Izikhathi Zamacilongo - Ingxenye III

Inkosikazi Yethu Yendondo Eyisimangaliso, Umculi Akaziwa

 

OKUNINGI izincwadi ziyaqhubeka nokungena zivela kubafundi abanezifanekiso zikaMarian ezinesandla sokunxele esiphukile. Abanye bangachaza ukuthi kungani isifanekiso sabo saphuka, kuyilapho abanye bengakwazi. Kodwa mhlawumbe lokho akulona iphuzu. Ngicabanga ukuthi okubalulekile ukuthi kunjalo njalo isandla. 

 

ISIKHATHI SOMUSA

Ngibhale kwenye indawo ngokubaluleka kwesikhathi esiphila kuso: “isikhathi somusa,” njengoba besibizwa kanjalo. Nakuba ngikholelwa ukuthi “ukubala kokugcina” kwalenkathi kwaqala ngesigijimi seSihe esanikezwa uSt. Faustina, “isikhathi somusa” singalandelelwa ngokubonakala kweNkosikazi Yethu kuSt. Catherine Labouré, izinsalela zakhe ezingonakalanga usuku. 

Umlayezo waseMarian oya emhlabeni wanamuhla uqala ngendlela yembewu ekwambulweni kweNkosazana Yethu yeGrace e-Rue du Bac, bese inweba ekucaciseni nasekuqiniseni phakathi nekhulu lamashumi amabili kuya nasesikhathini sethu. Kubalulekile ukukhumbula ukuthi lo mlayezo waseMarian ugcina ubunye bawo obuyisisekelo njengomyalezo owodwa ovela kuMama oyedwa. —UDkt. UMark Miravalle, Isambulo Sangasese—Ukuqonda NeBandla; k. 52

Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi ubizwa ngokuthi “Inkosikazi Yethu Yomusa” ekuqaleni kwale nkathi yaseMarian. Phakathi nombono othile, uMary wabonakala kuSt. Catherine enemisebe yokukhanya—umusa—iphuma ezandleni zakhe. Inkosikazi yethu yabe isicela ukuthi uSt. Catherine athole indondo kuleso sithombe, ethembisa ukuthi,

Bonke abaligqokayo bayothola umusa omkhulu; kufanele igqokwe entanyeni. Umusa omkhulu uzonikezwa labo abawugqoka ngokuzethemba. - INkosikazi Yethu Yomusa

“Ngokuqiniseka,” okungukuthi, ukholo kuNkulunkulu—uJesu Kristu—okuwumyalezo oyinhloko weVangeli. Bekungeke kube okokuqala ukuthi uNkulunkulu akhethe ukusebenzisa izinto zibe amathuluzi omusa (bona iZenzo 19:11-12). Nokho, iphuzu lapha ukuthi lezo zomusa aziveli ocezwini lwensimbi, kodwa ziphuma esiphambanweni futhi zidlule. Izandla zeNkosazana yethu.

Lobumama bukaMariya ngokulandelana komusa buyaqhubeka ngaphandle kokuphazamiseka kusukela emvumeni ayinikeza ngokwethembeka eSimemezelweni futhi ayisekela ngaphandle kokuntengantenga ngaphansi kwesiphambano, kuze kube sekugcwalisekeni kwaphakade kwabo bonke abakhethiweyo. Enyuselwe ezulwini akazange asibeke eceleni lesi sikhundla esisindisayo kodwa ngokunxusa kwakhe okuhlukahlukene uyaqhubeka nokusilethela izipho zensindiso yaphakade. . . . Ngakho-ke iNcasakazi eBusisiwe icelwa eBandleni ngaphansi kwezihloko ezithi Advocate, uMsizi, uMhlomuli, nethi Mediatrix. —Ikhathekizimu yeSonto LamaKatolika,n. 969

Konke lokhu kusho ukuthi, ngabe lawa ma-akhawunti ezandla ezaphulwa ezithombeni zikaMarian angaba yisixwayiso sokuthi isikhathi somusa siyaphela? Uma sicubungula zonke izinxushunxushu zenhlalo nezemvelo emhlabeni, empeleni kungase kube olunye uphawu lokuthi uguquko olukhulu seluzoqhamuka emhlabeni ongasoli lutho. 

 

NJALO NATHI

Uma lesi sikhathi somusa sesiqala ukuphelelwa yisikhathi, yazini ukuthi uMariya wayengeke amshiye abantwana bakhe! Ngikholelwa kunanini ngaphambili ukuthi uyoba ‘nensali yakhe encane’ kuze kube sekupheleni, ngoba uJesu iNdodana yakhe wasithembisa okufanayo:

Bhekani, mina nginani njalo kuze kube sekupheleni kwezwe. ( Mathewu 28:20 )

Kungenzeka futhi ukuthi izandla ezingekho zikhomba ukuthi uMariya uya ngokuya engakwazi ukunikeza umusa alangazelela ukukunikeza, ngoba imiphefumulo eminingi ifulathela uNkulunkulu. Kungase kube nezinye izincazelo ezibalulekile, kodwa okungenani kufanele siqaphele ukuthi isikhathi soMusa waphezulu siya ngasemaphethelweni futhi isikhathi soBulungiswa Bakhe siyasondela. Ngakho-ke, ingabe akuhambisani ngokuphelele nenhliziyo yakhe emsulwa nenothando ukuthi ufisa ukusixwayisa nganoma iyiphi indlela angenza ngayo?

Lapho uKristu ekhona, unjalo noMariya. Ngabe naye akayona ingxenye yoMzimba waKhe ongaqondakali? Kakhulu kangakanani selokhu athatha yona kanye inyama Yakhe esizalweni sakhe! Babumbene ngendlela ekhetheke kakhulu, futhi indima yakhe, njengoba iBandla lifundisa, ayizange iphele ekuKuphakameni, kodwa iyoqhubeka kuze kube yilapho owokugcina wabantwana bakhe engena emasangweni eZulwini.

Ngiyazi ukuthi abafowethu nodadewethu bamaProthestani bazobhekana nalokhu kubonakala ukugcizelela kuMariya kunoJesu. Kodwa ake ngiphinde...

Ekude “nokweba ukuduma kukaKristu”

UMary uyi umbani

ekhanyisa iNdlela.

 

SIGCWALISE IZIbani ZETHU

Lesi sikhathi somusa esiphila kuso, ngiyakholwa, yisikhathi “sokugcwalisa izibani zethu” ngamafutha. Njengoba ngibhale ku Ikhandlela Elishunqayo, ukukhanya kukaJesu kuyacishwa emhlabeni, kodwa kuya kukhanya nakakhulu ezinhliziyweni zalabo abahlala bethembekile (noma bangase bakuzwe lokhu ngokunengqondo noma cha.) Kuzofika isikhathi lapho lomusa uyobe hhayi itholakale, okungenani ngomqondo “ovamile”; lapho ubukhona obukhethekile bukaMariya buzohoxiswa, futhi Isikhathi Somusa sizongqubuzana noSuku Lobulungisa. 

Phakathi kobusuku kwamenyezwa, 'Nangu umyeni; Phumani nimhlangabeze!' Zase zisukuma lezo zintombi zonke, zalungisa izibani zazo. Eziyiziwula zathi kwezihlakaniphileyo: 'Sipheni emafutheni enu, ngokuba izibani zethu ziyacima.' Kodwa ezihlakaniphileyo zaphendula zathi: Cha, ngoba kungenzeka angasaneli thina nani. ( Mathewu 25:6-9 )

Umkhohlisi uyasebenza manje kunanini ngaphambili, ephazamisa futhi elinga uMzimba kaKristu ukuze ungabi mayelana nomsebenzi wokugcwalisa izibani zabo ngamafutha: amafutha omthandazo, ukuphenduka, nokholo. Hhawu bathandwa, kuyingozi kangakanani kulezinsuku! Akufanele sizithathe kancane! Yiba isiqiniseko ungomunye “wabahlakaniphileyo”.

Ukuqala kokuhlakanipha kungukumesaba uJehova, nokwazi oNgcwele kungukuqonda. ( IzAga 9:10 )

 

AMAKHAMBI 

Amacilongo akhalile, isixwayiso siphumele emhlabeni wonke.

Phendukani, nikholwe yizindaba ezinhle, ngokuba isikhathi sifushane.  

Ngisanda kuthola le ncwadi evela kumfundi osemusha: 

Ngiyisiphakeli se-altare esikoleni samabanga aphezulu. Ngolunye usuku ngemva kokuba ngiye ekhaya ngivela eMiseni (8/16/08, 6:00 PM), ngangena ekamelweni lami ngayosho iRosari kodwa ngama kancane ngoba ngezwa umsindo ongajwayelekile. Lalizwakala njengophondo lwenqama. Ngabe sengizwa izwi elikhulu, elihle kakhulu kodwa elihlabayo njengezwi lomculi we-opera. Leli zwi lalizwakala sengathi limemezela okuthile. INkosi yethu yangenza ngalizwa leli zwi njengezwi lengelosi. Uphondo lwenqama lwaqhubeka luhamba lodwa imizuzu embalwa, ngase ngizwa ukuhuba okudabukisayo nokuphindaphindayo (lapho uphondo luhamba ngemuva). Manje, anginazo izinkinga zengqondo nanoma yini enjalo, futhi angiwezwa amazwi ekhanda lami. Ngivivinya nemimoya, njengoba kufundiswa umama neBhayibheli Elingcwele. Igumbi lami laliwukuphela kwendawo engangizwa kuyo lokhu kuhlabelela, ngakho ngatshela umama engangikuzwile futhi wangena ekamelweni lami ukuze abone ukuthi uyezwa yini. Impela wayekuzwa nokucula. Selokhu ngazizwa izingelosi nsuku zonke. Ngaluzwa uphondo ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ngemva kwalolo suku futhi manje alusekho.

Emlonyeni wezingane.

Ngakho-ke, hlalani niphapheme, ngoba anilwazi usuku noma ihora. (Math 25:13)
