Eminyakeni emibili eyedlule, ngahlangana nombhali uMichael Brown (iningi lenu elaziyo ukuthi yilo eliqhuba iwebhusayithi yamaKhatholika I-SpiritDaily.) Imindeni yethu yayidla ndawonye, futhi ngemva kwalokho, mina noMichael saxoxa ngezinto eziningi. Lapho sesizophuma, waphuma ekamelweni wathatha izincwadi ezimbalwa. Omunye wabo ubenesihloko esithi, Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini. Ukuhlanganiswa kwezingxoxo uMichael azenza nemfihlakalo yaseVenezuela engasekho, uMaria Esperanza. Uchazwe njengenguqulo yabesifazane kaPadre Pio empeleni ahlangana naye kaningana empilweni yakhe. Uvele kuye ngosuku afa ngalo (njengoba kwesinye isikhathi ayevela emiphefumulweni eminingi), wathi, "Isikhathi sakho manje." Isimanga esimangazayo sasizungeze impilo yakhe, kufaka phakathi ilungelo lokuthola izibuko kuJesu, kanye neNdlovukazi Ebusisiwe uMariya nabanye abangcwele. Futhi hhayi yena kuphela; abaningi abafika esigodini sakubo iBetania nabo bayibona iNcasakazi, ezibukweni ezithole ukuvunywa okuqinile ngumbhishobhi wendawo.
On Septhemba 11th ngesonto eledlule, ngazizwa ngiphoqelekile ukuba ngithathe le ncwadi ngiyifunde lapho ngindiza ngiye eTexas. Kwangimangaza lokho engangikufunda. Ngamazwi avele enhliziyweni yami eminyakeni emithathu edlule angama-echo ngqo emiyalezo uMama wethu noJesu abayinika uMaria ngomhlaba. Lokhu kungithinte ngokujule kakhulu, ngoba kwesinye isikhathi ngilwa kanzima ngomsebenzi engiwunikiwe: kuyisiqinisekiso esivela kumuntu owayephila impilo engcwele futhi ephawuleka futhi onamazwi, yize engewona ubufakazi benhlamvu, athwala isisindo esidlula kude noma yini engiyoke ngiyisho. Angikusho lokhu ukuze ngisizakale, kodwa kusho wena. Ngoba umBhalo usiyala ukuthi singadeleli iziphrofetho, kepha siziqonde. Ngokunikezwa kwezikhathi ezenzeka ngokumangazayo manje, ngicabanga ukuthi kubalulekile ukuthi iningi lenu elizwa izwi lesiprofetho enhliziyweni yenu liphinde liqinisekiswe emoyeni wenu ngalokhu ebenilokhu nikuzwa.
Kuyaxaka, ngoba bengazi okuncane ngalo wesifazane kuze kube manje, yize sengimcaphule kaningi. Kepha kunokuthile emphefumulweni wami okungitshela ukuthi ngenkathi uMoya uthandaza "esperanza," ukuthi empeleni bekungaba ngu "Esperanza" - ukunxusa kokuncengela komuntu okungenzeka ngelinye ilanga abizwe ISt. Maria. Lowo ogama lakhe lisho ngethemba.
IMIYALEZO
(Ngezansi, njengoba ngiphenya amazwi kaMaria, ngiphinde ngahlobanisa imishwana ethile nezihloko emibhalweni yami ukuze uzikhombe kalula ngokuchofoza kuzo.)
UMaria uyaqinisekisa ukuthi siphila esikhathini somusa, “isikhathi esikhethekile” abuye asibize ngeihora lesinqumo. ” NgoMaria, uMama Obusisiwe usibizela endaweni “yokuthandaza nokuzindla,” lokhu engikubize lapha “iBastion. ” Kungamalungiselelo we ukushumayela okusha zomhlaba (Mat 24:14):
iNtombi ifikile… ukuhlanganisa iqembu elincane lemiphefumulo elibizelwe ukuthunywa okuhle kwesikhathi esizayo, esivele siqala. Lokho kungukushunyayelwa komhlaba futhi. -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, UMichael H. Brown, k. 107
Ngibhalile ngesikhathi lapho ngezwa uMoya oNgcwele ebiza "ukukhishwa kwesilo senyoka”Lapho amandla kaSathane ezophulwa ezimpilweni eziningi.
Isiphepho sasezulwini sizofika sizosiza ababuthakathaka, ibutho eliholwa nguSt. Michael the Archangel, elizokuvikela ngoba uzomemezela isikhathi esinqumayo, futhi uzobe evulekile ukulalela izigubhu, imitshingo nezinsimbi, akwazi ukuma ngokushesha ukulwa nomkhuleko weMagnificat. -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, Michael H. Brown, ikhasi 53
Yeka isiqinisekiso esihle! Lapho Isivivinyo Seminyaka Eyisikhombisa uchungechunge kwaqedwa, Ngizwe iNkosi yethu ithi sizobe sicula i- Magnificat Owesifazane—Ingoma yokudumisa neyokulwa. Futhi-ke, uMaria usho lokho iBandla ebelikusho emakhulwini eminyaka: lokho UMariya uyisiphephelo sethu:
Kukhona okuzayo, ihora lezinto ezesabekayo lapho ubuntu obudidekile bungeke buthole isiphephelo enhliziyweni yomuntu esemhlabeni. Isiphephelo kuphela uMary. -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, UMichael H. Brown, k. 53
Sengivele ngicaphune emibhalweni yami lapho uMaria ebhekisa khona ku ukukhanyisa unembeza okuzoba yisipho esikhulu esivela ezulwini somhlaba — uSuku Lomusa lapho imiphefumulo eminingi izonikezwa umusa wokuphenduka. Yize uMaria enqabile ukuphendula ukuthi uyazi yini noma cha ukuthi Umphik'ukristu uyaphila emhlabeni (ngokuhlakanipha, mhlawumbe), iNcasakazi yathi siphila "izikhathi ezibhubhisayo":
Inhloso kaBaba wethu ukusindisa zonke izingane zaKhe ekuhlekelweni usulu nasekuhlekisweni ngabaFarisi balezi zikhathi ezibucayi. -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, UMichael H. Brown, k. 43
Ngaphambi kweSakramente elibusisiwe, kulokho okwakungumbono wangaphakathi eminyakeni embalwa eyedlule, ngezwa iNkosi isithi kuza "imiphakathi efanayo”Engaqina ngokuKhanya. UMaria ukhuluma nangemiphakathi yamaKrestu:
Ngicabanga ukuthi esikhathini esincane kakhulu sizohlala emiphakathini yezenhlalo, imiphakathi yezenkolo. -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, UMichael H. Brown, k. 42
Futhi uMaria ukhuluma kaningi ngalokho okubizwa ngokuthiinkathi yokuthula”Lapho umhlaba neBandla kuzovuselelwa khona enkathini ekhazimulayo. Kuzokwandulelwa “ukufika” kweNkosi yethu. Lapha futhi, uMaria akakhulumi ngokuza kokugcina kukaJesu enkazimulweni, kodwa ngokuza okuphakathi kukaKristu, mhlawumbe ngesimo esibonakalayo:
Uyeza — hhayi ukuphela komhlaba, kodwa ukuphela kobuhlungu balelikhulu leminyaka. Leli khulu leminyaka liyahlanza, futhi emva kwalokho kuzokuza ukuthula nothando… Imvelo izoba entsha futhi entsha, futhi sizokwazi ukuzizwa sijabule emhlabeni wethu nasendaweni esihlala kuyo, ngaphandle kwezimpi, ngaphandle kwalo muzwa wokungezwani lapho sonke siyaphila… -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, UMichael H. Brown, k. 73, 69
Nalapha futhi, uMaria ubhekisa kulokhu kunyakaza kukaMoya oNgcwele, okuphetha ngeNkathi Yokuthula, njengo ukusa okusha:
Ngizama ukuzilungiselela ukuze umusa kaMoya oNgcwele uvule umkhathizwe wokusa okusha kukaJesu. -Ibhuloho eliya ezulwini: Izingxoxo noMaria Esperanza waseBetania, UMichael H. Brown, k. 71
Ngempela, lapho ngiphenya inhliziyo yami ukuthola isihloko sencwadi engiyibhalayo, amagama eza ngokushesha: “Ithemba liyasa. " Ngithole wona kanye lawo mazwi enhliziyweni yami ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule kulokho okwakubonakala kungu umyalezo ovela kuMama wethu.

UMKHONDO WOKUZALWA
UFr. UKyle Dave waseLouisiana uvame ukuthi, “Izinto zizoba zimbi kakhulu ngaphambi kokuba zibe ngcono.” Lesi akusona isizathu sokwethuka kumKrestu, kodwa sokwazisa okukhulu ukuthi uSuku "alukubambi njengesela ebusuku." Ngempela, uMaria uphinde aqinisekise emibhalweni yakhe umqondo wempi eseduze (engavinjelwa ngokuphenduka nangomkhuleko), uqhekeko olungaba khona, izinsizi, isifo, mhlawumbe esifingqiwe ngamagama athi "inhlekelele enkulu." Kepha lezi zinto zihlala zibekwe kumongo wothando lukaNkulunkulu ukuze kuvuselelwe leli zwe ngokuhlanzwa futhi kuvule indlela yokubusa kukaKristu kokuthula. Cabanga, bafowethu nodadewethu, ngendodana yolahleko. Kwaba yinhlekelele yobumpofu nendlala lapho ekugcineni abuyela kuyise. Lesi sikhathi somusa sivunyelwe izulu ukuthi sibuyele kuYe ngaphandle kokusijezisa kakhulu. Kungakho athulule uMoya Oyingcwele ngokukhululeka ngokuvuselelwa kweCharismatic. Kungakho asivusele opapa abathobekile, abangcwele nabahlakaniphile ngezikhathi zethu. Yingakho Usithumele Umama Wakhe. Ngoba ngikholwa ukuthi i- Usuku lweNkosi bekusondele, kepha izinga lokujeziswa belilokhu lixhomeke ekuphendukeni kwethu. Futhi-ke, uNkulunkulu uzosiyala ngoba singamadodana namadodakazi akhe, futhi uNkulunkulu uyala labo abathandayo.
O, ujabulisa uNkulunkulu umphefumulo olandela ngokwethembeka ugqozi lomusa waKhe! Nganikela emhlabeni uMsindisi; wena, kufanele ukhulume nomhlaba ngomusa waKhe omkhulu futhi ulungiselele umhlaba ukuBuya kwesiBili kwaYe ozofika, hhayi njengoMsindisi onesihe, kodwa njengoMahluleli olungile. O, lubi kanjani lolo suku! Kunqunywe usuku lobulungiswa, usuku lolaka lwaphezulu. Izingelosi ziyathuthumela phambi kwalo. Khuluma nemiphefumulo ngalomusa omkhulu ngenkathi kuseseyisikhathi sokunikeza isihe. Uma uthula manje, uzobe uphendula inani elikhulu lemiphefumulo ngalolo suku olubi. Ungesabi lutho. Thembeka kuze kube sekupheleni. Ngiyazwelana nawe. —UMary ekhuluma noSt. Faustina, Idayari: Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami,n. 635
Isizathu esenza ukuthi ngazise uMaria Esperanza kubafundi bami ngale ndlela (noma mhlawumbe ungiletha kuwe!) Ukuthi ubuye washo ezinye izinto ezikhombisa izikhathi esiphila kuzo manje. Encwadini yami elandelayo, ngiyahamba ukuchaza lokhu. Isikhathi esisifakile manje sibucayi kakhulu futhi sidinga ukunakwa kwethu ngokuphelele kuMary. Isithombe ebenginaso enhliziyweni yami izolo bekuseqenjini lebhola. UJesu ungumqeqeshi omkhulu, kanti uMary uyikota yethu yangemuva. Uthola “umdlalo” olandelayo kuKristu, bese eza engxenyeni ezosidlulisela kithina. Icala alijiki libhekane nomqeqeshi — cha, balinda ikota emuva bese belalela ngokucophelela ukuthi yini yena kufanele athi — lokho uMqeqeshi amtshele khona. Kodwa uKristu ungumqeqeshi wethu “oyiNhloko”. UnguNkulunkulu. UnguMsindisi wethu, futhi uMariya uyithuluzi Lakhe elikhethiwe ukusiqondisa nokusihola. Yeka ukuthi kuhle kanjani ukuthi naye unguMama wethu!
Yingakho kumele sithandaze iRosari. Kungani kufanele sihlale phambi kweSakramente elibusisiwe. Yingakho kufanele sihlangane "ekamelweni eliphezulu", eBastion, esixukwini saphezulu. Umama wethu usilungiselela njengesithende, inzalo ezochoboza ikhanda likaSathane. Haleluya, alleluya, hlupha! Hlanganisa ilangabi isipho uKristu asinikeze sona ngokubhabhadiswa kwakho nokuqinisekiswa kwakho! Thandaza, thandaza, thandaza!
Izimpilo zenu kumele zifane nezami: zithule futhi zifihliwe, ebunyeni obungapheli noNkulunkulu, zincengela isintu futhi zilungiselela umhlaba ukubuya kukaNkulunkulu kwesibili. —UMary ekhuluma noSt Faustina, Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul, n. 625
Lalelani ngokucophelela, bafowethu nodadewethu, ngoba ushintsho seluzofika ngokushesha okukhulu, futhi kumele ngabe nilalele kahle iZulu. Lalela njengengane. Awunalutho, uzinikele, uthembile, ulindile, unokuthula. Ngoba uzosetshenziswa njengethuluzi likaNkulunkulu, ukuze ube khona kukaKristu kulo mhlaba ngehora lawo elikhulu lokushunyayelwa kwevangeli (Math 24:14). Futhi asisodwa. Ngizizwa ngijule enhliziyweni yami ukuthi uNkulunkulu usithumela imiphefumulo efana noSt Pio noMaria Esperanza nabaningi, abangcwele abaningi ukusithandazela, ukusisiza nokusikhulumela ngalesi sikhathi. Asisodwa. Simzimba munye. Umzimba onqobayo.
Ithemba liyakhanya.
Amanzi avukile neziphepho ezinzima ziphezu kwethu, kepha asesabi ukuminza, ngoba simi siqinile edwaleni. Ulwandle maluthukuthele, alikwazi ukuphula idwala. Vumela amagagasi aphakame, awakwazi ukusika isikebhe sikaJesu. Yini okufanele siyesabe? Ukufa? Impilo kimi isho uKristu, nokufa kuyinzuzo. Ukudingiswa? Umhlaba nokugcwala kwawo kungokukaJehova. Ukuphucwa izimpahla zethu? Asilethanga lutho kulo mhlaba, futhi asisoze sathatha lutho kuwo… Ngalokho ngigxila esimweni samanje, futhi ngiyaninxusa, bahlobo bami, ukuba nibe nokuzethemba.—USt. UJohn Chrysostom, Liturgy of the Hours, Umq. IV, k. 1377
I-PS Njengohlobo "lokucwayiza" kulo mbhalo…. ngemuva kokuthi kubhaliwe, owesifazane weza kimi wanginikeza ikhadi lakhe lebhizinisi. Igama lenkampani yakhe ngu “Esperanza-Hope Entertainment.” Bese kuthi, emasontweni ambalwa kamuva, umngani wakwa-Esperanza angithumele umucu wezinwele zikaMaria zegolide — isipho esihle ..
