Ixesha lokufunda: imizuzu emi-5

Ngethuba lokuhamba kwam ehlathini ngoJanuwari 9 kulo nyaka, izikali zawa emehlweni am: Ndandicinga ixesha elide malunga nokudibanisa okukhulu phakathi kwezizathu kunye nezifo, njengoko kuchazwe kweli candelo lilandelayo:

“Ke ngoko, osukuba esidla eso sonka, ayisele indebe yeNkosi, ngokungafanelekanga, woba netyala lomzimba negazi leNkosi . . . : 1)

Ngokusuka kumongo wangaphambili, ubani unokunciphisa ngokukhawuleza ukungafaneleki ekutyeni nje isonka newayini. Kodwa kuthetha ukuthini ngenene ukuthabatha ngokungafanelekanga umthendeleko?

Intsingiselo yeSidlo seNkosi sangokuhlwa kwelinye icala kukukhumbula idini likaYesu yaye kwelinye icala kukuphengulula kwentliziyo kabani kwangaphambili. Ukuthatha inxaxheba ngokungafanelekanga kuthetha: ukungabi nalungelo kuko. Asinalungelo lokuxolelwa ukuba nathi ngokwethu asixoleli okanye asiguquki kwizono zethu. Ukuhlanjwa kweenyawo kufuna ukusikhumbuza nokusiyala ukuba isonka newayini (o.k.t. ukufa okulidini noxolelo ngoYesu) zinempembelelo yazo kuphela kwaye zizalisekise injongo yazo xa thina ngokwethu siseluxolweni noThixo, kodwa nakwindawo esihlala kuyo.

Ukucela ukuxolelwa, ukulungisa, uxolelaniso - oku kuyinxalenye yethu kwisidlo seNkosi. Emva koko-kwaye kuphela emva koko-sifumana isiqinisekiso sikaThixo. Ukuba asiyenzi indima yethu, sithabatha umthendeleko ngokungafanelekanga. Ekubeni uThixo enokusixolela kuphela njengokuba nathi sibaxolela abo banamatyala kuthi, ityala ke ngoko lihleli kuthi yaye isipho sikaThixo soxolelo, iintsikelelo azithembisileyo, azifikeleli kuthi.

Ngoko kutheni abaninzi bethu bebuthathaka kwaye begula, okanye (ngokucacileyo ngokukhawuleza) bafile? Kuba uThixo akanako ukugalela iintsikelelo zakhe, uMoya, isiqhamo, nezipho zoMoya, zibe zininzi ezintliziyweni zethu.

UYesu wabalela abafundi bakhe kuyo nayiphi na intshukumo ngaphambi kokunyuka kwakhe. Akazange abanike iingqiqo, nesakhiwo, kwanomsebenzi wokutyala ibandla. Wabaxelela kuphela ukuba balinde eYerusalem de “idinga likaYise lizaliseke” (IZenzo 1,4:XNUMX). iintsuku? Iinyanga? Iminyaka?

Kwabelwa ixesha phakathi kwabafundi lokuba bacoceke, boyise ikratshi, amabhongo, nokuzenza izinto, baze baxolelane. Kwathi ke xa konke oku kwenziwe, emva kweentsuku ezili-10, uMoya oyiNgcwele wayenokuthululwa. Esi siganeko sasinokuba senzeka ngosuku lwesibini okanye amashumi eminyaka kamva, kuxhomekeka ekuzimiseleni kwabo. Ke ngoku uMoya wathululwayo, nezipho zoMoya zininzi; IPentekoste njengesiphumo senguquko yokwenene, ukuvuma ityala omnye komnye.

Ukuba namhlanje siyazibona kwaye sizive izipho zomoya, kodwa kwanesiqhamo somoya, kuphela kakhulu, ngokumbalwa, isizathu sikukuba sithabatha iSidlo seNkosi ngokungafanelekanga, okt asenzi umsebenzi wethu wasekhaya. Njengabantu ngabanye, iintsapho, uluntu, amaziko.

Esi sesinye isizathu sokuba kubekho abantu abaninzi kangaka abagulayo nababandezelekileyo phakathi kwethu, yaye inani elikhulu lafa ngaphambi kwexesha. Kakade ke, oku akukuphela kwesizathu sokugula kunye nokubandezeleka, kodwa mhlawumbi kubaluleke kakhulu kunokuba sicinga.

Sisenako ukucela imvula yamva amashumi eminyaka - ukuba asizivuleli kuyo, ayisayi kungena ezintliziyweni zethu.

Singawuphatha kakuhle umfanekiso wendibano yePentekoste kunye nathi njengokulungiselela isidlo sangokuhlwa esilandelayo: iintsuku zokuvuma izono, ukubeka izinto ngolungelelwano, ukucela uxolelo nokuxolelwa kuqukunjelwa ngokuhlanjwa kweenyawo. Ngoko ke sikulungele ukwamkela idini likaYesu, uxolelo lwakhe, kodwa nesipho sakhe – uMoya oyiNgcwele, isiqhamo sakhe, izipho zakhe.
