Uhlelo Lwamahhala Lokufunda nokuthandaza okuhlobene ne NgokukaMathewu 12:11

“Izinhliziyo zethu aziphumuli baze bakuthole ukuphumula kuWe.” Akukaze nanini ngaphambili ukuthi abaningi bethu bazizwe ukungahlaliseki u-Augustine akuchaze ngalo musho odumile. Kepha siyini isisombululo ekushodeni kwethu kokuphumula kwangempela? Njengoba lolu hlelo lwezinsuku ezintathu luzobonisa, ikhambi ngokwengxenye lisekubukeni umkhuba wasendulo weSabatha ngelinye ilensi — ngokusebenzisa i-lens ka “Wena” —uJesu — umthombo wethu wokugcina wokuthula.

Abaningi bethu basebenza ngokweqile futhi bekhathele ngokuphelele, ngakho-ke umqondo weSabatha wawungeke ubaluleke kakhulu. Ukuhlonipha iSabatha kusho “ukuligcina lingcwele,” futhi elithi ingcwele lisho nje “ukuhlukaniswa.” Isabatha lethu kufanele libukeke lahlukile kunezinye izinsuku eziyisithupha zeviki lethu. Kuleli Cebo, sizoxoxa ngokuthi kuyini, yini okungeyona, ukuthi kubukeka kanjani namuhla, nokuthola ukuphumula kwethu kweqiniso kuJesu.

Kuthiwani uma kungadingeki silinde kuze kube yilapho sesifikile lapho sikhuluma khona lokho okuphukile ezimpilweni zethu? Njengoba nje sitshala imali ekuhlanzeni amakhaya ethu, yisikhathi sokumema uMoya oNgcwele ukuthi ahlanze izinhliziyo zethu. Kulolu Hlelo LweBhayibheli Lwezinsuku Ezingu-7, sizothola ukuthi singawuyeka kanjani umthwalo ongokomzwelo osibuyisela emuva futhi osindayo.

I-Evangelical Alliance Week of Prayer (WOP) iwuhlelo olubhekwa emhlabeni wonke kodwa oluvame ukubonwa yi-Europe yonke ngezinto ezihlinzekwa yi-European Evangelical Alliance. I-WOP 2022 yenzeka ngaphansi kwendikimba ethi "iSabatha." Kuzo zonke izinsuku eziyisishiyagalombili abafundi bayamenywa ukuba bagxile esicini esisodwa seSabatha: ubuwena, ukuhlinzekwa, ukuphumula, ububele, ukukhumbula, injabulo, ukupha, nethemba. Sithandazela ukuthi lensiza izokusiza ukuthi (uphinde) uthole impilo ehambisana nesigqi sikaNkulunkulu!
