Ukuba ufuna ukuphiliswa, khangela uYesu phakathi kwesihlwele
Isiqendu seVangeli kaMarko 6,53-56 sichaza ukufika kuka uJesu nabafundi bakhe eGennario, isixeko esikunxweme olusempuma yoLwandle lwaseGalili. Esi sicatshulwa sifutshane seVangeli sinikela ingqalelo ekuphilisweni kwabagulayo okwenziwa nguYesu ebudeni bokuhlala kwakhe kweso sixeko.
Isiqendu siqala ngenkcazo yokufika kukaYesu nabafundi bakhe eGennario emva kokuwela inqanawa ULwandle lwaseGalili. Xa abantu beso sixeko babuqondayo ubukho bukaYesu, baqalisa ukuthontelana besuka mbombo zone, bethwele abagulayo nabagulayo kwiilitha nakwiikhaphethi. Isihlwele sikhulu kangangokuba uYesu akakwazi nokutya.
Owokuqala weza kuye yinkazana ebinokopha iminyaka elishumi elinamibini. Lo mfazi, ekholelwa ukuba uYesu unokumphilisa, uya ngasemva aze achukumise ingubo yakhe. Ngoko nangoko uvakalelwa kukuba uphilisiwe. UYesu uyajika abuze ukuba ngubani omchukumisileyo. Abafundi bayamphendula besithi isihlwele simngqongile macala onke, kodwa uyaqonda ukuba kukho umntu ochukumise ingubo yakhe ngokholo. Emva koko, lo mfazi uzibonakalisa kuYesu, umxelela ibali lakhe aze athi kuye: “Ntombi, ukholo lwakho lukuphilisile. Hamba ngoxolo, uphile kwimbandezelo yakho.
Funa uYesu ngemithandazo
Emva kokuphilisa lo mfazi, uYesu uyaqhubeka ephilisa abagulayo nabagulayo abaziswe kuye. Abantu besixeko baqalisa ukuzisa abantu babo abagulayo bephuma kuzo zonke iindawo, benethemba lokuba iya kubaphilisa. Kwiimeko ezininzi, kwanele ukuchukumisa ingubo yakhe ukuze aphiliswe, njengakwimeko yomfazi owophayo. UYesu uyaqhubeka ephilisa abagulayo de litshone ilanga.
Ukholo lunokuba yintuthuzelo kwabo batyhubela ixesha elinzima. UYesu wathembisa ukuba uya kuba nathi ngamaxesha onke, nakwezona zihlandlo zobumnyama ebomini bethu. Usimema ukuba simthembe size sikholose ngaye. Xa sizithemba, lusamkela njengoko sinjalo kwaye lusinceda soyise iingxaki zethu.
Umthandazo yindlela esebenzayo yokunxibelelana noYesu singamcela ukuba aphiliswe amanxeba nezigulo zethu. UYesu wathi: “Celani nophiwa; funani nofumana; nkqonkqozani novulelwa. Uyasikhuthaza ukuba sicele ngokholo kwaye sikholwe ukuba nguYe kuphela onokuyiphendula imithandazo yethu.
