Thola i AppAbalingisi bePhasika: uSimoni PetruIsampula
Ngemva kwesidlo sePhasika, uJesu wacela uPetru noJakobe noJohane ukuba baye naye ensimini yaseGetsemane lapho uJesu ayeyothandaza khona. Wabacela ukuba bamlindele, ukuba bakhuleke, ngalelihora lokugcina. Babekhathele. Kwase kuhlwile. Cabanga nje ukuthi umsebenzi wezinsuku ezimbalwa ezedlule kumele ukuba wamfica kanjani uPetru. Cishe wayesazama ukucubungula ukushintshana okumangalisayo noJudasi. Umngani ayemethemba, owayesehlale nabo iminyaka emithathu, owayelahle konke, wayesezothengisa ngoJesu. Wayengafuni ukukukholwa. Ngakho uPetru wazumeka walala, kodwa wavuswa ukubona umlotha, uJesu okhathele, izinyembezi negazi kugeleza ebusweni Bakhe. Amazwi akhe ahlaba uPetru emphefumulweni, Bewungeke yini uthandaze futhi ulinde?
Kwase kwenzeka ngokuzumayo. Amasosha emashela engadini emnyama. Izimbaqa nezinkemba. Futhi . . . uJuda, umngani wabo, egone uJesu embukisweni wokugcina. Ukwanga kokukhaphela. uPetru wayethukuthele kakhulu, umoya wakhe uphezulu. Umhlaba wakhe ujikeleza. Impilo yakhe ingahlangani. Lokhu kwakungalungile. kungenaqiniso. Kungenabulubgiswa. Ngakho wantshontsha inkemba wagalela inceku yomphristi omkhulu. uJesu akazange akwamukele ukuzivikela kukaPetru Ngaye kodwa waphulukisa indlebe yesitha Sakhe.
Abafundi, sitshelwa kuMathewu 25 noMarku 14, bahlakazeka. Kodwa uPetru noJohane balibala, besebenzisa ukuxhumana noJohane ukuze bangene egcekeni lapho icala likaJesu eliyimfihlo nelingekho emthethweni lenzelwa khona endlini ka-Ananiya. Ingabe uPetru kwakufanele ahambe? Yini enye ayengayenza? Kwakudingeka athole indlela yokuba seduze noJesu, amvikele, amlwele, abonise ubuqotho bakhe.
