Uma kukhulunywa ngokuhlinzeka ngezidingo zomndeni wakho, yilokho ekugcineni indima kaBaba waseZulwini.
Uma uNkulunkulu embathisa kanjalo utshani basendle, obumila namuhla, buze buphonswe eziko kusasa, akayikunakekela kakhulu nina eninokholo oluncane na? Ngakho-ke ningakhathazeki nithi: 'Sizodlani?' noma 'Sizophuzani?' noma, 'Sizogqokani?' Zonke lezi zinto ezifunwa ngabahedeni. UYihlo osezulwini uyazi ukuthi niyazidinga zonke. Kodwa funani kuqala umbuso kaNkulunkulu nokulunga kwakhe, khona-ke zonke lezi zinto niyonikwa zona ngaphandle. (Math 6: 30-33)

Ukufuna kuqala uMbuso kaNkulunkulu ukufuna kuqala izindaba zoMbuso. Ukufuna kuqala okubaluleke kakhulu kuNkulunkulu. Futhi lokho, mngani wami, kunjalo imiphefumulo.

Ukushisekela ukusindiswa kwemiphefumulo kufanele kushise ezinhliziyweni zethu. -Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami, Idayari yaseSt Faustina, n. 350
KANJANI?
Ngifuna kanjani ukuba neNhliziyo kaNkulunkulu, ngibe nothando lwaKhe ngemiphefumulo olushaya esifubeni sami? Impendulo ilula, futhi isibuko sayo silele esivumelwaneni somshado. Indoda nenkosikazi bayasha ngenxa yothando lomunye nomunye ekugcineni komshado wabo — lapho bazinikele ngokuphelele komunye. Kunjalo nakuNkulunkulu. Lapho uzinikela ngokuphelele kuYe ngokushintsha kwenhliziyo, ngokuguquka kwenhliziyo okhetha kuyena ngaphezu kwezithixo empilweni yakho, khona-ke kwenzeka okuthile okunamandla. UJesu utshala imbewu yeZwi laKhe enhliziyweni yakho evulekile, azinikele ngokuphelele kuwe. Futhi iZwi laKhe linjalo Ukuphila. Inamandla okuletha impilo entsha ngaphakathi kuwe, okungukuthi, ukukhulelwa nokuletha ukuvuthwa okugcwele uKristu uqobo emphefumulweni wakho.
Zihloleni nibone ukuthi nihlala ngokukholwa yini. Zihloleni nina. Awazi yini ukuthi uJesu Kristu uphakathi kwakho? (2 Kor 13: 5)
Kukhona uguquko lwangempela nolunamandla olwenzeka lapho thina ukwethemba kuNkulunkulu. Lapho sethembela entethelelweni Yakhe nasothandweni Lwakhe, ecebeni Lakhe nasekuhleleni Kwakhe, okubekwe emithethweni nasemiyalweni Yakhe.
Ngesikhathi seMisa eNgcwele, nganikwa ulwazi lweNhliziyo kaJesu kanye nemvelo yomlilo wothando asishisa ngawo nokuthi uluLwandle loMusa kanjani. —Ukuhlukanisa Isihe Emoyeni Wami, Idayari yaseSt Faustina, n. 1142
Amalangabi omusa ayangishisa. Ngifisa ukuwathululela emiphefumulweni yabantu. O, bunjani ubuhlungu abangizwisa bona uma bengafuni ukubemukela! —UJesu waya eSt. Faustina, Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami,n. 1047
Lapho siqala ukusondela kuNkulunkulu ngale ndlela, njengendodana ngaphambi kukaPapa waKhe, noma udade noMfowabo omdala, khona-ke uthando lukaNkulunkulu, iNhliziyo kaNkulunkulu iqala ukusiguqula. Bese, ngiqala ukwazi nokuqonda ukuthi unenhliziyo enjani ngoba ngiyabona, ngiyazi, ngiyathola, ukuthi unesihe kangakanani kimi.
Ukuvuma yiChamber of Mercy enkulu, leyo ndawo lapho ngiphiliswa khona futhi ngibuyiselwe futhi ngigonwe, hhayi ngenxa yanoma yini engiyenzile, kodwa ngoba ngithandwa — futhi naphezu kwezono zami Azisusayo! Lokhu kungenza kanjani ukuthi inhliziyo yami ingamthandi kakhulu? Ngakho-ke ngishiya ukuvuma izono ngiye kuYe-eChamber of Love, okuyi-Altar eNgcwele. Futhi sengizinikele kuYe ngokuvuma izono, Manje uzinikela kimi kuMthendeleko oNgcwele. Lesi sidlo, lokhu kushintshana kothando, ngikuqhuba usuku lonke ku Umthandazo; amagama amancane othando akhulunywayo lapho ngishanela phansi, noma izikhathi zokuthula lapho ngifunda khona iZwi laKhe noma ngimlalele ngokuthula ngicula iculo lothando lobukhona Bakhe buthule kaninginingi. Isidalwa simemeza sithi, “Nkosi, ngibuthakathaka kakhulu futhi nginesono… futhi uMdali uyacula,Ngiyakuthanda, ngiyakuthanda, ngiyakuthanda! ”
Isoni masingasabi ukusondela Kimi. Amalangabi omusa ayangishisa — ekhala ngokuthi makasetshenziswe; Ngifuna ukuwathululela phezu kwale miphefumulo… Ngifisa ukuthi nazi ngokujule kakhulu uthando oluvutha Enhliziyweni Yami ngemiphefumulo, futhi nizokuqonda lokhu uma nizindla ngothando lwami.. -Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami, Jesus to St. Faustina, n. 50, 186
Lolu lwazi lwangaphakathi, lokhu kuhlakanipha kwaphezulu, bese kungisiza ukuba ngazi ukuthi kufanele ngibe ngubani. Kungenza ngikwazi ukubuka iso lesitha sami, yebo, emehlweni omuntu okhipha isisu, umbulali, noma ngundlovukayiphikiswa, futhi ngiyamthanda, ngoba ngiyazi ukuthi kuyini ukuthandwa, naphezu kwami. Ngifunda ukuthanda ngenhliziyo kaNkulunkulu. Nginothando ngenhliziyo kaJesu ngoba ngivumele yena, uthando nesihe sakhe, ukuba aphile kimi. Ngiyingxenye yoMzimba Wakhe, ngakho-ke, umzimba Wakhe manje usuyingxenye yami.
Ungowakho njengoba ikhanda lingelomzimba. Konke okwakhe kungokwakho: umoya, inhliziyo, umzimba, umphefumulo nawo wonke amandla akhe. Konke lokhu kumele ukusebenzise kube sengathi kungokwakho, ukuze ekukhonzeni kwakho umnikeze udumo, uthando nenkazimulo… Ufisa ukuthi konke okukuye kuphile futhi kubuse kuwe: umoya wakhe ekuphefumuleni kwakho, inhliziyo yakhe enhliziyweni yakho, wonke amandla omphefumulo wakhe emikhonweni yomphefumulo wakho, ukuze la mazwi agcwaliseke kuwe: Khazimulisa uNkulunkulu futhi umthwale emzimbeni wakho, ukuze impilo kaJesu ibonakaliswe kuwe (2 Kor. 4:11). —USt. UJohn Eudes, Imfundo yamahora, Umq. IV, k. 1331
Bafowethu nodadewethu abathandekayo abakhathazekile nabakhathazeka ngezinto eziningi: nikhathazeka ngezinto ezingalungile. Uma ufuna izinto zomhlaba, ngakho-ke awunayo Inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu; uma ukhathazekile ngokubambelela ezintweni onazo, kusho ukuthi awunayo Inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu.

Kepha uma uhlala njenge-pilgrim, umfokazi emigwaqweni yakho, umfokazi nowezizwe emsebenzini wakho ngoba inhliziyo nengqondo yakho kugxile ekubeni usawoti nokukhanya kulabo abakuzungezile, khona-ke, usuqalile ukufuna kuqala uMbuso zikaNkulunkulu nokulunga kwakhe. Uqale ukuphila ngokusuka enhliziyweni kaNkulunkulu.
AKE SENZE NGOKWENZA!
Yebo, ake sisebenzise lapho. Ngabe umzali noma owakwakhe, ophathiswe umthwalo wemfanelo womndeni wakhe, inhlalakahle nempilo yawo, uwufuna kanjani kuqala uMbuso kaNkulunkulu?
INkosi uqobo iyakutshela:
Ngangilambile wangipha ukudla, ngangomile futhi wangiphuzisa, ngangiyisihambi wangamukela, ngihamba ze wangigqokisa, ngagula wanginakekela, ejele wangivakashela… noma yini oyenzele kulaba bafowethu abancane kakhulu, ungenzele kona. (Math 25: 34-36, 40)
Ngabe izingane zakho azilambile? Ngabe umkakho awomile? Ingabe omakhelwane bakho kaningi ababazi? Ngabe umndeni wakho awunqunu ngaphandle kokuthi uwembathise? Ngabe izingane zakho aziguli ngezikhathi ezithile futhi zidinga ukunakekelwa? Ngabe amalungu omndeni wakho awavame ukuboshwa ngenxa yokwesaba kwabo? Bese ubakhulula, ubanike ukudla, ubanike baphuze. Bingelela omakhelwane bakho futhi wembule ubuso bukaKristu kubo. Gqokisa izingane zakho, uzithengele umuthi, futhi ube lapho ukuze zikukhombe indlela eya enkululekweni yangempela. Lokhu uzokwenza ngomsebenzi wakho, umsebenzi wakho, umsebenzi wakho, izindlela uNkulunkulu akunike zona. Futhi uBaba oseZulwini uzokunikeza okudingayo. Ngokwenza njalo, uzokwembathisa nokondla uKristu phakathi kwakho. Kepha ohlangothini lwakho, inhloso yakho akuyona izidingo zabo kangako bathande bangene eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu. Ngoba uma wondla futhi ugqoka futhi unakekela izingane zakho, kepha awukwenzi ukuthanda, lapho-ke uSt. Paul uthi imisebenzi yakho ayinalutho, awunawo amandla 'okwenza izizwe izizwe.' [1]UMathewu 28: 19 Lowo ngumsebenzi wakho phela, ukwenza abafundi bezingane zakho.
Uma ngingenalo uthando, angizuzi lutho. (1 Kor 13: 3)
Ngibazi abesilisa nabesifazane ngokufanayo okuthi, noma babengababazi noma abasebenza ngamapayipi amanzi noma omama bezindlu noma yini onayo, basebenze neNhliziyo kaNkulunkulu. Bathandaza ngenkathi beshaya amapayipi amanzi futhi beshumayela ngenkathi besebenza, imvamisa buthule futhi bengenawo amagama, ngoba basebenza neNhliziyo kaNkulunkulu, benza izinto ezincane ngothando olukhulu. Izingqondo zabo zazigxile kuKristu, umholi nomphelelisi wokholo lwabo. [2]isib. Hebheru 12: 2 Baqonda ukuthi ubuKrestu akuyona into ovula ngayo ngeSonto ihora elilodwa, bese uvala kuze kube yiSonto elizayo. Le miphefumulo yayihlala "ivuliwe," ihlala ihamba ngeNhliziyo kaKristu… izindebe zikaKristu, izindlebe zikaKristu, izandla zikaKristu.
Bafowethu nodadewethu abathandekayo, imigqa yokukhathazeka elandelela iziphequluli zakho kufanele ibe imigqa yeNjabulo. Lokhu kuzokwenzeka kuphela uma uqala ukwenza funa kuqala uMbuso kaNkulunkulu. Lapho inhliziyo yakho iqala ukushaya ngenhliziyo Engcwele, Inhliziyo evutha uthando lwemiphefumulo. Lokhu kuzoba — kufanele kube — inhliziyo ka Ukushumayela okusha okuzayo.
O, mkhulu kangakanani umlilo wothando olumsulwa oluvutha Enhliziyweni Yakho Engcwelengcwele! Uyajabula umphefumulo osewaqonda uthando lweNhliziyo kaJesu! -Isihe Saphezulu Emphefumulweni Wami, IDayari kaSt Faustina, n. 304
Ngokuba lapho kukhona ingcebo yakho, lapho iyakuba khona nenhliziyo yakho… Ungeke wakhonza uNkulunkulu noMamona. (Math 6: 19-21, 24)
