I. VUMELA UJESU ANgene!

Isihluthulelo samazwi kaJohn Paul II athi "ungesabi" silele engxenyeni yesibili yesimemo sakhe: “Vulani iminyango kuKristu!”

Umphostoli uJohane wabhala:

UNkulunkulu uluthando, nalowo ohlala othandweni uhlala kuNkulunkulu noNkulunkulu kuye… Akukho ukwesaba othandweni, kepha uthando olupheleleyo luxosha ukwesaba… (1 Johane 4:18)

uNkulunkulu is uthando oluxosha konke ukwesaba. Lapho ngivula inhliziyo yami kuYe ngokholo olunjengolomntwana futhi "ngihlala othandweni", ungena ngokwengeziwe, exosha ubumnyama bokwesaba futhi anginike ukuzethemba okungcwele, isibindi, nokuthula. ^[1]isib. Izenzo 4: 29-31

Ukuthula ngikushiya kuwe; ukuthula kwami ​​ngikunikeza. Hhayi njengoba umhlaba unikeza ngikunikeza wena. Inhliziyo yenu mayingakhathazeki noma yesabe. (Johane 14:27)

Ukuzethemba kuvela ngokungazi mayelana Yena njengoba ebengakwenza kusuka encwadini, kodwa ukwazi kwe Yena njengowasebudlelwaneni. Inkinga ukuthi abaningi bethu abanalo ngempela wavula izinhliziyo zethu kuNkulunkulu.

Kwesinye isikhathi ngisho namaKhatholika alahlekelwe noma angakaze abe nethuba lokuzwa uKristu uqobo: hhayi uKristu 'njengepharadayim' nje noma 'inani', kepha njengeNkosi ephilayo, 'indlela, neqiniso, nokuphila'. —UPOPE JOHN PAUL II, I-L'Osservatore Romano (Uhlelo lwesiNgisi lwe-Vatican Newspaper), Mashi 24, 1993, likhasi 3

Noma simgcina ebangeni elide ngezizathu eziningi — ngokwesaba ukuthi uyangilahla, noma ngeke angondle, noma ikakhulukazi, ukuthi uzofuna okungaphezulu kakhulu kimi. Kepha uJesu uthi ngaphandle kokuthi sithembeke njengabantwana abancane, ngeke sibe nombuso kaNkulunkulu, ^[2]isib. Mat 19:14 asikwazi ukwazi lolo Thando, oluxosha ukwesaba…

… Ngoba utholwa yilabo abangamhloli, futhi uziveza kulabo abangamkholwa. (Ukuhlakanipha kukaSolomoni 1: 2)

Ngakho-ke, ukhiye wokuqala nesisekelo wokungasabi ukuvumela uThando angene! Futhi lo Uthando ungumuntu.

Masingazivali izinhliziyo zethu, masingalahli ukuzethemba, singalokothi siyeke: azikho izimo uNkulunkulu angenakuzishintsha… —UPAPA UFRANCIS, u-Easter Vigil Homily, n. 1, Mashi 30, 2013; www.v Vatican.va

 

II. UMTHANDAZO UVULA UMNYANGO

Ngakho-ke, “ukuvula iminyango kuKristu” kusho ukungena ebudlelwaneni bangempela obuphilayo Naye. Ukuza eMiseni ngeSonto akusona isiphetho ngayinye se, sengathi luhlobo oluthile lwethikithi lokuya ezulwini, kunalokho, kuyisiqalo. Ukuze sidonse uthando ezinhliziyweni zethu, kumele sisondele kuye ngobuqotho “Umoya neqiniso.” ^[3]isib. Johane 4:23

Sondelani kuNkulunkulu, naye uyosondela kini. (Jakobe 4: 8)

Lokhu kusondela kuNkulunkulu “ngomoya” kubaluleke kakhulu umkhuleko. Nomkhuleko uyi ubuhlobo.

...umkhuleko ubuhlobo obuphilayo bezingane zikaNkulunkulu noBaba wazo olunge ngokwedlulele, neNdodana yakhe uJesu Kristu kanye noMoya oNgcwele… Umkhuleko ukuhlangana kokoma kukaNkulunkulu nezethu. UNkulunkulu womele ukuthi simmelele.  -Ikhathekizimu leSonto LamaKatolika, Izinombolo 2565, 2560

Umkhuleko, kusho uSt. Theresa wase-Avila, "ukuhlangana phakathi kwabangane ababili. Kusho ukuthatha isikhathi kaningi ukuba sodwa naLowo osithandayo. ” Kusemthandazweni lapho sihlangana khona noJesu, hhayi njengonkulunkulu okude, kepha njengoMuntu ophilayo nothando.

Vumela uJesu ovukile angene empilweni yakho, uMemukele njengomngani, ngokuzethemba: Ungukuphila… —UPOP FRANCIS, Easter Vigil Homily, Mashi 30, 2013; www.v Vatican.va

Lapho simane sikhuluma noNkulunkulu ngokusuka enhliziyweni—ukuthi ngumkhuleko. Futhi umkhuleko yiwo odonsa ukumuncwa kukaMoya oNgcwele kuKristu, onguMvini, ungene ezinhliziyweni zethu. Idonsela oThando ekhipha konke ukwesaba.

Umkhuleko uhambela umusa esiwudingayo… -CCC, n.2010

Umusa womusa Wami udonswa ngesitsha esisodwa kuphela, futhi lokho-ukwethembana. Lapho umphefumulo uthembela ngokwengeziwe, yilapho ezothola khona ngokwengeziwe. Imiphefumulo ethembela ngokungenamkhawulo iyinduduzo enkulu Kimi, ngoba ngithululela yonke ingcebo yomusa Wami kuyo. Ngiyajabula ukuthi bacela okuningi, ngoba kuyisifiso Sami ukunikela kakhulu, kakhulu. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngibuhlungu lapho imiphefumulo icela okuncane, lapho inciphisa izinhliziyo zayo. —Idayari kaSt. Maria Faustina Kowalska, Isihe SikaNkulunkulu Somphefumlo Wami, hhayi. 1578

Uyabona-ke, Nkulunkulu Ufuna ukuze uvule inhliziyo yakho kuYe. Futhi lokhu kusho ukuzinikela kwakho. Uthando ukushintshana, ukushintshana kwesikhathi, kwamagama nokwethembana. Uthando lusho ukuba sesichengeni — nobabili futhi UNkulunkulu eba sengozini komunye nomunye (futhi yini engavikeleka ngaphezu kokulenga nqunu esiphambanweni kulowo ongase angaphinde akuthande?) inhliziyo ”ixosha ukwesaba. Njengoba ubeka isikhathi sesidlo sakusihlwa, kufanele ubekele eceleni isikhathi somkhuleko, ngoba lokho kudla komoya okuyikho kuphela okunomsoco, okuphilisayo, nokukhulula umphefumulo ekwesabeni.

 

III. SIYEKE NGEMUVA

Kunesizathu esihle, nokho, esenza abanye abantu besabe. Kungenxa yokuthi bona ngamabomu kuNkulunkulu. ^[4]qhathanisa Isono Sangamabomu Bakhetha ukuhlubuka. Kungakho uSt. John eqhubeka ethi:

… Ukwesaba kuhlobene nokujeziswa, ngakho-ke lowo owesabayo akakapheleli othandweni. (1 Johane 4:18)

Kepha ungathi, "Manje-ke, ngicabanga ukuthi ngidalelwe ukwesaba ngoba ngihlala ngikhubeka."

Lokhu engikhuluma ngakho lapha akuzona lezo zono zemvelo ezivela ebuthakathakeni nobuthakathaka bomuntu, ngokungapheleli nokunye okunjalo. Lokhu akukuhlukanisi noNkulunkulu:

Isono esiphikayo asephuli isivumelwano noNkulunkulu. Ngomusa kaNkulunkulu kuyakhokhiseka ngokomuntu. Isono esiphikisayo asincishi isoni umusa wokungcwelisa, ubungane noNkulunkulu, isisa senhliziyo, futhi ngenxa yalokho injabulo yaphakade. — CCC, n1863

Engikhuluma ngakho lapha ukuthi ukwazi ukuthi okuthile kuyisono esibi, kepha nokho usenza ngamabomu. Umuntu onjalo ngokwemvelo umema ubumnyama ezinhliziyweni zabo kunoThando. ^[5]isib. Johane 3:19 Umuntu onjalo umema ngamabomu ukwesaba ezinhliziyweni zabo ngoba “Ukwesaba kuhlobene nokujeziswa.” Unembeza wabo uphazamisekile, izinkanuko zabo ziyavuswa, futhi bakhathala kalula njengoba bekhubeka ebumnyameni. Ngakho-ke, ekuvuleleni uJesu inhliziyo yakhe ngomthandazo, kumele kuqala qala lowo mthandazo “ngeqiniso elisikhululayo.” Futhi iqiniso lokuqala yilokho engiyikho-nokuthi angiyena ubani.

… Ukuthobeka kuyisisekelo somkhuleko… Ukucela intethelelo kuyisidingo sombili we-Eucharistic Liturgy nomthandazo womuntu siqu. -Catechism weSonto LamaKatolika,n. 2559, 2631

Yebo, uma ufisa ukuhlala enkululekweni yamadodana namadodakazi kaNkulunkulu, kufanele uthathe isinqumo sokufulathela sonke isono nokunamathiselwe okungenampilo:

Ungazethembi kangako ukuthi unezela isono phezu kwesono. Ungasho ukuthi, Umusa wakhe mkhulu; izono zami eziningi uyothethelela. (USiraki 5: 5-6)

Kepha uma ngobuqotho sondela kuYe “ngeqiniso”, uNkulunkulu unjalo elinde ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakhe ukukuxolela:

O mphefumulo ocwile ebumnyameni, ungalahli ithemba. Konke akukalahlekile. Woza uthembe uNkulunkulu wakho, oluthando nomusa… Makungabikho noyedwa umphefumulo owesabayo ukusondela kimi, noma izono zawo zibomvu tebhu… Angikwazi ukujezisa ngisho nesoni esikhulu kunazo zonke uma sinxusa ububele baMi, kepha Ngokuphambene nalokho, ngiyamthethelela ngesihe Sami esingaqondakali futhi esingaqondakali. —UJesu kuya eSt Faustina, Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami, IDayari, n. 1486, 699, 1146

Uma sizivuma izono zethu, uthembekile futhi ulungile futhi uzothethelela izono zethu asihlanze kukho konke okubi. (1 Johane 1: 9)

Ukuvuma izono kuyindawo eqokwe nguKrestu uqobo ukuthi umuntu akhululwe emandleni esono.^[6]isib. Johane 20:23; Jakobe 5:16 Yindawo lapho umuntu esondela khona kuNkulunkulu “ngeqiniso.” Isidimoni sathi kimi “Ukuvuma izono okulodwa kunamandla amakhulu kunokukhipha imimoya ngokukhipha ikhulu.” Ayikho enye indlela enamandla yokukhululwa emoyeni wokwesaba ukwedlula iSakramente Lokubuyisana.^[7]qhathanisa Ukwenza Ukuvuma Okuhle

...asikho isono angeke asithethelele uma nje sizivulela kuye... Uma kuze kube manje umgcine kude, hamba uye phambili. Uzokwamukela ngezandla ezimhlophe. —UPOP FRANCIS, Easter Vigil Homily, Mashi 30, 2013; www.v Vatican.va

 

IV. UKULAHLWA

Abaningi bethu bangakwenza okungenhla, noma kunjalo, sisathambekele ekuphazanyisweni kokuthula, ukuphepha kwethu kwangaphakathi kwantengantenga. Kungani? Ngoba asincikile ngokuphelele phezu kukaYise. Asikuthembi lokho, noma ngabe kwenzekani, kunjalo Akhe intando eyekelelayo — nentando yaKhe "Ukudla kwami." ^[8]isib. Johane 3:34 Siyajabula futhi sinokuthula lapho konke kuhamba kahle… kepha siyathukuthela futhi siyaphazamiseka lapho sihlangabezana nezingqinamba, ukuphikisana, nokudumazeka. Kungenxa yokuthi asilahliwe ngokuphelele kuYena, asikaxhomeki kuphela emiklamweni yaKhe, ngendlela izinyoni zezulu noma izidalwa zehlathi (Math 6:26).

Kuliqiniso, asikwazi ukuzibamba kodwa sizwe ukulunywa yila “meva”, ^[9]qhathanisa Amukele umqhele kwalokhu kuhlupheka okungalindelekile nokungafuneki — futhi lokho kungumuntu. Kepha-ke kufanele silingise uJesu ebuntwini Bakhe lapho ezilahla ngokuphelele ku-Abba: ^[10]qhathanisa UMtakuli

… Susa le ndebe kimi; namanje, hhayi intando yami kodwa eyakho yenziwe. (Luka 22:42)

Phawula ukuthi ngemuva kokuthi uJesu enze lomkhuleko eGetsemane, ingelosi yathunyelwa ukuyomduduza. Kwathi lapho ukwesaba kwabantu sekuhwamuka, uJesu wasukuma wazinikela kubashushisi Bakhe ababeze ukuMbopha. UBaba uzothumela "ingelosi" efanayo yamandla nesibindi kulabo abazishiya ngokuphelele kuye.

Ukwamukela intando kaNkulunkulu, noma ngabe sithanda noma cha, kufana nengane encane. Umphefumulo onjalo ohamba kulolo hlobo lokushiywa awusasabi, kepha ubona konke njengokuvela kuNkulunkulu, ngakho-ke kuhle — noma, noma kunalokho, ikakhulukazi, lapho kuyisiphambano. UDavid wabhala:

Izwi lakho liyisibani ezinyaweni zami nokukhanya endleleni yami. (IHubo 119: 105)

Ukulandela “ukukhanya” kwentando kaNkulunkulu kususa ubumnyama bokwesaba:

INkosi ingukukhanya kwami ​​nensindiso yami; ngizakwesaba bani? INkosi iyinqaba yokuphila kwami; ngizakwesaba bani? (IHubo 27: 1)

Ngempela, uJesu wathembisa ukuthi sizokuthola “ukuphumula” kuye…

Wozani kimi, nina nonke enikhatheleyo nenisindwayo, ngizoniphumuza.

…kodwa kanjani?

Bekani ijoka lami phezu kwenu futhi nifunde kimi, ngoba ngimnene futhi ngithobekile ngenhliziyo; khona-ke nizotholela ukuphumula. (Math 11: 28)

Lapho sithatha ijoka lentando yaKhe phezu kwethu, kulapho sithola khona ukuphumula ekukhathazekeni nasekwesabeni okufuna ukusisinda.

Ngakho-ke ungesabi uma uNkulunkulu ebonakala ekude ekuhluphekeni kwakho, njengoba ekukhohliwe. Akasoze akukhohlwa. Leso yisithembiso Sakhe (bona u-Isaya 49: 15-16 kanye noMat 28:20). Kunalokho, kwesinye isikhathi uzifihla yena kanye nezinhloso zaKhe ekufihleni okubuhlungu kwentando Yakhe yokuyekelela ukuze asembulele ukuthi cha noma cha empeleni Thembela kuye futhi uzothanda linda isikhathi Sakhe nokuphatha Kwakhe. Maqondana nokondla izinkulungwane eziyisihlanu, uJesu uyabuza:

“Singakuthengaphi ukudla okwanele ukuthi badle?” Ukusho lokhu ukuvivinya [uFiliphu], ngoba yena ngokwakhe wayekwazi azokwenza. (bheka uJohane 6: 1-15)

Ngakho-ke, lapho yonke into ibonakala ngathi iyawa eduze kwakho, thandaza:

O Jesu, ngizinikela kuwe, unakekele konke! (kusuka ku-powerful INovena Yokulahlwa)

… Bese uzinikela ezimeni zakho ngokubuyela emsebenzini okwamanje. Umqondisi wami wezomoya uvame ukuthi "Intukuthelo iyadabukisa." Lapho sehluleka ukulawula, kulapho sizizwa sidabukile, okukhombisa ukuthukuthela, okunika ukwesaba indawo yokuhlala.

Uma ukumlandela kubonakala kunzima, ungesabi, methembele, qiniseka ukuthi useduze nawe, unawe futhi uzokunikeza ukuthula okufunayo namandla okuphila ngendlela abengathanda ngayo. . —UPOP FRANCIS, Easter Vigil Homily, Mashi 30, 2013; www.v Vatican.va

 

V. UKUHLEKA!

Okokugcina, uvalo lunganqotshwa ngu injabulo! Injabulo yeqiniso iyisithelo sikaMoya. Lapho siphila ngamaphoyinti I-IV ngaphezulu, lapho-ke injabulo iyozalwa ngokwemvelo njengesithelo sikaMoya oNgcwele. Awukwazi ukuthandana noJesu futhi ungajabuli! ^[11]isib. Izenzo 4:20

Yize "ukucabanga okuhle" kunganele ukuxosha ukwesaba, yisimo esifanele sengane kaNkulunkulu, esidala inhlabathi enhle yezimbewu isibindi esingcwele ukuhluma.

Thokozani eNkosini njalonjalo. Ngizophinda futhi ngithi: thokozani! umusa wakho kufanele waziwe kubo bonke. INkosi iseduze. Ungabi nokukhathazeka nhlobo, kodwa kukho konke, ngomthandazo nangokunxusa, ngokubonga, yenza izicelo zakho zaziwe nguNkulunkulu. Ukuthula kukaNkulunkulu okudlula ukuqonda konke kuyakulondoloza izinhliziyo nezingqondo zenu kuKristu Jesu. (Fil 4: 7)

Ukubonga “kuzo zonke izimo” ^[12]I-1 Thess 5: 18 kusenza sikwazi ukuvula izinhliziyo zethu zibanzi kuNkulunkulu, ukugwema izingibe zokubaba futhi samukele intando kaBaba. Futhi lokhu akunawo nje kuphela imiphumela yokomoya kepha yomzimba.

Ocwaningweni olusha olumangazayo ngobuchopho bomuntu, uDkt. Caroline Leaf uchaza ukuthi ubuchopho bethu “abulungiswanga” kanjani njengoba kwakucatshangwa. Kunalokho, imicabango yethu iyakwazi ukusishintsha ngokomzimba.

Njengoba ucabanga, ukhetha, futhi njengoba ukhetha, ubangela ukuthi ukubonakaliswa kofuzo kwenzeke ebuchosheni bakho. Lokhu kusho ukuthi wenza amaprotheni, futhi lawa maprotheni akha imicabango yakho. Imicabango iyizinto zangempela, ezibonakalayo ezithatha indawo yengqondo. -Shintsha Ubuchopho Bakho, UDkt. Caroline Leaf, BakerBooks, ikhasi 32

Ucwaningo, uyaphawula, kukhombisa ukuthi amaphesenti angama-75 kuye kwangama-95 okugula kwengqondo, ngokomzimba, kanye nokuziphatha kuvela empilweni yomuntu yokucabanga. Ngakho-ke, ukukhipha ubuthi emicabangweni yomuntu kungaba nomthelela omkhulu empilweni yomuntu, futhi kunciphise nemiphumela ye-autism, ukuwohloka komqondo nezinye izifo.

Asikwazi ukulawula izehlakalo nezimo zempilo, kepha singalawula ukusabela kwethu… Ukhululekile ukwenza izinqumo mayelana nokuthi ugxila kanjani, futhi lokhu kuthinta indlela amakhemikhali namaprotheni nokuxhunywa kobuchopho bakho okushintsha ngayo nemisebenzi.—Cf. k. 33

OwayengumSatanist, uDeboarah Lipsky encwadini yakhe Umlayezo Wethemba ^[13]nbamalinking ichaza ukuthi ukucabanga okungalungile kufana kanjani nesibani esidonsela imimoya emibi kithi, njengenyama ebolayo edonsa izimpukane. Ngakho-ke, kulabo abathambekele ekuthambekeleni, ekubeni nethemba, nokungabi nathemba — qaphela! Uheha ubumnyama, futhi ubumnyama buxosha ukukhanya kwenjabulo, esikhundleni salo kube nomunyu nosizi.

Izinkinga zethu zansuku zonke nezinkathazo zingasisonga kithi, ngokudabuka nangomunyu… futhi kulapho ukufa kukhona khona. Leyo akusiyo indawo yokufuna Lowo ophilayo! —UPOP FRANCIS, Easter Vigil Homily, Mashi 30, 2013; www.v Vatican.va

Mhlawumbe kuzomangaza abanye abafundi ukwazi ukuthi imibhalo yami yakamuva ephathelene nempi, ukujeziswa, noMphikukristu yabhalwa ngenjabulo yePhasika enhliziyweni yami! Ukujabula akuzibi iqiniso, usizi, nokuhlupheka; ayidlali. Empeleni, yinjabulo kaJesu eyenza sikwazi ukududuza abalilayo, ukukhulula isiboshwa, ukuthela ibhalisi emanxebeni abalimele, ngokuqondile ngoba sithwala kubo injabulo yangempela nethemba, lelo loVuko olungalele kweziphambano zokuhlupheka kwethu.

Yenza izinqumo eziqondile ukuze ube nethemba, ubambe ulimi lwakho, uthule ekuhluphekeni, futhi uthembele kuJesu. Enye yezindlela ezinhle kakhulu zokwenza lokhu ukuhlakulela umoya wokubonga ezintweni zonke—konke izinto:

Bongani kuzo zonke izimo, ngoba lokhu kuyintando kaNkulunkulu ngani kuKristu Jesu. (1 Thes. 5:18)

Lokhu nakho yilokho okushiwo lapho uPapa Francis ethi, “hhayi ukubheka phakathi kwabafileyo koPhilayo. ” ^[14]I-Easter Vigil Homily, Mashi 30, 2013; www.v Vatican.va Lokho kungukuthi, kumKristu, sithola ithemba esiphambanweni, impilo eSigodini Sokufa, nokukhanya ethuneni ngokukholwa okukholwayo zonke izinto zisebenzela okuhle kulabo abamthandayo. ^[15]I-Rom 8: 28

Ngokuphila lezi zindlela ezinhlanu, okuyisisekelo salo lonke ingokomoya lobuKristu, singaqiniseka ukuthi Uthando luzonqoba ukwesaba ezinhliziyweni zethu kanye nobumnyama obwehlela umhlaba wethu. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uzobe usiza abanye ngokukhanya kokholo lwakho ukuze baqale ukufuna Lowo Ophilayo

Awuyikwesaba ukwesaba ebusuku, noma umcibisholo ondizayo emini, noma isifo esiwumshayabhuqe esihamba ebumnyameni, nesifo esihlasela ngamandla emini. Noma kuyiwa abayizinkulungwane eceleni kwakho, izinkulungwane eziyishumi ngakwesokunene sakho, akuyikufika eduze kwakho. Udinga umane ubuke; ukujeziswa kwababi uzakubona. Ngoba uyiNkosi isiphephelo sakho futhi Wenze oPhezukonke waba yinqaba yakho (AmaHubo 91-5-9)

Phrinta lokhu. Yigcine ibhukhimakhi. Bhekisa kulo ngalezo zikhathi zobumnyama. Igama likaJesu ngu Emmanuel - "uNkulunkulu unathi".^[16]UMathewu 1: 23 Ungesabi!
