Ukukhala komphefumlo: ukufuna uNkulunkulu ngezinkathi zosizi
Kunezikhathi empilweni lapho sizizwa zingakhululekile, njengokungathi yonke into ihamba kahle. Lezi yizikhathi lapho umphefumulo wethu ukhathazekile, nokho sisabambelela ethembeni lokuthi uNkulunkulu uzokwenza indlela. UDavid wahlangabezana naleso sikhathi esinjalo, ememeza ngeHubo 42: 5:
"Uphonsweni phansi, mphefumulo wami? Futhi kungani ukhathazekile ngaphakathi kimi? Ithemba kuNkulunkulu, ngoba ngizomdumisa ngosizo lobuso bakhe." (IHu. 42: 5, NKJV)
Ihubo likaDavide liqala ngokulangazelela okujulile ngoNkulunkulu:
"Njengoba inyamazane ibhulukwa ngemifudlana yamanzi, ngibhekisisa umphefumulo wami kuwe, Nkulunkulu." (IHu. 42: 1, NKJV)
Lapho uDavide efuna iNkosi, wabona izici ezilahlekile zokuphila kwakhe nesiphetho sakhe. Wake waba phambi kukaNkulunkulu futhi wazizwa uneze, igebe, kube sengathi kukhona okushodayo? Kukulezi zikhathi okufanele sikhalele kuNkulunkulu ukuze zigcwalise izikhala ezimpilweni zethu.
IBhayibheli lithi ngo-3 Johane 1: 2:
"Bathandekayo, ngithandazela ukuthi uphumelele kuzo zonke izinto futhi ube nempilo, njengoba nje umphefumulo wakho uyachuma." (3 Johane 1: 2, NKJV)
Ukuchuma komphefumulo wethu kunquma ukuchuma kwempilo yethu. Lapho sizizwa sidangele noma sidangele, kungenzeka ukuthi uNkulunkulu usishukumisela ukuba sifune amandla akhe. Umphefumlo ovuselelekile uholela empilweni evuselelwe. Ukungathandeki kanye ne-Valoumeluzizwa ukuthi kuvela ngokusondela kuNkulunkulu, owembula izindawo ezimpilweni zethu ezidinga ukuphulukiswa.
Izikhathi eziningi, sicabanga ukuthi umphefumulo kanye nomzimba kuyafana, kepha ahlukile. Njengoba nje umoya wethu uyinhlangano, unjalo nomphefumulo wethu - kuwumqondo wokuthi singobani. KuGenesise, uNkulunkulu wambumba umuntu othulini, kodwa kwakungukuphefumula kwakhe kwamenza waba ngumphefumlo ophilayo (UGenesise 2: 7). Kungakho ukuzungeza imiphefumulo ngombuso kubalulekile kakhulu; Impi ingeyomphefumlo.
Ukuze siqinise imiphefumulo yethu, kufanele sivuselele izingqondo zethu. KwabaseRoma 12: 2 kusho:
"Ungazitholi lomhlaba, kepha uguqulwe ngokuvuselelwa kwengqondo yakho, ukuze ubonise ukuthi yini leyo nhlobo enhle nemukelekile kaNkulunkulu kaNkulunkulu." (Roma 12: 2, NKJV)
UDavida wakhala eBukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu ngoba ekwazi ukuthi uma uNkulunkulu ethinta umphefumulo wakhe, uzobuyiselwa. Kwesinye isikhathi, uNkulunkulu uvumela ukungaphatheki kahle ezimpilweni zethu ukuzosishukumisela ezintweni ezijulile kuye. Lapho sizwa lokhu kungaphatheki kahle, kuwuphawu lokuthi uNkulunkulu uyasivumelanisa nenjongo yakhe enkulu.
