Ukuphila: Impilo yeNjabuloIsampula

Impilo inzima, akunjalo? Ukudumazeka kusicindezela ngonya nangokungapheli kuyilapho ukudangala kusihlukumeza nsuku zonke. Noma ngingayiqondi lento obhekene nayo namuhla, kodwa ngiyamazi owazi ubuhlungu bakho futhi ngijwayelene naye ozwa ukukhala kwakho okuhlukumeza amathumbu. Empilweni yami, ngingakuqinisekisa, ngidlule ebuhlungwini obujulile lokhu uNkulunkulu uvune isithelo esinamandla kakhulu.

Ngokushesha uPetru wasusa ukunaka kwezihambi ezishushiswayo ebunzimeni ezazibhekene nazo futhi ngokudelela kukho konke okwethu kuKristu Jesu. Ngithole, ohambweni lwami oluyinselelo kulolu hlangothi lwezulu, isidingo esibalulekile sokunquma indlela yokuphila komcabango wami. Ngingacabanga ngami, noma ngicabange Ngaye. Ngingakwazi ukucabangisisa ngokudumala kwami, noma ngihlale ethembeni laKhe. Ngingakwazi ukuzindla ngobuhlungu bami, noma ngijabulele izithembiso Zakhe. Kufanele ngikhethe lokho okuzogcwalisa imicabango yezinsuku zami kanye namazwi emithandazo yami. Kufanele ngikhethe.

UPetru uthi lapho nijabula ekulingweni, ukholo lwenu luyaqina futhi luhlanzwe. Ukholo lwakho eNkosini uJesu Kristu luyoba ukubonakaliswa okugqamile kwamandla nenjabulo. Ubuwazi ukuthi ukholo lwakho luyinto ebaluleke kakhulu empilweni yakho yonke? Futhi lapho ujabula kakhulu noma usemlilweni wokuphila, ukholo lwakho lukhula ngenani.

Ukukholwa kwakho, njengempahla yakho kamoya eyigugu kakhulu, kumele kudlule emlilweni ukuze ukubaluleka kwakho kubonakale empilweni yakho. Ukuhlupheka noma ukulingwa akuzange kuhloselwe ukukhipha amandla ezimpilweni zethu, kodwa kwakuklanyelwe ukwandisa amandla okholo lwethu. Izilingo azihlali phakade futhi igolide lasemhlabeni liyabhubha kodwa ukholo lwethu lungunaphakade futhi ingoma yethu ayipheli.

Injabulo esinayo njengamakholwa kuKristu ayichazeki. Awekho amazwi omuntu akwazi ukudlulisa injabulo yethu ngenxa Yakhe. Azikho izichasiso noma izandiso ezinamandla okuchaza intokozo engaqondakali etholwa yilabo abangabakaJesu. Injabulo yethu ingase ingabonakali, kodwa sizochitha konke ukuphila kwethu kobuntu sizama ukuyiveza.
