Kungani Ngalahlekelwe Umsebenzi Wami Uma Unkulunkulu Engithanda?Isampula

Uhlelo Lomdlalo

Nakuba ngingeyena ngempela umpetha, bengilokhu ngimangazwa amaqiniso angajwayelekile nezingcezu zolwazi. Ngokwesibonelo, uma bengingakubuza ukuthi iliphi emavesini eBhayibheli angaphezu kuka-31 000 elithandwa kakhulu, ubungaqagela ukuthini? Ngizokunikeza iseluleko: Yivesi ovame ukulibona ezingqwembeni emidlalweni yebhola. Kunjalo—NgokukaJohane 3:16. “Ngokuba uNkulunkulu walithanda izwe kangaka, waze wanikela ngeNdodana yakhe ezelwe yodwa, ukuba yilowo nalowo okholwa yiyo angabhubhi, kodwa abe nokuphila okuphakade.”

Sazi kanjani ukuthi lelo ivesi elidume kakhulu eBhayibhelini? Abantu abaku-BibleGateway.com banekhono lokuhlanganisa izikhombo zemiBhalo eziseshwa kakhulu kuwebhusayithi yabo. Esikhathini esingeside esidlule babala amavesi ayikhulu asekelwe ekuseshweni kwamavesi eBhayibheli ayizigidi ezingamashumi amabili nanhlanu esikhathini esiyizinyanga ezimbili. Lapho ngihlola lolu hlu, ngabona ukuthi uJeremiya 29:11 uvela endaweni yesibili: “‘Ngokuba ngiyawazi amacebo enginawo ngani,’ usho uJehova, ‘amacebo okunephumelelisa hhayi awokunilimaza, amacebo okuninika ithemba nokuninika ithemba. ikusasa.’ ”

Uqaphelile ukuthi igama elithi izinhlelo livela kangaki kulelo vesi? Qhubeka, uwabale. Ngahlatshwa umxhwele inhloso yeNkosi ukusinika “ithemba nekusasa.” Phela, uhlelo lukhuluma ngokuklama, ukucabanga kusengaphambili, ukusungula umgomo nomphumela. Ngikholwa ukuthi kulungile ukusho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wembula okuthile ngesimo sakhe—ukuthi unguBaba osezulwini onothando, onomusa onesithakazelo esingcono kakhulu phakathi kwenhliziyo yakhe— kuyilapho futhi esifanekisela ubuhle bokuba nohlelo oluyinhloko.

Kufaneleka kangakanani ukugxila kokuzindla kwanamuhla — okungukuthi, ukwenza “uhlelo lomdlalo" ukuze ulawule inguquko yakho yomsebenzi. Njengoba ngikubona, uma ukuba nokwenza icebo lokufinyelela kumphumela owufunayo kulungiswa uNkulunkulu, khona-ke inqubo yokwenza uhlelo lokushintsha umsebenzi kufanele lubaluleke kimina. Ngamafuphi, uhlelo lomdlalo lusho ukuhlela isikhathi sethu ukuze sithole imiphumela. Ngaphandle kwecebo, siyanhlanhlatha futhi sizulazula ngokungenanjongo, sinenqubekelaphambili encane esingabonisa ngayo umsebenzi wethu ekupheleni kosuku noma ekupheleni kweviki.

Umqeqeshi webhola lezinyawo we-NFL odumile nomnikazi weqembu le-NASCAR, u-Joe Gibbs, ukubeka ngale ndlela: “Ukuwina ebholeni kuqala ngohlelo lomdlalo. Emijahweni iqala ngohlelo lomjaho. Okufanayo kuya ekuphileni. Uyafuna ukuwina? Udinga uhlelo lomdlalo oluwinayo. Isipiliyoni sami singifundise ukuthi okuwukuphela kwecebo lomdlalo eliwinayo lempilo uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu lomdlalo - futhi luqala ngeBhayibheli."

Kungakho uzobona ukuthi into yokuqala ohlelweni lomdlalo olunezingxenye eziyisikhombisa engiludalile luhlanganisa imiBhalo.

1. Ngizoqala usuku ngalunye okungenani ngemizuzu eyisikhombisa yeBhayibheli kanye/noma ukufunda imibhalo nokuthandaza. (Zizwe ukhululekile ukukhuphula lesi samba ngokushesha nje lapho usunomkhuba).
2. Ngizohlangana nomngani wami womshado noma engihlala naye isonto ngalinye ukuze ngibabuyekeze ngalokho ebengikwenza kanye nezinhlelo zami zokufuna umsebenzi zeviki elizayo.
