Qala Lapha | Izinyathelo Zokuqala NoJesuIsampula

NgokukaMarku 6-7 | Sithunyelwe Ukusebenzela

Siku-Mark 6 namuhla, futhi sekuyisikhathi sokungena kugemu. Ukulandela uJesu kwakungahlosiwe neze ukuba kube umdlalo wezibukeli, futhi abafundi sebezothola isikhathi sokudlala.

Lokho kuya nakuwe. Uma ulandela uJesu, ubizelwe enkonzweni, akukho okuhlukile. Manje uma ungelona ikholwa, isimemo sivuliwe. Kodwa khumbula, awumenywanga ukujoyina isikhungo, ubizelwe enhlanganyeleni. 

Kusho ukuthini lokho kubafundi? Sebezokuthola. KuMarku 6, ivesi 7:

Wabiza abayishumi nambili, waqala ukubathuma ngababili, wabanika amandla phezu kwawomoya abangcolileyo."

Qaphela ukuthi uJesu uyabathuma. Inkonzo ayilindi ukuthi abantu bangene, iphuma lapho kunesidingo khona. Futhi Ubathumela ngababili - inkonzo ngumdlalo weqembu. Futhi Ubanika igunya - igunya likaNkulunkulu - lokuhamba.  

Futhi Ubanika imiyalezo. Ivesi 8:

“Ningaphathi lutho ohambweni ngaphandle kodondolo - ningaphathi sinkwa, nasikhwama, namali emabhandeni enu.”

Ngakho umsebenzi wabo wokuqala uyisifundo ekukholweni. Awekho amalungiselelo - ukholo nje. Nokho, imiyalelo ayifani ngaso sonke isikhathi. Kamuva uJesu uzobathumela komunye umsebenzi kanye nezimiso. Inkonzo ayiyona indlela noma iresiphi, iwuhambo, futhi ukhiye wangempela ukuthola izikhombisi-ndlela ezivela eNkosini ngaso sonke isikhathi. Ukulandela uJesu kusho ukulandela imiyalelo, futhi uthembele kuNkulunkulu ngaso sonke isikhathi. Awunalutho noma unikezwe ngokugcwele, thembela kuNkulunkulu ukuthi uzokunikeza.

Kuzohamba kanjani-ke? Ivesi 12:

Baphuma bashumayela ukuba abantu baphenduke; Bakhipha amademoni amaningi, bagcoba abagulayo abaningi ngamafutha, babaphulukisa.”

Bakwenza-ke! Bathembela, futhi uNkulunkulu wabanika. Babuyela kuJesu beyobika, kodwa ngokushesha isixuku sabuthana, futhi evesini 31, wathi kubafundi,

“Hambani nami nina nodwa endaweni ethule, niphumule.”

Umthetho obalulekile wenkonzo lapha: phumula noJesu. Ngakho bafika endaweni eyihlane, kodwa isixuku sifika kuqala lapho! Uxolo bafo - akukho ukuphumula kulokhu. Amashumi amathathu nane:

“Kuthe uJesu efika phansi, wabona isixuku esikhulu, waba nesihe.”

Ngihlale ngimangala ngokukwazi kukaJesu ububele. Ububele busho “ukuhlupheka” - futhi uJesu wenza lokho kanye. Wayezibona izidingo zabantu futhi enakekela. Futhi wafundisa abafundi ukunakekela.

Yebo, uJesu wafundisa futhi kwahlwa. Abantu abaningi - indawo ekude - futhi badinga ukudla. Abafundi batshela uJesu ukuthi abamukise bonke. Kunomqondo. Ivesi 37:

“Kodwa waphendula wathi, 'Nina bapheni ukudla.’” 

Qaphela. Abafundi bayasibona isidingo, futhi uJesu uthi kubona baphakeleni abantu. Kodwa akwanele. Hhayi kancane! Futhi kuphakathi nendawo.

Kodwa khumbulani abasanda kukufunda: ningenalutho nigcwele, thembelani kuNkulunkulu ukuba anihlinzeke. Ivesi 38:

“‘Ninezinkwa ezingaki?’” wabuza. ‘Hambani nibone.’ Sebebonile bathi: ‘Ezinhlanu - nezinhlanzi ezimbili.’”

Leso yisinkwa nezinhlanzi ezimbalwa, hhayi izinkulungwane. Kodwa bhekisisa. Batshela abantu ukuthi bahlale phansi, futhi evesini 41,

Wazithabatha izinkwa eziyisihlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili, wabheka ngasezulwini, wabonga, wazihlephula izinkwa; Wasenika abafundi bakhe ukuthi bazabele abantu.”

Bamba lapho. Misa isikhashana itheyiphu bese ubheka ngokucophelela. UJesu wabonga, wazihlephula izinkwa, wanika umfundi ngamunye - kangakanani?

Ngena ezicathulweni zabo. Bheka ezandleni zakho - ingxenye yesinkwa mhlawumbe, inhlanzi encane. Bheka phezulu - amakhulu abantu. Kodwa uJesu wathi bapheni, ngakho baphakeleni. Amashumi amane nambili:

"Badla bonke basutha; abafundi babutha imvuthuluka yezinkwa nezinhlanzi, obhasikidi abayishumi nambili abagcwele. Inani lamadoda ayedlile laliyizinkulungwane ezinhlanu.”

Lokho kuhle kakhulu. Futhi kusenzeka. Ngizwe izindaba eziningi zangempela zezinkwa nezinhlanzi ezivela kubangani bami enkonzweni. Umsebenzi wokusiza iziphepho eNingizimu, ukondla abampofu eMexico, nokunye okuningi. Kwesinye isikhathi kuvele kuqhamuke iloli. Ngezinye izikhathi ukunikezwa okuncane kuhlala isikhathi eside kunalokho okufanele. Izimangaliso zangempela - kodwa njalo phakathi nokuhlangana nesidingo. Ngaso sonke isikhathi enkonzweni yobubele.

Njengoba ufunda uMarku 6 no-7, bheka izimangaliso zikaJesu. Ingabe uyabukisa - noma ubonisa ububele? Ingabe ufundisa abafundi ukwenza izimangaliso, noma ukunakekela nokusiza ngisho nalapho isidingo singaphezu kwalokho abangakunikeza?

Ngifunde kudala ukuthi angeneli. Kodwa inkonzo iwubizo kokuthile okukhulu kunathi, into esingeke sikwazi ukuyenza sodwa.

Kunjani kuwe? Ingabe unayo yini insiza ukuze usize bonke laba bantu? Cha? Nami ngokunjalo. Kodwa uJesu wathi hambani, ngakho masihambe. Awunalutho noma unikezwe ngokugcwele, thembela kuNkulunkulu… futhi ungene emdlalweni.
