UKUHLALA EKUTHULENI: IMVUME YOKUPHUMA

Kwenzekani lapho “indawo yakho yokuthula” ingenakho ukuthula? Kwenzekani uma ubambeke endaweni engathandeki? Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi umshado omubi, umsebenzi ongajabulisi, ubungane obungafunwa, izinkinga nezingane, noma umndeni wesonto wonakala. Zonke lezi yizilingo esidlula kuzo kanye nezilingo uNkulunkulu angase asenze sihlale kuzo.

Abaningi bethu bahlangabezana nezilingo, futhi sifuna ukuzibalekela ngokushesha. Nokho, uNkulunkulu akasivumeli ngaso sonke isikhathi ukuba senze kanjalo. Ngisho nasezivivinyweni asinalo igunya lokuphuma. Kufanele sithandaze futhi silindele uNkulunkulu ukuba asiphendule ngesiqondiso. Uma uNkulunkulu engaphenduli, lena akuyona imvume yethu yokuhamba.

Sonke siyakuzonda ukungakhululeki futhi sicabanga ukuthi uNkulunkulu kufanele asikhulule endaweni yokuqala yokungakhululeki. Sithanda ukucabanga ukuthi uNkulunkulu akekho kulezo zindawo ezingajabulisi, kodwa leyo yindawo engcono kakhulu yokuMthola. Ngibe nezikhathi eziseduze kakhulu noNkulunkulu lapho ngibambeke endaweni engakhululekile, ngifuna uNkulunkulu ngenhliziyo yonke. Yebo, singase sihoxise isilingo ngokushiya iBandla, ubudlelwano, noma umsebenzi, kodwa uma senza kanjalo, singase siphuthelwe ithuluzi esilidingayo ngenjongo yethu ngaphambili.

Uma uNkulunkulu ekhulume isithembiso empilweni yakho, khumbula ukuthi kukhona amathuluzi ozowadinga ukuze ufeze leso sithembiso. Uma ubekezele ezivivinyweni nasezinsizini, uzophuma uphelele ngakolunye uhlangothi. Vumela uNkulunkulu agxilise kuwe amathuluzi adingekayo ukuze ugcwalise isithembiso sakho. Hlala uthule kuze kube yilapho uNkulunkulu ekukhipha. Uma usendaweni engakhululekile ulindele isiqondiso sikaNkulunkulu, qhubeka uthandaza futhi uthembeke kuNkulunkulu, wethemba ukuthi uzokudonsa ngesikhathi saKhe.

Njengoba siphetha lolu hlelo, akukhathaleki ukuthi “iyiphi indawo” uNkulunkulu unawe kuyo, yenza isifungo sokuhlala ulinde izwi Lakhe. Ungakhathazeki, ungaba yizisulu zezwi okungelona elakhe, futhi ungenciki ekuqondeni kwakho, ngoba, ngesikhathi esifanele, uyokhuluma.
