Ngokugula ngengqondo kusapho lwam, ndinomdla wokwazi umxhasi kubo bonke ababebandezelekile: U-Benedict Joseph Labre oNgcwele.
UBenedetto wayengumdala kubantwana abayi-15, owazalwa ngo-1748 eFrance. Ukusukela ebuntwaneni wazinikezela kuThixo kwaye engenamdla kwizinto eziqhelekileyo zobuntwana.
Ebonwa engaqhelekanga, waguqukela kwiSigramente Esikelelweyo, uMama wethu osikelelweyo, iRosari kunye neOfisi eNgcwele kwaye wathandazela ukuba amkelwe kumzi woonongendi. Ngaphandle kokuzinikezela kwakhe, wamkelwa kaninzi-ninzi ngenxa yokuqina kwakhe kwaye ngokuyinxenye ngenxa yokungabikho kwemfundo. Ukuphoxeka kwakhe kwakujolise ekuhambeni ukusuka kwindlu engcwele ukuya kwenye, echitha iintsuku kunqulo kwiicawa ezahlukeneyo.
Wayephethwe kukungakhathali kunye nempilo enkenenkene, kodwa ukwazi ukuba ubonwa njengowahlukileyo akuzange kumthintele kuthando olukhulu lokulunga. Wenza izinto ezintle ezaziza "kwenza umphefumlo wakhe ube ngumzekelo ogqibeleleyo kunye nekopi yoMsindisi Wethu Oyingcwele, uYesu Krestu," ngokutsho kombhali wakhe wobomi, uBawo Marconi, owayenguye ungcwele. Ekugqibeleni waziwa kuso sonke isixeko "njengomngqibi waseRoma".
Utata uMarconi ugxininisa ubumoya bakhe ebomini njengomntu oye wamkela uYesu Krestu. UBenedict wathi "ngenye indlela kufanele ukuba sizifumane iintliziyo ezintathu, siqhubeke kwaye sigxile kwenye; Oko kukuthi, omnye kuThixo, omnye ngommelwane kwaye owesithathu ngowakhe ".
U-Benedict uqinisekisile ukuba "intliziyo yesibini kufuneka ithembeke, ibe nesisa kwaye izaliswe luthando kwaye ivuthe uthando ngommelwane". Simele sihlale sikulungele ukumkhonza; soloko ukhathalela umphefumlo wommelwane wethu. Ubuyele kumazwi kaBenedict: "uqeshwe ngokuncwina nangokuthandazela inguquko yaboni kunye nokukhulula abathembekileyo".
Intliziyo yesithathu, u-Benedict uthe, "kufuneka izinze kwizigqibo zayo zokuqala, ingqongqo, ifile, inenzondelelo kwaye inesibindi, iqhubeke nokuzinikela njengedini kuThixo".
Kwiinyanga ezimbalwa emva kokusweleka kukaBenedict, eneminyaka engama-35 ngo-1783, yayili-136 imimangaliso eyathi yabangelwa kukumlamlela kwakhe.
