Ngeke ngikwenze ujabule kulomhlaba, kodwa kolunye!
Lokhu kuzwakale "yiNkosazana egqoke ezimhlophe" eyavela ngomhlaka 11 Febhruwari 1858 eGrotto yaseMassabielle. Kwakuyintombazane eyayineminyaka engu-14 ubudala, icishe ifundile futhi ingekho emqondweni, zombili izinsizakusebenza zomnotho ezitholakalayo emndenini, zombili ngenxa yamakhono akhe amancane okufunda, kanye nempilo egula kakhulu, eyayinakho njalo Ukuhlasela kwesifuba somoya, akuzange kumvumele ukuba aphefumule. Njengomsebenzi wayelusa umhlambi futhi okuwukuphela kwendlela yakhe yokudla kwakuwumqhele we-irosari ayekhumbula nsuku zonke, ethola induduzo nobungani kuwo. Kodwa-ke kwakuyinto yakhe ngqo kuye, intombazane ngokusobala "elahliwe" ngokomqondo wezwe, ukuthi iNcasakazi uMary yazethula ngalesichasiso ukuthi iSonto, eminyakeni emine eyedlule, lasimemezela njengenfundiso ethi: Mina nginguMbatha Wokuhlaselwa, ukusho ngesikhathi sokunye kokusebenza okungu-18 uBernadette ayenakho kulowo mhume eduze kwaseLourdes, indawo azalelwa kuyo. Lapho futhi uNkulunkulu wayesekhethe emhlabeni "okuwubuwula ukudida abahlakaniphileyo" (bona 1 Kor 23), echitha yonke imigomo yokuhlola kanye nobukhulu bomuntu. Yisitayela esiphindwe kaningi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, kufaka phakathi leyo minyaka lapho iNdodana kaNkulunkulu yakhetha phakathi kwabadobi abathobekile nabangenalwazi labo baPhostoli okwakufanele ukuthi baqhubeke nomsebenzi wakhe emhlabeni, banikeze impilo iBandla lokuqala. "Ngiyabonga ngoba ukube bekukhona intokazi ebaluleke kunami ngabe awungikhethanga ..." kubhale le ntokazi eTestamenteni lakhe, yazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wakhetha abahlanganyeli bakhe "abanelungelo" phakathi kwabampofu nabancane.
UBernadette Soubirous wayengafani ne-mystique; wakhe, njengoba kuye kwashiwo, wayengumuntu onobuhlakani nje osebenzayo futhi okhumbula kahle. Kodwa-ke akakaze aziphikise lapho elandisa ngalokho akubonile futhi wakuzwa "emgedeni yiNkosazana egqoke ezimhlophe nebhlatha eliluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka eliboshwe okhalweni". Kungani umkholwe? Ngokufanelekile ngoba yayibumbene futhi ngaphezu kwakho konke ngoba yayingazifuneli izinzuzo zayo, noma ukuthandwa, noma imali! Futhi-ke wayazi kanjani, ngokungazi kwakhe kwalasha, lelo qiniso eliyimfihlakalo futhi elibabazekayo le-Immaculate Concepts iSonto elanda ukuqinisa? Yikho kanye lokhu okwakholisa umpristi wakhe wesonto.
Kepha uma ikhasi elisha lencwadi yomusa kaNkulunkulu labhalelwa umhlaba (ukuqashelwa kobuqiniso bohlelo lokusebenza kukaLourdes lafika eminyakeni emine nje kamuva, ngo-1862), ngombono waqala indlela yokuhlupheka noshushiso eyayihambisana naye. kuze kube sekupheleni kokuphila kwakhe. Ngeke ngikwenze ujabule kulomhlaba ... INdlovukazi ibingashayi ihlaya. Ngokushesha uBernadette waba yisisulu sokusolwa, wahlekisa, waphenywa, wasolwa zonke izinhlobo, ngisho nokuboshwa. Kwakungakholelwa nakancane kunoma ngubani: kungenzeka yini ukuthi i-Our Lady yayimkhethile? Le ntombazane ayikaze iziphikise, kepha ukuze azivikele kulaka olunjalo welulekwa ukuba azikhiyele eMonastery of Nerves. "Ngize lapha ukuzofihla," kusho ngosuku lokugqoka kwakhe futhi wakugwema ukufuna amalungelo noma ukuthandwa ngoba nje uNkulunkulu ayemkhethile ehluke ngokuphelele kunabanye. Kwakungekho bungozi. Akusikho lokho iLady yethu eyayibone ngaphambili lapha emhlabeni ...
Ngisho nasendlini yezindela, eqinisweni, uBernadette bekumelwe aqhubeke nochungechunge lokululazeka nokungalungi, njengoba yena uqobo efakazela eTestamenteni lakhe: “Ngiyabonga ngokugcwalisa inhliziyo nenhliziyo eninginike yona ngomunyu. ngokubhuqa kukaMama Ophakeme, izwi lakhe elinokhahlo, ukungalungi kwakhe, indelelo yakhe nokululazeka, ngiyabonga. Ngiyabonga ngokuba yinto enhle yokuhlanjalazwa, lapho Odade bethi: Yinhlanhla enkulu ukungabi yiBernadette! ”. Lesi kwakuyisimo ayemukele ngaso leso sikhathi ukwamukela ukwelashwa okwakwenzeke kuye, kubandakanya nalesi sicelo esibuhlungu ayesizwile kophakeme lapho umbhishobhi esezomabela isabelo: “Kusho ukuthini kuye ukuthi kuhle akusizi ngalutho? ". Umuntu kaNkulunkulu, engasatshiswa nakancane, uphendule wathi: "Ndodakazi yami, njengoba ungelutho ngikunikeza umsebenzi wokukhuleka!".
Ngokuzithandela wamuphathisa umsebenzi ofanayo uMefabiate Concepts ayemnike wona eMassabielle, lapho ngaye ebuza wonke umuntu: Ukuguquka, ukuphenduka, umkhuleko ... Empilweni yakhe yonke imboni encane ilalele le ntando, ethandaza ecashile futhi ebekezelela bonke abasebunyeni kanye nogqozi lukaKristu. Wanikela ngakho, ngokuthula nangothando, ukuguqulwa kwezoni, ngokwentando yeNtombi. Intokozo enkulu yayihamba naye, nokho, phakathi neminyaka eyisishiyagalolunye ayichitha elele, ngaphambi kokuba afe esemncane ngeminyaka engama-35, ebambelele ebubini obabusiya bukhula.
Kulabo ababemduduza, uphendule ngokumamatheka okufanayo okukhanyise ngesikhathi semihlangano noMadonna: "UMariya muhle kakhulu ukuthi labo abambona bangathanda ukufa baphinde bambone". Lapho izinhlungu zomzimba zingabekezeki, wabubula: "Cha, angifuni impumuzo, kepha amandla nokubekezela kuphela". Ukuba khona kwayo okufushane ngakho-ke kwadlula ekwamukelweni ngokuthobeka kwalokho kuhlupheka, okukhonze ukuhlenga imiphefumulo eminingi kangaka edinga inkululeko yokuthola kabusha insindiso kanye nokusindiswa. Impendulo enomusa esimemweni se-Immaculate Concepts eyayivele kuye futhi eyayikhulume naye. Futhi ukwazi ukuthi ubungcwele bakhe bebengeke buthembele ekutholeni ilungelo lokubona iLady yethu, uBernadette ngalesosikhathi aphetha iTestamente lakhe: "Ngiyabonga, Nkulunkulu wami ngalo mphefumulo onginike wona, ngenxa yehlane lobucwayi bangaphakathi, ngoba ubumnyama bakho nezambulo zakho, ukuthula kwakho nokukhanya kwakho; ngiyabonga ngakho konke, kuwe, awukho noma ukhona, ngiyabonga Jesu ”.
