Ngesikhathi ngibuka: Kwamiiswa izihlalo zobukhosi, noMdala Wezinsuku wahlala esihlalweni sakhe. Izambatho zakhe zazimhlophe njengeqhwa, nezinwele zekhanda lakhe zazinjengoboya obuhle; isihlalo sakhe kwakungamalangabi amlilo, amavili aso eyimlilo evuthayo. Umfula wamlilo wawugeleza uvela phambi kwakhe; izinkulungwane nezinkulungwane zazimsebenzela, nezixuku ngezixuku zazimi phambi kwakhe. Inkantolo yahlala, nezincwadi zavulwa.

UJesu wathatha uPetru, uJakobe, noJohane umfowabo, wabahola banyukela entabeni ephakeme bebodwa. Wagudluzwa ngesimo phambi kwabo; ubuso bakhe bwakhanya njengelanga, nezingubo zakhe zaba mhlophe njengokukhanya. Bheka, kwabonakala kubo uMose noEliya, bekhuluma naye. U-Petru wase ethi kuJesu: “Nkosi, kuhle ukuba lapha. Uma uthanda, ngizokwakha amatende amathathu lapha, elakho, elikaMose, nelikaEliya.” Wathi esakhuluma, bheka, ingubo yelifu elikhanyayo yabambesa, kwase kuvela izwi efwini lithi: “Lona uNdodana yami ethandekayo, engithokoza ngayo; mlaleleni.” Kwathi ukuba abafundi bazwe lokho, bawa ngobuso babo, besaba kakhulu. Kodwa uJesu weza, ubathinta, wathi: “Phakamani, ningasabi.” Kwathi lapho bami amehlo abo, ababonanga muntu ngaphandle kukaJesu yedwa. Ngenkathi behla entabeni, uJesu ubayala wathi: “Nogutshela muntu ngalo mbono, kuze kuphakanyiswe iNdodana yomuntu kwabafileyo.”

Intshumayelo

Bazalwane abathandekayo kuKristu,

Uyake uthole mzuzu lapho umhlaba omnyama uvuleka, uveze inkazimulo nesibani esimangalisayo sokukhanya kukaNkulunkulu?

eVangelini lanamuhla le-Transfiguration, uJesu uhola abafundi bakhe banyukela entabeni ephakeme. Phambi kwamehlo abo, ubuso bakhe buqala ukukhanya njengelanga, nezingubo zakhe ziba mhlophe qwa njengokukhanya uqobo. Efwini elikhazimulayo, uBaba uthumela izwi elithi: “Lona uNdodana yami ethandekayo, engithokoza ngayo; mlaleleni.” Bese kuthi esifundweni sesibili uPetru asikhumbuze ukuthi leli zwi lilitebhisile inhliziyo yabo “njengesibani esikhanya endaweni emnyama, kuze kuse nenkanyezi yasa iphume ezinhliziyweni zenu.”

Lapho abafundi bewa phansi besaba kakhulu, uJesu akaqhelelani nabo… Usondela kubo, ubathe phezu kwamahlombe ethi: “Phakamani, ningasabi.”

Yeka indlela uKristu asithinta ngayo ezindaweni zethu ezijulile zokwesaba nasemthunzini wezinyembezi.

Lapho sicabanga ngo-Benjamin Vo, sibona intsha eyayinomqondo othize okhanyayo nekhono elimangalisayo elafana nekhandlela elikhanyayo. UBenjamin wayenengqondo ebukhali yasemhlambini yokubala nobuchwepheshe, ekhula ngezifundo nangamaphupho amakhulu… Kodwa ukukhanya kwakhe okwangempela kwakungesiyo kuphela inhliziyo yakhe ehlakaniphile, kodwa namehlo amene nemoyizelo okhanyisa ikhaya nakuzo zonke izindawo lapho wayemi khona nesibhakabhaka esiluhlaza sikhanya.

UBenjamin wazama njalo ukuphokophela phezulu, ebheka phezulu ezintabeni nakungcwele. Wayenokufana noSaint Carlo Acutis ngenhliziyo nemiphefumulo efuna ukukhanya kukaKristu.

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

Alan no-Thao… lapho ubumnyama bosizi bubonakala bumboza insuku zenu, izwi laseZulwini nalo liyasho kini namuhla: u-Benjamin usekukhanyeni lapho ubuso bukaJesu bukhanya khona njengelanga. UJesu usondela kini ebumnyameni bokuphatheka kabuhlungu, wena usondela ukunithinta emahlombe ethi: “Phakamani, ningasabi.” Uthando luka-Benjamin nobumene bakhe abunyamalelanga; buhleli ezandleni zikaKristu njengesibani esiyokhulisa inkanyezi yasa ezinhliziyweni zenu.

Kuwe Ryan, mfo wethu omncane: ngesikhathi ubona ukukhanya kwelanga esibhakabhakeni, khumbula ukuthi umfowenu u-Ben uphila eNkosini, eceleni kuka-Saint Carlo Acutis, njalo ekubuka ngenjabulo.

me Sikhipha ududuzo nakubo bonke abazali nabathandekayo abathwele iziphambano ezisindayo ezindaweni zonke, nabantwana abagulayo. Kwangathi ukukhanya kwasentabeni engcwele kungagxila ezinhliziyweni zenu.

U-Benjamin Vo ulele ngokuthula ekhanyeni elingacimeki laseZulwini, ethola intokozo eTafuleni laseZulwini naphansi kwengubo yokuvikelwa uMariya Oyingcwele. Amen.
