Sikuzwa Kanjani Ukuthula?

Wayazi ukuthi akufanele abe lapho. Kwakuyindlu yomFarisi, umholi wenkolo emphakathini, futhi bheka, wayeyisoni, “owesifazane womuzi.” Wonke umuntu wayazi ngesiphithiphithi empilweni yakhe. Ngaphezu kwakho konke, wayazi. Umphefumulo wakhe wawunesiphithiphithi ngenxa yesono esasikhona empilweni yakhe. Ubutha kwabanye kanye noNkulunkulu bamlandela ngaso sonke isikhathi.

Kodwa kukhona okwamdonsela kulendlu. Kunalokho, othile wamdonsa. Lona wesifazane wayazi ekujuleni komphefumulo wakhe ukuthi uma kungase kutholakale ukuthula ekuphileni kwakhe, uJesu, iNkosi Yokuthula, wayengamnika kona. Ngesenzo sokholo esimangalisayo, lona wesifazane waziphonsa ezinyaweni zikaJesu, ekhala ngesono sakhe, ephukile ekuthuleni okwakungekho empilweni yakhe. Wayazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wayemdalele okuningi, okuhle nokuthula, kodwa kwase kudlule isikhathi eside. Ukuphila kwakhe kwakuhlanganisa isono, hhayi ukuthula. Mhlawumbe, mhlawumbe, uJesu wayezomnikeza ukuthula ekuphileni kwakhe okubuhlungu.

Kodwa, ngamazwi ayisishiyagalombili kuphela, uJesu washintsha konke. “Ukukholwa kwakho kukusindisile; hamba ngokuthula.” ( NgokukaLuka 7:36-50)

Sonke silangazelela ukuthula ezimpilweni zethu. Sonke sifuna kususwe ukubhidlika nesiphithiphithi sesono futhi kungene ukuthula. Pho sikuthola kanjani ukuthula kweqiniso? Singahamba kanjani futhi siphile izimpilo zethu ngokuthula? UJESU! UJESU! UJESU! Uma sibeka ukuphila kwethu ezinyaweni zakhe, simethemba ngomphefumulo wethu wonke, iNkosi yokuthula iyosibekela ngokuthula ingunaphakade! UJesu ungumniki wokuthula ezimpilweni zethu!

Imindeni Enezingane Ezincane

Funda NgokukaLuka 19:1-10. IZINGANE, Kungani uZakewu engazange abe nabangane abaningi? (ngoba wayeqhathe abantu ngemali futhi engathembekile) UZakewu wayefuna ukubona bani?  (UJesu) Wenzani ukuze abone uJesu? (wakhwela esihlahleni) Ingabe uJesu wahamba wangamnaka? (cha)  Wenzani uJesu lapho embona? (UJesu wamtshela ukuthi useza endlini yakhe) UJesu wayemazi uZakewu kodwa wayesamthanda. UJesu wayefuna uZakewu abe nokuthula kwaKhe okuphelele. UZakewu wayenamahloni, wayefuna ukuyeka ukwenza izinto ezimbi futhi aqale ukwenza izinto ezifanele. UJesu wamthethelela futhi waqala ukuzwa ukuthula okuvela kuJesu kuphela.

Umsebenzi ophakanyisiwe: Thola ibhokisi elincane bese ulebula ngokuthi "Ibhokisi LikaNkulunkulu." Thatha ipheshana ubhale kulo, "Lapha Nkulunkulu, ngikunika inkinga yami ye  zibalo, ibhola lezinyawo, ibhola lomnqakiswano, ukufunda, abangani, njll.bese ubhala ukuthi, "Angisenakukhathazeka.." Thandaza kuNkulunkulu bese ulibeka ebhokisini uNkulunkulu ufuna ubeke zonke izinkinga zakho kuye futhi wazi ukuthi uzozilungisa. Beka ibhokisi endaweni ebonakalayo ukuze likukhumbuze ukuthi uNkulunkulu nguye ophethe izinkinga zakho.

Funda NgokukaLuka 2:8-12.  IZINGANE, Uyini umalusi? (umuntu onakekela izimvu futhi azivikele engozini)   Kungani abelusi babesaba? (kwakumnyama, kungenzeka ukuthi balele, babecabanga ukuthi babodwa endle, bengalindele ukubona ingelosi) Yiziphi izindaba ingelosi eyazitshela abelusi?  (ukuthi uJesu wayezelwe) Bamthola kanjani umntwana uJesu? (inkanyezi ibiphezu kwesitebele)

Njengoba ukhuleka kulobubusuku, bonga uNkulunkulu ngokuthumela abelusi ukuba bayofuna uJesu. Mbonge ngokubakhombisa indlela! Bonga uNkulunkulu ngabangani bakho futhi umcele ukuba akusize ube umngani omkhulu kunabo bonke. Bonga uJesu ngokuba umngani wakho omkhulu nokuba nawe ngaso sonke isikhathi.
