Ndani amasankha zochita zathu?
Ambiri aife timakonda lingaliro lakuti ndife olamulira miyoyo yathu. Sitikufuna kuti wina aliyense akhale ndi zonena panyumba zathu, mabanja athu, kapena pazachuma, ngakhale ndikwabwino kukhala ndi wina womuimba mlandu zinthu zikavuta. Lingaliro lakuti talephera kudziletsa pazochitika zinazake limatipangitsa kukhala osamasuka ndi nkhaŵa.
Ndikuganiza kuti tikamawerenga m'mabaibulo ena ndi mabuku ena omwe tiyenera kukhala pansi pa chitsogozo cha Mzimu Woyera, timasowa mtendere. Ndikudziwa kuti Mulungu, m’njira yokulirapo, amalamulira chilichonse mwa zolengedwa zake. Iye ali ndi mphamvu zochitira chirichonse ku chirichonse, chirichonse chimene iye akufuna. Koma kodi iye “amandilamulira”?
Ngati atero, zimagwira ntchito bwanji? Lingaliro langa likunena motere: Popeza ndinavomera Yesu ngati Mpulumutsi wanga ndikupereka moyo wanga kwa Mulungu, ndili pansi pa ulamuliro wa Mzimu Woyera ndipo sindichimwanso. Koma popeza ndimachimwabe, sindingathe kukhala m’manja mwake. Ndipo, ngati sindili pansi pa ulamuliro wake, ndiye kuti ndiyenera kukhala ndi vuto lamalingaliro. Koma sindikufuna kusiya kulamulira moyo wanga. Chifukwa chake ndili ndi vuto lamalingaliro. Zimenezi zikufanana kwambiri ndi zimene Paulo ananena m’buku la Aroma.
Omasulira ochepa chabe (achingerezi) amagwiritsa ntchito mawu akuti control. Ena amagwiritsa ntchito mawu ofanana ndi kutsogolera kapena kuyenda ndi Mzimu. Olemba angapo amalankhula za Mzimu Woyera molingana ndi ulamuliro. Popeza sindine wokonda kusalingana pakati pa zomasulira, ndimafuna kuti nditsike pankhaniyi. Ndinapempha wothandizira kafukufuku wanga (mwamuna wanga) kuti andifufuzire mawu achi Greek. Pa Aroma 8:5-9 liwu lachigriki lotanthauza kulamulira silinagwiritsidwe nkomwe! Mawu achigiriki ndi “kata sarka” (“monga mwa thupi”) ndi kata pneuma (“monga mwa mzimu”) ndipo alibe ntchito yolamulira. M’malo mwake, iwo akuimira magulu aŵiri a anthu amene ali olingalira za thupi ndi osadzipatulira kwa Mulungu, ndi awo okhazikika mtima ndi ofunafuna kukondweretsa ndi kumvera Mulungu. Ndiponso, mawu achigiriki m’mavesi ena amene ndinali kukayikira sanatanthauzenso “kulamulira” ngakhale.
Mzimu Woyera satilamulira; sagwiritsa ntchito chiwawa. Amatitsogolera mofatsa pamene tikudzipereka kwa Iye. Mzimu Woyera amalankhula mu mau achete, achifundo. Zili kwa ife kuyankha.
Timakhala mu Mzimu pamene Mzimu wa Mulungu ukhala mwa ife (Aroma 8,9). Izi zikutanthauza kuti tikhala ndi moyo mwa Mzimu, kuyenda ndi Iye, kusamalira zinthu za Mulungu, kudzipereka ku chifuniro chake m'miyoyo yathu, ndi kutsogozedwa ndi Iye.
Tili ndi chosankha chofanana ndi cha Adamu ndi Hava, titha kusankha moyo kapena imfa. Mulungu safuna kutilamulira. Safuna makina kapena maloboti. Iye amafuna kuti tisankhe moyo mwa Khristu ndipo amalola kuti mzimu wake uzititsogolera pa moyo wathu. Zimenezi n’zabwino ndithu chifukwa tikaipitsa chilichonse ndi kuchimwa, sitinganene Mulungu chifukwa cha zimenezi. Tikakhala ndi chosankha, sitikhala ndi mlandu wina uliwonse koma ife tokha.
