Siphila Kanjani Ngokuthula Nabanye?

Iminyaka engamashumi amathathu, uDonga LwaseBerlin belumile luhlukanisa imindeni, abangani kanye nabantu bezwe komunye nomunye. Ukhonkolo nocingo oluhlabayo lwaluhlukanisa uhlangothi olulodwa lwedolobha kolunye. Ngalolu donga, ukuthula kwakungenakwenzeka. Noma ngabe bekukhona ubutha, bebengasoze baqhakaza emphakathini ngalolu donga olubahlukanisayo. Ngo-November 9, 1989, udonga “lwadilika” futhi abaseBerlin bavunyelwa ukuba badlule emasangweni ayekhiyiwe ngaphambili. Izigidi zaqala ukugubha futhi zicula zithi “Vula isango!” Ekugcineni, ubudlelwano babungabuyiselwa futhi kube nokuthula.

Nakuba udonga lwaseBerlin lwaluwudonga lwangempela oluhlukanisayo kolunye, ngokuvamile sakha izindonga ezihlukanisayo zobutha ezinhliziyweni zethu ezisihlukanisa nabanye. Ubutha esibakhayo bungase bungabi obungokoqobo, kodwa bunamandla ngendlela efanayo ukusigcina singabi nokuthula phakathi kwethu.

Kodwa uJesu useguqule konke. Ngokufa Kwakhe esiphambanweni, uye wasusa icala nesono, enikeza ukuthula kubo bonke abathembela ukuphila kwabo ezandleni Zakhe. Kubo bonke abangabakhe manje, sihlanganiswe emndenini owodwa, futhi uJesu usesuse lonke udonga lobutha obungasenza singabi nokuthula nabanye. Lapho sikhumbula umsebenzi uJesu awenzile ukuze alethe ukuthula ezimpilweni zethu, kusiphoqa ukuthi siqhubekele phambili ekuletheni ukuthula kwabanye!

Ukungqubuzana kulapho abantu benokungaboni ngaso linye futhi bakuthola kunzima ukuzwana. Kulezi zimo, sibizelwa ukuba sibe abenzi bokuthula. Ungaba kanjani umenzi wokuthula? Kuthiwani ngokubheka kuJesu, ngubani umsizi wakho? Angakusiza uthole indlela yokuletha ukuthula. Ukuba ngumenzi wokuthula akusho ukuthi uyeka ukumela lokho okholelwa kukho, kusho ukuthi uletha umuzwa onokuthula esimweni esintula ukuthula.  Ngosizo lukaNkulunkulu uzokwazi ukuthi uthini ezimweni ezinzima. Ukuthula kukaJesu kuyothatha indawo yokwesaba nokukhathazeka, futhi ngenxa yokuthula asinika kona, singaba abenzi bokuthula kwabanye.
