Lowo ke uswele amandla elukholweni, mamkeleni, kodwa ke kungabi ngokucalula zicamango. Omnye okunene uyakholwa ukuba angàzidla izinto zonke; kodwa yena oswele amandla udla imifuno yodwa. Lowo udlayo, makangamenzi into engeyakonto ongadliyo; nalowo ungadliyo, makangamgwebi odlayo; kuba uThixo umamkele. Ùngubani na wena ugweba isicaka somnye? Ukuma kwaso, nokuba kukuwa kwaso, kusenkosini yaso. Síya kuma ke; kuba uThixo unako ukusimisa.
Omnye okunene ubeka umhla othile kunomnye umhla, wumbi ke ubeka imihla yonke. Elowo nalowo makaqiniseke kweyakhe ingqiqo. Lowo uwunyamekelayo umhla, uwunyamekelela iNkosi; nalowo ungawunyamekeliyo umhla, engawunyamekeli nje, wenzela iNkosi; lowo udlayo, udlela iNkosi, kuba ebulela kuThixo; nalowo ungadliyo, engadli nje, wenzela iNkosi, abe ebulela kuThixo.
Kuba akukho namnye kuthi uzidlelayo ubomi, akukho namnye uzifelayo. Kuba nokuba sithi sidle ubomi, sibudlela iNkosi; nokuba sithi sife, sifela iNkosi. Ngoko ke, nokuba sithi sidle ubomi, nokuba sithi sife, singabeNkosi. Kuba uKristu wafa, wabuya wavuka, wabuya wadla ubomi, ngenxa yoku, ukuze aphathe ubukhosi kwabafileyo, kwanakwabaphilileyo.
Ke wena, yini na ukuba umgwebe umzalwana wakho? Hi wena, yini na ukuba umenze into engeyakonto umzalwana wakho? Kuba thina siya kuma sonke phambi kwesihlalo sokugweba sikaKristu. Kuba kubhaliwe kwathiwa,
Ndihleli nje mna, itsho iNkosi, aya kugoba kum onke amadolo,
Zidumise uThixo zonke iilwimi.
(UIsaya 45:23)
Ngoko ke elowo kuthi uya kuziphendulela kuThixo.
Masingabi sagwebana ngoko; kanye yithini ukugweba, makungabekwa siwiso, nasikhubekiso, phambi komzalwana. Ndiyazi, ndeyisekile, ndiseNkosini uYesu nje, ukuba akukho nto iyinqambi ngokwayo; kodwa ke kuye obalela into ekuthini iyinqambi, kulowo iyinqambi.
Ukuba ke umzalwana wakho wenziwa buhlungu ngenxa yokusuka udle, akusahambi ngokothando. Musa ukumtshabalalisa ngokudla kwakho, yena lowo uKristu wamfelayo. Ngoko okulungileyo kwenu makunganyeliswa. Kuba ubukumkani bukaThixo abukukudla nakusela; bubulungisa noxolo novuyo kuMoya oyiNgcwele. Kuba omkhonzayo uKristu kwezo zinto, ukholekile kakuhle kuye uThixo; ucikidekile nakubo abantu.
Ngoko ke masisukele izinto zoxolo, nezinto zokwakhana. Musa ukuthi, ngenxa yokudla, uwuchithe umsebenzi kaThixo. Okunene, konke kuhlambulukile; kodwa ke kubi kuloo mntu uthi ngokudla akhubekise. Kuhle ukuba ungadli nyama, ungaseli wayini, ungenzi nto angabetheka kuyo umzalwana wakho, akhubeke kuyo, aswele amandla okuzigcina. Wena unokholo na? Hlala nalo emehlweni kaThixo. Únoyolo lowo ungazigwebiyo kuloo nto ayicikidileyo. Ke lowo uthandabuzayo, ukuba uthe wadla, uselegwetyiwe, kuba engadli ngokwaselukholweni; konke ke okungekokwaselukholweni kusisono.
