Thola i AppUkulungiselela Izinhliziyo Zethu NgePhasika: Ukuzinikela ngesikhathi sokuzilaIsampula
"Usuku 33: Ubizo"
Ngemuva kokuchitha izinsuku nobusuku noJesu, wazibonela ngawakhe amazwi nemisebenzi yakhe, uPetru wakwazi ukuvuma ngokuphelele ukuthi uJesu unguKristu, othenjisiwe kaNkulunkulu. Labo abavela kuJesu babengaqinile ezinkolweni zabo, bevame ukukholelwa ukuthi ungumprofethi, kepha labo ababemlandela njalo babazi ukuthi wayengesona nje isithunywa, kodwa umyalezo uqobo. Ngemuva kokuvuma kukaPetru, uJesu wazama ukubasiza baqonde ukuthunywa kwakhe nokuthi kwakubukeka kanjani ukumlandela, kodwa uJesu wayengelona uhlobo lukaMesiya ababelulindele, futhi ukumlandela kwakungeyona indlela ababecabanga ukuthi kuzoba ngayo.
Ujesu ukhipha ikhwelo elicacile kulabo abangamlandela, ukuthi ukuthembeka kuye kudinga ukuzincisha wena, uthathe isiphambano sakho nsuku zonke futhi umlandele. Ngaleso sikhathi futhi manje amazwi akhe anzima. Siphila esikweni elisifundisa ukuthi sizidumise futhi silandele induduzo, ukulawula nokwenelisa izifiso zethu ngaphezu kwakho konke okunye. Ukuzidela nokulandela izinto zikaNkulunkulu kungazwakala njengokufa, kepha yilokho uJesu asibizela kukho. Usitshela ukuthi ukumlandela kuzodingeka sidedele konke ukulawula futhi sikhuthazelele ukuhlupheka nokwenqatshwa, kepha futhi uthembisa ukuthi lokhu kuzosenza simthande. Kuyena, ukunqoba kuyofika ngokuhlupheka. Ujesu usibizela ukuthi sizolahlekelwa yimpilo yethu njengoba sibazi, kodwa kuphela ukuze asinike impilo yangempela nephakade kuye. Uyezwa ukuthi uyakubiza? Ngabe uzimisele ukuzidela uthathe isiphambano sakho ukuze umlandele? Uyethemba ukuthi uzokuholela ekuphileni?
Umkhuleko
Nkulunkulu onomusa, siyabonga ukuthi usembulele iNdodana yakho, ukuthi uJesu unguKristu, umkhululi esikudingayo sonke. Sicela usinike umusa esiwudingayo ukukulandela. Wena wedwa ufanelekile futhi sifuna ukukunika izimpilo zethu, kodwa sidinga usizo lwakho ukwenza kanjalo. Egameni likaKristu, Amen.
