Ithemba LinjaloIsampula
Ithemba Liwukuthembela KuNkulunkulu Ngekusasa Lethu
Sonke sibuke umdlalo lapho umphumela ububonakala ungenakugwenywa. Iqembu elilodwa lihlulwa kabuhlungu kangangokuthi kungadingeka isimangaliso ukuthi linqobe. Kodwa ngokuzumayo kwenzeka ushintsho lomdlalo: Umdlalo obekungalindelwe muntu uguqula isimo futhi unikeze iqembu elihluliwe umuzwa wethemba ovuselelwe.
Ukudlala okukodwa kulowo mdlalo owodwa akugcini nje ngokusinika ithemba ngalolo suku, kushintsha isimo sethu sengqondo ngawo wonke umdlalo olandelayo. Ngokuzayo lapho iqembu lethu lilwela ukubuya, sikhumbula leso sikhathi sokushintsha umdlalo futhi sizikhumbuze ukuthi lisekhona ithemba.
KumaKristu, insindiso iwushintsho lomdlalo. Kungakhathaleki ukuthi kwenzekani kithi, singahlala sibheka emuva emzuzwini lapho esacela uJesu ukuba angene ezimpilweni zethu futhi sibe nethemba sazi ukuthi wasisindisa ngaleso sikhathi futhi uzophinde asidlulele.
Asikho isimo esinzima kakhulu kuNkulunkulu ukuba angasisingatha. Akukho okubi esikwenzile angakwazi ukukulungisa. Lapho sikhumbula ukwethembeka kukaNkulunkulu okwedlule, singaqiniseka ngokuhlinzeka kwakhe kwesikhathi esizayo.
Njengomlobi wencwadi yesiLilo, singabheka emuva kukho konke uNkulunkulu asenzele kona esikhathini esidlule futhi sibe nethemba ngokwazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu ngeke asilahle manje. “Ububele [beNkosi] abupheli. Kusha njalo ekuseni…” (IsiLilo 3:22-23)
Thandaza:
Jesu, ngiyabonga ngokufeza izithembiso zakho. Ngenxa yokuthi ubuthembekile esikhathini esidlule, ngingakwethemba ngekusasa lami.
Zindla:
UNkulunkulu uye wathembeka kanjani kuwe esikhathini esidlule?
Yiziphi izithembiso olindele ukuthi uNkulunkulu azigcwalise esikhathini esizayo?
