Ingabe uke uzizwe udonswa izinkomba eziyisigidi ngenxa yezidingo eziqhubekayo empilweni yakho? Kwesinye isikhathi kuzwakala sengathi sinezibopho eziningi kunesikhathi esinazo, futhi kusishiya sizizwa siphelelwa amandla futhi singaphumuli.

Kodwa kuthiwani uma kunendlela engcono? 

uJesu wayegxile emsebenzini Wakhe—ukufuna nokusindisa abalahlekile—kodwa akazange asheshe, akhungatheke, noma aphazamiseke. Ngakho uma sibizwe ukuba silandele uJesu, kunengqondo ukuthi izimpilo zethu kufanele zibonise izinto eziza kuqala Zakhe kanye nejubane lakhe. 

Singafunda izinto ezimbalwa ngendlela uJesu ashisekela ngayo umsebenzi Wakhe kuMarku isahluko sesibili. Ichaza uJesu ehamba—engasheshi, kodwa ehamba—waze wathola umthelisi owaziwayo ogama lakhe linguLevi. 

Iningi labantu laliyomlahla futhi limdelele uLevi ngenxa yomsebenzi wakhe. Cishe wayeqola abantu imali yabo futhi wachazwa ‘njengekhohlakele. UJesu wayenendlela ehlukile. 

UJesu umema uLevi ukuba amlandele. Bahamba baya endlini kaLevi, lapho uJesu edla khona nezinye izoni eziningi ezaziwayo nabathelisi. AbaFarisi—abaholi benkolo bangaleso sikhathi—bathukuthele. 

Abaqondi ukuthi kungani uJesu edla nezoni, futhi uJesu uvele aphendule: 

… “Ngabe abaphilile badingi udokotela, kodwa abagulayo. Angizanga ukuzobiza abalungileyo kodwa izoni. NgokukaMarku 2:17

uJesu wayecacisile ngokuthi kungani ezele futhi ukuthi kungani engezanga. UJesu akezanga ukuzothokozisa abaholi benkolo. Weza ukuzophilisa abalimele, abalahlekile, nabaphukile.

Njengoba ucabanga ngempilo yakho, ungakuchaza njengokujahile noma okungajahile? Ungehlisa kanjani ijubane ukuze ulandele ngokweqiniso ezinyathelweni zikaJesu? 
3. UJesu akazange avumele imibono yabanye abantu ukuba iphazamise ukulalela Kwakhe. Lapho abaFarisi bemgxeka, akazange aziphendulele noma athukuthele. Wayecacile kodwa eqinile ngokuthi kungani eza. Wahlala exhumene nomsebenzi Wakhe naphezu kwemibuzo yabanye abantu. Ngakho, ake sicabange lokhu: Ingabe sivumela imibono yabanye ukuba ibaluleke ngaphezu kokulalela kwethu uNkulunkulu?
