"Kuyambira masiku a Yohane M'batizi kufikira tsopano, Ufumu wa Kumwamba wavutidwa, ndipo achiwawa awulanda". Mateyu 11:12
Kodi iwe uli m'gulu la omwe ali "achiwawa" ndipo akulanda Ufumu wa Kumwamba "mokakamiza?" Tikukhulupirira muli!
Nthawi ndi nthawi mawu a Yesu ndi ovuta kuwamvetsa. Ndime ili pamwambayi ikutipatsa chimodzi mwazochitika. Pa ndimeyi, a St. Josemaria Escrivá akunena kuti "achiwawa" ndi akhristu omwe ali ndi "mphamvu" komanso "olimba mtima" pomwe malo omwe amapezeka akupikisana ndi chikhulupiriro (onani Khristu Akudutsa, 82). Saint Clement waku Alexandria akuti Ufumu Wakumwamba ndi "wa iwo omwe amadzikanira okha" (Quis dives salvetur, 21). Mwanjira ina, "achiwawa" omwe akutenga Ufumu Wakumwamba ndi omwe amamenya nkhondo molimba mtima kwa adani a moyo wawo kuti akapeze Ufumu Wakumwamba.
Kodi adani a moyo ndi chiyani? Pachikhalidwe chathu timakamba za dziko lapansi, thupi ndi mdierekezi. Adani atatuwa abweretsa chiwawa chachikulu m'mitima ya akhristu omwe akuyesetsa kukhala mu Ufumu wa Mulungu. Ndiye timamenyera bwanji Ufumuwo? Mwa mphamvu! Mabaibulo ena amati "achifwamba" akutenga Ufumuwu mokakamiza. Izi zikutanthauza kuti moyo wachikhristu sungangokhala chabe. Sitingangomwetulira panjira yopita kumwamba. Adani a moyo wathu ndi enieni ndipo ndi achiwawa. Chifukwa chake, tiyeneranso kukhala aukali mwanjira yoti tiyenera kulimbana ndi adani amenewa molimbika ndi kulimbika mtima kwa Khristu.
Kodi timachita bwanji izi? Timakumana ndi mdani wa thupi ndi kusala ndi kudzikana. Tikukumana ndi dziko lapansi pokhala okhazikika mu chowonadi cha Khristu, chowonadi cha uthenga wabwino, pokana kutsatira "nzeru" zam'badwo uno. Ndipo tikukumana ndi mdierekezi pozindikira malingaliro ake oyipa kuti atinyenge, kutisokoneza ndi kutisokeretsa mu chilichonse kuti timukalipira ndikukana machitidwe ake m'moyo wathu.
Lingalirani, lero, pakuyitana kwanu kuti mukhale olimba mtima komanso olimba mtima kuti muthane ndi adani omwe akuukira mkati. Mantha ndi opanda ntchito pankhondo imeneyi. Kudalira mphamvu ndi chifundo cha Ambuye wathu Yesu Khristu ndiye chida chokha chomwe tikufunikira. Dalirani pa iye ndipo musapereke njira zambiri zomwe adani akuyesayesa kukulandani mtendere wa Khristu.
Ambuye wanga waulemerero ndi wopambana, ndikudalira inu kutsanulira chisomo chanu kuti ndikhoze kulimbana ndi dziko lapansi, ziyeso za thupi langa ndi mdierekezi mwiniwake. Ndipatseni kulimbika mtima, kulimba mtima ndi kulimba mtima kuti ndithe kumenya nkhondo yabwino yachikhulupiriro ndipo osazengereza kukufunani Inu ndi chifuniro chanu choyera kwambiri pa moyo wanga. Yesu ndikukhulupirira mwa inu.
