Vibrant: A Life of Calling

USUKU 1 KWEZINGU- 5

Ngikholwa ukuthi okujule ngaphakathi kwenhliziyo ethambile yomuntu isifiso esimnandi sokuthi ukhethwe othile. Ebangeni lesithathu, silangazelela ukukhethwa eqenjini le-kickball. Ebangeni lesihlanu, silangazelela ukukhethwa ukuba sibe umngani omkhulu womuntu. Esikoleni esiphakeme, yeka indlela esikulangazelela ngayo ukukhethwa njengedethi yothile kupromu! Njengoba sikhula, silangazelela ukukhethelwa ezinye izinto ezinjengomfundaze, umsebenzi noma umshado.

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ubani omunye okulahlile, qiniseka ukuthi ukhethwe yiLowo okuthanda kakhulu futhi okwazi kakhulu! Unkulunkulu ukukhethile njengomntanakhe kanye nomngani wakhe oseduze.

Ubaba ukukhethe ngokukhethekile kulesi sikhathi emlandweni ukuba ube sethimbeni Lakhe futhi wamukelwe luthando Lwakhe. Ukukhethile ukuthi udanse empilweni Naye; Ukhethe wena ukuba ube yinhloso yesibusiso Sakhe nomusa. Wena, mngani wami, ukhethwe Nguye obaluleke kakhulu.

Ukwazi ukuthi ukhethiwe nguBaba kushintsha konke ngawe. Kuguqula ubuwena futhi kukhulise inhloso yakho. Njalo ekuseni lapho uvuka, umcabango wokuqala owela ebuchosheni bakho obufiphezile kufanele kube, Ngikhethwe nguBaba! Njengoba uya endlini yokugezela ukuyoxubha amazinyo, isisho sokuqala esizwakalayo kufanele sithi, “Ngikhethwe nguBaba!”

Ufuna ube ngowakhe uqobo ngakho wakukhetha ngaphambi kokuqala kwesikhathi.

Ubaba akakukhethanga kuphela, kodwa futhi wakuqamba igama. Isikhathi sakho esidlule asinalo ilungelo lokukuqamba igama, futhi ukwehluleka kwakho akunawo amandla okukukhomba. Okunguye kuphela onamalungelo akho okuqamba igama yiLowo okuthandayo kangangokuthi angakukhethela okwaKhe uqobo.

Uthando lukaNkulunkulu alunqunyelwe ukuziphatha kwakho; yingqikithi yesimo Sakhe. Awukwazi ukuvimbela uthando lukaNkulunkulu ngawe, ukunciphisa uthando lwakhe ngawe, noma ukuminyanisa uthando lwakhe ngawe.

Ukhethiwe. Wena ungcwele. Uthandwa kakhulu.

Njengoba ulwela ukuphila impilo enempilo noma ukuphila okuchichimayo, uqiniseka ngokwengeziwe ngobizo Lwakhe nokukhetha kwakho.
