Chipata cha mwayi ndi kumvetsetsa

Maumboni adzulo ndi abwino koma maumboni alero ndi abwino; komabe maumboni a mawa ndi abwino kwambiri. Maumboni onse ndi odabwitsa ndi ku ulemerero wa Mulungu. Anthu ambiri masiku ano amaganiza kuti amamvetsa Mulungu koma ayenera kuganiziranso. Ntchito ya mpingo yomwe ambiri agulitsidwa sikuwonetsa kumvetsetsa. M’mipingo ina masiku ano, amavina kwambiri, abusa amachita ngati oimba ena akudziko; ngakhale kutengera masitayelo awo ovina. Ena amavina mowonjezera mavinidwe awo achikhalidwe ndi zovala kuvina, onse akudzinenera kuti amalambira Mulungu. Simumva uthenga woona kuchokera kwa otere ndipo ndikutsimikizira aliyense, kuti ngati uchimo ndi chiyero zilalikidwa pansi pa kudzoza kotsutsa, kuvina kumeneko kudzatha nthawi yomweyo ndipo thanzi lauzimu lidzabwerera. Dziwani pamene Yesu ali pakhomo panu chifukwa chimenecho ndi chipata chanu cha mwayi.

1^st Lemba la Akorinto 13:3 limati: “Ndingakhale ndipereka chuma changa chonse kudyetsa osauka, ndipo ndingakhale ndipereka thupi langa alitenthe m’moto, koma ndiribe chikondi, sindipindula kanthu.” Pali zinthu zomwe timachita, ngakhale mu mpingo zomwe sizimachokera ku chikondi. Mukayimba ndi kuvina, zikhale kwa Yehova; ndipo inu nokha mungathe kudziweruza nokha moona mtima. Masiku ano pali mavidiyo mu mpingo, kuti akuthandizeni kudzipenda nokha ngati chidwi chili pa inu kapena pa anthu ena kapena pa Ambuye. Komanso mpingo si njira yoyendamo m'mafashoni monga momwe dziko limachitira. Pamene mukutengera dziko lapansi ndi kubweretsa otere mu mpingo, chenjerani kuti musakhale paubwenzi ndi dziko lapansi, (Yakobo 4:4). Muli m’dziko lapansi, koma simuli a dziko lapansi (Yohane 17:11-17). Ambiri amavina m’matchalitchi mosamvetsetsa. Davide anavina mozindikira ndi mboni za Yehova pamaso pake. Pamene mukuvina kumbukirani maumboni amene mukutsamirapo kuchokera kwa Ambuye; kuvina mozindikira.

Panali anthu awiri, mwamuna ndi mkazi amene ankamvetsa zinthu zokhudza Mulungu komanso mmene angamuthandizire. Pamene muchita zinthu popanda chikondi chaumulungu, ndiye kuti kumvetsa kumasowa. Kumbukirani Marita, mu Luka 10:40-42, iye analemetsedwa ndi ntchito zambiri (ntchito), ndipo anadza kwa Yesu nati, Ambuye, kodi simusamala kuti mlongo wanga wandisiya nditumikire ndekha? Umuwuze iye tsono kuti andithandize. Ndipo Yesu anayankha nati kwa iye, Marita, Marita, uda nkhawa nubvutika ndi zinthu zambiri; ndipo Mariya anasankha gawo labwino, limene silidzachotsedwa kwa iye,” Vesi 39 limati: “Ndipo anali ndi mbale wake wotchedwa Mariya, amenenso anakhala pa mapazi a Yesu, namva mawu ake. Ndani akudziwa zomwe Yesu anali kunena kapena kulalikira kwa Mariya yemwe Marita adaphonya, Chipata cha Mwayi chija chomwe chimabwera kamodzi mu nthawi ya moyo. Marita anali wotanganidwa ndi ntchito (anayiwala mphamvu zomwe zimadyetsa 4000 ndi 5000 ndikulera mchimwene wake ndi kuti kuphika sikunali cholinga chake); Koma Mariya anasankha kumva Mau, chikhulupiriro chimadza pakumva mawu, osati mu unyinji wa zochita. Mariya akukumbukira kuti munthu sadzakhala ndi moyo ndi mkate wokha, koma ndi mawu onse otuluka kwa Mulungu, ( Mat. 3:4 ); uko kunali kumvetsetsa. Marita ankakonda Ambuye koma analibe chidziwitso cha mphindi ndi chipata cha mwayi (Yesu) patsogolo pake.

Yesu amayang'ana ndipo amadziwa mitima ya anthu kwa iye. Njira yokhayo imene Mariya akanakulitsira chikhulupiriro chake inali kumvetsetsa nthawi ya kuchezeredwa kwake, ndi chipata cha mwayi patsogolo pake. Iye anasankha kukhala pa mapazi ake kuti amve ndi kuphunzira mawu a Mulungu omwe ndi mkate wochokera kumwamba. Kodi mukulefulidwa ndi zochitika za mu mpingo kotero kuti simukumva ngakhale mawu a Mulungu? Ambiri amapita kutchalitchi koma sakhala pa mapazi a Ambuye; ndimo sanamva zolalikidwa, tshifuka anali opanda nzeru. Zindikirani mumtima mwanu kuti ngati mupita kumwamba ndi kukakumana ndi Mariya kungakhale kosangalatsa kumufunsa zimene Yesu anaphunzitsa tsiku limene anakhala pa mapazi ake ndipo Marita anali wotanganidwa.

Mtumwi Yohane sanachitepo chozizwitsa chilichonse cholembedwa, kupatulapo pamene anaima ndi Petro pa nkhani ya munthu wolumala. Yohane sananene kalikonse kokha Petro ndi amene analankhula. Nthawi zonse Yohane anali wodzichepetsa, ndipo sankafuna kuti adziwike. Anangonena zochepa kapena sananene koma anamvetsa kuti chikondi ndicho chinsinsi. Yohane anali wachikondi ndi chidaliro mwa Ambuye kotero kuti anaika pa mapewa ake. Umenewu unali mwayi kwa mtima womvetsa zinthu. Iye sankafuna kuchita zozizwitsa kapena kukopa chidwi. Palibe amene ankakayikira kuti ankamvetsa komanso kukonda Yehova.

Pamene ena anathawa kuti apulumutse miyoyo yawo pa nthawi yoipitsitsa ya Yesu Yohane analipo. Pa Yohane 18:14, pamene Yesu anali pamaso pa Kayafa wansembe wamkulu; Yohane anali pamenepo. Petro anali kunja, ndipo Yohane anapita nalankhula ndi iye amene anali mlonda pachipata ndipo analowetsa Petro. ndipo sanalankhule zambiri kokha pamene zinali zofunika. Kodi ophunzira ena anali kuti pamene pa mphindi zomaliza pa mtanda, (Yohane 19:26-27); Yesu anati, “Mkazi, taonani, mwana wanu: ndi kwa wophunzira (Yohane) onani amako. Ndipo kuyambira ola lomwelo wophunzirayo adamtenga kupita naye kwawo. Yesu anapereka chisamaliro cha amayi ake a padziko lapansi kwa munthu amene akanatha kumukhulupirira ndiponso amene ankamukonda monga Mbuye wa onse. Kumbukirani Yohane 1:12, “Koma onse amene anamlandira iye, kwa iwo anapatsa mphamvu yakukhala ana a Mulungu, kwa iwotu, akukhulupirira dzina lake.”

Kuchokera m’malembo a Yohane, mudzazindikira chimene Ambuye adaika mumtima mwake; ndi Yohane wokhala pa mapazi ake, namva mawu ake, osayankhula zambiri. Ambuye atangokwera kumwamba, Herode anapha Yakobo mbale wake wa Yohane. Izi zikanapangitsa kuti Yohane aganizire kwambiri za Yehova. Ndiponso chirichonse chimene Yohane anachimva ndi kuuzidwa ndi kusonyezedwa pa Chisumbu cha Patmo anachisunga mu mtima mwake ndipo Yakobo sanali kumeneko kukhala gwero la chiyeso chogawana nacho chotero. Zina za mavumbulutso a Patmo zinali zinsinsi zosalembedwa za Mulungu zimene Yohane anamva koma analetsedwa kuzilemba, kufikira nthaŵi yoikika ya Mulungu. Kumbukirani Mat. 17:9, pa Phiri la Kusandulika, Petro, Yakobo ndi Yohane anaona ndipo zingamveke zina: Koma Yesu anawalamula kuti, “Musauze munthu masomphenyawo, kufikira Mwana wa munthu atauka kwa akufa. Yohane anasunga chinsinsi ichi ndipo anapezeka wokhulupirika ndi woyenera kusunga chinsinsi cha zimene mabingu asanu ndi awiri analankhula pa Chiv. Iye anamva ndipo anali pafupi kulemba koma anauzidwa kuti asatero. Yohane anathamangitsidwa kuti akafe pa Patmo koma Mulungu anaitembenuzira kutchuthi chaulemerero, chakumwamba. Kuyang'ana; umboni ndi kulemba buku la Chivumbulutso, loperekedwa ndi Yesu Kristu iyemwini. Yohane sanalembe zozizwa, zizindikiro ndi zodabwitsa.

Kodi muli pa mapazi a Yesu ndi kumva mawu ake a moyo? Posachedwapa munthu aliyense adzayankha yekha kwa Mulungu. Chipata cha mwayi wachipulumutso ndi ubale ndi Yesu chikadali chotseguka koma chidzatsekedwa nthawi iliyonse, ndi kumasulira kwadzidzidzi kwa okhulupirira owona. Khalani inu oyera monga Ine ndine woyera, ati Yehova; ndipo oyera mtima okha adzaona Mulungu (Mateyu 5:8). Zindikirani chipata chanu cha mwayi (Yesu Khristu).
