AMAZWI KA BABA OYINGCWELE
Abelusi baseBetlehema basitshela ukuthi singahlangana kanjani neNkosi. Bayabuka ebusuku, abalali. Bahlala beqaphile, bevukile ebumnyameni; futhi uNkulunkulu "wabamboza ngokukhanya" (Lk 2,9: 2,15). Kuyasebenza nakithi. "Ngakho-ke masiye eBhetlehema" (Lk 21,17: 24): ngakho-ke abelusi basho futhi benza. Nathi, Nkosi, sifuna ukuza eBhetlehema. Umgwaqo, nanamuhla, usenyuka: isiqongo sobugovu kumele sinqotshwe, akumele singene emhosheni wokuthanda izwe nokuthenga abathengi. Ngifuna ukufika eBetlehema, Nkosi, ngoba yilapho ongilindele khona. Futhi ukubona ukuthi Wena, obekwe emkhombeni, uyisinkwa sempilo yami. Ngidinga iphunga elimnandi lothando lwakho ukuze nami ngibe isinkwa esiphukile somhlaba. Nkosi, ngithwale emahlombe akho, Malusi omuhle: othandekayo wakho, nami ngizokwazi ukuthanda nokubamba abafowethu ngesandla. Bese kuzobe kunguKhisimusi, lapho ngiyokwazi khona ukuthi kuwe: "Nkosi, wazi konke, uyazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda" (jn 2018:XNUMX).
