Ikani nyumbayo mwadongosolo
Pamene tinali kukonzekera kubadwa kwa mwana wathu woyamba, ndimakumbukira bwino lomwe kukonzanso nyumba yathu. Chodetsa chilichonse chinachotsedwa mosamala ndipo zolakwika zonse zidakonzedwanso. Tizilombo tosafunika tinachotsedwa ndipo zinthu zonse zofunika kwa mwana wobadwa kumene anapeza malo awo. Monga makolo, tinaona kuti ndi udindo wathu kupanga dongosolo ndi kupereka mpata kwa mwana wathu wamkazi wamng’ono kuti atenge malo ake m’banja lathu.
Tangoganizani kuti simungathe kupereka malo okwanira kwa mwana wanu. Umu ndi mmene Yesu anabadwira m’mikhalidwe yosavuta ndiponso yonyozeka kwambiri, m’khola lamdima mmene ankagona modyeramo ziweto. Chochitika chimenechi chikugogomezera kudzichepetsa kwakukulu ndi kudzipereka kwa Yesu, monga momwe Malemba amanenera kuti: “Koma anakhuthula yekha, natenga maonekedwe a kapolo, nafanana ndi anthu; ndipo pozindikirika m’maonekedwe a munthu, anadzichepetsa yekha, nakhala womvera kufikira imfa, ndiyo imfa ya pamtanda.” ( Afilipi 2,7-8. ).
Palibe amene akanatha kum'patsa malo abwino oti abwere monga Mwana wa Mulungu. Munthawi ya Advent timakondwerera ndikudikirira kubwera kwa Yesu. Tikamatero, timakumbutsidwanso za chikondi chodabwitsa cha Atate. Mulungu sanayembekezere kuti tikonze nyumba yathu yauzimu asanatipatse mphatso yamtengo wapatali ya Mwana wake. M’chenicheni, timapeza kuti pamene tilandira mphatso yake ya mtengo wapatali lerolino, tikukwiriridwa ndi mphatso ya chiyeretso: “Koma mwa Iye muli mwa Kristu Yesu, amene anayesedwa kwa ife nzeru zochokera kwa Mulungu, ndi chilungamo, ndi chiyeretso, ndi chiwombolo. "(1. Akorinto 1,30).
Chiyeretso ndikusintha kosalekeza kumene Mulungu amagwira ntchito mwa ife komwe timamasulidwa ku zizolowezi zauchimo ndipo makhalidwe, mikhalidwe, ndi maluso amapangidwa mwa ife. M’mawu ena, Yesu amakonza nyumba yathu. Chifukwa chotikonda, Atate wasankha kutiyeretsa, kutipatula kwa Mulungu, kuti tikhale ana ake okondedwa. Pakubadwa kwa Yesu, ndife ana amene Atate anawakonzera malo. Ndicho chifuniro chake. Mvetserani mmene Ahebri amanenera: “Mwa ichi tidzayeretsedwa kamodzi kokha mwa nsembe ya thupi la Yesu Kristu.” ( Aheb. 10,10).
Kodi kukonzekeretsa “nyumba” yathu kumatanthauza chiyani? Sizokhudza zochita zakunja zokha, koma koposa zonse za kukonzekera mitima yathu. Davide anapemphera kuti Mulungu apende maganizo ake amkati ndi zisonkhezero zake ndi kumutsogolera panjira yolondola: “Mundisanthule, Mulungu, nimudziŵe mtima wanga; mundiyese ine ndi kuwona chimene ndikutanthauza. Ndipo muone ngati ndiyenda m’njira yoipa, ndi kunditsogolera m’njira yosatha.” ( Salmo 139,23-24. ).
Advent imatipatsa mwayi woti tiyime kaye ndikusinkhasinkha za moyo wathu. Kodi ndife okonzeka kulola Yesu kulowa m’mitima mwathu? Kodi tapanga malo kukhalapo Kwake? Yesu anati: “Iye wondikonda Ine adzasunga mawu anga; ndipo Atate wanga adzamkonda, ndipo tidzadza kwa iye, ndi kukhala ndi Iye mokhalamo.” ( Yoh4,23). Mulungu mwini akufuna kukhala mwa ife ndikudzaza miyoyo yathu ndi chikondi ndi chisomo chake.
Zili kwa ife kulabadira pempho la Mulungu. Mofanana ndi Mariya, amene mofunitsitsa anavomereza dongosolo la Mulungu ndipo anati: “Taonani, ine ndine mdzakazi wa Yehova; Zikhale kwa ine monga momwe wanenera.” (Luka 1,38), nafenso tikuitanidwa kugonjera ku chifuniro cha Mulungu. Kudzipereka kumeneku kumalola Mulungu kuchita zozizwitsa m’miyoyo yathu ndi kutipanga kukhala zida za chikondi chake pa dziko lapansi.
Choncho tikamaona kuti nyumba yathu siili bwino, sitiyenera kutaya mtima. Yesu anabadwa kuti adzakumane nafe kumene tili. Iye amafuna kukonzanso mitima yathu ndi kutidzaza ndi mtendere wake: “Idzani kuno kwa Ine nonsenu akulema ndi akuthodwa; Ine ndidzakupumulitsani inu.” (Mat 11,28).
Itanani Yesu kukhala mwa inu. Kupyolera mu moyo wa Yesu mwa inu, mungakhale ndi chimwemwe chenicheni, chiyembekezo ndi chikondi: “Ndipo Mawu anasandulika thupi, nakhazikika pakati pathu, ndipo tinawona ulemerero wake” (Yohane 1,14). Lolani Yesu akonze nyumba yathu kuti ife tikhale pamaso pake monga ana okondedwa a Mulungu.
