IZwi LikaNkulunkulu
Isifundo Sokuqala · Jeremiah 30:1-2, 12-15, 18-22
Ulayezo olwathi luza kuJeremiya luvela eNkosini, luthini: Isho kanje iNkosi, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ukuthi: Bhala phansi zonke izwi engilikhulumile kuwe encwadini. Ngoba isho kanje iNkosi: Inxeba lakho alilapheki, ukulimala zakho kubuhlungu kakhulu; Akakho omela indaba yakho, akukho muthi wesilonda sakho esimpompozayo, akukho ukwelashwa kuwe. Bonke abathandazi bakho bakukhohliwe, abasafuni ukukufuna. Ngokuba ngikushayile njengoba kushaya isitha, ngakujezisa kabuhlungu; Yini ukhala ngenxeba lakho na? Ubuhlungu bakho abunasijeziso. Ngokuba ngobuningi bezono zakho, nangezono zakho eziningi, ngikwenze lokhu kuwe. Isho kanje iNkosi: Bheka! Ngiyakubuyisa amatende kaJakobe, ingxenye yezindlu zakhe ngiyakuyihawukela; Umuzana uyakwakhiwa kabusha entabeni, nezigodlo zibuyiselwe njengokomhlaba wazo. Kuyozwakala kubo izindumiso yokubonga, nokuhleka kwabantu abajabulayo. Ngiyakubandisa bangabi ngabancane, bangabi ngabancanyana, ngokuba ngiyakubakhazimulisa. Abantwana bakhe bayakuba njengasekuseni, nebandla lakhe liyakuma liqine phambi kwami; ngiyakujezisa bonke abacindezeli babo. Umholi wabo uyakuba ngowakubo, umbusi wabo uvele phakathi kwabo. Lapho ngimbiza, uyakusondela kimi; ngokuba ngubani omunye ongasondela kimi asungene engozini yokufa na? kusho iNkosi. Nizokuba abantu bami, nami ngiyakuba uNkulunkulu wenu.
IHubo Eliphendulwayo · Psalm 102:16-18, 19-21, 29, 22-23
R. UNkosi uyakuyakha kabusha iSiyoni, abonakale enkazimulweni yakhe yonke. Izizwe ziyakushaya uvalo egebheni lakho, Nkosi, nabo bonke amakhosi omhlaba enkazimulweni yakho, Lapho iNkosi isiyakhile iSiyoni, iabonakale enkazimulweni yayo; Lapho ibheke umthandazo wabaswazi, engadelelanga umthandazo wabo. R. UNkosi uyakuyakha kabusha iSiyoni, abonakale enkazimulweni yakhe yonke. Makulotshelwe isizukulwane esizayo lokhu, nezidalwa ezizayo mazidumise iNkosi: “INkosi yabuka phansi isekuhlaleni kwayo okungcwele, usezulwini yabuka umhlaba, Ukuze izwe ukububula kweziboshwa, ukukhulula labo abagwetshelwe ukufa.” R. UNkosi uyakuyakha kabusha iSiyoni, abonakale enkazimulweni yakhe yonke. Abantwana bezinceku zakho bayakuhlala, nensalo yabo iyakuhlala phambi kwakho, Ukuze igama leNkosi lishunyayelwe eSiyoni, nendumiso yayo eJerusalema, Lapho abantu bebuthana kanyekanye, nezembuso ukuba basenzele iNkosi. R. UNkosi uyakuyakha kabusha iSiyoni, abonakale enkazimulweni yakhe yonke.
IVangeli · Matthew 14:22-36
UJesu wazenzela abafundi bakhe ukuba bangene esisekeni bashaye phesheya kolwandle phambili kwakhe, lapho esamukelisa izixuku. Esebenzise lokho, wenyuka entabeni yedwa ukuyothandaza. Lapho kuhlwile, wayekhona yedwa. Kanti isiseke, sesingamawala amaningi kude nogbe, sasishaywa amagagasi, ngokuba umoya wawumelene naso. Ngosuku lwesine lomlindo ebusuku, waza kubo ehamba phezu kolwandle. Lapho abafundi bembona ehamba phezu kolwandle, bashaqeka, bathi: “Ispiriti!” bamemeza ngokwesaba. Ngokushesha uJesu wakhuluma kubo wathi: “Yibani nesibindi, yimina; ningasabi.” UPetru wamphendula wathi: “Nkosi, uma kunguwena, ngiyale ngize kuwe phezu kwamanzi.” Wathi: “Woza.” Kodwa lapho ebona ukuthi umoya unamandla, wesaba; ezoqala ukucwila, wamemeza wathi: “Nkosi, ngisindise!” Ngokushesha uJesu welula isandla sakhe wambamba, wathi kuye: “O nawe ukukholwa okuncane, ushonelani ngokungabaza na?” Esegenile esisekeni, umoya wanqamuka. Labo abasandleni esisekeni bambaza bethi: “Ngasempela, uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu.” Besewele, bafika ezweni laseGenesaretha. Lapho abantu bakuleyo ndawo bemmukela, bathumela ilizwi kuzo zonke izwe ezizungezile. Bawaletha kuye bonke abagulayo, bamncenga ukuba bathinte kuphela umphetho wengubo yakhe; bonke abawuthintayo balolonga basindiswa.
UNkosi uyakuyakha kabusha iSiyoni, abonakale enkazimulweni yakhe yonke.
Ihumusha

Bazalwane abathandekayo kuKristu,

Ngabe ukhona umzuzu lapho izwi likaNkulunkulu lifika lithinta inhliziyo yakho ngokududuzeka okungummangaliso?

Esifundweni sokuqala namuhla, uNkosi ukhuluma ngomphrofethi uJeremiya, enikeza isithembiso esijulile kubantu abazwa ubuhlungu nezilonda: “Ngiyakubuyisa amatende kaJakobe… kuzozwakala kuwo izindumiso nokuhleka kwabantu abajabulayo. Nizokuba abantu bami, nami ngiyakuba uNkulunkulu wenu.” Bese kuthi eVangelini likaMathewu, abantu bawo wonke umuzana uGenesaretha baletha abagulayo kuJesu, becelemba ukuba bathinte ngisho umphetho wengubo yakhe kuphela… bonke abawuthintayo basindiswa, bamukela ukuthula.

Ezulwini nasemhlabeni, ukuthinta umphetho womusa kaKristu kulethela inhliziyo yethu ukuphola nokuhleka okusha.

Lapho sicabanga ngo-Benjamin Vo, sibona intsha eyanikezwa inhliziyo ekhanyayo, ehlala ifuna ukusondela kokungcwele. Siyakhumbula indlela uBen ayenothando ngayo lokuhamba nomndeni wakhe omncane—u-Dad Alan, u-Mom Thao, nomfowabo u-Ryan—bephuma kuyo yonke imimango nezwe. Lapho bevakashela ezindaweni ezingcwele ezifana ne-Lourdes ne-Vatican, uBenjamin wayehamba ngenhliziyo evulekile, efuna uNkulunkulu ezindaweni zonke, ephethe lowo moyizelo wakhe womusa nemfudumalo.

UBen wayeyazi intokozo yokuba phakathi kwalabo uNkulunkulu abathi ngabo: “Nizokuba abantu bami.” Umphetho wengubo kaJesu waba seduze kwakhe ohambweni lwakhe lokuphila.

Sekuphele amaviki ayisikhombisa namuhla kusukela u-Benjamin abizelwa ekhaya ngo-June 13.

Alan no-Thao… usizi olusenhliziyweni yenu lukhulu, kodwa isithembiso sikaNkulunkulu kuJeremiya asikho kude nani. UNkulunkulu akakhohlwa izinyembezi zenu. Ukuhleka nokubonga u-Benjamin abenipha kona kusekhona ezandleni zikaKristu, futhi uJesu unomusa wokunelula isandla sakhe kini nsuku zonke.

Kuwe Ryan, mfo wethu omncane: qhubeka ukhumbula izikhathi ezinhle enaziphila nina "abane abaphelele" ezindaweni ezahlukene zomhlaba. Umfowenu u-Benjamin uyakubuka njalo ecelemba ukuthula kwezulu phezu kwakho.

Sikhipha ududuzo olufudumele nakubo bonke abazali nabasekude abathwele iziphambano ezisindayo, nabantwana abagulayo. Kwangathi umphetho wengubo kaJesu ungabakhanyisela.

U-Benjamin Vo ulele ngokuthula ecelekazi lika-Saint Carlo Acutis eTafuleni laseZulwini, embozwe ingubo engcwele kaMariya Oyingcwele. UNkulunkulu makagcine bonke ngomusa wakhe. Amen.
