Injabulo InguMuntuIsampula
Impilo Inzima
Unyaka ka-2020 usifundise izinto eziningi ebesingafuni ukuzifunda.
Iningi lethu lidlule ekudumazekeni nasekulahlekelweni ngabantu ebesibazi nesibathandayo. Sonke sabhekana nokwesaba igciwane elingaziwa kanye nemiphumela yalo elilimazayo. Ukuhlala ekhaya 24/7 ngesikhathi sokuvalelwa kuvame ukuzwakala njengejele futhi abantu bazabalaza ngalesi sikhathi, ngisho nangaphezu kokujwayelekile. Ngazi abathile abadivosa, abanye ababuyela emiluthweni, nabaningi ababelwa nokucindezeleka.
Ngenkathi unyaka ka-2020 ubunzima kakhulu, akukhathalekile ukuthi unyaka, impilo, ngokuvamisile, inzima kakhulu. Ingabe uyavuma?
Ukuze sibalekele kukho konke sivame ukwamukela izipesheli ezikhangayo zokuphumula, ukuphumula, nokukhululeka ekucindezelweni, ngethemba lokuthola isilinganiso esithile senjabulo. Vele ungisuse lapha! Iqiniso liwukuthi, ubunzima bokuphila buyaqhubeka ngisho nangemva kokuba lezi njabulo zesikhashana seziphelile. Kunomsebenzi omningi okufanele wenziwe, izikweletu eziningi okufanele uzikhokhe, izingxabano ezengeziwe okufanele zixazululwe, abantu okunzima ukubhekana nabo. Lokho kungenxa yokuthi injabulo yethu ihlale incike ezintweni ezenzekayo: lapho izinto zingenzeki ngendlela—ngendlela yethu—asijabule.
Ingabe ikhona indlela engcono yokuphila kunokujaha injabulo yesikhashana? Ingabe kukhona okuhlala njalo okungancikile kwabanye abantu noma indawo esizungezile? Ngikholwa kanjalo. Kwakuyiqiniso ngoPawulu. Encwadini Yakhe eya kwabaseFilipi, injabulo yabonakala iwukuba khona okuphathekayo okwakusele kuye, ngisho nasetilongweni. Upawulu waze wasebenzisa igama elithi “injabulo” noma “thokozani” izikhathi eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili kule ncwadi eya kubangani bakhe.
NjengoPawulu, ukushikashikeka nobunzima bethu kungokoqobo futhi kubonakala kuza ngokulandelana. Kodwa mhlawumbe, njengoba kwenza uPawulu, singathola injabulo—hhayi endaweni ekhululekile noma ukuphila okunethezekile—kodwa njengoba sibhekana nobunzima nokudumazeka kwethu.
Ngesikhathi uPawulu ebhala le ncwadi, wayesehlangabezane nezilingo eziningi kanye nobunzima kangangokuthi ukuphinde avalelwe ejele kwase kucishe kwaba yinto yakhe entsha. Angiphakamisi ukuthi ukujabulele. Ngikhuluma nje amazwi akhe asitshela ukuthi wathola injabulo nakule ndawo, ngisho nasebunzimeni bakhe. Imisipha yakhe yokholo yayiqinile futhi wayengaphili ngemizwa yakhe. Wayesefunde ukuncika ebunzimeni, avuke aphile ngaphezu kwakho. Wayethole ukuthi injabulo ayihlangene nendawo noma umcimbi kodwa injabulo inguMuntu! uPawulu wayeqiniseka emandleni kaKristu ovusiwe owayehlangana naye kuzo zonke izimo. Ithemba lami liwukuthi ngokutadisha amazwi kaPawulu, namanye, singafunda okufanayo.
Baba, ngiyazi ukuthi anginakho okuningi engingakhonona ngakho, kodwa ngilapha. Impilo inzima ngempela futhi kufanele ngivume, ngezinye izikhathi angikujabuleli ngempela lapho ngikhona nalokho engibhekene nakho. Kunesiphithiphithi, kodwa ngiyazi ukuthi usuyakwazi lokho futhi uyangithanda noma kunjalo. Ungahlangana nami na, khona lapho ngikhona?

Impilo inzima! Siyazabalaza ebudlelwaneni bethu futhi izinqolobane zethu zengqondo nezomzwelo azinalutho.
