Ukuzindla kosuku: ukuqonda izimfihlakalo zesibhakabhaka
“Anikaqondi noma anikaqondi okwamanje? Ingabe izinhliziyo zenu zilukhuni? Unamehlo yini, awuboni, unezindlebe, futhi ungezwa? ”UMarko 8: 17-18 Ungayiphendula kanjani le mibuzo uJesu ayibuze abafundi bakhe uma ekubuza? Kudinga ukuthobeka ukuvuma ukuthi namanje awuqondi noma awuqondi, ukuthi inhliziyo yakho ilukhuni nokuthi awukwazi ukubona nokuzwa konke lokho uNkulunkulu akwembulile. Vele kunamazinga ahlukahlukene kulezi zimpi, ngakho-ke ngethemba lokuthi awulwa nawo ngezinga elibucayi. Kepha uma ungavuma ngokuthobeka ukuthi ulwa nalokhu ngezinga elithile, lokho kuzithoba nokwethembeka kuzokuzuzela umusa omkhulu. UJesu wabuza le mibuzo kubafundi bakhe kumongo omkhulu wengxoxo mayelana nemvubelo yabaFarisi noHerode. Wayazi ukuthi “imvubelo” yalaba baholi yayifana nemvubelo eyonakalisa abanye. Ukungathembeki kwabo, ukuziqhenya kwabo, isifiso sabo sokuhlonishwa nokunye okunjalo kube nomthelela omubi okholweni lwabanye. Ngakho-ke ngokubuza le mibuzo engenhla, uJesu waphonsela abafundi bakhe inselelo yokuthi babone lemvubelo embi bese beyenqaba.
Imbewu yokungabaza nokudideka isizungezile. Kulezi zinsuku kubukeka sengathi cishe yonke into okhuthazwa yizwe lezwe ngandlela thile iphikisana noMbuso kaNkulunkulu.Kodwa, njengokwehluleka kwabafundi ukubona imvubelo embi yabaFarisi noHerode, nathi kaningi sihluleka ukubona imvubelo embi emphakathini wethu. Esikhundleni salokho, ake sivumele amaphutha amaningi asidide futhi asiholele endleleni yokukholelwa ezweni. Into eyodwa okufanele isifundise lokhu ukuthi ukuthi umuntu unohlobo oluthile lwegunya noma amandla emphakathini akusho ukuthi ungumholi oqotho futhi ongcwele. Futhi yize kungewona neze umsebenzi wethu ukwahlulela inhliziyo yomunye umuntu, kumele sibe nazo "izindlebe zokuzwa" futhi "namehlo okubona" amaphutha amaningi athathwa njengamnandi emhlabeni wethu. Kumele sizame njalo "ukuqonda nokuqonda" imithetho kaNkulunkulu futhi siyisebenzise njengesiqondiso esiphikisana namanga asemhlabeni. Indlela ebalulekile yokuqinisekisa ukuthi sikwenza kahle ukuqinisekisa ukuthi izinhliziyo zethu azilokothi zilukhuni iqiniso. Cabanga namuhla ngale mibuzo yeNkosi yethu futhi uyihlolisise ikakhulukazi kumongo omkhulu womphakathi wonkana. Cabanga "ngemvubelo" yamanga efundiswa ngumhlaba wethu nangabantu abaningi abasezikhundleni. Wenqabe la maphutha bese uphinda uhlangabeza ngokuphelele izimfihlakalo ezingcwele zaseZulwini ukuze lawo maqiniso kanye namaqiniso kukodwa abe ngumhlahlandlela wakho wansuku zonke. Ngisize ngibhekise amehlo nezindlebe zami kulelo Qiniso nsuku zonke ukuze ngibone imvubelo embi engizungezile. Nginike ukuhlakanipha nesipho sokuqonda, Nkosi ethandekayo, ukuze ngizicwilise ezimfihlakalweni zempilo yakho engcwele. Jesu ngiyakholelwa kuwe.
