Musadandaule ndi chilichonse
"Musadandaule ndi chilichonse, koma pempherani ndi kupempha Mulungu zonse zimene mukufuna, nthawi zonse muziyamikira. Ndipo mtendere wa Mulungu, umene uli waukulu kwambiri umene sitingaumvetse, udzasunga mitima ndi maganizo anu mwa Khristu Yesu." Afilipi 4:6-7 (NCV).
Pamene timakhulupiriradi kuti Mulungu amatisamalira, kuti Iye wakonza moyo wathu mwangwiro, kuti Iye ali ndi mapulani a mtendere osati oipa kwa ife, kuti Iye amatimvetsa ndi kudziwa njira zathu zonse, kuti Iye amamva ndi kuyankha mapemphero athu, ndiye mavesi amenewa akhoza kukhala zenizeni m'moyo wathu.
Koma zimenezo sizikutanthauza kuti zimachitika zokha. Anthu ambiri amadzala ndi nkhawa za chinthu chimodzi kapena china. Nkhawa za ndalama, sukulu, chuma, ntchito, tsogolo, anthu omwe timawasamalira, dziko lapansi lenilenilo, zomwe anthu amaganiza za ife, momwe zinthu zidzatiyendera etc. Zonsezi ndi malingaliro achibadwa kwa munthu. Choncho, ngati tikufuna kupeza mtendere wa Mulungu umene uli waukulu kwambiri moti sitingaumvetse, tiyenera kuumenyera nkhondo!
Limbanani ndi zimene timaona m'chikhulupiriro!
Pamene tapanga chisankho chomwe tikufuna kusiya malingaliro onse a nkhawa, kupsinjika ndi mantha, ndikuzisinthanitsa ndi mtendere, mpumulo, chiyembekezo ndi chisangalalo chomwe tingalandire kuchokera kwa Mulungu, ndipo timakhulupirira kwathunthu kuti ndizotheka - ndiye kuti pali ntchito yoti ichitike. Ngati tapanga chosankhacho, ndiye kuti zimenezo sizikutanthauza kuti sitidzayesedwanso ku zinthu zimenezi. Koma zikutanthauza kuti tsopano ndi nthawi yoti tilimbane ndi zomwe tikuwona m'chikhulupiriro, chifukwa cha zomwe timakhulupirira - ndipo ndiko kukhala omasuka kwathunthu ku nkhawa zonse, kupsinjika ndi mantha.
Malingaliro osakhazikika, osakhazikika angabwere m'maganizo mwathu ponena za mitundu yonse ya zinthu. Satana angakonde ngati "nkhawa za dziko" zimenezi zikanatenga ulamuliro ndi kuwononga chikhulupiriro chathu. Ndizo zomwe akuyesetsa kwambiri kuchita ndipo amadziwa momwe angagwiritsire ntchito mantha athu ndi nkhawa zathu motsutsana nafe. Iye amayesetsa kuti tizilamuliridwa ndi zinthu zimenezi.
Koma mavesi amenewo a m'Afilipi samangopereka lamulo lakuti tisadandaule ndi chilichonse, komanso kupereka yankho! Tingapite kwa Atate wathu wokhulupirika kumwamba, amene akuyembekezera kuti tibwere kwa Iye, ndi "kupemphera ndi kupempha Mulungu zonse zimene mukufuna, nthawi zonse muyamikire." Kumuthokoza Kuti Iye akutsogolera zinthu zonse ndipo adzachititsa zinthu zonse kutembenukira ku ubwino wathu ndi kuti Iye amadziwa bwino kwambiri kuposa ife zimene timafuna.
Tingapemphere kuti Iye adzatipatsa mphamvu kuti tigonjetse mantha amenewa ndi kuti tithe kuika chikhulupiriro chathu chonse mwa Iye. Kuti pamene zinthu sizikuyenda monga momwe tikuonera kuti ziyenera, tikhoza kukhala pa mpumulo chifukwa tikudziwa kuti ndi chifukwa Chakuti Iye, mu chikondi Chake changwiro ndi nzeru kwa ife, ali ndi chinachake chosiyana chokonzedwa. Chinthu chimene chingatithandize kukula, chimene chidzatithandiza kukhala ofanana kwambiri ndi Yesu. (Aroma 8:29.) Tiyenera kulimbana ndi zimenezo, kupempherera zimenezo – mpaka titalandira mtendere wa Mulungu. Pamenepo Satana sangatikhudze! (1 Yohane 5:18.)
Werengani zambiri apa: Mavesi 26 a m'Baibulo amene angakuthandizeni kulimbana ndi nkhawa komanso kupsinjika maganizo
Njira yosavuta yochokera kwa Yesu
Pa Mateyu 6:31-33 (NIV) timawerenga kuti, "Choncho musadandaule, kuti, 'Tidzadya chiyani?' kapena 'Tidzamwa chiyani?' kapena 'Tidzavala chiyani?' Pakuti akunja athamangira zinthu zonsezi, ndipo Atate wanu wakumwamba adziŵa kuti mukuzifuna. Koma funani ufumu wake choyamba ndi chilungamo chake, ndipo zonsezi zidzaperekedwa kwa inunso. Chifukwa chake musadandaule za mawa, pakuti mawa adzadzidera nkhaŵa. Tsiku lililonse lili ndi mavuto ake okwanira."
Imeneyi ndiyo njira yosavuta yothetsera nkhaŵa ndi mantha amene Yesu watipatsa, ndipo ndiko kufunafuna ufumu Wake ndi mtima wathu wonse. Tiyenera kudzipereka ndi mtima wathu wonse kutumikira Iye, kufunafuna chifuniro Chake pa moyo wathu, kumvera malamulo Ake. Ndiye zonse zomwe tikufunikira zidzaperekedwa kwa ife - ndilo lonjezo. Khalani wosumika maganizo kotheratu pa ufumu wakumwamba! Kenako tikugwirizana ndi Davide pa Salimo 119:165 (NIV) kuti "mtendere waukulu ukhale nawo amene amakonda chilamulo chanu, ndipo palibe chimene chingawakhumudwitse."
Choncho, tikhoza kuchitapo kanthu motsutsana ndi nkhawa ndi mantha. Kugonjera ku icho sikudzasintha chirichonse ponena za mkhalidwe uliwonse. Koma pamene chikhulupiriro chathu chili mwa Mulungu, ndiye Iye adzatisonyeza mmene kupyola mkhalidwe popanda kutuluka mpumulo mwa Iye. "M'patseni nkhawa zanu zonse, chifukwa amakuderani nkhawa," limatero pa 1 Petulo 5:7 (NCV).
Sikuti mkhalidwewo udzachoka, kapena kuti zonse zidzachitika monga momwe tikufunira, koma Iye adzatipatsa zonse zomwe tikufunikira kuti tipirire mkhalidwewo, kulimbana nawo m'njira yaumulungu, ndikupeza mtendere wambiri ndi mpumulo ndi kuleza mtima chifukwa cha izo. Mulungu amatilola kupyola m'mikhalidwe imene sitingaimvetse nthaŵi zonse kotero kuti tithe kukula kupyolera mwa iwo.
Ena onse, mtendere ndi chimwemwe zomwe timakumana nazo pambuyo pake si chifukwa chakuti mkhalidwe weniweniwo wathetsedwa, koma ndi mphoto chifukwa tinakhulupirira mawu a Mulungu. Kumene ena asiya ndipo sadziwa chochita, mtima wathu udzakhala wotetezeka mwa Mulungu. Kusinthanitsa malingaliro olemera ndi amantha ndi mpumulo ndi mtendere ndi chimwemwe chimene timalandira mwa Mulungu ndi nkhani yabwino kwambiri!
"Pakuti Mulungu sanatipatse mzimu wa mantha, koma wa mphamvu ndi chikondi ndi wa kudziletsa." 2 Timoteyo 1:7 (BBE).
