YENZA UMYALO KAJESU WOKUGCINA UBE NGOHAMBA PHAMBILI KUWE

Ngakho hambani nenze zonke abafundi, nibabhabhadise egameni likaYise neleNdodana nelikaMoya oNgcwele, nibafundise ukuba bagcine konke engikuyale ngakho. Futhi khumbula, mina nginani njalo kuze kube sekupheleni kwezwe. -NgokukaMathewu 28:19-20 CSB

Lamavesi avame ukubizwa ngokuthi uMyalo Omkhulu ngoba uNkulunkulu usithume ukuba “sihambe siyokwenza abafundi.” UMathewu wabhalwa ukuthi lawa kwakungamazwi okugcina uJesu awakhuluma ngaphambi kokuba enyukele eZulwini.

Ingabe amazwi okugcina umuntu awakhulumayo awahlali ebonakala ebalulekile? Uma othile ebhala Ifa Lokugcina NeTestamente, babhala imiyalo yabo yokugcina nezinkumbulo. Akuwona yini lawo mazwi okungafanele siwakhohlwe?

 Ngenkathi umama wami eshona, kwakuwusuku olufanayo nephathi yami yokugubha iminyaka engu-50. U-Nick wayengenzele leli phathi elimangalisayo nabangani abaningi kakhulu, futhi lapho ngibuyela ekhaya, ngathola izingcingo eziningi ezivela kumfowethu, u-Andrew, nombhalo olula othi: “Umama akasekho.” Angisoze ngakhohlwa indlela engangibonga ngayo ngokuthi omunye umfowethu, uGeorge, wayemsize ku-FaceTime ekuqaleni kosuku. Ngangimtshelile ukuthi ngizomfonela ngemva kwephathi futhi ngimnike umbiko ogcwele ngabo bonke ubumnandi. Ngiyohlale ngiyazisa inkumbulo yokugcina enginayo ngaye—ngibheka ubuso bakhe, ngibona ukumamatheka kwakhe okumnandi nokuzwa amazwi akhe okugcina kimina, “Ngiyakuthanda.”

Bengingewazise kanjani amazwi akhe okugcina?   

Ukhona owake wakunika amazwi okugcina? Ubungenzenjani uma lawo mazwi okugcina equkethe umyalo? Kuthiwani uma lawo mazwi ehlanganisa nokunxusa okunjengokuthi, “Nakekela umfowenu,” noma, “Ubheke unyoko”? Ngeke yini leso sicelo sibe umsebenzi empilweni yakho? Ngeke yini leso sicelo sibe yinto eza kuqala kuwe?

 Kungenzeka yini ukuthi sekuyisikhathi sokwenza amazwi kaJesu okugcina—umyalo wakhe wokugcina—aze kuqala kithi? 

Cabanga nje ukuthi bekuzokwenzekani uma singanikela ngokuphila kwethu kuNkulunkulu ukuze enze ububele bakhe, amandla, ukuba khona, iqiniso nothando lwakhe kwaziwe? Bekuzokwenzekani uma yonke indawo lapho siya khona, konke ukuxhumana ebesinakho, simane sithi, “Nkulunkulu, ngitholakala ngokugcwele. Ngisebenzise, sebenzisa lesi sikhathi, sebenzisa lokhu kuxhumana ukuze udonsele abanye kuwe?" Ucabanga ukuthi angawuphendula lowo mthandazo? Ngiyaqiniseka ukuthi uzokwenza. 

UNkulunkulu ukhethe mina nawe ukuba simazise emhlabeni. Awukho uplani-B. Siyicebo-A likaNkulunkulu. Masihambe futhi senze umyalo wakhe wokugcina ube ngobaluleke kakhulu kithi.

UMKHULEKO:

Nkulunkulu, yonke indawo engiya kuyo namuhla, ngitholakala ngokugcwele. Ngisebenzise kukho konke ukuxhumana, kukho konke ukuhlangana, ukusondeza abanye kuwe. Ngihlale ngikulungele ukuyokwenza abafundi, egameni likaJesu ngiyakhuleka, ameni.
