Lapho abantu besibuza ukuthi uyini umgomo wenkonzo yethu yomndeni, impendulo yethu ilula: ukubuswa komhlaba!
Ukuhlekisa eceleni, ukufinyelela emhlabeni jikelele yilokho esikufunayo ngeNkosi yethu neBandla lakhe: ukuletha konke kuKristu ngothando nokuguquka. Ukuzibandakanya kwethu kulokhu kuhlenga kuqala kuqala ngokumemezela uJesu Kristu njengeNkosi futhi siphile ngokufanele. Emndenini, lobu bukhosi buphilwa uthando: uthando oluphakathi kwabashadikazi nawo wonke amalungu omndeni ageleza uthando lweNkosi. Lapho luhlala ngokweqiniso, lolu thando lufakazi olunamandla lobuvangeli futhi lungaletha imiphefumulo eminingi kuKristu.
Luqala kuphi lolu hlelo "lokubuswa komhlaba"? UJesu wakwenza kwaba lula ngokusinika ukuzinikela enhliziyweni yakhe eNgcwele.
Lapho umndeni ubeka isithombe senhliziyo kaJesu enothando endaweni yokuhlonipha ngaphakathi kwekhaya labo, futhi lapho ilungu ngalinye lomndeni linikela ngenhliziyo yakhe kuJesu, ngokubuya ubanikeza inhliziyo yakhe. Umphumela walokhu kuguqulwa kothando ukuthi uJesu angaguqula imishado yabo kanye nomndeni wabo. Ingashintsha inhliziyo. Futhi kwenza konke lokhu kulabo abamemezela futhi abathi bayinkosi yomndeni enhle, enesihe futhi enothando. Njengoba uPapa Pius XI asho, "Ngokweqiniso, (lokhu kuzinikela) kuholela izingqondo zethu kalula ukuze sazi uKristu iNkosi ngokusondele nangaphezulu futhi siguqule izinhliziyo zethu ukuba zimthande kakhulu futhi simlingise ngokuphelele" (Miserentissimus Redemptor 167 ).
Kuvela kuphi ukuzinikela enhliziyweni eNgcwele kaKristu? Phakathi kuka-1673 no-1675, uJesu wabonakala kuSanta Margherita Maria Alacoque futhi emembulela inhliziyo yakhe eyi-Sacred, evutha uthando lwesintu. Umtshele ukuthi ngolwesiHlanu wokuqala ngemuva kweholide leCorpus Christi kufanele abekwe eceleni ukuze ahloniphe iNhliziyo yakhe Engcwele futhi alungise bonke abangamthandi futhi abamhloniphe. Lokhu kuzinikela kwasabalala njengomlilo phakathi kwamaKristu futhi kungaphikiswa ukuthi kwaqala ukusebenza kuphela njengoba iminyaka yayihamba.
Kulo nyaka, iqembu liba ngoJuni 19. Leli yithuba elihle lokuthi imindeni ihlole ubudlelwano bayo neNkosi bese iqala ukwenza konke ngenxa yokumthanda. UJesu wanikeza uSanta Margherita Maria izethembiso eziningi ukuze athande inhliziyo yakhe eNgcwele, futhi lezi zigcizelelwa "Izithembiso Ezi-12 Zenhliziyo Engcwele".
"UMhlengi wethu ngokwakhe uthembise uSanta Margaret uMariya ukuthi bonke labo abayohlonipha iNhliziyo yakhe eNgcwele bazothola ubukhazikhazi obuningi basezulwini" (MR 21). Lezi zinsizi ziletha ukuthula emindenini, zibaduduze ebunzimeni futhi zithela izibusiso eziningi kuyo yonke imizamo yazo. Konke lokhu kungenxa yokuthi bambeke esihlalweni sobukhosi endaweni yakhe esemthethweni njengeNkosi yomndeni!
Ngabe konke lokhu kuhlobene kanjani nomdlalo? Owesifazane ohlakaniphe kakhulu wake wathi kithi, "Uma ufuna ukuthandaza nezingane zakho, okokuqala kufanele udlale nazo." Ngemuva kokubheka ulwazi lwethu njengabazali, sabona ukuthi lokhu kuyiqiniso.
Kunezindlela eziningi lapho ukudlala kudlala khona kuvula inhliziyo nengqondo yengane kuNkulunkulu. Ngobudlelwano bethu bemvelo nezingane zethu lapho sakha izithombe zazo zokuqala zikaNkulunkulu. "Uthando lwabo lwabazali lubizelwe ukuba yilowo nalowo izingane uphawu olubonakalayo lothando lukaNkulunkulu uqobo ", okuvela kuyo yonke imindeni ezulwini nasemhlabeni igama lawo" "(Familiaris Consortio 14). Ukufaka umfanekiso kaNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yengane kuyisibopho esikhulu kubazali, kepha njengoba uJohn Paul ayethanda ukumemezela, akumelwe sesabe! UNkulunkulu uzosinika wonke umusa esiwudingayo uma sicela wona.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, lapho sidlala, sibamba iqhaza emisebenzini yokuzijabulisa: siyaziphindisela. Umdlalo usisiza sonke ukukhumbula ukuthi singobani ngempela nokuthi senzelwe ini. Asenzelwanga ukuba sibe sodwa, kodwa ukuxhumana nabanye. Senzelwe ukuhlangana futhi kulokhu singathola injabulo nenhloso, kanye nezingane zethu.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, asenzelwanga ukusebenza kanzima: senziwa senjabulo. UNkulunkulu wayehlose ukusenza siphumule futhi sijabulele umhlaba asenzele wona. Ngokombono wengane, ukudlala nabazali bayo kuyajabulisa ngempela.
Emidlalweni, siqinisa ukuxhumana nezingane zethu, okujulisa ukuzizwa kwazo, okungukuthi kithina futhi ngisho nokukaNkulunkulu. Bafundise ukuthi banendawo nomazisi. Lesi akusiso yini isifiso sezinhliziyo zethu zonke? Ingane yakho ingakholelwa kalula ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyayithanda ngoba uyithanda. Yilokhu umdlalo okuxhumana.
Futhi ekugcineni, ngokombono wabazali, lo mdlalo usikhumbuza ukuthi kunjani ukuba yizingane nokuthi ukufana nezingane yinto ebalulekile yomkhuleko. UJesu wakwenza kwacaca lokhu lapho ethi: "Ngaphandle kokuthi uguquke ube njengabantwana, awusoze wangena embusweni wezulu" (UMathewu 18: 3). Ukufika ezingeni lomntwana futhi ube sengozini futhi ulula, futhi mhlawumbe uthule kancane, kusikhumbuza ukuthi kuphela ngokuthobeka esingasondela eNkosini.
Manje abanye abazali, ikakhulukazi labo abanentsha, bayazi ukuthi ukuphakamisa ukuthi "isikhathi somndeni" kungamukelwa ngamehlo abonayo nemibhikisho, kepha musa ukukuvumela lokho. Ucwaningo lwango-2019 luveze ukuthi amaphesenti angamashumi ayisikhombisa nantathu wezingane ezineminyaka emihlanu kuya kweyishumi nesikhombisa athi afisa ukuthi babe nesikhathi esengeziwe sokuxhumana nabazali babo.

Kusukela ngoJuni 12 kuya kuJuni 21, eMessy Family Project siphonsela abazali inselelo yokuthi benze izinto ezintathu: ukubonana nomlingani wabo, ukuchitha usuku lokuzijabulisa nomndeni nokufaka i-Sacred Heart of Jesus ekhaya lakho, kumenyezelwa obala ukuthi uJesu Inkosi yomndeni wakho. Asigcini nje ngokuba nohlu lwemibono yezinsuku zomndeni ezishibhile futhi ezimnandi nezinsuku ezishibhile, kodwa futhi sinomkhosi womndeni okufanele siwusebenzise emkhosini wokubekwa esihlalweni sobukhosi.
