AMAZWI KAYESU
EGetsemane ndiyazazi izono zabantu bonke. Ke ngoko ndenziwe: isela, umbulala, umkrexezi, ixoki, ukunyelisa, ukunyelisa, ukuvukela uBawo endasoloko ndimthanda. Mna, ndimsulwa, ndimphendulile kuBawo ngokungathi ndenziwe amabala konke ukungcola. Kwaye kule nto, ngokuchanekileyo igazi lam lokufunga liyinto: ngokwahlukileyo kuThando lwam ngoBawo kunye nentando yakhe eyayifuna ukuthatha phezu kwam onke ukubola kwabazalwana bam. Kodwa ndathobela, kude kube ngoku ndithobela kwaye ngenxa yothando lwazo zonke ndizigubungele ngawo onke amabala, ukwenza nje ukuthanda kukaBawo ndikuhlangule kwimbubhiso yaphakade. Akukho mntu uya kuyikholelwa into yokuba ndiye ndaneentlungu ezininzi kunoko endaweni yomnqamlezo, nangona zibuhlungu kwaye zibuhlungu, ngoba ngokucacileyo kwaye ngokunyanzeliswa ndaboniswa ukuba izono zabantu bonke zenziwa ezam kwaye kwafuneka ndiphendule ngazo. Ke mna, ndimsulwa, ndamphendula uBawo ngokungathi ndinetyala lokwenyani. Cinga, ke ngoko, ukuba zingaphi na ngaphezu kobubi bokubulala endibenabo ngobo busuku kwaye, ndikholelwe, akukho mntu unokundinceda ukuba ndive ubunzima obunje, kuba, ngenene, ndibone ukuba ngamnye kuni usebenzela ukundenza into embi ngokufa endinikwayo ngalo lonke ixesha Izikreqo zam endizenzileyo ndihlawule nembuyekezo. Ngaphezulu koko umntu anokuqonda nangaphaya kokucinga, ndaziva ndilahliwe, zintlungu nokufa kum. Akukho bukhulu buninzi onokuthi undixelele bona ngaphezulu koku: ukuba liziko, ujoliso lwazo zonke iziphoso zakho. Ndabazi kakhulu ubunzima bezikreqo ezaziyakwenziwa kuBawo. UbuThixo bam, bethe bathatha ubuntu bam njengesixhobo sabo, sabiwa kukubi obufihla imvukelo kunye nesiphumo sokungathobeli, ukuguqula yonke into ibe kukuzila nokubulawelwa ukholo kuMphefumlo noMzimba. Kodwa umzuzwana omnye ngelingene, ukuncwina kwam okukodwa bekuya kube kukusebenzela ukuhlangulwa ebendithunyelwe ngako; kodwa ndiyandiphindisile ukuncwina, ndolula ubomi bam apha, kuba uBulumko noThando bekufuneka. Nangona kunjalo, ekugqibeleni ndandifuna ukuzomeleza zonke iintlobo zentlupheko ngesiqu sam: Ndayibona yonke into endinayo ukuze ndikhulule kwaye yonke into inamathele kum njengezinto zam. Kwakukho, eGadini, incopho yeentlungu noMntu endandifuna ukuba nguye, ndatsalwa emhlabeni, ndothuka, ndatshiswa emzimbeni. Ingelosi yam yeza kwaye yandivuselela ngokundibonisa iintlungu ezazinokubakhona ezinye izidalwa zam ezithembekileyo ngenxa yokubandezeleka kwam; hayi uzuko lwaboniswa kum kodwa uthando, ububele, umanyano. Le yindlela yokuwufumana kwakhona umphefumlo wam, yindlela endizinike ngayo isiqabu namandla. Ukulila kunye nokulwa, igazi kunye noloyiso, ndazisa ebantwini, abangenambulelo kwaye balibale, kuba ngobo busuku bokuphelelwa lithemba. Ubusuku beNtlangulo, endabeka endaweni yam ngenxa yomoni ngamnye, kodwa, ukongeza koku, bendifuna nokubandakanya iintlungu zabo bonke abantu kwaye ndibandezeleke kakhulu. Sithandwa sam, iGetsemane lulwandle olungenamida, ulwandle ngenceba apho wonke umntu, lonke ityala, zonke iintlungu zixinekile kwaye ndiziva ndinyani: hayi ngendlela yokucinga, konke ukwenzakala okuya kuhla kulomhlaba. Ukuthanda uBawo, ukuthanda abantu, bandenza Ixhoba lokuzithandela. Ukuba omnye wenu ngeNdibonile, ngebhubhile eloyikisiwe kukuphela komzimba endawuthathayo. Kuba yayingelohlobo olunye lokohlwaywa, yayingengomnqweno omnye, kodwa iwaka, lezigidi zeminyaka zonke zanyanzelwa kum. Ndakwazi ukwamkela lonke ityala lakho nayo yonke imbandezelo yakho. Ndim ndedwa okwaziyo ukuziva, ndiyaziva, zonke iintlungu zakho, kuba yayindim nawe. Ubusuku benkxwaleko, ubusuku obumnyama boMphefumlo wam owathi ngokungathandabuzekiyo wadlula kwimithi yomnquma yeGetsemane. U-Bawo walungisa i-Altar apho mna, Ixhoba lakhe, sasiza kuhlanjwa. Kwafuneka ndithathe izono zabanye kwaye Lowo undithumileyo walinda ngobo busuku ukuba anike abantu umlinganiso wothando lwaKho, kunye nedini elipheleleyo lam, lo Nyana wakhe kunye nesiDalwa sakhe sokuqala. Ezantsi apho phakathi kwemithi yeminquma yeGetsemane, isono samadoda sahlulwa ngokuqinisekileyo kuba yayikuloo ndawo endazihlisela yona ndaza ndaphumelela. Kuyinyani ukuba ukuncwina umntu omnye emhlabeni bekuya kuba kukwanela ukuhlangula wonke umntu, kodwa kuyinyani ukuba umsebenzi ugqityiwe xa ufikelela kwincopho, ngokungathi uyithetha loo nto, ngokusekwe ukuba ndiyakubhatala wonke umntu ngokuzithoba kwiPassion, kuphela ngoKuphelelwa apho yayinokwenzeka ukufezekisa injongo efunwa nguBawo. Ngapha koko, ukubaluleka kwakungaphelelanga kum, nantoni na endiyenzileyo, nangona kunjalo i-Divine iya kufuna ukuthotywa kwam phantsi kwesandla Sakhe esinamandla, ngokugqibezela umsebenzi Wakhe kunye nomsebenzi wam: ke ngeGetssemani inxenye yokuqala yale nto izakugcwaliseka kwaye eyona nto iphambili. Ngokuthe ngcembe, phantse ngaphandle kwamandla, ndiye ndafika ndema ezinyaweni zeso sibingelelo sam esasisondele ekuzakuqala ukugqitywa. Bunjani ukuba busuku! Olunjani usizi, entliziyweni yam, kwingcinga, kumbono owoyikisayo wezono zabantu! Ndilukhanyiselo, ndibona ubumnyama bodwa; NdinguMlilo kwaye ndaziva ndineqhwa nje kuphela; NdiluThando kwaye ndiziva kuphela ukuswela uthando; Ndilungile, ndiziva ndedwa; NdinguNwabisa kwaye ndandinosizi kuphela, ndinguThixo kwaye ndizibona ndibamb 'umbungu, ndinguye uKrestu, uMthanjiswa kaBawo kwaye ndizibone ndindedwa kwaye ndisoyika, ndiye ndangumnandi kwaye ndaziva ndikrakra kuphela; Ndandingumgwebi kwaye ndasokola isigwebo, isigwebo sakho; Ndandingoyena uyingcwele, kodwa ndiphathwa njengesona sono sikhulu; NdinguYesu, kodwa ndaziva ndibizwa kuphela ngamagama engcikivo kaSathana; Ndilixhoba lokuzithandela, kodwa imeko yam yobuntu yandenza ndaziva ndinobungangamsha kunye nobuthathaka kwaye ndacela ukuba kususwe konke ukubandezeleka endikufumeneyo; ewe, bendiyiNdoda yazo zonke iintlungu ezibalekileyo kulonwabo lokuzinikela endilwenzileyo ngothutho lonke lwaphezulu. Kwaye zonke ezi zinto, ngoba? Senditshilo kuwe ukuba bendinguwe, ngokuba ungowam. Intliziyo yam ... Owu! Enjani yona ingqumbo yenzonzobila evalelweyo! Kwaye kude kangakanani ke abo bakholelwa ukuba bayayazi kuphela kuba becinga ngeentlungu zomzimba wam! Jonga iGetsemane, jonga kum ngaphandle kweGadi kwaye udibane nam! Ndibuyela kuwe namhlanje ukuze ndikukhumbuze ukuba ujonge ebusweni bam obuLusizi, ukujonga ngakumbi ukubila kweGazi lam. Awunomdla kakhulu kule Nto ingaziwayo? Ngaba awucingi ukuba ndifanele ukuqwalaselwa ngakumbi, kunikwa ingqalelo engcono? Anime sithandwa sam! Buyela eGetsemane, ubuye nam ebumnyameni, zintlungu, uvelwano, kuthando lubuhlungu! Kwaye wena, unjani ngoku? Ngaba ucinga ukuba ndikwenza ufane nam? Nawe ungawabeka ngamadolo akho emhlabeni wombingelelo wakho kwaye uthi Nam: Bawo, ukuba kunokwenzeka, yishenxise le ndebe kum: kodwa ke, ungayenzi eyam, kodwa intando yakho. Kwaye xa sele uthe "fiat" ngokuqiniseka okusondeleyo, ke yonke into iyakuphela kwaye uya kuhlaziywa kuNtando yam. Jonga eGetsemane, jonga kum ndingenzanga, eGadini kwaye udibane nam! Ke mna, ukubandezeleka okukhona, kuya kuba mnandi kakhulu kum, ukuba uyandiqonda iintlungu zam. Ungoyiki ukungena neGetsemane nam: Ngena ubone. Ukuba, ke, ndiza kuthatha inxaxheba kuxinzelelo olubuthathaka kunye nesizungu, uziqwalasele izipho zam eziyinyani kwaye awuzukuphulukana nazo, kodwa ngam uthi: Bawo, hayi ukuthanda kwam, kodwa okwakho makwenziwe!
