Ilizwi likaThixo
Isifundo sokuqala · Proverbs 30:5-9
Ilizwi likaThixo lonke livavanyiwe; ungukhuselo kwabo bafumana indawo yokuzimela kuye. Musa ukongeza nto emazwini akhe, hleze akohlwaye, uze ufumaneke ungumkhohlisi. Zimbini izinto endizicelayo kuwe, musa ukundiphika phambi kokuba ndife: Susa ubuxoki nenkohliso kude nam, ungaphi ubuhlwempu okanye ubutyebi; undinike kuphela ukutya endikudingayo; hleze, ndihluthi, ndikukhanyele, ndisithi, 'Ngubani na uYehova?' okanye, ndiswele, ndibe, ndize ndihlambele igama likaThixo wam.
Indumiso · Psalm 119:29, 72, 89, 101, 104, 163
R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam. Susa kum indlela yobuxoki, undibabale ngomthetho wakho. R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam. Umthetho womlomo wakho undixabiseke ngaphezu kwamawaka eziqwenga zegolide nezesilivere. R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam. Ilizwi lakho, Yehova, lihlala ngonaphakade; limi njengamazulu. R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam. Ndizibamba iinyawo zam kuyo yonke indlela embi, ukuze ndigcine amazwi akho. R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam. Ngezimiso zakho ndizuza ukuqonda; ngoko ke ndiyayithiya yonke indlela yobuxoki. R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam. Ubuxoki ndiyabuthhiya ndibunyanye; umthetho wakho ndiyawuthanda. R. Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam.
IVangeli · Luke 9:1-6
UYesu wabiza abalishumi elinambini, wabanika amandla negunya phezu kweekumkani zonke, nokuphilisa izifo; wabathuma ukuba bashumayele uBukumkani bukaThixo, baphilise abagulayo. Wathi kubo, 'Musani ukuthatha nto endleleni, nentonga, nengxowa, nokutya, nemali; ningabi nanzubo ibini. Naphi na apho ningena khona endlwini, hlalani khona, niphume khona. Nabo banganamkeliyo, xa niphuma kuloo mzi, khuphani uthuli ezinyaweni zenu, lube bubungqina ngabo.' Bemka ke, bahamba kwiilali ngeeilali, beshumayela iindaba ezilungileyo, bephilisa izifo kuyo yonke indawo.
Ilizwi lakho, Nkosi, lisisibane seenyawo zam.
Intshumayelo

Kukho umzuzu othi cwaka, umfanekiso onokuthi uwubone ngeso lengqondo: uBenjamin Vo ehlezi phantsi, ephethe ikhompyutha yakhe, ecinga ngendlela yokwakha ikhowudi entsha okanye ecinga ngendlela i-Boeing 737 ephaphayo ngayo. Wayengumfana owayethanda ukwazi ukuba izinto zisebenza njani. Wayengumfana owayenomdla ongenamida, kodwa ngaphezu kwako konke, wayeyindoda encane eyayiphethe intliziyo ethambileyo, intliziyo eyayisoloko ikulungele ukunika. Khumbula loo mfana owayenoncumo olukhanyisayo, owayesoloko enembeko, owayethanda ukuhamba nehlabathi kunye nosapho lwakhe, kwaye owayesoloko ecinga ngabanye ngaphambi kokuba acinge ngaye.

Namhlanje, kwiNcwadi yeZaci, uThixo usikhumbuza into ebalulekileyo: 'Ilizwi likaThixo lonke livavanyiwe; ungukhuselo kwabo bafumana indawo yokuzimela kuye.' La magama asikhumbuza ukuba ubomi bethu abukho ezandleni zethu kuphela. Busezandleni zikaThixo. Kodwa masime apha. Masithethe inyaniso. Sekuphele iinyanga ezintathu uBen esishiye. Iinyanga ezintathu zokuziva ukuba indlu ithule kakhulu. Alan noThao, ndiyazi ukuba usizi luyinto enzima, ngakumbi xa ucinga ngaloo mntwana wakho owayekuthanda kakhulu, owayekulalele xa ubalisa amabali akho, owayekuthanda kakhulu njengoba wayekuthanda ukuhamba nawe, Ryan. Usizi aluhambi ngokwekhalenda. Niyazibuza ukuba kwenzeke ntoni. Niyazibuza ukuba kutheni lo mfana owayephila ngothando, owayephila ngobubele, kufuneka ahambe ngolu hlobo. Niyazibuza ukuba kukhona na eninokukwenza ngcono. Ndicela niphulaphule: Ukugula akulona iphutha lenu. Akukho nto eniyenze ngendlela engalunganga. UThixo akakubeki icala, kwaye noBen akakubeki icala. Susa lowo mthwalo wokuzisola egxalabeni lakho. Awuphosanga nto. Ubenze konke okusemandleni enu ngothando olungapheliyo. UThixo akathumeli ukugula. Ezinye izinto zenzeka ngaphandle kolawulo lwethu, ngaphandle kokuba nabani na enze impazamo. Niyinyaniso, nithandwa nguThixo, kwaye uBen ukhululekile kuyo yonke intlungu.

KwiVangeli yanamhlanje, uYesu ubiza abafundi bakhe abalishumi elinambini, ebanika amandla okunyanga nokushumayela. Uthi kubo: 'Thathani nto endleleni.' UYesu ucela ukuba bathembe uThixo ngokupheleleyo, bangaxhomekeki kwizinto zabo, kodwa bathembe amandla kaThixo. UBen wayengumfana owayesazi ukuba ubomi, ngaphezu kwako konke, bubudlelwane obunzulu phakathi kwabantu nangoThixo. Khumbula indlela uBen awayenomsa ngayo, umzekelo xa wayefuna ukunikela ngayo yonke imali yakhe yasebhange encinci ukuze ancede umalume wakhe uWilliam. Akazange ayiphule loo ngulube yemali, akazange ayikhuphule ngokoqobo, kodwa isipho sasingaphakathi entliziyweni yakhe—isipho somntu owayemi elulwini lokuba angazigcineli nto, kodwa anikele ngayo yonke into ayenayo. Lo moya wokunika waba yindlela yakhe yokuphila. UBen wayengumfana onikela ngayo yonke into yakhe. Nani, nikani konke usizi lwenu kuThixo. Musani ukuzama ukuluthwala lodwa. Vumelani uYesu ukuba abe lulwalwa lwenu.

Ngamanye amaxesha, sicinga ukuba iindlela zikaThixo kufuneka zifane nezi zethu. Kodwa uThixo uthi: 'Iingcinga zam azizo iingcinga zenu, neendlela zam azizo iendlela zenu.' Oku kunzima ukukwamkela xa siphulukene nomntu esimthandayo. Kodwa khumbula, Alan noThao, ukuba uBen uyaqhubeka ekhanya ngomsebenzi wakhe wothando, njengaloo mthombo wamanzi eCà Mau, olethela ubomi kwabanye. Uthando lwakhe aluzange luphele; lusaqhubeka lugeza umhlaba njengolwandle olukhulu. Nani, ningayeki ukuthanda. Nithandeke kakhulu nguThixo. UBen wayengumfana onikela ngayo yonke into yakhe. Nani, nikani konke usizi lwenu kuThixo. Musani ukuzama ukuluthwala lodwa. Vumelani uYesu ukuba abe lulwalwa lwenu.

Ryan, mfowethu omncane, uBen uyamthanda. Ungalokothi uzive ungedwa. UBen uyaqhubeka ekukhathalele. Qhubeka uphila ngesibindi, ube ngumfana owayeyiyo—onemfesane, onobubele, nonesibindi. UBen uyaqhubeka ekhanya ngomsebenzi wakhe wothando. Uthando lwakhe aluzange luphele; lusaqhubeka lukhanya njengolwandle olukhulu. Benjamin, lala ngokuthula. Uthando lwakho lulukhanya olungasoze lwavaleleka. Uthando lwakho, njengaloo mthombo wamanzi, luyaqhubeka luhleli, lusaqhubeka lukhula, kwaye luyaqhubeka lukhanyisa iindlela zethu. Khumbula ukuba uBen uyaqhubeka esidumisela kuThixo, kwaye nathi, simele siphile ngaloo ndlela—ngothando olungagciniyo, ngoxolelo olungapheliyo, nangokholo olomeleleyo. Benjamin, lala ngokuthula. Amen.
