Thembela kuJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho

Themba kuJehova ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho, ungenciki kokwakho ukuqonda. Mazise yena ezindleleni zakho zonke, uyakuqondisa imikhondo yakho. 

IzAga 3: 5-6

Lamavesi afinyelela emnyombweni wempilo yobuKristu. Ungathembela eNkosini ngokugcwele? “Ngayo yonke inhliziyo yakho” kusho ngakho konke. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi yini ezayo—enhle, embi, noma engenandaba; kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ibuphi ubuhlungu noma ukuhlupheka; kungakhathaliseki ukuthi yisiphi isilingo noma ukudumazeka, ungathembela eNkosini ngenhliziyo yonke? Okunye ukuncika kokwakho ukuqonda, okuwukuhumusha yonke into ngombono wakho. 

Udinga ukukhumbula lokhu: UNkulunkulu uyakuthanda, futhi isithembiso sakhe siwukuthi kuzo zonke izinto usebenza ndawonye ukuze kuzuze wena. Kufanele umethembe ngalokho. Unganciki ekuqondeni kwakho futhi wethembe ukuhumusha kwakho. Cabanga ngempilo kaJobe. Walahlekelwa yizo zonke izingane zakhe, impahla, impilo, futhi umkakhe nabangane bakhe bamehlula. 

Kodwa ngemva kwayo yonke imibuzo nokuhlupheka kukaJobe, lapho ekugcineni ehlangana noNkulunkulu, angasho nje ukuthi, “Ngizwile Ngawe ngokuzwa kwendlebe, kodwa manje iso lami liyakubona. Ngakho-ke ngiyaphenduka.” Konke kwehlela ekuthembeni nje kuNkulunkulu nasebuhleni Bakhe. Unganciki ekuchazeni kwakho izinto ezenzekayo empilweni. Themba njalo uJehova. Kukho konke Mvume. Uzovula indlela ongakaze uyilindele. Lesi isithembiso saKhe.
