Singakugwema kanjani 'ukukhathala ukwenza okuhle'?
"Masingakhathali ukwenza okuhle, ngoba ngesikhathi esifanele sizovuna isivuno uma singayeki" (Galathiya 6: 9).
Siyizandla nezinyawo zikaNkulunkulu lapha eMhlabeni, esibizelwe ukusiza abanye nokubakha. Ngempela, iNkosi ilindele ukuthi sifune ngamabomu izindlela zokukhombisa uthando lwaKhe kubo bobabili esikholwa nabo nakubantu esihlangana nabo emhlabeni nsuku zonke.
Kepha njengabantu, sinamanani amancane kuphela, ngokomzimba, ngokomzwelo nangokwengqondo. Ngakho-ke, noma ngabe isifiso sethu sokukhonza uNkulunkulu siqine kangakanani, ukukhathala kungangena ngemuva kwesikhashana. Futhi uma kubonakala sengathi umsebenzi wethu awenzi mehluko, ukudikibala kungagxila nakho.
Umphostoli uPawulu wayiqonda le nkinga. Wayevame ukuzithola eseduzane kokuphela futhi avume izingqinamba zakhe ngalezo zikhathi eziphansi. Kodwa-ke wayelulama njalo, ezimisele ngokuqhubeka nokulandela ubizo lukaNkulunkulu empilweni yakhe. Unxuse abafundi bakhe ukuba nabo bakhethe okufanayo.
"Futhi ngokubekezela asigijime inkambo ebekelwe thina, sigxilise amehlo ethu kuJesu ..." (Hebheru 12: 1).
Njalo lapho ngifunde izindaba zikaPaul, ngimangazwa amandla akhe okuthola amandla amasha phakathi kokukhathala kanye nokudangala. Uma ngizimisele, ngingafunda ukunqoba ukukhathala njengaye - nawe ungakwenza.
Kusho ukuthini ukuthi "ukhathele futhi wenze kahle"
Igama elikhathele, nokuthi lizwakala kanjani ngokomzimba, lijwayeleke kakhulu kithi. Isichazamazwi seMerriam Webster sikuchaza ngokuthi "kukhathele amandla, ukukhuthazela, ubungqabavu noma ukuqabuleka". Lapho sifika kule ndawo, imizwa engemihle nayo ingavela. Izwi liqhubeka lithi: "ukubekezela okuphelile, ukubekezelelana noma ubumnandi".
Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi izinguqulo ezimbili zeBhayibheli zabaseGalathiya 6: 9 ziveza lokhu kuxhumana. I-Amplified Bible ithi: “Masingakhathali futhi singadangali…”, ne-The Message Bible inikeza lokhu: “Ngakho-ke masingazivumeli ukuthi sikhathale ekwenzeni okuhle. Ngesikhathi esifanele sizovuna isivuno esihle uma singapheli amandla noma siyeke “.
Ngakho-ke njengoba 'senza okuhle' njengoba kwenza uJesu, kudingeka sikhumbule ukulinganisela ukusebenzela abanye ngezikhathi zokuphumula esizinikwe uNkulunkulu.
Umongo waleli vesi
KwabaseGalathiya isahluko 6 babeka izindlela ezithile zokukhuthaza amanye amakholwa njengoba nathi sizibuka.
- Ukulungisa nokubuyisa abafowethu nodadewethu ngokusivikela esilingweni sokona (v. 1)
- Ukuthwalisana izinsimbi (v. 2)
- Ngokungazigqaji ngathi, nangokuziqhathanisa noma ngokuziphakamisa (v. 3-5)
- Ukubonisa ukwazisa kulabo abasisizayo sifunde futhi sikhule okholweni lwethu (v. 6)
- Ukuzama ukukhazimulisa uNkulunkulu kunathi uqobo ngalokho esikwenzayo (v. 7-8)
UPaul uphetha lesi sigaba emavesini 9-10 ngokunxusa ukuthi siqhubeke nokuhlwanyela imbewu enhle, leyo misebenzi emihle eyenziwe egameni likaJesu, noma nini lapho sithola ithuba.
Kwakungubani ukulalelwa kwencwadi yabaseGalathiya, futhi kwaba yini isifundo?
UPaul wabhala le ncwadi emabandleni ayewasungule eningizimu yeGalathiya ohambweni lwakhe lokuqala lobufundisi, mhlawumbe ngenhloso yokulujikeleza phakathi kwabo. Enye yezindikimba eziyinhloko zencwadi inkululeko kuKristu ngokumelene nokunamathela emthethweni wamaJuda. UPawulu wakubhekisa ngqo kubazalwane bamaJuda, iqembu labashisekeli abasesontweni abafundisa ukuthi umuntu kufanele athobele imithetho namasiko amaJuda ngaphezu kokukholelwa kuKristu. Ezinye izingqikithi ezisencwadini zifaka phakathi ukusindiswa ngokukholwa kuphela nomsebenzi kaMoya oNgcwele.
Amasonto athola le ncwadi ayengxube yamaJuda angamaKrestu nabeZizwe. UPawulu wayezama ukuhlanganisa izinhlaka ezehlukene ngokubakhumbuza ngesikhundla sabo esilinganayo kuKristu. Wayefuna ukuthi amazwi akhe alungise noma iyiphi imfundiso engamanga enikeziwe futhi abuyisele eqinisweni levangeli. Umsebenzi kaKristu esiphambanweni wasilethela inkululeko, kepha njengoba abhala, “… ungasebenzisi inkululeko yakho ukwanelisa inyama; kunalokho khonzanani, nithobekile ngothando. Ngoba umthetho wonke ugcwalisekile ngokugcina lo myalo owodwa: 'Thanda umakhelwane wakho njengalokhu uzithanda wena' ”(Galathiya 5: 13-14).
Imiyalo kaPawulu isasebenza nanamuhla njengoba ibinjalo lapho eyibeka ephepheni. Akukho ukushoda kwabantu abaswele abaseduze kwethu futhi nsuku zonke sinethuba lokubabusisa egameni likaJesu.Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba siphume, kubalulekile ukugcina izinto ezimbili engqondweni: Isisusa sethu ukukhombisa uthando lukaNkulunkulu ukuze thola inkazimulo, futhi amandla ethu avela kuNkulunkulu, hhayi indawo esinqunyelwe yona.
Esizoku "vuna" uma siphikelela
Isivuno uPawulu ayeqonde ngaso evesini 9 singumphumela omuhle wesenzo esihle esisenzayo. Futhi noJesu uqobo ukhuluma ngomcabango ongajwayelekile wokuthi lokhu kuvuna kwenzeka kwabanye nakithi ngaphakathi ngasikhathi sinye.
Imisebenzi yethu ingasiza ukuletha isivuno sabakhulekeli emhlabeni.
“Ngokunjalo, ukukhanya kwenu makukhanye phambi kwabanye, ukuze babone imisebenzi yenu emihle, badumise uYihlo osemazulwini” (Mathewu 5:16).
Leyo misebenzi efanayo ingasilethelela isivuno somcebo waphakade.
“Thengisa izinto zakho uphe abampofu. Zinike izikhwama ezingagugi, ingcebo ezulwini engasoze yaphela, lapho kungasondeli sela futhi kungoni nundu. Ngokuba lapho kukhona ingcebo yakho, nenhliziyo yakho iyakuba lapho ”(Luka 12: 33-34).
Leli vesi livela kanjani kithina namuhla?
Iningi lamasonto likhuthele kakhulu enkonzweni futhi linikeza amathuba amahle okwenza imisebenzi emihle ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwezindonga zesakhiwo. Inselelo yendawo ethokozisa kangaka ukuzibandakanya ngaphandle kokuxakaniseka.
Ngibe nokuhlangenwe nakho kokuya esontweni “lokulungiswa kwemisebenzi” futhi ngizithole sengifuna ukujoyina amaqembu amaningi ahlukene. Futhi lokho akubandakanyi imisebenzi emihle ezenzekelayo engingathola ithuba lokuyenza phakathi neviki lami.
Leli vesi lingabonakala njengezaba zokuziqhubekisela phambili phambili noma sesivele siseqile ngokweqile. Kepha amazwi kaPawulu nawo angaba yisixwayiso, asiholele ekutheni sibuze ukuthi "Ngingakhathala kanjani?" Lo mbuzo ungasisiza ukuthi sizibekele imingcele enempilo, senze amandla nesikhathi esisichitha sisebenze kahle futhi sijabule.
Amanye amavesi ezincwadini zikaPawulu asinikeza iziqondiso okufanele sizicabangele:
- Khumbula ukuthi kufanele sikhonze ngamandla kaNkulunkulu.
"Ngingakwenza konke lokhu ngaye ongiqinisayo" (Fil. 4:13).
- Khumbula ukuthi akumele seqe ngaphezu kwalokho uNkulunkulu asibizele ukuba sikwenze.
“… INkosi ibele yilowo nalowo umsebenzi wakhe. Mina ngatshala imbewu, u-Apollo wayinisela, kepha uNkulunkulu wayikhulisa. Ngakho-ke notshalayo kalutho nalowo oniselayo kalutho, kodwa uNkulunkulu kuphela okhulisayo ”(1 Kor. 3: 6-7).
- Khumbula ukuthi izinhloso zethu zokwenza imisebenzi emihle kumele zisuselwe kuNkulunkulu: ukukhombisa uthando lwakhe nokumkhonza.
“Zinikeleni othandweni omunye komunye. Hloniphanani ngaphezu kwenu. Ungalokothi uswele ngentshiseko, kodwa gcina intshiseko yakho engokomoya ngokusebenzela iNkosi ”(KwabaseRoma 12: 10-11).
Yini okufanele siyenze lapho siqala ukuzizwa sikhathele?
Njengoba siqala ukuzizwa sikhathele futhi sidangele, ukuthola ukuthi kungani kuzosisiza ukuthatha izinyathelo ezibonakalayo zokuzisiza. Ngokwesibonelo:
Ingabe ngizizwa ngikhathele ngokomoya? Uma kunjalo, sekuyisikhathi sokuthi "ugcwalise ithangi". Kanjani? UJesu washiya isikhathi sokuba yedwa noBaba Wakhe futhi nathi singenza okufanayo. Isikhathi sokuthula eZwini lakhe nasemthandazweni yizindlela ezimbili nje zokuthola ukuvuselelwa ngokomoya.
Ingabe umzimba wami udinga ukuphumula? Ekugcineni wonke umuntu uphelelwa ngamandla. Yiziphi izimpawu umzimba wakho ezikunikeza zona ukuthi zidinga ukunakwa? Ukuzimisela ukuyeka nokufunda ukwehlisa isikhashana kungasiza kakhulu ekusiqabuleni ngokomzimba.
Ingabe ngizizwa ngicindezelwe yilowo msebenzi? Senzelwe ubudlelwano futhi lokhu kuyiqiniso futhi nangomsebenzi wenkonzo. Ukwabelana ngomsebenzi wethu nabafowethu nodadewethu kuletha ubungani obuhle nomthelela omkhulu emndenini webandla lethu nasemhlabeni osizungezile.
INkosi isibizela empilweni ethokozisayo yokusebenza futhi akukho ukushoda kwezidingo okumele kuhlangatshezwane nazo. KwabaseGalathiya 6: 9, umphostoli uPawulu usikhuthaza ukuba siqhubeke enkonzweni yethu futhi usithembisa izibusiso njengoba nathi senza. Uma sicela, uNkulunkulu uzosikhombisa ukuthi singahlala kanjani sizinikele kulo msebenzi nokuthi sihlala kanjani sinempilo isikhathi eside.
