Luisa – Umbethe wentando kaThixo

Ngaba wakha wazibuza ukuba kuluncedo ngantoni ukuthandaza “nokuphila kukuthanda kukaThixo”?^[1]cf. Indlela Yokuphila Kwintando KaThixo Ibachaphazela njani abanye, ukuba kunjalo?

Mkhonzi kaThixo ULuisa Piccarreta wazibuza oku. Ngokuthembeka wathandaza “ngokuthanda kukaThixo”, enikela kuThixo wakhe othi “Ndiyakuthanda”, “Enkosi” yaye “Ndiyakusikelela” kuzo zonke izinto ezidaliweyo. UYesu wakungqina oko "Zonke izenzo ezenziwe kwiNtando yam zisasazeka phezu kwabo bonke, kwaye bonke bathatha inxaxheba kuzo" ^[2]Ngo-Novemba 22, 1925, Volume 18 ngele ndlela:

Yabona, xa, kwakusa, wawusithi: ‘Ngamana ingqondo yam ingaphakama kwiNtando ePhakamileyo, ukuze igubungele bonke ubukrelekrele bendalo ngeNtando yakho, ukuze bonke bavuke kuYo; yaye egameni lakho konke ndikunika ukunqulwa, uthando, ukuzithoba zonke iingqondo ezidaliweyo…’ – ngeli xesha uthetha oku, kwagalelwa umbethe wezulu phezu kwezidalwa zonke, wazigubungela zonke, ukuzisa imbuyekezo yesenzo sakho kubo bonke. . Owu! hayi indlela ekwakukuhle ngayo ukubona zonke izidalwa zigutyungelwe ngulo mbethe wezulu owenziwe yintando yam, efanekiselwa ngumbethe wasebusuku ofumaneka ekuseni phezu kwazo zonke izityalo, ukuzihombisa, ukuzifekethisa, kunye nokuthintela ezo sele ziza kuzitshabalalisa. ibune ngenxa yokoma. Ngokuchukumisa kwayo esibhakabhakeni, ibonakala ibeka ubomi obuchukumisayo ukuze ibenze bahlume. Hayi indlela omnandi ngayo umbethe ekuzeni kokusa. Kodwa okumnandi ngakumbi kwaye kumnandi ngumbethe wezenzo ezenziwa ngumphefumlo kwintando yam. -Ngo-Novemba 22, 1925, Volume 18

Kodwa uLuisa waphendula wathi:

Ukanti, Uthando lwam kunye noBomi bam, ngawo wonke lo mbethe, izidalwa azitshintshi.

Kwaye uYesu:

Ukuba umbethe wasebusuku uthe walungela kakhulu izityalo, ngaphandle kokuba uthe wawa phezu komthi owomileyo, oqhawulwe kwizityalo, okanye kwizinto ezingenabomi, ukuze kuthi, nakuba zigqunywe ngumbethe yaye zihonjiswe ngandlel’ ithile, umbethe uya kuba njengomlilo. nangona ifile ngenxa yabo, kwaye njengoko ilanga liphuma, kancinci kancinci Liyayisusa kubo - ngakumbi ukulunga kombethe owenzelwa yintando yam phezu kwemiphefumlo, ngaphandle kokuba ifile ngokupheleleyo kubabalo. Ukanti, ngamandla aphilisayo enabo, nokuba bafile, Izama ukubafaka umoya wobomi. Kodwa bonke abanye, abanye ngaphezulu, abanye ngaphantsi, ngokwezimo zabo, bayayiva imiphumo yalo mbethe uluncedo.

Ngubani onokuqonda iindlela ezininzi apho umthandazo wethu kwiNtando yobuThixo unokuyilahlela intliziyo elubabalweni ngenkumbulo, ukukrwaqula, ubushushu belanga, uncumo lomntu ongamaziyo, ukuhleka komntwana… Intliziyo kwinyaniso egqwesileyo yeli xesha langoku, apho uYesu alindileyo, ekhwaza ukuba amkele umphefumlo?^[3]“Amadangatye enceba ayanditshisa—ndikhalela ukuba ndigqitywe; ndifuna ukuqhubeka ndiwagalela emiphefumlweni; imiphefumlo ayifuni nje ukukholelwa kukulunga kwam.” (UYesu uya eSt. Faustina, Inceba kaThixo kuMphefumlo wam, Idayari, n. 177)

Ke ngoko, bazalwana noodade abathandekayo (ingakumbi nina bamanzisa iinyawo zenu ngumbethe we “Ukuphila Ekuthandeni KukaThixo”), musa ukudimazeka xa uthandaza ezi zenzo zothando nokudumisa ukubuyisela uthando lukaThixo olubonakaliswa iifiats yeNdalo, yeNtlangulo, neyokungcwaliswa. Ayisiyonto esiziva ngayo kodwa siyenza ngaphakathi ukholo, ukuthembela kwiLizwi laKhe. UYesu uyasiqinisekisa sobabini uLuisa kunye nathi ukuba into esiyenzayo kwiNtando yobuThixo ayichithwanga kodwa inemilinganiselo yecosmic.

In iNdumiso yanamhlanje, ithi:

Imihla yonke ndiya kukubonga, Ndilidumise igama lakho ngonaphakade kanaphakade. Mkhulu uYehova, engowokudunyiswa; Ubukhulu bakhe abunakugocagocwa... Zibulele kuwe, Yehova, zonke izenzo zakho, Bakubonge abakho benceba. (INdumiso 145)

Kakade ke, asiyiyo yonke imisebenzi kaThixo—oko kukuthi thina bantu abenziwe “ngokomfanekiso wakhe”—esimbulelayo size simdumise. Nangona kunjalo, lowo uphila kwaye athandaze “kwiNtando yobuThixo” unikezela kuBathathu Emnye uzuko, intsikelelo, nothando. Zifanele egameni labo bonke, kubo bonke. Ngembuyekezo, yonke indalo ifumana i umbethe lobabalo—enoba lutyekele kulo okanye akunjalo—kwaye indalo iyasondela ngakumbi kwingqibelelo egcumayo ngayo. 

Ebantwini, uThixo ude anike amandla okuba nesabelo ngokukhululekileyo kulungiselelo Lwakhe ngokubaphathisa uxanduva “lokuweyisa” umhlaba nokuba negunya phezu kwawo. Ngaloo ndlela uThixo wenza abantu babe ngoonobangela abakrelekrele nabakhululekileyo ukuze bagqibezele umsebenzi wendalo, bagqibezele imvisiswano yawo ukuze kulungelwe bona nommelwane. -IKatekism yeCawa yamaKatolika, 307; cf. Ukudalwa ngokutsha

Sukudimazeka, ke, ukuba awuyiqondi ngokupheleleyo isayensi yentando kaThixo.^[4]UYesu uchaza iimfundiso Zakhe njenge "Isayensi yesayensi, eyintando yam, isayensi yonke yeZulu", Novemba 12, 1925, Volume 18 Ungavumeli kusasa kwakho (Okuphambili) Umthandazo uba yintloko; musa ukucinga ukuba wena - umncinci kwaye ungabalulekanga emehlweni ehlabathi - awunampembelelo. Phawula eli phepha; phinda ufunde amazwi kaYesu; kwaye nyamezela kule isipho ide ibe sisenzo sokwenyani sothando, intsikelelo, kunye nokunqula; ude uvuye kukubona yonke into njengempahla yakho^[5]UYesu: "... umntu kufuneka ajonge zonke izinto njengezakhe, kwaye abe nenkathalo ngazo zonke." (NgoNovemba 22, 1925, Volume 18) ukuyibuyisela kuThixo ngendumiso nombulelo.^[6]“Ngoko masithi ngaye sinyuse ngamaxesha onke kuye uThixo umbingelelo wendumiso, oko kukuthi, isiqhamo somlomo olivumayo igama lakhe.” (Heb. 13: 15) Kuba uyakuqinisekisa… wena are nefuthe yonke indalo.
