Kwathi edlula, wabona uLevi ka-Alfewu ehleli endlini yezivakashi. UJesu wathi kuye: "Ngilandele." Wasukuma walandela uJesu (Marku 2:14
Uyazi kanjani intando kaNkulunkulu ngempilo yakho? Esifundweni sakhe sasemoyeni, iThe Spiritual Exercises, uSt Ignatius waseLoyola wethule izindlela ezintathu esazi ngazo intando kaNkulunkulu.Indlela yokuqala indlela ecacile necacile. Yisikhathi lapho umuntu ehlangabezana khona "nokucaca okungangabazeki" ngenxa yomusa okhethekile ovela kuNkulunkulu. Ekuchazeni lokhu okuhlangenwe nakho, uSt. Ignatius ubalula lendima ecashunwe ngenhla njengomfanekiso walolu lwazi.
Kuncane okushiwoyo ngalolu bizo lukaLevi eVangelini likaMarko, elibhalwe futhi eVangelini likaMathewu (Mathewu 9: 9). ULevi, owaziwa nangokuthi uMatteo, wayephethe ukuqoqa intela kumasiko akhe. Kubukeka sengathi uJesu washo lamagama amabili alula kuLevi: "Ngilandele". Njengomphumela walawa magama amabili, uLevi uyayishiya impilo yakhe yangaphambili abe ngumlandeli kaJesu.Kungani uLevi angenza into enjalo? Yini leyamcinisekisa kutsi alandzele Jesu? Ngokusobala, kwakukhona okungaphezu kwesimemo samazwi amabili esivela kuJesu esamenza waphendula.
Okwaqinisekisa uLevi kwakuwumusa kaNkulunkulu okhethekile owakhiqiza emphefumulweni wakhe “ukucaca okungangabazeki”. Ngandlela thile uLevi wayazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayembiza ukuthi alahle impilo yakhe yangaphambilini amukele lempilo entsha. Akubanga nezingxoxo ezinde, akukho kuhlolwa kobuhle nobubi, kungekho okucabangayo ngakho isikhathi eside. ULevi wakwazi lokhu futhi waphendula.
Yize le ndlela yokucaca empilweni ingandile, kubalulekile ukuthi wazi ukuthi kwesinye isikhathi uNkulunkulu wenza ngale ndlela. Kwesinye isikhathi uNkulunkulu ukhuluma ngokucacile ukuthi ukuqiniseka kwethu kuqinisekile futhi siyazi ukuthi kumele senze okuthile. Lesi yisipho esihle lapho kwenzeka! Futhi ngenkathi lokhu kucaca kokucaca okusheshayo kungeyona indlela uNkulunkulu akhuluma ngayo nathi ngaso sonke isikhathi, kubalulekile ukuthi wazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu ukhuluma nathi ngale ndlela kwesinye isikhathi.
Cabanga namuhla ngalolu bizo lukaLevi. Cabanga ngalesi siqiniseko sangaphakathi asinikwa ngaleso sikhathi. Zama ukucabanga ukuthi wehlelwa yini nokuthi abanye bacabangani ngokukhetha kwakhe ukulandela uJesu. futhi uma uzizwa sengathi uNkulunkulu ukhuluma nawe ngokucacile okunjalo, lungela futhi uzimisele ukuphendula ngaphandle kokungabaza.
Nkosi yami othandekayo, ngiyabonga ngokusibiza sonke ukuthi sikulandele ngaphandle kokungabaza. Siyabonga ngentokozo yokuba ngumfundi Wakho. Nginike umusa wokwazi njalo intando yakho ngempilo yami futhi ungisize ngikuphendule ngokushiya ngokuphelele nokwethemba. Jesu ngiyakholelwa kuwe.
