Ukungabaza uNkulunkuluIsampula

Iqembu Elilungile

Maphakathi nokulungiswa kunesiphithiphithi futhi kunokuxokozela, yingakho sivame ukuqasha iqembu ukuze lisisize. Kunzima ukubhekana nokuvuza uwedwa—sivame ukudinga abanye ukuze basisize sixazulule inkinga.

Ngokufanayo, ukungabaza kuyinto esabekayo ukuyihamba wedwa, futhi uJesu ufuna silethe kuYe kanye nakubangani esibathembayo ezimpilweni zethu.

Uma sisingatha ukungabaza kwethu ngokwethu, kungasiholela ekuthukutheleni nasekungabazeni. Kwesinye isikhathi, size silingeke ukuthi sibhidlize indlu yonke phakathi nenqubo.

Kodwa indlu akuyona inkinga. Ngokufanayo, okholweni lwethu, ukungabaza izinkolelo zethu akusho ukuthi ukholo lwethu silushisa phansi.

Endleleni, singase sembule ezinye izinkolelo ezingahambelani nemiBhalo, futhi njengoPetru, singase sidinge uJesu ukuthi asiqondise endleleni. Kodwa ngenxa yokuthi ukholelwe izinto ezimbalwa ezingelona iqiniso akusho ukuthi imiBhalo ayilona iqiniso.

Njengoba sifundile kuTomase, uJesu usinika imvume yokuba nokholo kanye nokubheka ubufakazi. Singakholelwa ovukweni ngenxa yokholo lwethu kokuthi uJesu ungubani nangenxa yobufakazi obukhona eduze kwalo.

Kodwa ukuzama ukuzulazula emibuzweni yethu ngokwethu kuyindlela yokwenza inhlekelele. Ake sibuyele endabeni kaTomase.

Lapho uTomase ezwakalisa ukungabaza kwakhe, ubelokhu ebhekana nemicabango nemizwa yakhe yedwa. Wayengekho nabanye abafundi ngemva kweminyango ehluthulelwe.

Kodwa kukhona okushintshayo endabeni yakhe. Abafundi abamtshela lezi zindaba ezazimenza azizwe engeyena umfundi ngenxa yokungabaza kwakhe. Kunalokho, lapho uJesu ebonisa uTomase ubufakazi bokuvuka Kwakhe, unabangani bakhe:

Emva kwesonto abafundi bakhe babesendlini futhi, noTomase enabo. … NgokukaJohane 20:26 NIV

Kuningi okungashintsha ngeviki. UTomase wasuka ekubeni yedwa ekungabazeni kwakhe waya ekutholeni ukuqinisekiswa kokholo lwakhe emphakathini.

Asazi kahle ukuthi kwenzekeni kulelo sonto. Asazi noma abafundi bakhuthaza uTomase ukuba angayeki.

Kodwa siyazi ukuthi uJesu wabonakala enabangani bakhe.

Uma uphakathi kokungabaza okujulile, njengoTomase, ungabhekani nakho wedwa. Thola abangani abangakuphathela ukholo lwakho.

KuMarku 2, sibona esinye isibonelo salokhu. Indoda ekhubazekile ayikwazanga ukuya kuJesu, ngakho abangani bayo bamthwala bagubha umgodi ophahleni ukuze bamsondeze kuJesu.

UJesu ebona ukukholwa kwabo wathi kofe uhlangothi: “Ndodana, uthethelelwe izono zakho. NgokukaMarku 2:5 NIV

Uma ungenalo ngisho ukholo lokufika kuJesu, abangani abathembekile bangakusa lapho. Bangabambelela okholweni lwakho lapho uzizwa sengathi awunalutho. Ngakho-ke kulungile ukungabaza. Ungangabazi uwedwa.

Thandaza: Nkulunkulu, ngiyazi ukuthi Usidale ukuba sibe umphakathi. Nginike ubuhlakani nesibindi sokwazi ukuthi ngizophendukela kubani phakathi kokungabaza nokungakholwa kwami. Siyabonga ngokusinika abangani nobudlelwano obungasisekela futhi busithwale lapho sikudinga kakhulu. Egameni likaJesu, ameni.
