Isipho sikaNkulunkulu kithi
Kubantu abaningi, uNyaka Omusha yisikhathi sokushiya izinkinga ezindala nokwesaba ngemuva futhi wenze isiqalo esisha esinesibindi empilweni. Sifuna ukuqhubekela phambili ezimpilweni zethu, kodwa amaphutha, izono, kanye nezilingo kubukeka sengathi kusibophele esikhathini esedlule. Kuyithemba lami elikhulu nomkhuleko wami ukuthi uzoqala lonyaka unesiqiniseko esigcwele sokukholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukuthethelele wakwenza ingane yakhe ayithandayo. Cabanga ngakho! Bami bengenacala phambi kukaNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu uqobo usengenelele ukuze akukhokhele isigwebo sentambo futhi akuthwese isithunzi nodumo lwengane oyithandayo! Hhayi ukuthi uvele uphenduke umuntu ongenasici.
UNkulunkulu ubeke phezu kwenu umusa Wakhe ongenakulinganiswa, ukubonakaliswa kothando Lwakhe olujulile. Ngothando lwakhe olungenamkhawulo, wenza noma yini edingekayo ukuze akusindise. Ngokuthatha isimo somuntu kukaJesu Kristu, owaphila njengathi kodwa engenasono, wasikhulula ezibophweni zokufa namandla esono ekuphileni kwethu ngokufa kwakhe esiphambanweni. Umphostoli uPawulu uchaza lomusa kaNkulunkulu njengesipho esingenakukhulumeka (2. AbaseKorinte 9,15).
Lesi sipho singuJesu Kristu: “Lowo ongayigodlanga eyakhe iNdodana, kepha wayinikela ngenxa yethu sonke, akayikusinika kanjani konke kanye nayo na? (AmaRoma 8,32).
Ngokomuntu, kuhle kakhulu ukuba yiqiniso, kodwa kuyiqiniso. Ithemba lami ukuthi niyobona futhi nilamukele iqiniso elimangalisayo lesipho sikaNkulunkulu. Kumayelana nokuvumela uMoya oNgcwele ukuba asiqondise ukuze sihambisane nomfanekiso kaKristu. Kumayelana nokuthulula uthando lukaNkulunkulu komunye nomunye nakubo bonke labo uNkulunkulu abaletha ezimpilweni zethu. Imayelana nokwabelana ngeqiniso elimangalisayo lokukhululeka esonweni, esonweni nasekufeni nabo bonke labo abazimisele ukuzwa nokukholwa izindaba ezinhle. Wonke umuntu ubaluleke ngokungenakulinganiswa. NgoMoya oNgcwele sonke sihlanganyela omunye komunye. Simunye kuKristu, futhi okwenzeka komunye wethu kuyasithinta sonke. Ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho ubamba izandla zakho welula ngothando komunye umuntu, usiza ekukhuliseni umbuso kaNkulunkulu.
Noma umbuso enkazimulweni yawo ungeke ube khona kuze kubuye uJesu, uJesu usephila ngamandla kithi ngoMoya oNgcwele. Umsebenzi wethu wevangeli egameni likaJesu - kungakhathaliseki ukuthi izwi elinomusa, isandla esiwusizo, indlebe elalelayo, isenzo somhlatshelo sothando, umthandazo wokholo, noma ukulandisa ngesigameko esivela kuJesu - kususa izintaba zokungabaza, udiliza izindonga zenzondo, futhi... Ukwesaba futhi unqobe izinqaba zokuhlubuka nezono.
UNkulunkulu usibusisa ngokukhula kokomoya okuchichimayo njengoba esisondeza kuye. UMsindisi wethu usinike umusa nothando olunjalo. Njengoba esisiza ekwelapheni amanxeba esikhathi esidlule esibuhlungu, usifundisa indlela yokubonisa umusa nothando lwakhe komunye nomunye, kwamanye amaKristu, nasemndenini wethu ongewona amaKristu, abangane, nomakhelwane.
