Ukujongana nokudakumba ngendlela yobuKristu

Iingcebiso ezithile zokuyoyisa ngaphandle kokuphulukana nokuzithemba.
Uxinzelelo sisifo kwaye ukuba ngumKristu akuthethi ukuba soze uhlupheke. Ukholo luyasindisa, kodwa alunyangi; hayi rhoqo, nangayiphi na imeko. Ukholo asilolonyango, ingakumbi iphaneliya okanye umlingo. Nangona kunjalo, iyabonelela, kwabo banomdla wokuyamkela, ithuba lokufumana ukubandezeleka kwakho ngokwahlukileyo kwaye uchonge indlela yethemba, ebaluleke kakhulu kuba uxinzelelo lubeka phantsi ithemba. Apha sibonisa iingcebiso zokulwa loo maxesha anzima kaFr. UJean-François Catalan, ugqirha wezengqondo kunye noJesuit.
Ngaba kuyinto eqhelekileyo ukuluthandabuza ukholo lwakho ude uluyekise xa unexinzelelo?
Uninzi lwabangcwele ababalaseleyo lwadlula kwizithunzi ezingqindilili, obo "busuku bumnyama", njengoko babebabiza njalo uSt. Nabo bakhathazwa kukuphelelwa lithemba, lusizi, ukudinwa kobomi, ngamanye amaxesha ukuya kwinqanaba lokuphelelwa lithemba. U-Saint Alphonsus waseLigouri wachitha ubomi bakhe ebumnyameni ngelixa ethuthuzela imiphefumlo ("Ndisokola esihogweni", wayeza kuthi), njengeCuré of Ars. Ingcwele uTherese yoMntwana uYesu, "udonga lwamhlula eZulwini". Wayengasazi ukuba ukhona na uThixo okanye iZulu. Nangona kunjalo, wayifumana le ngcaciso ngothando. Amaxesha abo obumnyama awabayekisanga ukuwoyisa ngokuxhuma kokholo. Baye bangcwaliswa ngenxa yolo kholo.
Xa udandathekile, usenokuzinikela kuThixo Ngalo mzuzu, imeko yokugula iyatshintsha; kuvuleka intanda eludongeni, nokuba ukubandezeleka kunye nobulolo abupheli. Sisiphumo somzabalazo oqhubekayo. Lukwalubabalo esilunikiweyo. Zimbini iintshukumo. Kwelinye icala, wenza konke onako, nokuba kubonakala kukuncinci kwaye kungasebenzi kakuhle, kodwa uyayenza- uthatha amayeza akho, ubonane nogqirha okanye ugqirha, uzama ukuvuselela ubuhlobo-obunokuthi ngamanye amaxesha kube nzima kakhulu, kuba abahlobo banokuthi Ukushiya, okanye abo basondeleyo kuthi badimazekile. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, unokuthembela kubabalo lukaThixo ukukunceda uzibambe ungakhathazeki.

Ubakhankanyile abangcwele, kodwa uthini ngabantu abaqhelekileyo?
Ewe, umzekelo wabangcwele unokubonakala ukude kakhulu kumava ethu. Sihlala sihlala ebumnyameni obumnyama ngaphezu kobusuku. Kodwa, njengabangcwele, amava ethu asibonisa ukuba bonke ubomi bobuKristu, ngandlela thile, ngumzabalazo: umzabalazo wokungabi nathemba, ngokuchasene neendlela ezahlukeneyo esirhoxa ngazo kuthi, ukuzingca kwethu, ukuphelelwa lithemba kwethu. Lo ngumzabalazo esinawo yonke imihla kwaye uchaphazela wonke umntu.
Ngamnye wethu unomzabalazo wakhe wokujongana nemikhosi yentshabalalo echasene nobomi bokwenyani, nokuba zivela kwizinto zendalo (isifo, usulelo, intsholongwane, umhlaza, njl.), Izizathu zengqondo (naluphi na uhlobo lwenkqubo ye-neurotic, ungquzulwano ubuqu, ukukhathazeka, njl. Gcina ukhumbula ukuba ukudakumba kunokuba nezizathu zomzimba okanye ezengqondo, kodwa kunokuba yinto yokomoya ngokwendalo. Umphefumlo womntu unesilingo, kukho ukuxhathisa, kukho isono. Asinakuthula phambi kwesenzo sikaSathana, umchasi, ozama "ukusikhubekisa endleleni" ukusithintela ukuba sisondele kuThixo. Angasisebenzisa kwimeko yethu yokubandezeleka, ukubandezeleka, uxinzelelo. Ujoliso lwayo kukudimazeka kunye nokuphelelwa lithemba.
Ngaba ukudakumba kunokuba sisono?
Ngokuqinisekileyo akunjalo; sisifo. Ungasiphila isigulo sakho ngokuhamba ngokuthobeka. Xa usezantsi enzonzobileni, uphulukene namanqaku akho ekubhekiswa kuwo kwaye uva kabuhlungu ukuba akukho ndawo onokujikela kuyo, uyaqonda ukuba awunamandla onke kwaye awukwazi ukuzisindisa. Nangona kunjalo, nokuba lelona xesha linzima lokubandezeleka, ukhululekile: unamava okudakumba kwimeko yokuthobeka okanye ukucaphuka. Bonke ubomi bokomoya buthatha inguquko, kodwa oku kuguquka, ubuncinci ekuqaleni, asiyonto ngaphandle kokuguqula umbono, apho sitshintsha khona sijonge kuThixo, sibuyele kuye.Oku kuguqulwa komkhwa sisiphumo ukhetho kunye nomzabalazo. Umntu oxinezelekileyo akaxolelwa koku.
Ingaba esi sifo siyindlela yobungcwele?
Ngokuqinisekileyo. Sikhankanye ngentla imizekelo yeengcwele ezininzi. Kukwakho nabo bonke abantu abagulayo abafihliweyo abangasokuze benziwe bamiselwe ubunyulu kodwa abaphila ngokugula kwabo ebungcweleni. Amagama kaFr. ULouis Beirnaert, ugqirha wengqondo ngonqulo, ulunge kakhulu apha: “Kubomi obubuhlungu nokungaphathwa kakuhle, ubukho obufihliweyo beempawu zenkolo (Ukholo, Ithemba, Isisa) ziyabonakala. Siyazazi ezinye ii-neurotic eziphulukene namandla azo okuqiqa okanye ziye zagqithisa, kodwa ukholo lwazo olulula, olubambe isandla sikaThixo abangasiboniyo ebumnyameni bobusuku, likhanya njengokuqaqamba kukaVincent de Paul! Ngokucacileyo oku kunokusebenza kuye nabani na oxinezelekileyo.
Ngaba le nto uKrestu wadlulela eGetsemane?
Ngendlela ethile, ewe. U-Yesu waziva enxunguphele, enxunguphalo, eshiywe lusizi kakhulu emzimbeni wakhe: "Umphefumlo wam ubuhlungu ngokunzulu, nditsho nasekufeni" (Mateyu 26:38). Ezi ziimvakalelo umntu ngamnye odandathekileyo azivayo. Waye wacela no Bawo ukuba "mayidlule le ndebe" (uMateyu 26:39). Kwakungumzabalazo owoyikekayo kunye nosizi olubi kuye! Kude kube ngumzuzu "wokuguqulwa", xa ukwamkelwa kwafunyanwa: "kodwa hayi njengoko ndifuna, kodwa njengoko uya kwenza" (Mateyu 26:39).
Imvakalelo yokulahlwa iphele ngela xesha wathi, "Thixo wam, Thixo wam, undishiyeleni?" Kodwa uNyana usathi "Thixo wam ..." Esi sisiphazamiso sokugqibela se-Passion: UYesu unokholo kuYise ngalo mzuzu kubonakala ukuba uYise umshiyile. Isenzo sokholo olumsulwa, wakhwaza ebumnyameni bobusuku! Ngamanye amaxesha le yindlela esiphila ngayo. Ngobabalo lwakhe. Ndicela "Nkosi, yiza usincede!"
