Iphasika Lethu Lesinkwa Lansuku zonke: Umusa OmangalisayoIsampula
Izenzo Zokubonga
Bambalwa abantu ababengazi kangcono ngisewumfana kunoFrancis Allen, umfundisi owangiholela kuJesu Kristu. Wayeyisibonelo esiseduze esiphelele sobumnene bothando lukaNkulunkulu. Ekuqaleni, uFrancis wabona ukuthambekela kimi kokuthi ngizame “ukuthenga” imvume ngokusebenza kanzima kunalokho obekulindelwe futhi ngenze okungaphezu kwalokho abantu abakucelile. “Lezi yizici ezinhle zokupha abanye njengezipho,” wayengitshela, “kodwa akufanele nanini ukusebenzisele ukuthenga ukwamukelwa nothando kubantu—noma kuNkulunkulu.”
Ukuze angisize ngiqonde lokhu, wangitshela ukuba ngifunde isithembiso sikaJesu esikuMathewu 11:30 sokuthi “ijoka lakhe lilula ukuthwala”—inkulumo ngezinye izikhathi ebonakala ilula kakhulu ukuba ibe yiqiniso. Khona-ke, ekhomba kuMika 6:6–8, wathi: “Manje funda lokhu futhi uzibuze ukuthi zikhona yini izipho ongamnika uNkulunkulu Angenazo kakade.”
Yebo, impendulo ingucha. Wabe esechaza ukuthi uNkulunkulu akanakuthengwa—isipho somusa singesihle. Njengoba lokhu kuyiqiniso, kufanele kube yini ukusabela kwethu? “Ukwenza ukulunga, ukuthanda umusa, nokuhamba noNkulunkulu wakho ngokuthobeka.” ( Mika 6:8) Ngafunda ukuthi lezi kwakuyizenzo zokubonga—hhayi okokuthenga. Umusa ukhululekile futhi ukuphila ngokwethembeka kuyimpendulo yethu yokubonga.
