Ukuzinikela kwemini: umthandazo ngokuchasene nokungavisisani
"Umhlobo uhlala ethanda." --IMizekeliso 17:17
Ngelishwa, ngexesha lonyulo lwezopolitiko, sikubonile ukuwa kwabantu abadala phakathi kwabahlobo kunye nezihlobo eziye zakufumanisa kunzima, ukuba akunakwenzeka, ukungavumelani kwezopolitiko kwaye zihlale zingabahlobo. Ndinamalungu osapho ahlala kude kuba ndingumKristu. Mhlawumbi nawe unjalo. Sonke sinelungelo kwiinkolelo zethu, kodwa akufuneki ziphelise ubudlelwane bethu, ubuhlobo, okanye ubudlelwane bosapho. Ubuhlobo kufuneka ibe yindawo ekhuselekileyo yokungavumelani. Ukuba unabahlobo abaninzi, uya kuba nezimvo ezahlukeneyo. Unokufunda omnye komnye.
Kwiqela elincinci lezibini zethu, siqala ukutshintshiselana okunzima ngeembono, kodwa sihlala sisazi ukuba ekupheleni kweqela siya kuthandaza, senze ikhekhe kunye nekofu kunye kwaye sishiye njengabahlobo. Emva kwengokuhlwa yeengxoxo ezishushu kakhulu, omnye umntu wathandazela ukubulela ukuba sihloniphane ngokwaneleyo ukuba sikwazi ukuveza izimvo zethu elubala, kodwa sigcine ubuhlobo. Sisengabahlobo kuKristu, nangona singavumelani ngemicimbi ethile yokomoya. Asivumelani kuba sifuna omnye umntu avume ukuba silungile. Ngamanye amaxesha sinomdla wokulunga kunokuba "inyaniso yethu" incede omnye umntu. Umtshana wam wayezama ukwabelana noYesu nabahlobo bakhe beenkolo ezahlukeneyo, kwaye baphela bengavisisani. Ndibuze umtshana wam ukuba ngaba inkuthazo yakhe yayiyimfesane kusini na kukhuseleko lomhlobo wakhe okanye umnqweno wokuba ulungile. Ukuba ibilusindiso lwabo, kuya kufuneka athethe ngenzondelelo malunga nendlela amthanda ngayo uYesu kwaye naye emthanda. Ukuba wayefuna nje ukunyaniseka, wayejolise ngakumbi kwindlela ukholo lwabo olwalungalunganga ngayo kwaye yabenza baphambana. Wavuma ukuba kungasebenza ngakumbi ukubabonisa uthando lukaYesu kunokuzama ukuphumelela. Abahlobo bethu kunye nosapho baya kulwazi uthando lukaYesu wethu ngothando esibabonisa lona.
Thandaza nam: Nkosi yam, uSathana uzama ngamandla akhe onke ukwahlula indlu yakho nabantu bakho. Sithandaza eNkosini ngawo onke amandla ethu ukuba singakuvumeli oku ukuba kwenzeke. Masikhumbule ukuba indlu eyahluleleneyo ayinakusinceda ukuba sibe ngabantu abanoxolo kubudlelwane bethu, ubuhlobo kunye neentsapho, ngaphandle kokugoba okanye ukuphazamisa iNyaniso. Kwaye, Nkosi, ukuba kuyabakho abo bakhetha ukungabi zizihlobo zethu okanye ubudlelwane nathi, jonga ngokuchasene nentliziyo ekrakra kwaye usikhumbuze ukuba sithandazele ukuthamba kwentliziyo yabo. Sithandaza egameni likaYesu. Amen.
