Ubizo lukaYesu: ubomi obufihliweyo
“Uyithathaphi le ndoda yonke le nto? Luhlobo luni lobulumko anikwe lona? Enjani yona imisebenzi yamandla ayenzileyo ngezandla zakhe! "UMarko 6: 2
Abantu ababemazi uYesu kwasebutsheni bakhe ngequbuliso babemangaliswa bubulumko bakhe kunye nemisebenzi yamandla. Bakhwankqiswa yiyo yonke into awayeyithetha nawayenzayo. Babemazi njengoko wayekhula, ebazi abazali bakhe kunye nezinye izalamane kwaye, ngenxa yoko, wakufumanisa kunzima ukuqonda indlela ummelwane wabo ngequbuliso wayenomtsalane ngamazwi nakwizenzo zakhe.
Inye into eyityhilayo kukuba xa uYesu wayekhula, kubonakala ukuba wayephila ubomi obufihlakeleyo. Kucacile ukuba abantu bedolophu yakhe babengazi ukuba ngumntu okhethekileyo. Oku kucacile kuba xa uYesu wayeqala ukushumayela esidlangalaleni ngokushumayela nokwenza imisebenzi yamandla, abantu besixeko sakowabo babedidekile bade bamangaliswa. Babengayilindelanga yonke lento "kuYesu waseNazarete." Ke ngoko, kucacile ukuba kwiminyaka yakhe yokuqala engamashumi amathathu, wayephila ubomi obuqhelekileyo kunye obuqhelekileyo bemihla ngemihla.
Yintoni esinokuyithatha kolu lwazi? Okokuqala, ityhila ukuba, ngamanye amaxesha, ukuthanda kukaThixo ngathi kukuba siphile ubomi obuqhelekileyo “obuqhelekileyo”. Kulula ukucinga ukuba masenzele uThixo “izinto ezinkulu.” Ewe kuyinyani. Kodwa izinto ezinkulu asibizela kuzo ngamanye amaxesha zihlala nje ubomi obuqhelekileyo bemihla ngemihla. Alithandabuzeki elokuba ngexesha lokufihlwa kukaYesu waphila ubomi obugqibeleleyo. Kodwa ke abaninzi kwisixeko sakowabo zange bakuqonde oku. Kwakungekabikho ukuthanda kukaBawo ukuba ubuhle bakhe bubonakaliswe kubo bonke abantu.
Okwesibini, siyabona ukuba ngokwenene lalikhona ixesha apho umsebenzi wakhe watshintsha. Intando kaBawo, ngomzuzwana wobomi bakhe, yayiza kuthi gqi kuluntu ngokubanzi. Kwaye xa oko kusenzeka, abantu baqaphela.
Ezi zinto ziyinyani nakuwe. Uninzi lubizwa ukuba luphile imihla ngemihla ngendlela efihliweyo. Yazi ukuba ngala maxesha apho ubizelwe ukuba ukhule ngendlela elungileyo, wenze izinto ezincinci ezifihliweyo kakuhle, kwaye wonwabele isantya esizolileyo sobomi obuqhelekileyo. Kodwa kuya kufuneka uqaphele ukuba kungenzeka ukuba uThixo, amaxesha ngamaxesha, akubize uphume kwindawo yakho yokunethezeka kwaye enze ngendlela yoluntu. Isitshixo kukuhlala ulungile kwaye ukhumbula ukuthanda kwakhe kunye nesicwangciso esenzelwe wena. Yilungele kwaye uzimisele ukuyivumela ukuba isetyenziswe ngendlela entsha ukuba kuyintando yakhe yobuthixo.
Cinga namhlanje ngentando kaThixo ngobomi bakho ngoku. Ufuna ntoni kuwe? Ngaba uyakubiza uphume kwindawo yakho yokuthuthuzela ukuze uphile ubomi baseburhulumenteni ngakumbi? Okanye ngaba uyakubiza, ngoku, ukuba uphile ubomi obufihlakele ngakumbi ngelixa ukhula ngobuhle? Yibani nombulelo ngayo nayiphi na into ukuthanda kwakhe kunye nokwamkela ngentliziyo iphela.
