INJABULO ETHEMBA

Ngu-Isabelle Reardon

“Jabulani ethembeni, bekezelani osizini, niqinise emthandazweni.”—KwabaseRoma 12:12 (ESV)

Ivesi lanamuhla lingena phakathi kohlu olude lwezenzo uPawulu asikhuthaza ukuba sihambe kuzo. Izinto ezimbalwa asikhuthaza ukuba sizenze iwukuba sivumele uthando lwethu lube qotho, sithandane futhi sihloniphane, sibusise labo abasihluphayo; futhi singanqotshwa ngokubi kodwa sinqobe okubi ngokuhle. 

Uma ngikhuluma iqiniso, lapho ngifunda amaRoma 12:12 angikhuthazwa ngoba konke okukimi akufuni ukujabula ethembeni, nokubekezela osizini, nokuthandaza njalo. Kunalokho, yonke into ekimi ijwayele ukukhononda, ayinasineke ikakhulukazi uma kukhulunywa ngosizi, futhi akufuni ukuba semkhulekweni njalo. Ngingathanda ukuthi kuPawulu, “Woza, ucabanga ukuthi ngingubani? Lokhu kuzwakala njengohlu lwezinto ezingenakwenzeka!”

Kungenzeka ukuthi ucabanga into efanayo. Futhi kuyiqiniso. Kunzima ukwenza zonke lezi zinto ngamandla ethu, abonakale ebuthakathaka futhi engenawo amandla nhlobo. UJesu akalindele ukuba sinqobe uhlu lwezinto okufanele sizenze. Kunalokho, ufuna sithole isipho sethemba, ukubekezela, nokuqina emthandazweni okungatholakala kuphela ngokuhlala Kuye.

Asikwazi neze ukwenza noma yini ngokwethu (NgokukaJohane 15:5), futhi uJesu uyakwazi lokhu. 1 KwabaseKorinte 4:7 (ESV) uPawulu uthi, “Yini onayo ongayamukeliswanga na?” Noma yikuphi okuhle esinakho, nanoma yikuphi okuhle okuke kwakhiqizwa kithi, akukaze kuvele ebuntwini bethu. Bekulokhu kungumphumela kaNkulunkulu ophilayo osebenza kithi. 

Akudingeki ukuthi sizame ukuhlanganisa into ebukeka njengokujabula ethembeni. Sinikezwe ithemba ngesihle Yena uqobo, futhi ngenxa yalesi sipho siyakwazi ukuthokoza. 

Bangane, uJesu usinike okuningi. Usinike umndeni, ithemba laphakade, futhi Usinike Yena uqobo. Kodwa sinenkululeko yokuzikhethela. Futhi ngaleyo ndlela, sithola ukukhetha ukuthi sizobheka kuphi nokuthi sizobambelela ini. Umbuzo uwukuthi: Ingabe siyozibheka ngokwethu ukuba siqongelele ukujabula ethembeni, ingabe siyobheka izimo zethu ukuze zanelise ukulangazelela kwethu ithemba elijabulisayo, noma siyozibekela eceleni izinto esizibambele mathupha futhi sibambe ingcebo yethu? sinikeziwe—uMsindisi womhlaba osibiza ngabathandekayo Bakhe futhi osinika injongo?

Masizinikele, sibambelele kuJesu, futhi sibuke njengoba isipho sethemba Lakhe elijabulisayo sikhuphuka ngaphakathi kwethu futhi sishintsha indlela esibona ngayo umhlaba osizungezile.

Yima kancane futhi ucabange: Kungani injabulo nokuhlupheka kuvame ukuhlotshaniswa emiBhalweni? 

Ziqeqeshe Sekushiwo ngaphambilini ukuthi intokozo iwumuzwa, kodwa injabulo iyisinqumo. Ngakho-ke, njengokuthululwa kwethemba likaKristu, cabanga izindlela ongabonisa ngazo injabulo namuhla. 

Khuleka: Ukwethemba uJehova nokuthokoza eNkosini kukhuthazwa isikhathi noJehova. Njengoba uthandaza namuhla, mbonge uJehova ngazo zonke izinto akunike zona ezibangela ukuba uhambe ethembeni futhi uphile ngentokozo.

1 KwabaseKorinte 13:13 ithi, “Manje-ke kumi lokhu kokuthathu: ukholo, ithemba nothando. Kodwa okukhulu kulokhu luthando.” Ukholo, ithemba, nothando, yizici ezintathu ezichaza abalandeli bakaKristu. Kuwo wonke umbhalo, lezi zihlukaniso ezintathu zitholakala ndawonye. Lolu hlelo lwezinsuku ezingu-12 lwabesifazane luzohlola ingqikithi namandla aguqula impilo yethemba kuKristu Jesu.
