Cabanga namuhla ngobizo lwakho empilweni
Lapho uJesu ephakamisa amehlo, wabona abantu abathile abacebile bebeka iminikelo yabo endaweni yengcebo, futhi wabona umfelokazi ompofu ebeka izinhlamvu zemali ezimbili ezincane. Wathi, “Ngiqinisile ngithi kuwe, lo mfelokazi ompofu ubeke kakhulu kunabo bonke abanye; kulabo abanye bonke benze iminikelo ngokunotha kwabo okwedlulele, kepha yena, ngokuswela kwakhe, wanikela ngakho konke ukudla kwakhe. ULuka 21: 1-4
Ingabe ngempela wanikela ngaphezu kwakho konke okunye? NgokukaJesu, wakwenza! Manje kungenzeka kanjani lokhu? Le ndima yeVangeli isivezela ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubona kanjani ukuhlonipha umbono wezwe.
Kusho ukuthini ukupha nokuphana? Ingabe kumayelana nokuthi sinemali engakanani? Noma ingabe kuyinto ejulile, okuthile okungaphakathi ngokwengeziwe? Ngokuqinisekile kungokugcina.
Ukupha, kulokhu, kukhulunywa ngemali. Kepha lokhu kumane kungumfanekiso wazo zonke izinhlobo zeminikelo esibizelwe ukukunikela. Isibonelo, nathi sibizelwe ukunikela ngesikhathi nangeziphiwo zethu kuNkulunkulu ngothando lwabanye, ukwakhiwa kweSonto nokusabalaliswa kweVangeli.
Bheka ukunikela ngale ndlela. Cabanga ngokunikela ngabangcwele abakhulu abake baphila impilo efihliwe. USaint Therese waseLisieux, isibonelo, wanikela ngempilo yakhe kuKristu ngezindlela eziningi ezingenakubalwa. Wayehlala ngaphakathi kwezindonga zesigodlo sakhe futhi wayenokuxhumana okuncane nezwe. Ngakho-ke, ngokubuka komhlaba, unikele okuncane kakhulu futhi wenza umehluko omncane. Kodwa-ke, namuhla uthathwa njengomunye wodokotela abakhulu beSonto ngenxa yesipho esincane somlando wakhe ongokomoya kanye nobufakazi bempilo yakhe.
Kungashiwo okufanayo ngawe. Mhlawumbe ungomunye owenza imisebenzi ebonakala incane futhi ingabalulekile. Mhlawumbe ukupheka, ukuhlanza, ukunakekela umndeni nokunye okunje kuthatha usuku. Noma mhlawumbe umsebenzi wakho uthatha okuningi kwalokho okwenzayo nsuku zonke futhi uthola ukuthi unesikhathi esincane esisele sezinto "ezinkulu" ezinikezwa uKristu. Umbuzo uwukuthi empeleni: UNkulunkulu uyibona kanjani insizakalo yakho yansuku zonke?
Cabanga namuhla ngobizo lwakho empilweni. Mhlawumbe awubizelwanga ukuthi uqhubeke wenze "izinto ezinkulu" ngokubuka komphakathi nasezweni. Noma mhlawumbe awenzi ngisho "nezinto ezinkulu" ezibonakalayo ngaphakathi kweSonto. Kepha okubonwa uNkulunkulu yizenzo zansuku zonke zothando ozenza ngezindlela ezincane kakhulu. Ukwamukela umsebenzi wakho wansuku zonke, ukuthanda umndeni wakho, ukwenza imithandazo yansuku zonke, njll. Uyazibona futhi, okubaluleke kakhulu, ubona uthando nokuzinikela owenza ngakho. Ngakho-ke ungavumeli umbono wamanga nowezwe ngobukhulu. Yenza izinto ezincane ngothando olukhulu futhi uzonikeza uNkulunkulu okuningi ngokuchichima intando yakhe engcwele.
Nkosi, namuhla futhi nsuku zonke ngizinikela kuwe nasenkonzweni yaKho. Sengathi ngenza konke engibizelwe ukukwenza ngothando olukhulu. Ngicela uqhubeke ungibonise umsebenzi wami wansuku zonke futhi ungisize ngamukele lowo msebenzi ngokuvumelana nentando Yakho engcwele. Jesu ngiyakholelwa kuwe.
