Ugibe olukhathalelayo
Angikaze ngizibheke njengomuntu ozibalela iso iqiniso. Kepha ngiyavuma ukuthi ngishintshela esiteshini esimayelana nama-documentary ezilwane lapho izindaba zingenakubekezeleleka noma ama-movie enqabe kakhulu ukuba angaba nentshisekelo kuwo. Kunokuthile okuzuzisa ngempela ngokubuka abaqaphi bebamba izilwane zasendle uma kunesidingo, kwesinye isikhathi bazelaphe ngemithi futhi bahambise yonke imihlambi baye kwenye indawo lapho imvelo ibanikeza khona izimo ezingcono zokuphila. Abaqaphi bavame ukubeka impilo yabo engcupheni lapho amabhubesi, izimvubu noma obhejane kufanele bamangale. Vele basebenza ngamaqembu futhi zonke izinyathelo ziyahlelwa futhi zenziwe ngemishini edingekayo. Kepha kwesinye isikhathi kuseceleni kommese ukuthi ngabe ukwelashwa kuzovela kahle.
Ngikhumbula omunye umkhankaso owawuhlelwe kahle futhi wahamba kahle. Ithimba lochwepheshe lakha "umgibe" womhlambi we-eland okwakudingeka uthuthelwe kwenye indawo. Lapho kufanele athole amadlelo angcono futhi axubane nomunye umhlambi ukuze athuthukise ufuzo lwakhe. Okwangithakasela kakhulu ukubona ukuthi bakwazi kanjani ukuthola umhlambi wezilwane ezinamandla, ezinolaka, ezigijima ngokushesha ukuze zingene emavenini ayelindile. Lokhu kwakufezwa ngokumisa imigoqo yendwangu eyayibekwe ngezigxobo. Izilwane zazivalelwa kancane kancane ukuze ziphushelwe ngokucophelela kubathuthi ababelindile.
Ezinye kwaba nzima ukuzibamba. Kodwa-ke, la madoda awazange anikeze kuze kube yilapho zonke izilwane zihlala endaweni ephephile kubathuthi. Ngaleso sikhathi bekufanele ukubona ukuthi izilwane zikhishelwa kanjani emakhaya abo amasha, lapho bezohlala ngokukhululeka nangcono, yize bebengazi nakwazi lokho.
Ngabona ukuthi kunokufana phakathi kwabantu abasindisa lezi zilwane noMdali wethu osihola ngothando endleleni eya ensindisweni yakhe yaphakade ephelele. Ngokungafani nezinyamazane ze-eland esiqiwini, siyazi ngezibusiso zikaNkulunkulu kukho konke lokhu kuphila kanye nesithembiso sokuphila okuphakade.
Esahlukweni sokuqala sencwadi yakhe, umprofethi u-Isaya ukhalela ukungazi kwabantu bakaNkulunkulu. Inkabi, ilobile, iyawazi inkosi yayo, nembongolo iyawazi umkhombe wenkosi yayo; kodwa abantu bakaNkulunkulu uqobo abazi futhi abazi futhi (Isaya 1,3). Mhlawumbe yingakho iBhayibheli livame ukubhekisela kithi njengezimvu, futhi kubonakala sengathi izimvu azizona ezinye zezilwane ezihlakaniphe kakhulu. Zivame ukuhamba ngendlela yazo ukuze zithole iklabishi elingcono kuyilapho umalusi onolwazi kakhulu eziholela endaweni engcono kakhulu yokuklama. Ezinye izimvu zithanda ukuzenza zinethezekile emhlabathini othambile futhi ziphendule inhlabathi ibe umgodi. Lokhu kuholela ekutheni babhajwe bangakwazi nokusukuma. Ngakho akumangalisi ukuthi umprofethi ofanayo esahlukweni 53,6 uyabhala: “Bonke baduka njengezimvu”.
Impela esikudingayo uJesu uzichaza ‘njengomalusi omuhle’ kuJohane 10,11 futhi 14. Emfanekisweni wemvu elahlekile ( Luka 15 ) udweba umfanekiso womalusi ofika ekhaya nemvu elahlekile emahlombe akhe, egcwele injabulo ngokuphinde atholakale. UMelusi wethu omuhle akasishayi lapho siduka njengezimvu. Ngeziyalezo ezicacile nezimnene ezivela kuMoya oNgcwele, usiholela emuva endleleni efanele.
Yeka ukuthi uJesu waba nesihe kangakanani kuPetru, owamphika kathathu! Wathi kuye: "Yipha amawundlu ami" futhi "Yipha izimvu zami". Wamema uTomase owayengabaza: “Yelula umunwe wakho ubone izandla zami, ... ungabi ongakholwayo, kodwa okholwayo”. Awekho amazwi ahlabayo noma inhlamba, isenzo nje sokuthethelela esihambisana nobufakazi obungenakuphikiswa bokuvuka Kwakhe. Yilokhu kanye uThomas ayekudinga.
Umalusi omuhle ofanayo wazi kahle ukuthi kudingekani ukuhlala emadlelweni akhe amahle futhi uqhubeka nokusithethelela lapho senza amaphutha awubuwula afanayo. Uyasithanda noma singalahleka kuphi. Uyasivumela ukuthi sifunde izifundo esizidingayo. Kwesinye isikhathi izifundo zibuhlungu, kepha akalokothi asidele.
Ekuqaleni kwendalo, uNkulunkulu wayehlose ukuba abantu babuse phezu kwazo zonke izilwane kulo mhlaba (1. mose 1,26). Njengoba sazi, abazali bethu abakhulu banquma ukuhamba ngendlela yabo, ukuze singaboni ukuthi konke kungaphansi kwabantu (Hebheru 2,8).
Lapho uJesu ebuya ukuzobuyisela zonke izinto, abantu bazokwamukela ukuphatha uNkulunkulu ayebahlose ngakho ekuqaleni.
Abaqaphi abakhonjiswe besebenza embukisweni we-TV babenentshisekelo yangempela yokwenza ngcono izimpilo zezilwane zasendle lapho. Kuthatha ubuhlakani obukhulu ukuzungeza izilwane ngaphandle kokuzilimaza. Injabulo esobala nokwaneliseka abakutholile ngesenzo esiyimpumelelo kuboniswe ebusweni obukhanyayo nangokuxhawulana kwabo bobabili.
Kodwa lokho kuqhathaniswa kanjani nenjabulo nenjabulo yeqiniso eyoba khona lapho uJesu uMalusi Omuhle eqeda “umsebenzi wokusindisa” eMbusweni waKhe? Ingabe ukuhlaliswa kabusha kwezindawo ezimbalwa, okwenza kahle iminyaka embalwa, kungaqhathaniswa nokusindiswa kwezigidigidi zabantu phakade? Nakanjani akukho ndlela!
