Uxolo olulahlekileyoIsampulu
Uxolo lobudlelwane
Ukungaqiniseki kudla ngokukhulisa ungquzulwano kunye neembono eziqinileyo. Kwaye kwixesha apho ilizwi elithi "elingazange libonwe ngaphambili" linokuba lilizwi lonyaka, sonke siye sijongane nongquzulwano oluthile.
Nokuba ziingxoxo zezopolitiko eziqala ngesidlo sangokuhlwa seholide, izimvo kwimidiya yoluntu eziba shushu kancinci, okanye ukuba neencoko ezinzima malunga nemida, ngamanye amaxesha abantu esibathandayo kakhulu banokusibangela olona xinzelelo.
Kodwa uxolo lunokubakho kulwalamano lwethu. Enyanisweni, ukuzisa uxolo ehlabathini yinto esibizelwe ukuyenza njengabalandeli bakaYesu. KwiNtshumayelo yaseNtabeni, uYesu wathi:
Banoyolo abo bangabaxolisi, kuba uThixo uya kuthi bangabantwana bakhe. UMatewu 5:9 XHO96
Phawula ukuba ithi “umenzi woxolo”—hayi “umgcini woxolo.” Ukudala uxolo yinkqubo yokusebenza. Ayithethi ukuba sihamba kunye nayo yonke imibono ephoswayo etafileni yesidlo sangokuhlwa. Kwakhona akuthethi ukuba kufuneka sivumelane nayoyo yonke into okanye singaze sibangele ungquzulwano. Ezo zenzo zisenokubangela kubengathi kuseluxolweni—kodwa kungekhona uxolo lokwenene.
Nangona kuhenda ukungayihoyi impixano okanye wenze ngathi akukho, ayisiyompendulo yothando leyo. AmaRoma 12:9 asikhumbuza ukuba uthando lumele lube lolunyanisekileyo. Ukuba siyazifihla iimvakalelo zethu ezibuhlungu, asizisi uxolo—siyayiphepha inkqubo yokudala uxolo.
Nangona kunjalo, uPawulos uhlala esicela umngeni kumaRoma 12 ukuba sicinge ukuba uxolo lubonakala njani na, kwaye akukho lula. Emva kokusikhuthaza ukuba sisikelele abo basikhubekisayo, sikuphephe ukuziphindezela, size sihlale ngoxolo nabanye, uvakalisa olu celomngeni:
Ukuba kuyenzeka, okukokwenu nina, hlalani ninoxolo nabantu bonke. KwabaseRoma 12:18 XHO96
Qaphela ukuba ithi, “njengoko kuxhomekeke kuni.” Lo nto ithetha ukuba asizukukhethwa ngenxa yesimilo sikamalume wethu. Nokuba yonke into esingqongileyo ijongeka njani na, uThixo usafuna ukuba siphuthume uxolo, nokuba oko kuthetha ukubandakanya umntu ngokuthe ngqo okanye ukuzisusa kwimeko ukuba siyazi ukuba yeyona ndlela ilungileyo yokuzisa uxolo ngalo mzuzu.
Ngoko, unokuba ngumenzi woxolo njani kuzo zonke iimeko? Sifumana ubulumko obongezelelekileyo malunga noku kuYakobi:
Ke bona ubulumko baphezulu ukuqala bunyulu, buze bube boboxolo, buyancendezela, buthozamé kakuhle, buzele yinceba neziqhamo ezilungileyo; abunankani abunaluhanahaniso. Isiqhamo ke sobulungisa sihlwayelwa ngoxolo ngabo benza uxolo.. EkaYakobi 3:17-18 XHO75
Ukuba ngumenzi woxolo kujongeka njengokucela ubulumko kuThixo, emva koko uvavanye obo bulumko ngokuvavanya ukuba buzele luxolo okanye buzaliswe likratshi lethu. Kuthetha ukuba nangona kulungile ukuba sabelane ngoluvo lwethu kwaye sivakalise iinkxalabo zethu, sibeka phambili abanye abantu ngaphezu kwethu.
Kukhangeleka njengo kuthobeka kwaye nobubele xa sisabelana ngembono zethu. Kuthetha ukuvavanya iinjongo zethu zokwabelana kunye nokuqinisekisa ukuba sikwenza oko sicinga ngokubuyisela. Kukhangeleka njengo kubuza enoba injongo yethu kukufuna ubulungisa okanye ukulunga kwethu.
Ke, xa uzifumana ukwimeko efuna uxolo lobudlelwane, nqumama. Cinga okona kulungileyo komnye umntu. Thetha ngendlela oziva ngayo okanye into ocinga ngayo. Zithobe. Bonisa uvelwano. Yithandazele. Yaye zibuze ukuba liliphi inyathelo elilandelayo onokulithabatha ukuzisa uxolo kule meko.
Xa usenjenjalo, ungumntu odala uxolo—kwaye ungumntwana kaThixo.
