Hlalani Kimi

Ishicilelwe okokuqala ngoMeyi 8, 2015…

IF awunakho ukuthula, zibuze imibuzo emithathu: Ngabe ngisentandweni kaNkulunkulu? Ingabe ngiyamethemba? Ngabe ngiyamthanda uNkulunkulu nomakhelwane kulo mzuzu? Kalula nje, ngikhona ethembekile, ukwethemba, Futhi ngothando?^[1]bheka Ukwakha iNdlu Yokuthula Noma nini lapho ulahlekelwa ukuthula kwakho, dlula kule mibuzo njengohlu lokuhlola, bese uhlela kabusha ingxenye eyodwa noma ngaphezulu yengqondo nokuziphatha kwakho ngaleso sikhathi uthi, “Awu, Nkosi, ngiyaxolisa, ngiyekile ukuhlala kuwe. Ungixolele ungisize ngiqale phansi.” Ngale ndlela, uzokwakha kancane kancane a Indlu Yokuthula, ngisho naphakathi kwezilingo.

Leyo mibuzo emithathu emifushane ifingqa yonke impilo yobuKristu futhi inqume ukuthela kwayo noma ukuntuleka kwayo. UJesu ukubeka ngale ndlela:

Hlalani kimi, njengoba nami ngihlala kini. Njengoba nje igatsha lingenakuthela izithelo lodwa ngaphandle kokuthi lihlale emvinini, kanjalo nawe ngeke ube ngaphandle kokuhlala kimi. Mina ngingumvini, nina ningamagatsha. Ohlala kimi, nami kuye, uyakuthela izithelo eziningi, ngokuba ngaphandle kwami ningenze lutho. (Johane 15: 4-5)

Ngamafuphi nje, ukwethembeka, ukuthembela nothando ngokweZwi likaNkulunkulu ubungane naye. Yimuphi “unkulunkulu” kuzo zonke izinkolo zomhlaba ofisa ukusondelana nendalo yaKhe njengeNkosi yethu uJesu, uNkulunkulu oyedwa weqiniso? Njengoba esho eVangelini lanamuhla:

Ningabangane bami uma nenza lokho enginiyala ngakho… Mina enganikhetha futhi nganibeka ukuthi nihambe nithela izithelo ezizosala…

Yonke into emhlabeni ibonakala iphenduka ibheke phansi—futhi kwenzeka ngokushesha okukhulu. Ngikhunjuzwa isithombe iNkosi eyasigcizelela kakhulu kimi inhliziyo a isiphepho: lapho usondela eduze kweso lesiphepho, imimoya esheshayo futhi enamandla kakhulu. Ngokufanayo, lapho sisondela khona iso lalesi Siphepho samanje, ^[2]qhathanisa Iso Lesiphepho izehlakalo nobubi obuzoshesha buzokwanda ngokulandelana. ^[3]qhathanisa Izimpawu Eziyisikhombisa Zenguquko

Izolo ebusuku ngenkathi ngicabanga ngokumangala isibalo nobucayi bezinguquko ezinkulu ezenzeka emhlabeni wonke, ngizwe iNkosi ixwayisa ukuthi lokhu Storm ngizo kakhulu ukuthi umuntu angakuthwala ngaphandle komusa. Ukuthi ngenkathi kugqashuka impi lapha, kuzoqubuka izinhlupho lapho; ngenkathi kusweleka ukudla lapha, kuzoqubuka izinxushunxushu zomphakathi lapho; ngenkathi kushushiswa lapha, ukuzamazama komhlaba kuzamazamisa abantu laphaya, njalonjalo…. Kungakho ngikholelwa ukuthi sifinyelela ezingeni lapho ukufunda izindaba ezisematheni kufanele kwenziwe ngokuqapha okukhulu, uma kunjalo: kunenkohliso enkulu, udlame, nobubi obuqhamuka emhlabeni wonke kangangokuthi umuntu abe sengozini yokuwela ekudumazekeni futhi ukulahla ithemba. Kungani? Ngoba…

… Umzabalazo wethu awuhlangene nenyama negazi kepha ubuswa yizikhulu, namandla, nababusi bomhlaba balobu bumnyama bamanje, nemimoya emibi ezulwini. (Efe 6:12)

Ngabe uyafuna ukwazi ukuthi uJesu ufuna ukwenzani ngomhlambi wakhe othembekile phakathi nakho konke lokhu? Babusise. Babusise ngedili likamoya elihle. Uma lokhu kuzwakala kungenangqondo, lalela okushiwo ngumdumisi ngoMalusi Omuhle:

Noma ngihamba esigodini sethunzi lokufa, angiyikwesaba okubi, ngokuba wena unami; induku yakho nodondolo lwakho kuyangiduduza. Ubeka itafula phambi kwami phambi kwezitha zami; Ugcoba ikhanda lami ngamafutha; indebe yami iyachichima… (AmaHubo 23: 4-5)

Kuphakathi kwaleli siko lokufa, phakathi kwenhlekelele yokugcina yokufa yalesi sikhathi, lapho uJesu efuna ukunikeza abantu Bakhe umusa omusha phambi kwamehlo esitha sethu. Indlela yokuzithola ngaleso sikhathi iyizinhlaka ezintathu: thembeka, uthembele, futhi ube nothando — ngegama elilodwa, hlala kuYe. Susa amehlo akho esivunguvungwini uwafake kuJesu okwamanje.

Ngabe ukhona kini ngokukhathazeka ongeza umzuzwana empilweni yakhe? Uma izinto ezincane kakhulu zingaphezu kwamandla akho, kungani ukhathazeka ngokunye? (Luka 12: 25-26)

Okokugcina, futhi nakanjani okungenani, uma uzothela izithelo, lapho-ke ubisi lukaMoya oNgcwele kufanele lugeleze phakathi kwenhliziyo yakho. Zimbili izindlela okwenzeka ngazo lokhu: amaSakramente nomthandazo. AmaSakramente empeleni ayizimpande zoMvini. Futhi kunjalo umkhuleko wenhliziyo ukuthi idonsela zonke izakhamzimba kanye ne-Sap egatsheni lenhliziyo yakho. Umkhuleko umane uyisenzo sokubheka ngothando eNkosini, kungaba ngamazwi noma cha. Lolu hlobo lomkhuleko, lo mkhuleko we inhliziyo, yikho okudonsa umusa ukuze thina can thembeka, uthembele, futhi ube nothando. Kungakho uJesu akubiza ngobungani: ukuhlala kuYe kungukushintshana kwenhliziyo Yakhe nokwethu, futhi ngendlela efanayo. Lokhu kuza ngomkhuleko. Beka ngenye indlela, izitini nodaka lweNdlu Yokuthula ngumthandazo.

Alikho iVangeli elisha — ngisho nakulezi “zikhathi zokuphela”. Kudala ngicabanga kakhulu ngamazwi alula uJesu asicela ukuba siwathandaze kulezi zikhathi, njengoba kwadluliselwa kuSt. Faustina:

Jesu, ngithemba wena.

Cabanga ngalokho. Uvezele uSt. Faustina ukuthi umyalezo woMusa Waphezulu uzolungiselela umhlaba ngokuza Kwakhe:

Ngezwa la mazwi ekhulunywa ngokusobala nangamandla ngaphakathi komphefumulo wami, Uzolungiselela umhlaba ukufika Kwami kokugcina. —UJesu kuya eSt Faustina, Isihe SikaNkulunkulu Somphefumlo Wami, Idayari, n. 429

Ungacabanga ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi uJesu usinike ukuzinikela okude, noma umkhuleko omude wokuxosha amademoni, noma uhlelo olusha lwengokomoya ukuze singene ngokomoya. impi yalezi zinsuku. Kunalokho, Wasinika amagama amahlanu:

Jesu, ngithemba wena.

Vumela lawa magama amahlanu ahlale ezindebeni zakho usuku lonke, eluka ndawonye njengenaliti futhi acule izenzo ezintathu zokwethembeka, ukwethemba, nothando. Phela, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi iSiphepho siba sibi kangakanani, umBhalo ngokwawo ubonakala ubikezela ukuvelela kwalawa mazwi amancane amahlanu:

Ilanga liyakuphendulwa libe mnyama, nenyanga ibe ligazi, lungakafiki usuku olukhulu nolukhazimulayo lweNkosi; wonke umuntu uyakusindiswa obiza igama leNkosi. (IzEnzo 2: 20-21)

Ngempela, esibizelwe kukho ukulingisa “Owesifazane owembethe ilanga”:

Izimpilo zenu kumele zifane nezami: zithule futhi zifihliwe, ebunyeni obungapheli noNkulunkulu, zincengela isintu futhi zilungiselela umhlaba ukubuya kukaNkulunkulu kwesibili. -Ubusisiwe Umama kuSt Faustina, Isihe SikaNkulunkulu Somphefumlo Wami, Idayari, hhayi. 625

Cha, anginakho okuningi engingakusho lapho ngizoyibeka khona imali yakho, ukuthi kungakanani ukudla engingakubeka, noma kufanele ubalekele ezweni lakini… kepha uma uhlala kuJesu, awucabangi ukuthi uzokuhola?

Ngifuna ukwabelana nawe ngale ngoma engiyibhalile. Ngenye yezintandokazi zami. Mhlawumbe kungaba ngumkhuleko kuwe kusihlwa…
