Kuyaziwa: Izinsuku ezingu-10 Zokuthola UbuwenaIsampula

Ingabe kukhona obaluleke ngempela kuwe owake wakhumbula igama lakho engxoxweni? Mhlawumbe bekungumngani omusha, i-barista yase-Starbucks, noma ukuthandayo esikoleni. Uyakhumbula ukuthi kwakwenza wazizwa kahle kangakanani ukwaziwa kuleso simo ngegama? Uyakhumbula ukuthi kwakwenza wazizwa kumnandi kangakanani ukuzwa izwi lomuntu omthandayo likhuluma igama lakho, likukhumbule, likwazisa, noma likuncoma? Kukwenze wazizwa waziwa futhi wabaluleka.

Lokho kuwuhlobo lwendlela lamavesi akuJohane 10 azizwa ngayo. UJesu usitshela ukuthi uma sizinikela kuye futhi silalela izwi lakhe uzosazi. Cabanga ngoMsindisi womhlaba azi kahle ukuthi izwi lakho lizwakala kanjani!

Ukuze umuntu azi izwi lakho, kufanele ube nobudlelwano naye. Cabanga ngakho; uma uthole amazwi aqoshiwe abo bonke abangani bakho osondelene nomndeni bese kufanele uqagele ukuthi elikabani izwi, ungakwenza? Ngikubheja ungaqagela iningi awo. Kungani? Ngoba ukhuluma nabo usuku lonke, nsuku zonke! Kungokufanayo nangoJesu; lapho uchitha isikhathi esiningi Naye, yilapho silazi ngokwengeziwe izwi Lakhe! Ngezwa amazwi acashuniwe kanye ashintsha ngokuphelele indlela engangicabanga ngayo ngezwi likaNkulunkulu. Lathi: “Awukwazi ukukhononda ngokuthi awulizwa izwi likaNkulunkulu uma iBhayibheli lakho livaliwe.” YEEEEEEh! Lowo musho wangishaya kakhulu ngiqala ukuwuzwa. Kufanele sizwe kanjani izwi likaNkulunkulu uma singekho eZwini lakhe, sifunda amazwi akhe, futhi sichitha isikhathi naye emthandazweni nasekudumiseni? Asikwazi, futhi ngeke!

Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi uNkulunkulu ufuna ukukwazi! Ufuna ukwazi izwi lakho; Ufuna ube yingxenye yeqembu lakhe. Ufuna uqobo lwakho lonke—hhayi nje izingxenye ezinhle—zonke izingxenye!

UJesu ufuna ukuthi ulazi izwi alidalile kuwe, kodwa ukuze uvule izwi lenhloso yakho kumele wazi izwi lakhe kuqala. Yiba imvu; landela uMalusi wakho. Landela uJesu, futhi ngeke wazi ukuthi kunjani ukuya endaweni ethile ngaphandle komuntu olaziyo izwi lakho.
