Eduze Kwabaphuke Inhliziyo: Indlela KaNkulunkulu Yokuphulukisa Ekudabukeni KwenhliziyoIsampula

Funa Ukufaneleka Kwakho KuKristu

ULabani wayenamadodakazi amabili; igama lenkulu lalinguLeya, igama lencinyane lalinguRaheli. ULeya wayenamehlo abuthakathaka, kepha uRaheli wayebukeka, emuhle. UJakobe wayethanda uRaheli… Genesise 29:16-18 NIV

Cabanga ngokuthi kungaba njani ukuzama njalo ukuthola ukwamukelwa komunye umuntu. Uzama ngokusemandleni akho ukuze ulingane futhi ube muhle ngokwanele-kodwa kungakhathaliseki ukuthi wenzani, awukwazi ukuhlangabezana nalokho abakulindele. 

Yilokhu kanye okwenzeka kuLeya.

Ngenxa yokuthi kwakuvamisile ngesikhathi uLeya ephila, bobabili yena nodadewabo uRaheli babeshade nendoda okuthiwa uJakobe. Nakuba ayezinikele kubo bobabili, uJakobe wamthanda kakhulu uRaheli—futhi uLeya wayekwazi kahle lokho. 

UNkulunkulu wabona ukuthi uLeya wayengathandwa umyeni wakhe, ngakho wambusisa ngezingane eziningi (okwakuthi, ngokwesiko lakhe, zazizomphakamisa). Kodwa esikhundleni sokugxila eqinisweni lokuthi iNkosi yabona ukubaluleka kwakhe futhi yambusisa, uLeya waqhubeka ebeka konke ukubaluleka kwakhe kulokho umyeni wakhe ayekucabanga ngaye. Lokhu sikubona endleleni aqamba ngayo amadodana akhe. 

ULeya wakhulelwa, wazala indodana, waqamba igama layo ngokuthi uRubeni, ngokuba wathi: “UJehova ukubonile ukuhlupheka kwami; impela umyeni wami usezongithanda manje". Genesise 29:32 CSB

Ngomntwana ngamunye, uLeya wayenethemba lokuthi uJakobe uzomthanda ekugcineni. Kodwa naphezu kwemizamo yakhe, akazange amnikeze ayekufuna. 

Kwesinye isikhathi, kulula ukuvumela izinto ezifana nokunye okubalulekile, izingane, umsebenzi, noma isimo somphakathi sichaze ukubaluleka kwethu. Kodwa ukuthola ukubaluleka kwethu kwangempela kulokho abanye abantu abakucabangayo ngathi akunakwenzeka—asisoze sazizwa sanelisekile. Okuwukuphela kwendlela esingathola ngayo ukwaneliseka kwangempela yilapho sivumela umbono kaNkulunkulu ngathi uchaze ukubaluleka kwethu.

Sibona uLeya ethola lokhu lapho eqamba ingane yakhe yokugcina—ekugcineni uqala ukubona ukuthi uJehova umazisa kangakanani, futhi kulokhu, ukhetha ukumdumisa ngakho. 

Wabuye wakhulelwa, wazala indodana, wathi: “Ngalesi sikhathi samanje ngiyakumdumisa UJEHOVA." Genesise 29:35 ESV

Uma siqhubeka nokubeka ukubaluleka kwethu ekwamukelweni noma othandweni lwabanye, asisoze sayithola injabulo iNkosi esifunela yona. Nguye kuphela ongagcwalisa izinhliziyo zethu ngokweqiniso futhi asilethele ukuqinisekiswa esikudingayo. 

Esikhundleni sokugxila ezintweni ezisizungezile esingaphezu kwamandla ethu, asikhethe ukugxila kuNkulunkulu—ngoba Nguye kuphela ongasisiza sithole umuzwa wokubaluleka esiwudingayo.

Thandaza:

• Cela uNkulunkulu akusize ubone ukuthi ukwazisa kangakanani ngempela.
• Mtshele ukuthi ufuna ukukudela.
• Mdumiseni ngezinto ezinhle Akuphe zona.
