Ngenjabulo Ebekwe Phambi Kwakhe: Inkonzo YephasikaIsampula
UJesu wathatha abafundi abathathu waya nabo ensimini yaseGetsemane. UPetru, uJakobe noJohane babenaye eNtabeni yokuGuqulwa isimo, futhi uJesu wayebadinga ukuba bame Naye emthandazweni.
Kodwa ngenkathi uJesu ethandaza ... balala. Ngenkathi uJesu ejuluka amaconsi egazi ... bahona. Ngesikhathi uJesu ekhala ngobuhlungu ... amadoda amathathu ayewathembile ayelele.
Bazi ukuthi wayesezokufa ngesihluku njengesigebengu, balala baconsa amathe.
UJesu weza kubafundi bakhe kathathu… futhi babelele kathathu.
Sicasulwa izenzo ezibonakala ziwubudedengu zikaPetru, uJakobe noJohane futhi nokho siye sabanjwa kangaki sizinikela ebumnyameni bokuziphatha okuxekethile lapho uJesu ebiza igama lethu?
Sibuka umabonakude uma kunemithandazo okumele kuthandazwe.
Sifunda amanoveli uma kukhona abantu esibathandayo.
Siyahona ngenkathi isiko lethu libhidlika.
Njengoba uMsindisi wayedinga oPetru, uJakobe kanye noJohane ... uMsindisi wakho uyakudinga. Ukuphathise amandla omthandazo. Ukuphathise uMyalelo Omkhulu. Ukuphathise iVangeli.
Kule Nsimu, uJesu wakhuleka, “Kungabi njengoba ngithanda mina ... kodwa njengoba kuthanda Wena.”
Ingabe wake wazama ukuthandaza lowo mthandazo lapho ukuphila kwakho kubhidlika? Uke wathandaza yini uthi, “Baba, mayenziwe intando yakho,” lapho ubhekene nezimo ezinonya?
Uma kungekho okunye esikufundayo kulesi senzakalo sempilo kaJesu, kufanele sifunde ukuthandaza lapho abanye belele futhi sifise intando kaBaba ngaphezu kwakho konke okunye.
Lapho ekugcineni uJesu ebavusa laba abathathu ebuthongweni babo, babona ukukhanya kwenyanga kwesixuku esasikhuphuka emthambekeni osentshonalanga weNtaba Yomnqumo. Ngemva kokuba isixuku, esiholwa uJuda, sibambe uJesu, uPetru wahlala egcekeni lompristi omkhulu. Yilapho uPetru aphika khona uJesu izikhathi ezintathu.
Kazi uPetru ubengamphika yini uJesu ukube wakhuleka kunokuba alale. Kazi impilo yami ibingahluka kanjani uma bengingathandaza... kunokuthi ngilale.

UmBhalo
Mayelana naloluHlelo
Isonto lokugcina ekuphileni kukaJesu kwakungelona isonto elivamile. Kwakuyisikhathi sokuvalelisa okubabayo, ukuphana okukhulu, ukukhaphela okunonya nemithandazo eyazamazamisa izulu. Okuhlangenwe nakho kuleli sonto, kusukela ngeSonto lePalm kuya oVukweni oluyisimangaliso, njengoba sifunda ukulandisa kweBhayibheli ndawonye. Sizojabula kanye nezixuku ezitaladini zaseJerusalema, simemeze ngokuthukuthela kuJudas namasosha amaRoma, sikhale nabesifazane esiphambanweni, futhi sigubhe njengoba kusa ngePhasika!
