Kufungisisa kwezuva: Mwari vakaratidza rudo rwake kuburikidza neMwanakomana
Hakuna munhu muzvokwadi akamboona Mwari kana kumuzivisa, asi iye amene akazviratidza. Uye akazvizivisa mukutenda, uko kwega kunotenderwa kuona Mwari.Chokwadi Mwari, Ishe uye Musiki wezvose, uyo akapa mavambo kune zvese uye akaronga zvese maererano nehurongwa, kwete chete anoda vanhu, asi uyewo mwoyo murefu. Uye aigara akadaro, achiri nanhasi uye achazove: ane rudo, akanaka, anoshivirira, akatendeka; iye oga akanaka chaizvo. Uye ave nepamuviri mumwoyo make chirongwa chikuru uye chisingachinjiki, anochitaurira kuMwanakomana wake chete.
Kune iyo nguva yese, saka, maakachengetedza uye akachengeta zano rake reungwaru muchakavanzika, zvaiita sekunge anga aregeredza isu uye haana kumbofunga isu; asi apo kubudikidza neMwanakomana wake anodiwa akazivisa uye akazivisa izvo zvakagadzirirwa kubva pakutanga, akatipa isu tese pamwechete: kuti tinakidzwe nezvakanaka zvake nekufungisisa nekuzvinzwisisa. Ndiani pakati pedu angatarisira izvi zvese zvakanaka?
Mushure mekuronga zvese mukati make pamwe neMwanakomana, akatibvumidza kusvika panguva yadudzwa kuti tigare pane tsitsi dzehunhu hwakasarudzika uye kuburitswa munzira chaiyo nemafaro nemakaro, tichitevera kuda kwedu. Zvirokwazvo haana kufarira zvivi zvedu, asi akazvitsungirira; akatadza kana kubvumidza nguva iyoyo yezvakaipa, asi akagadzirira nguva iriko yeruramisiro, kuti, tichizviziva isu panguva iyoyo zviri pachena kuti hatina kukodzera kurarama nekuda kwemabasa edu, isu tigova vanokodzera nekuda kwerudo rwake, uye nekuti, mushure mekuratidza yedu isingabviri yekupinda muumambo hwake nesimba redu, isu tinova nekwanisi kuzviita nesimba rake.
Zvino kusaruramisira kwedu pakwakasvika pamugumo uye zvakava pachena kuti kurangwa chete nerufu zvakavakunda semubairo, uye nguva yakatarwa naMwari yakanga yasvika yekuzivisa rudo rwake nesimba (kana runako rukuru nerudo rwe Mwari!), Haana kutivenga, kana kutiramba, kana kutsiva. Asi akatishivirira achishivirira. Netsitsi dzake akatora zvivi zvedu kwaari. Akangozvipira akapa Mwanakomana wake semutengo werudzikinuro rwedu: vatsvene, kune vakaipa, vasina mhosva kune vakaipa, vakarurama kune vasakarurama, vasingaori kune inoora, isingafi kune vanhuwo zvavo. Chii chingadai chakabvisa zvivi zvedu, dai kwaive kururamisira kwake? Tingave sei isu, takatsauka uye vakaipa, takawana kururamisira kana zvisiri muMwanakomana mumwechete waMwari?
O kuchinjana kunotapira, kana chisikwa chisingataurike, kana hupfumi husingafungidzike hwebatsiro: kusarongeka kwevakawanda kwakakanganwirwa munhu akarurama uye kururamisira kweumwe kwakabvisa huipi hwevakawanda!
