Cinga namhlanje ngomnqweno wakho wokufunda okungakumbi ngoThixo
Kodwa uHerode wathi: “UYohane ndimnqumle intloko. Ngubani ke lo ndiva ezi zinto ngaye? Kwaye wazama ukumbona. ULuka 9: 9
UHerode usifundisa okubi kunye neempawu ezintle. Abantu ababi bacacile. UHerode waphila ubomi obunesono kwaye, ekugqibeleni, ubomi bakhe obungalunganga babangela ukuba anqunyulwe intloko uSt. Kodwa esi Sibhalo singentla sityhila uphawu olunomdla ekufuneka sizame ukuluxelisa.
UHerode wayenomdla kuYesu, kuba wayefuna ukumbona, satsho isibhalo. Ngelixa oku ekugqibeleni kungakhokelelanga ekubeni uHerode amkele umyalezo wokuqala kaJohn uMbhaptizi kwaye aguquke, yayilinyathelo lokuqala eli.
Ngenxa yokusilela kwesigama esingcono, mhlawumbi singabiza lo mnqweno kaHerode "ukwazi okungcwele." Wayeyazi ukuba kukho into eyahlukileyo ngoYesu kwaye wayefuna ukuyiqonda. Wayefuna ukwazi ukuba ungubani uYesu kwaye wayenomdla kwisigidimi sakhe.
Nangona sonke sibizelwe ukuba siye kude kakhulu kunoHerode ekukhangeleni inyaniso, sinokwazi ukuba uHerode ngummeli olungileyo wabaninzi kuluntu lwethu. Abaninzi banomdla kwiVangeli nakuko konke okuboniswa lukholo lwethu. Baphulaphula ngomdla xa kuthethwa ngupopu nangendlela iCawa esabela ngayo kwizenzo zokungabikho sikweni ehlabathini. Ngapha koko, uluntu luphela luhlala lusigweba kwaye lusigxeke kunye nenkolo yethu. Kodwa oku kusatyhila uphawu lomdla wakhe kunye nomnqweno wakhe wokuva ukuba uthini na uThixo, ngakumbi ngeCawe yethu.
Cinga ngezinto ezimbini namhlanje. Okokuqala, cinga ngomnqweno wakho wokufunda ngakumbi. Kwaye xa ufumanisa lo mnqweno musa ukuma apho. Makhe ndikusondeze kumyalezo weNkosi yethu. Okwesibini, nikela ingqalelo "kukuthanda ukwazi okungcwele" kwabo bakungqongileyo. Mhlawumbi ummelwane, ilungu losapho, okanye umntu osebenza naye ubonakalisile umdla kwinto okholwayo nakwinto ethethwa yiCawe yethu. Xa umbona, bathandazele kwaye ucele uThixo ukuba akusebenzise njengoko Wenzayo nomBhaptizi ukuzisa umyalezo wakhe kubo bonke abamfunayo.
Nkosi, ndincede ndikukhangele kuyo yonke into, nangawo wonke umzuzu. Xa ubumnyama busondela, ndincede ndifumane ukukhanya okutyhilileyo. Emva koko ndincede ndizise olo khanyiso kwihlabathi elinentswelo enkulu. UYesu ndiyakholelwa kuwe.
