Kristu uze kubo bonkeIsampula

Sisanda kwamukela umshana wami oneminyaka engu-10 no-12 ubudala, futhi into eyodwa esasiyenza njalo ekuseni kwakuwukufunda incwadi yezindaba yeBhayibheli kaMfundisi uRick ethi “Amacebo Amakhulu KaNkulunkulu Ngami.” 

Njengoba ngibhala lokhu, umphakathi wethu uphakathi nobhubhane lwe-COVID-19. Konke esikhuluma ngakho kubonakala kuhambisana nezinselelo, ukwesaba, nokukhathazeka okuhambisana nakho. Ngenxa yalokho, bengifuna ukuthi itafula lesidlo sasekuseni libe yindawo yokuthula - kungakhulunywa nge-COVID-19. Saba nezingxoxo ezinhle kakhulu, kuhlanganise nokukhuluma ngokufa nokuvuka kukaJesu.

Ngivame ukuthatha izinkolelo zami eziyinhloko njengento elula noma anginalo ngempela ithuba lokuzihlukanisa zibe izingcezu ezilumayo, eziqondakalayo. Ngakho ukuchazela umuntu osemncane ngalezi zinto futhi oza kokwakhe ukuqonda kokholo kwakuyisenzo esikhulu esinweba ukholo kimi. Njengoba sasixoxa ngezenzakalo ngasekupheleni kokuphila kukaJesu, ngaqala ukukhumbula ukuthi zinkulu kangakanani, zimangalisa kangakanani, futhi zinamandla kangakanani lezi zinkolelo eziyinhloko esizikholelwayo njengamaKristu. Yeka umcebo esiwuphethe njengamakholwa kaJesu! Siyamazi Lowo athi unguye futhi unamandla okwenza lokho athi uzokwenza—okuhlanganisa nokunqoba ukufa uqobo! 

Okuhle kakhulu kukho konke lokhu ukuthi akagcinanga lapho. Akazange nje akwenzele abafundi kanye nabantu ababephila ngalolo suku. uJesu weza eMhlabeni, wafa, futhi wavuseka wonke umuntu emhlabeni, izizukulwane ngezizukulwane. Wayenephakade enhliziyweni Yakhe — sonke isintu kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekugcineni. Lapho uJesu ethembisa abafundi Bakhe ukuthi wayezothwala ukufa uqobo futhi ashaywe ngenxa yeziphambeko zethu futhi achotshozwe ngenxa yobubi bethu, wayethembisa thina ukuthi uzokwenza lokhu ukuze inkululeko yethu futhi inkululeko yawo wonke umuntu ongakholwa Kuye - kungakhathaliseki ubudala, isimo somnotho, noma umndeni wendabuko. 

Kwabancane, kwabadala 

Kristu, Uzele bonke

Kwabacebile, kwabampofu 

Kristu, Uzele bonke

Kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba

Okomhlaba wonke 

Kristu, Uzele bonke

Umthandazo:

Ngiyabonga Jesu ukuthi uyindlela, neqiniso, nokuphila engingabeka ithemba lami lonke kuye. Ngiyabonga ngokugcina izithembiso zakho nangokufa nokuvuka ngenxa yami. Ngiyakholwa ukuthi unguKristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu ophilayo. Ngikholwa ukuthi weza eMhlabeni, wembatha inyama, futhi wajwayelana nobuthakathaka bami - washaywa futhi walinyazwa ngenxa yeziphambeko nobubi bami, wabethelwa esiphambanweni futhi wavuswa, futhi uyaphila namuhla! Ingabe Uzongibonisa ukuthi ngingabelana kanjani ngale ngcebo neqiniso engikugcine enhliziyweni yami kubantu obabeke emhlabeni wami, kuhlanganise nomndeni wami kanye nentsha empilweni yami labo ukholo lwabo luyakhiwa? Ngiyakuthanda, Jesu. Ngegama lakho, ameni.
