Cabanga namuhla ngendlela ongamlingisa ngayo umprofethikazi u-Ana empilweni yakho
Kwakunomprofethikazi, u-Ana ... Akazange ashiye ithempeli, kodwa wayekhonza ubusuku nemini ngokuzila ukudla nangomkhuleko. Futhi ngaleso sikhathi, eqhubekela phambili, wabonga uNkulunkulu futhi wakhuluma ngomntwana kubo bonke ababelindele ukuhlengwa kweJerusalema. ULuka 2: 36-38
Sonke sinobizo oluyingqayizivele nolungcwele esilunikwe nguNkulunkulu. Ngamunye wethu ubizelwe ukufeza lolo bizo ngokupha nangokuzinikela okuqotho. Njengoba umthandazo odumile kaSt. John Henry Newman uthi:
UNkulunkulu wangidalela ukumenzela umsebenzi oqondile. Ungiphathise umsebenzi angawunikanga omunye. Nginomsebenzi wami. Ngingaze ngazi kulokhu kuphila, kodwa ngizokutshela kokulandelayo. Ziyisixhumanisi esiketangeni, isibopho sokuxhumana phakathi kwabantu ...
U-Anna, umprofethikazi, wayephathiswe umsebenzi oyingqayizivele futhi oyingqayizivele. Lapho esemncane, wayeseshade iminyaka eyisikhombisa. Kwathi ngemuva kokushonelwa ngumyeni wakhe, waba umfelokazi waze waba neminyaka engamashumi ayisishiyagalombili nane. Ngaleyo minyaka eyishumi yempilo yakhe, umBhalo wembula ukuthi "akazange ashiye ithempeli, kodwa wakhonza ubusuku nemini ngokuzila ukudla nangomkhuleko." Yeka ubizo olungakholeki oluvela kuNkulunkulu!
Umsebenzi oyingqayizivele ka-Anna kwakuwukuba ngumprofethikazi. Ugcwalise lolu bizo ngokuvumela impilo yakhe yonke ukuthi ibe wuphawu lobizo lobuKristu. Impilo yakhe wayichitha emthandazweni, ezila ukudla futhi, ngaphezu kwakho konke, elindile. UNkulunkulu umbizele ukuthi alinde, unyaka nonyaka, iminyaka eyishumi emva kweshumi, isikhathi esiyingqayizivele nesichazayo sempilo yakhe: ukuhlangana kwakhe noMntwana uJesu eThempelini.
Impilo ka-Anna engokwesiprofetho isitshela ukuthi ngamunye wethu kufanele aphile impilo yakhe ngendlela yokuthi inhloso yethu enkulu ukuhlala silungiselela isikhathi lapho sizohlangana neNkosi yethu ethempelini laseZulwini. Ngokungafani no-Anna, iningi alibizelwanga emthandazweni osheshayo nowangempela nsuku zonke usuku lonke ngaphakathi kwezakhiwo zesonto. Kepha njengo-Anna, sonke kumele sithuthukise impilo yangaphakathi yomkhuleko oqhubekayo nokuzisola, futhi kufanele zonke izenzo zethu sizibhekise ekudumiseni nasenkazimulweni kaNkulunkulu nasensindisweni yemiphefumulo yethu. Noma ngabe indlela okuzophilwa ngayo lo msebenzi womhlaba wonke izokwehluka kumuntu ngamunye, impilo ka-Anna nokho iyisiphrofetho esifanekisela ubizo ngalunye.
Cabanga namuhla ukuthi umlingisa kanjani lo wesifazane ongcwele empilweni yakho. Ngabe ukhuthaza impilo yangaphakathi yomkhuleko nokuzisola futhi ingabe ufuna zonke izinsuku ukuzinikezela enkazimulweni kaNkulunkulu nasekusindisweni komphefumulo wakho? Linganisa impilo yakho namuhla ngokubheka impilo enhle ka-Anna engokwesiprofetho esinikwe yona umsebenzi wokuyicabanga.
Nkosi, ngiyabonga ngobufakazi obunamandla bomprofethikazi u-Anna. Kwangathi ukuzinikela kwakhe impilo yakho yonke Kuwe, impilo yomkhuleko oqhubekayo nokuzidela, kungaba yisibonelo nogqozi kimi nakubo bonke abakulandelayo. Ngithandazela ukuthi usuku ngalunye luzongivezela indlela eyingqayizivele engibizelwe ngayo ukuba ngiphile ubizo lwami lokuzinikela ngokuphelele kuwe. Jesu ngiyakholelwa kuwe.
