Fanizo la matalente: Mayesero alinso matalente
M'fanizo la matalente (Mateyu 25:14-30), Yesu akulankhula za mbuye amene anapatsa aliyense wa atumiki ake chiwerengero chosiyana cha "matalente" (ndalama) kuti azisamalira. Mbuyeyo anafuna kuti iwo apeze phindu ndi matalente amene anaikiziridwa kwa iwo.
Kaŵirikaŵiri timaphunzitsidwa kuti matalente a m'fanizolo ndiwo maluso athu ndi mfundo zamphamvu, monga pamene tikunena kuti winawake ali ndi luso kwambiri. Koma "maluso" angatanthauzenso mikhalidwe imene Mulungu wandipatsa m'moyo, mwayi umene ndingachite chifuniro cha Mulungu.
Ndiyenera kuyesa kudziwona ndekha ndi moyo wanga kudzera m'maso mwa Mulungu: N'chifukwa chiyani Iye anandipatsa thupi ili? Umunthu umenewu? Maluso amenewa? Banja ili? Mikhalidwe imeneyi? Kodi ndingaone kuti ndi maluso amene ndapatsidwa ? Ziyeso ndi zovuta, kapena nthaŵi zabwino ndi chipambano, ndizo mipata yonse imene Mulungu wandipatsa ine ndekha! Kwenikweni, pamaso pa Mulungu, kupyola mavuto ndi ziyeso zambiri kumatanthauza kuti ndapatsidwa maluso ambiri!
Mulungu akufuna kuti ndigwiritse ntchito mwayi umenewu kuti ndikule ndi kupeza chuma chosatha, ndipo Iye wandipatsa zida zochitira zimenezo. Ngati ndili wofunitsitsa, Mulungu amandipatsa Mawu Ake kuti andiphunzitse zochita, ndi Mzimu Woyera kuti andipatse mphamvu zochita. Yesu wapita patsogolo kundisonyeza njira. Mu mkhalidwe uliwonse, ndi "talente" iliyonse (kapena mayesero kapena zochitika) ndapatsidwa, dzina la Mulungu likhoza kulemekezedwa (monga momwe Yesu anachitira pa Yohane 12:27-28), chifuniro cha Mulungu chikhoza kuchitidwa (monga momwe Yesu anachitira pa Luka 22:42), ndipo ndikhoza kupeza "ulemerero wosatha" (monga momwe zalembedwera mu 2 Akorinto 4:17-18).
Kugwiritsa ntchito maluso omwe ndapatsidwa
M'fanizoli, atumikiwo anafunika kuuza mbuyeyo mmene anagwiritsira ntchito matalente amene anawapatsa. Aŵiri a iwo anali atawayang'anira mwanzeru, chotero anapanga phindu. Zimenezi zingayerekezere ndi kugwiritsira ntchito mikhalidwe yanga kupeza chuma chosatha. Maluso amene Mulungu anandipatsa kuti ndigwire nawo ntchito ndi thupi limene ndinalandira komanso mikhalidwe yanga imene ndingachite chifuniro Chake.
Phindu Limene Iye akuyembekezera kubwezera ndiloti tchimo m'moyo wanga limawonongedwa chidutswa ndi chidutswa, ndikuti limalowedwa m'malo ndi chinthu chatsopano, ndi chipatso cha Mzimu (Agalatiya 5:22), moyo wosatha (Yohane 12:25; Aroma 2:6-7), ndipo koposa zonse, kuti mwa zinthu zonsezi, Mulungu amalemekezedwa ndi thupi langa ndi m'mikhalidwe yanga.
Mbuyeyo anayamikira atumiki awiri oyambirirawo, kuti, "Mwachita bwino. Ndinu mtumiki wabwino ndi wokhulupirika. Chifukwa chakuti munali wokhulupirika ndi zinthu zazing'ono, ndidzakulolani kusamalira zinthu zazikulu kwambiri. Bwerani mudzandiuze chimwemwe changa." —Mateyu 25:23 (NCV).
Koma mtumiki wachitatu, yemwe adalandira talente imodzi, adaibisa pansi ndipo sanayese nkomwe kupeza phindu. Mbuyeyo sanasangalale naye kwambiri, kumutcha woipa ndi waulesi, ndipo anati, "Chotsani, ndiye, luso lake ndi kupereka kwa iye amene ali ndi matalente khumi. Pakuti kwa aliyense amene ali nawo adzapatsidwa, ndipo adzakhala ndi zambiri: koma kwa iye amene alibe, ngakhale zimene ali nazo zidzachotsedwa. Ndipo tulutsani mtumiki wopanda phindu mumdima wakunja: kudzakhala kulira ndi kulira kwa chisoni." —Mateyu 25:28-30 (BBE).
Izi zikhoza kuwoneka zovuta komanso zopanda chilungamo. Ndiiko komwe, iye anapatsidwa maluso ochepa a atumiki onse atatuwo, ndipo anabwezera zimene analandira, si choncho? Koma mfundo inali yakuti sanagwiritse ntchito talente yomwe anapatsidwa; anali waulesi ndipo sanafune kugwira ntchito iliyonse. Chiweruzo cha mbuyeyo chinali cholungama ndi cholungama.
Kodi ndimakwirira matalente amene ndapatsidwa?
"Maluso" athu angakhale osiyana kwambiri ndi a ena. Koma sizofunika mtundu wa maluso omwe ndili nawo, chinthu chofunika ndi momwe ndimagwiritsira ntchito talenteyi. Mwinamwake ndine wabwino kwambiri pa chinachake: Kodi ndimagwiritsa ntchito zimenezo kudalitsa ena, kuchita zabwino, kuthandiza ndi kusonyeza njira mu zabwino? Kapena kodi "ndimakwirira" pogwiritsa ntchito ndekha, kuti ndipindule?
Mwinamwake ndimalowa m'mayesero monga matenda, mavuto azachuma, kapena mwinamwake anthu amandidyera miseche kapena kundimvetsa molakwa. Kodi ndimagwiritsa ntchito mayesero awa kuti ndigonjetse kudandaula, kukayikira, kulefulidwa etc. zomwe pafupifupi nthawi zonse zimachokera ku chikhalidwe changa? Kodi ndikuwona mwayi ngati "talente" yomwe ndingathe "kugwiritsa ntchito" kuti ndipeze zipatso za Mzimu monga kuyamikira, chikhulupiriro, chimwemwe etc., kapena kodi "ndimakwirira" mwa kugonjera ku uchimo ndipo osapeza chilichonse cha mtengo wosatha kuchokera ku mayesero?
Maphunziro a moyo kuchokera ku fanizo la matalente
Ndine wofanana ndi mtumiki wopanda pake ngati sindinapezepo kanthu pa mikhalidwe imene Mulungu wandipatsa, mosasamala kanthu za mikhalidwe imeneyo. Ndipotu, kuchita "palibe" n'chimodzimodzi ndi kulola tchimo m'chilengedwe changa kukula, choncho mapeto ake ndi oipa kuposa chiyambi.
Koma tsopano ndikhoza kuchitapo kanthu ndi mwayi ndi chisomo chimene Mulungu wandipatsa. Zotsatira za mikhalidwe yanga, zazikulu kapena zazing'ono, zazitali kapena zazifupi, zolemera kapena zopepuka, nthawi zonse ziyenera kukhala kuti ndimapeza chinachake chamtengo wapatali chosatha kuchokera ku izo: kumene ndinali wosaleza mtima, ndimakhala woleza mtima; kumene ndinali wosayamika, ndimakhala woyamikira; kumene sindinathe kupirira enawo, ndikhoza kuwakonda tsopano; kumene ndinali wofooka, ndakhala wamphamvu.
Pamenepo ndidzamva mawu odabwitsa amenewo ochokera kwa Mbuye wanga, amene ndatumikira moyo wanga wonse: "Munachita bwino. Ndinu mtumiki wabwino ndi wokhulupirika. Chifukwa chakuti munali wokhulupirika ndi zinthu zazing'ono, ndidzakulolani kusamalira zinthu zazikulu kwambiri. Bwerani mudzandiuze chimwemwe changa."
