Okungaphezu Kwemvelo Nsuku ZonkeIsampula
Kunzima Kunokuba Kudingeke
Umngani wethu, u-Debby Wright, uhola inhlangano yaseVineyard e-UK nomyeni wakhe uJohn. Uyamangalisa ngokuphuma akhulekele abantu. Esinye sezizathu ezenza simthole ekhuthaza kangaka ukwenza kubonakale kuyinto ejwayelekile futhi engenzeka!
Cishe izinyanga eziyisishiyagalolunye ngaphambi kwesikhathi sokubhala, u-Debby wahamba wayolanda iphasela kumakhelwane, u-Emma. Babengakaze babonane wabe esezethula baxoxa nje kancane. U-Debby wabe esebuyela ekhaya futhi wahlala phansi ukuze abe nesikhathi sakhe sokuthula. Lapho ehlala phansi wezwa lokho akuchaza ngokuthi “ukucwayiza” noma “uvemvane” namagama athi “isimo sekhemikhali.” Wacabanga Lokho kufanele kube okuka-Emma. Ngemva kokucabangisisa—kulula kakhulu ukungazinaki lezi zinto—wanquma ukuphindela emuva abuze. Wangqongqoza, futhi lapho umakhelwane wakhe ephendula wathi, “Unjani, Emma, ngibuyile ngoba ngingumKristu futhi ngezinye izikhathi uJesu uyakhuluma nami. Ngisanda kuba nombono omncane kanye namagama athi ‘isimo sekhemikhali.’ Ingabe lokhu kuyinto onayo?” U-Emma wamangala futhi wathi kunjalo. Wachaza ukuthi wayedla amaphilisi alesi simo nokuthi kwakunokudla okuncane ayengakwazi ukukudla. Lapho uDebby ethi uzothandazela ukuphulukiswa, u-Emma wamngenisa.
U-Debby ubeke isandla esiswini sika-Emma. Wamema uMoya oNgcwele kodwa akazange athathe isikhathi eside futhi wakhuluma nalesi simo. Wayala lesisimo ukuthi sime futhi nomzimba ka-Emma wamukele ukudla owawusabela kukho. Akuthathanga ngaphezu kwemizuzu embalwa. Ngemva kwalokho, u-Debby watshela u-Emma ukuthi aqinisekise ukuthi akaphumi kunoma yimuphi umuthi, kodwa wasikisela ukuthi azame ukudla okumbalwa okuhlukile futhi avakashele udokotela uma ebona ukuthuthuka. Wathi, “Ngiyabonga kakhulu ngokungivumela ukuba ngikukhulekele,” wabe esehamba.
U-Debby akazange ambone u-Emma izinyanga ezimbalwa kwathi ngolunye usuku kwaba khona ongqongqozayo emnyango. Kwakungu-Emma. Wayemamatheka njengoba ethi, “Ngeke ukukholelwe lokhu,” (ngakho uDebby athi, “Ngicabanga ukuthi nginguye”), “Bengilokhu ngidla yonke into engifuna ukuyidla. Manje angisekho emithini. Sisanda kubuya eholidini elihlanganisa konke futhi sesidle yonke into. Besijwayele ukuyoziphekela ngoba kwakumele ngibe nokudla okukhethekile. Manje ngingcono ngokuphelele. Noma ngabe yini oyenzile, enye yaleyo “mibono” okhulume ngayo, uma ungaphinda ukuthole, kufanele ukwenze kwabanye abantu. UDebby wathi, “Angenzanga lutho. Kwakungamandla kaJesu.” Kusukela lapho baye bahlangana izikhathi ezimbalwa. U-Emma akakabi umKristu, kodwa usohambweni.
Sobabili sigqugquzelwa abantu abafana noDebby. Sizizwa singenele futhi singaphumeleli uma kuza emandleni okushumayela ivangeli. Nokho, siyaqaphela ukuthi sikwenze kwaba nzima kunalokho obekudingeka. Sinqume ukuphuma sithandazele abantu esibaziyo futhi sikhule sithandazela labo esingabazi. UDebby nabanye bakhombisa ukuthi uma senza iphutha, noma umuntu engelashwa, umbuso usengathuthukiswa. Cishe njalo abantu bayathinteka lapho sithandaza.
Singamanxusa kaJesu. Usithuma ukuba sithuthukise umbuso wakhe. Sihamba negunya lakhe nangoMoya oNgcwele. Masikhule sibe ngabalandeli abamemezela umbuso nabakhombisa umbuso. Makube yithina esizinikelayo ukukhuleka.
