, uzihlanganisa ngokuphelele nomphefumulo.

Kodwa lokhu akufanele kudidaniswe nalezo zivivinyo zansuku zonke noma izikhathi zokomisa sonke esibhekana nazo ngezikhathi ezithile. Ngalezo zikhathi, ngisho naphakathi “kobusuku obumnyama”, uNkulunkulu ukhona njalo samanje. Eqinisweni, uvame ukulungela kakhulu ukuzembula futhi aduduze futhi asiqinise kunalokho esikuqaphelayo. Inkinga akukhona ukuthi uNkulunkulu “unyamalele” kodwa ukuthi asimfuni. Zingaki izikhathi lapho ngibeke phansi igeja, ngomqondo ongokomfanekiso, futhi ngiya eMiseni noma Ukuvuma izono noma ngingene emthandazweni ngenhliziyo enzima nesindwayo… futhi ngokumelene nakho konke obekulindelekile, ngiye ngavela ngivuselelwe, ngiqiniswa, futhi ngisho nomlilo! UNkulunkulu ukhona ezisilindile kulokhu Kuhlangana Kwaphezulu, kodwa sivame ukukukhumbula ngesizathu esilula ukuthi asizizuzisi ngakho.

…ngokuba nakuba uzifihlile lezi zinto kwabahlakaniphileyo nabafundileyo ukwambulile kwabancane. (Ivangeli Lanamuhla)

Uma izilingo zakho zibonakala zinzima kakhulu, kungenxa yokuthi uzithwele wedwa?  

Alikho icala elike lafika kuwe kodwa elomuntu. UNkulunkulu uthembekile, akayikuvuma ukuba nilingwe ngokungaphezu kwamandla enu; kodwa kanye nokulingwa uyokwenza nendlela yokuphuma, ukuze nikwazi ukukuthwala. ( 1 Korinte 10:13 )

Esifundweni sokuqala, uMose uthola isihlahla esivuthayo. Yisikhathi Sokuhlangana Kwaphezulu. Kodwa uMose wayengathi, “Ngikhathele kakhulu ukuba ngiye lapho. Kufanele ngeluse umhlambi kababazala. Ngiyindoda ematasa!” Kodwa kunalokho, uthi, “Kumelwe ngidlule ngiyobuka lo mbono omangalisayo, futhi ngibone ukuthi kungani isihlahla singashi.” Kulapho kuphela engena kulokhu kungqubuzana lapho ethola khona ukuthi ‘usemhlabathini ongcwele. Ngalokhu kuhlangana, uMose unikezwa amandla omsebenzi wakhe: ukubhekana noFaro nomoya wezwe. 

Manje, ungahle uthi, “Awu, ukuba ngibone isihlahla esivuthayo, bengizohlangana noNkulunkulu impela nami.” Kodwa Mkristu! Kukhona okungaphezu kwesihlahla esivuthayo esikulindele. UJesu Kristu, uMuntu Wesibili kaZiqu-zintathu Ongcwele, ukulindile usuku ngalunye eMdlweni Ongcwele ukuze akondle futhi akondle ngenyama Yakhe. Ihlathi elivuthayo? Cha, evuthayo Inhliziyo Engcwele! Kukhona ngempela umhlabathi ongcwele phambi kwamaTabernakele omhlaba. 

Bese kuthi-ke uBaba, uMuntu Wokuqala kaZiqu-zintathu Ongcwele, akulinde esikhungweni sokuvuma izono. Lapho, Ufisa ukwethula imithwalo kunembeza wakho, agqokise amadodana namadodakazi Akhe alahlekayo isithunzi sobudlelwane obubuyiselwe, futhi akuqinisele impi engaphambili ngesilingo. 

Okokugcina, uMoya oNgcwele, uMuntu Wesithathu kaZiqu-zintathu Ongcwele, ukulindile ekujuleni nasebusweni benhliziyo yakho. Ukufisa kangakanani ukukududuza, ukufundisa, kanye nokunenza nibe musha isakramente lamanje. Ukulangazelela Kanjani ukwembula emntwaneni uBuhlakaniphi bukaNkulunkulu obubuyisela, obudala, futhi obuvuselela umphefumulo othukuthelayo. Kodwa abaningi bayaphuthelwa le Mihlangano Yaphezulu ngoba abakhuleki. Noma lapho bethandaza, abakwenzi khuleka ngenhliziyo kodwa ngamazwi angenalutho, aphazamisekile. 

Ngalezi zindlela, nokunye okuningi—okufana nemvelo, uthando lomunye, ihubo elimnandi, noma umsindo wokuthula—uNkulunkulu ukulindile, ulindele Ukuhlangana Kwaphezulu. Kodwa njengoMose, kufanele sithi:

Ngilapha. (Ukufunda kokuqala)

Hhayi ukuthi “Ngilapha” ngamazwi angenalutho, kodwa “Nangu mina” ngenhliziyo, ngesikhathi sakho, ngobukhona bakho, ngomzamo wakho… ngokukwethemba kwakho. Ngokuqinisekile, akuzona ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho sithandaza, samukela uMthendeleko, noma ukuxolelwa, esiyothola induduzo. Kodwa njengoba uSt. Thérèse avuma, induduzo ayidingeki ngaso sonke isikhathi. 

Nakuba uJesu engangiduduzi, unginikeza ukuthula okukhulu kangangokuthi kungisiza kakhulu! -Ukuxhumana Okujwayelekile, Vol I, Fr. UJohn Clarke; cf. I-Magnificat, Septhemba 2014, likh. 34

Yebo, iNkosi ifuna ukuba uphile ngokuthula kwayo, yona njalo uhlinzeka labo abamfunayo futhi bahlale bethembekile Kuye. Uma ungenakho ukuthula, umbuzo awukho ukuthi “Uphi uNkulunkulu?”, kodwa “Ngikuphi mina?”

Ukuthula ngikushiya kinina; ukuthula kwami ​​nginipha khona; angininiki njengokupha kwezwe. Izinhliziyo zenu mazingakhathazeki, zingesabi. ( Johane 14:27 )

Uthethelela zonke izono zakho, welapha zonke izifo zakho. Uhlenga ukuphila kwakho ekubhujisweni, uyakuthwesa umqhele womusa nesihawu. (Ihubo Lanamuhla)
