Amaphutha Amakhulu angu-12 Angagwenywa AbazaliIsampula
Sihlela Izimpilo Zethu Ezinganeni Zethu
“Awukwazi kanjani ukupela leli gama? Usebangeni lesithathu, futhi sizilolonge njalo ebusuku ezinsukwini ezintathu ezedlule!” kusho umzali okhungathekile lapho ekhumbula ewina—noma mhlawumbe elahlekelwa—umsebenzi wokupela amagama ebangeni lesithathu. Sonke sadlula lapho. Mhlawumbe kwakuwukhahlela ibhola, ukwenza ngokulinganisa, ukulinganisa ingubo, ukwenza amamaki, ukungena ekolishi, noma ukuqala umsebenzi ofanele. Ngesinye isikhathi, siye sathola ithemba lethu kwabanye abantu. Isikhathi esinzima sethu kufanele sigqugquzele umfutho wethu, hhayi ukuthi kumise ukuhlala kwethu phansi.
Kuvidiyo yanamuhla, u-Tim ukhuluma ngokudumazeka okuyingqayizivele kubantwana nakubazali lapho sizama ukuthola umuzwa wethu wempumelelo kulokho okudlalwa yizingane zethu. Kodwa-ke, inkinga yokubheka izindawo ezingalungile ukuze sizazi ukuthi singobani akuyona into eyingqayizivele. Besilokhu sifuna ukubaluleka kuzo zonke izindawo ezingalungile kusukela u-Adamu no-Eva bathembela inyoka—isiqephu esincane, esinamabala, esihamba phansi sendalo kaNkulunkulu—ukwazi kangcono kunoNkulunkulu Uqobo Lwakhe.
Lapho sizithola siveza izimpilo zethu ezinganeni zethu, sidinga ukubheka ukuvezwa kukaBaba wethu osezulwini ukubaluleka kwethu. Wafaka umntwana wakhe, uJesu, ukuze asitholele indlela ebuyela kuye. Inani lethu lisenganeni, kodwa akusiyo eyethu ingane, yiNdodana kaNkulunkulu ezelwe yodwa, uJesu. Unkulunkulu akasithandi ngenxa yento esimenzele yona, wasibonisa uthando lwakhe ngomuntu owadela ngenxa yethu. Okokuqala, sidinga ukuhlala lapha ukuze sithole umuzwa wethu wangempela wobunikazi. Khona-ke, njengabazali, masilandele isibonelo sikaNkulunkulu futhi sidele izinto esizithandayo ukuze sikhulule izingane zethu ejele lokuphila ukuze zizijabulise. Umsebenzi wokupela awubalulekile kangako.
Misa: Ngiyiveza kanjani impilo yami ezinganeni zami? Ngizokushintshela kanjani ukunaka kwami ukubaluleka uNkulunkulu angibonise kona?
