Izifundo ZeZwi

Isifundo Sokuqala · Isaiah 55:1-3

KUSHO uJehova ukuthi: “Mani nonke enomileyo, wozani emanzini; ninye nina eningenamali, wozani, uthenge, udle; Wozani, uthenge iwayini nobisi ngaphandle kwemali nangaphandle kwentengo! Ngaleyo ndlela kungani nichitha imali entweni engesikho ukudla, nomsebenzi wenu entweni engasuthisi? Ngilaleleni ngokucophelela, nizodla okuhle, umoya wenu uzojabula kokulungileyo. Bhekisani indlebe yenu, wozani kimi; lalelani, ukuze umoya wenu uphile; ngiyokwenza nani isivumelwano saphakade, umusa oqinisekisiweyo kaDavide.”

IHubo Eliphendulwayo · Psalm 145:8-9, 15-16, 17-18

R. Isandla seNkosi siyasisuthesa; siphendula konke esikudingayo. UNkosi unomusa nomhawu, uwephuza ukuthukuthela, unomusa omkhulu. UNkosi muhle kubo bonke, unomusa kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe. R. Isandla seNkosi siyasisuthesa; siphendula konke esikudingayo. Amehlo abo bonke abheke kuwe ngethemba, uthumela ukudla kwabo ngesikhathi esifanele; uvula isandla sakho, nosuthesa isifiso sazo zonke izidalwa eziphilayo. R. Isandla seNkosi siyasisuthesa; siphendula konke esikudingayo. UNkosi ulungile kuzo zonke izindlela zakhe, uncomiwe kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe. UNkosi useduze kubo bonke abambizayo, kubo bonke abambiza ngenhliziyo eyiqiniso. R. Isandla seNkosi siyasisuthesa; siphendula konke esikudingayo.

Isifundo Sabiwe · Romans 8:35, 37-39

Bazalwane: Ngubani oyosahlukanisa nothando lwaKristu na? Ingabe usizi, amashwa, ukushushiswa, indlala, ubunqunu, ingozi, noma inkemba na? Cha, kuzo zonke lezo zinto sinqoba ngaphezulu kakhulu ngaye owasithandayo. Ngoba nginesiqiseko sokuthi akuyikuba ngukufa, noma impilo, izingelosi, izikhulu, izinto zamanje, noma izinto ezizayo, imandla, ukuphakama, ukushona, noma esinye isidalwa esiyokwazi ukusahlukanisa nothando lukaNkulunkulu olukuKristu Jesu iNkosi yethu.

IVangeli · Matthew 14:13-21

Ngaleso sikhathi, lapho uJesu ezwa ngokufa kukaJohane Umbhaptizi, wamuka lapho ngesihlenga waya endaweni engeyona eyabantu eyedwa. Izixuku zakuzwa lokho, zamlandela ngezinyawo zivela emadolobheni azo. Lapho ephuma esihlengeni, wabona isixuku esikhulu, inhliziyo yakhe yaba nomhawu ngabo, welapha abagulayo kubo. Kuthe sekuhlwa, abafundi basondela kuye bathi: “Lendawo iyihlane, nesikhathi sesihambile; musa izixuku ukuba ziye emizaneni zizithengele ukudla.” UJesu wathi kubo: “Akudingeki ukuba bahambe; bapheni nina okokudla.” Bathi kuye: “Sinezinkwa ezinhlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili kuphela lapha.” Wathi: “Ziletheni lapha kimi.” Wayala izixuku ukuba hlala phansi otshanini. Wazithatha izinkwa ezinhlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili, wabheka phezulu ezulwini, wabusisa, wazihlephula izinkwa, wanikeza abafundi, abafundi bazinika izixuku. Bawadla bonke basutha, babuqoqa ucezu olusele—izimbiza eziyishumi nezambili egcwele. Abo babedla babengamadoda azinkulungwane ezinhlanu, ngaphandle kwabesifazane nabantwana.

Isandla seNkosi siyasisuthesa; siphendula konke esikudingayo.

Intshumayelo

Bazalwane abathandekayo kuKristu,

Uyake uzibuze ukuthi kwenzakalani lapho isandla soMUNTU sithinta isandla sikaNkulunkulu?

Esifundweni sokuqala namuhla, umphrofethi uIsaya usimema ngezwi eligcwele imfudumalo nemicabango yokududuza: “Wozani emanzini… wozani uthenge ngaphandle kwemali nangaphandle kwentengo!” Bese kuthi eVangelini, uJesu amele isixuku esikhulu ehlane. Abafundi bathi abantu mabamuke bayozithengela ukudla, kodwa uJesu uthi kubo: “Bapheni nina okokudla.” Lapho bemlethela izinkwa ezinhlanu nezinhlanzi ezimbili kuphela, uKristu uyazibusisa… wonke umuntu udla asuthe, kusale nezimbiza eziyishumi nezambili.

Naku-Roma 8, uPawulu uyamemeza ngethemba elingenakunyakaziswa: “Ngubani oyosahlukanisa nothando lwaKristu na? Akuyikuba ngukufa, noma impilo… esiyokwazi ukusahlukanisa nothando lukaNkulunkulu.”

UNkulunkulu akayidingi ingqondo enkulu yokuba asibusise; udinga inhliziyo evulekileyo nezandla ezikulungele ukwabelana.

Lapho sicabanga ngo-Benjamin Vo, sicabanga ngaleyo nhliziyo enhle eyayigcwele imishini, amaphupho, injabulo nodlame olumnandi. UBen wayenomqondo ohlakaniphe ngokumangalisayo, kodwa into eyayijabulisa kakhulu kubantu abaseduze kwakhe kwakuwukuhleka kwakhe okuncane nendlela wayekhuluma ngayo ngezindiza nezinyoni. Wayehleka ngokujula emoyeni ecabanga ngokudala inkampani yakhe yezindiza ayibiza ngokuthi ‘con chim airlines’… umoya olula, ogcwele amaphupho amsulwa nezinjabulo zomntwana.

Kuleli eliphesheya, ephusheni lika-Dad wakhe u-Alan ngenyanga edlule, babemile emugqeni bethenga i-ice cream, lapho u-Ben ngokwakhe engena ekhokhela u-Dad wakhe ngentokozo magama… ncamashi njengalawo mazwi kaIsaya athi “wozani uthenge ngaphandle kwentengo.” Leyo kwakuyinhliziyo ka-Benjamin: inhliziyo enikeza ukumoyizela nethando ngaphandle kwemibandela.

Sekuphele amaviki ayisikhombisa namuhla kusukela u-Benjamin ahamba waya ekhaya eNkosini ngo-June 13.

Alan no-Thao… inhliziyo yenu ingase ibe buhlungu, kodwa uthando luka-Benjamin alulahlekile. Lolo thando alunakuhlukaniswa nani ngoba luhleli ezandleni zikaKristu unomphela.

Kuwe Ryan, mfo wethu omncane: qhubeka nokumamatheka nokuzikhandla, wazi ukuthi ukuhleka komfowenu nempilo yakhe yokudala kusekhona nawe ezintweni zonke ozenzayo.

Sikhipha ududuzo nakuyonke imindeni, kubantwana abagulayo nakubo bonke abasibukela ezindaweni ezikude abathwele iziphambano ezesindayo. UNkulunkulu uyanesula izinyembezi zenu namuhla.

U-Benjamin Vo ulele ngokuthula, udla eTafuleni laseZulwini eceleni kuka-Saint Carlo Acutis nangaphansi kwengubo yomusa kaMariya Oyingcwele. Masihambe ngethemba elimile njalo. Amen.
