USUKU 4 KWEZINGU- 6

"Ukulinda KukaNkulunkulu."

Imicabango Yombhali:
1. Gxila evesini 1 isikhashana bese ucabanga ngokubaluleka kwaleli vesi. Chaza imicabango yakho ngalokhu.

UHabakuki wayecacile kulokho ayekwenza. Wayelindele ukuthi uNkulunkulu amphendule, kodwa kungani ivesi 1 lalibaluleke kangaka? Impendulo elula ukuthi iyinkomba yokuthi kufanele silindele kanjani izimpendulo zikaNkulunkulu. Wathi esalinde impendulo wama ngqi. Njengomuntu owake walwa ne-Marine, ngiyazi ukubaluleka kokugcina indawo futhi lokho ukwenze ngokucophelela.

UHabakuki akazange avele ahlale nje athi ngizothatha isinyathelo ngokushesha nje lapho ngithola impendulo, kodwa kunalokho wathi ngizoqhubeka ngiqaphe njengoba ngimile ngisalindele ukuzwa kuNkulunkulu. Elinye iphuzu okufanele siliphawule ukuthi uHabakuki wayehlela impendulo yakhe empendulweni kaNkulunkulu. Wayezilungiselela ukuphendula kuNkulunkulu ngandlela thize.

Lokhu kungikhumbuza umkhankaso wepolitiki. Uma ikhandidethi ligijimela ihhovisi elithile, ngokuvamile lilungiselela noma yimuphi umphumela. Ngokuvamile banenkulumo yokwamukela kanye nenkulumo yemvume elungiselelwe. Lokhu kuyindlela yokutshengisa ukuthi bazimisele ukuzithoba egunyeni elibabusayo. Ezikhulwini ezikhethiwe kungukuzikhethela kwabantu futhi kuHabakuki kwakungokukaNkulunkulu.

2. UNkulunkulu wakhetha ukumphendula kanjani uHabakuki futhi lithini ngendlela okumele silalele ngayo?

Njengoba sonke sazi, izindlela zikaNkulunkulu akuzona njalo esizilindele noma esicabanga ukuthi kufanele zibe yikho. UNkulunkulu wanquma ukutshela uHabakuki ukuba abhale okuthile okwakuzokwenzeka esikhathini esizayo. Lokho ngezinye izikhathi kunzima ukukugwinya. Esizukulwaneni sanamuhla sizungezwe ukwaneliseka okusheshayo. Siphila esizukulwaneni esifuna ukubona imiphumela manje. Sifuna ukuzimisela kwenzeke ngokushesha, kodwa lokho akuyona into engcono kakhulu kithi ngaso sonke isikhathi.

UNkulunkulu uyakwazi lokhu futhi wathatha lesi sikhathi ukuze atshele uHabakuki, abekezele, izinto azihlali zinjengoba zibonakala. Kungase kubonakale kuyisimo esingenakwenzeka, kodwa uNkulunkulu uyakwazi akwenzayo. Ukubekezela akubona ubuqotho obulula ukukhuluma nanoma ubani. Ukubekezela kuwukwazi ukuthi ULINDE nini nokuthi unyakaze nini. Ukubekezela kusho ukuthi kwesinye isikhathi kumele ulinde uNkulunkulu aqede ngaphambi kokuthi unqume ukuthutha. Yilokho uHabakuki ayesezobhekana nakho. Kwase kuyisikhathi sokuba uNkulunkulu anyakaze futhi abekezele.

3. Ucabanga ukuthi kungani uNkulunkulu asebenzisa igama elithi “maye” lapho ekhuluma noHabakuki esikhundleni selinye elithi “uqalekisiwe”?

Maye yigama elisetshenziselwa isenzo sokuhawukela. Lokhu kuyinselelo kumfundi futhi kuncane kunesitatimende esijwayelekile. Kulula ukuthi, “bheka yonke impumelelo abanayo, ngifisa sengathi ngabe nginayo.” Lokho uNkulunkulu ayefuna ukukugcizelela kithi kwakuwukuthi abantu kwakungafanele babe nomona, kodwa kunalokho badabuke. Hhayi ngendlela yokuthi siqale sibe ngabahluleli babo, kodwa ngendlela esikhala ngayo sibanxusele. Impilo yesono ayiyona into yokuhalelwa.

U-Kapil Dev, owayengumdlali wekhilikithi wase-India, washo okungcono kakhulu lapho ethi, “Ekuhambeni kwesikhathi, ngikholwa ukuthi ukwethembeka kuwumgomo ongcono kakhulu. Umuntu angaphunyuka ngokungathembeki isikhashana, kodwa ekugcineni, ukwethembeka yikho okuholelayo.” Umuntu ongathembekile uhlale ekhathazekile ngokuthi ukungathembeki kwakhe kuzobuyela kuye futhi leyo akuyona indlela yokuphila impilo uNkulunkulu akubusise ngayo.

4. Singakufaka kanjani lokhu ekuphileni kwethu kwansuku zonke?

Ziningi izindlela ezisebenzayo zokusebenzisa lokho okufundiswa yilesi sahluko, kodwa mhlawumbe into engcono kakhulu ukubekezela kuNkulunkulu ngoba akakulahlanga. Awukwazi ukudebeselela umsebenzi wakho ongokomoya ngenkathi ulindele ukuthi uNkulunkulu aphendule imibuzo yakho. UNkulunkulu uphelele kukho konke, nangesikhathi Sakhe, futhi uma singawunaki umsebenzi wethu ongokomoya ngesikhathi simlindile, asikho kangcono kunenceku enethalenta elilodwa kuMathewu 25:24-26.

24 “Khona indoda eyayamukele ithalente elilodwa yasondela nayo yathi, ‘Nkosi, ngiyakwazi wena. Ungumuntu onzima, uvuna lapho ungahlwanyelanga khona futhi ubutha lapho ungazange uhlakaze khona.

25 Ngakho ngesaba, ngasuka ngalifihla emhlabathini ithalente lakho. Bheka, nakho okwakho.’

26 “Kodwa inkosi yayo yaphendula yathi, ‘Nceku embi, evilaphayo! Uma bewazi ukuthi ngivuna lapho engingahlwanyelanga khona, futhi ngibutha lapho engingahlakazanga khona,
Thembeka kulokho uNkulunkulu akunike khona futhi uzokubusisa. Ungafisi onakho, kodwa kukho konke bonga umdali wendawo yonke.

Inselelo:
Zinike isikhathi namuhla uzindle ngalokho onakho nokuthi ukuthole kanjani. Khuluma noNkulunkulu futhi umazise ukuthi uyabonga. Inselelo yami enkulu ukuthi uNkulunkulu azi ukuthi uzoqhubeka nokuma ngenkathi usalindile.
