Paulo analemba mu Agalatiya 5:16 (NAS), "Koma ine ndikuti, yendani mwa Mzimu, ndipo simudzachita chilakolako cha thupi." Thupi ndi mawu omwe Baibulo limagwiritsa ntchito pa chikhalidwe chathu chaumunthu chochimwa ndi zilakolako zake zadyera - zinthu zonse mwa ife zomwe zimatsutsana ndi Mulungu ndi chifuniro Chake.
Kudzikonda kwathu kapena "kudzikonda" kuli ngati malo olamulira omwe amatumiza zambiri za "mauthenga". Mauthenga ndi zochita zomwe zimachokera ku ego yathu zonse ndizokhudza ife eni - monga kungoganizira tokha, kuyang'ana pansi pa ena, kunena mabodza kuti tipeze phindu, kuyesa kupeza chitamando ndi chivomerezo, kupangitsa anthu kutizindikira, ndi zina zotero. Ichi ndi "chilakolako cha thupi", kapena zokhumba za chikhalidwe chathu chaumunthu chochimwa - ndipo chikhalidwe chathu chaumunthu chimakhala ndi zofuna zosatha ndi ziyembekezo.
Mwinamwake tingalamulire zikhumbo zauchimo zimenezo pamlingo winawake, koma kwakukulukulu, chibadwa cha anthu chimalamuliridwa ndi zikhumbo zauchimo zimenezo. N'chifukwa chake, anthu akachimwa, nthawi zambiri timawamva akunena kuti, "Ife ndife anthu okha!"
Koma Paulo analemba kuti ngati tiyenda mwa Mzimu, sitifunikiranso kuchita zikhumbo zimenezi. Mukamayenda ndi Mzimu, mumaganiza ndi kuchita mosiyana ndi anthu ena m'mikhalidwe ya moyo.
"Yendani mwa Mzimu!"
Mukamayenda, mumayamba kwinakwake kenako mumapita patsogolo. Ngati mukufuna kuyenda mwa Mzimu, choyamba muyenera kulandira Mzimu. Mzimu umene tikukamba pano ndi Mzimu Woyera. Mzimu Woyera ndi mphamvu yeniyeni — monga momwe zimakhalira pamene crane imakweza katundu wamkulu kuchokera m'chombo kupita kumtunda. Ngati mutapeza mphamvu imeneyi m'moyo wanu, ndi chiyambi cha mbali yatsopano komanso yosangalatsa kwambiri ya moyo wanu.
Anthu ambiri amene amalandira Mzimu umenewu amangofuna kusangalala ndi mphamvu zomwe alandira, monga mwana amene amangofuna kusewera. Koma Mzimu Woyera si chinthu choseweretsa. Iye ndi thandizo kwa anthu amene akufuna kufika kwinakwake mu kuyenda kwawo Christian.
Mzimu Woyera umatipatsa mphamvu yosenza zolemetsa zazikulu ndi zovuta. Komanso ndi wotsogolera. Iye amadziwa njira yomwe imatitsogolera kutali ndi chilichonse chomwe chiri chovulaza ndi choipa, kulinga ku zomwe zili zodalitsika ndi zabwino kwa omwe akutizungulira. Mzimu umatidzaza ndi chimwemwe ndi mtendere. Timakhala osangalala kwambiri, ndipo anthu amene timakhala nawo amaona zimenezi.
Mzimu udzatikumbutsa ndi kutipatsa mphamvu
Tonsefe timakumana ndi mavuto m'moyo. Ndani sanamvepo kuti zimene zikuchitika panopa ndi "zomvetsa chisoni komanso zopanda pake"? Inu mwina kutaya foni yanu kapena ndalama zanu, kapena mwina bwenzi labwino. Mwina wina wakudyera miseche, kapena simunapeze ntchito yabwino imene munafunsira. Pali zitsanzo zambiri, koma kodi chimachitika n'chiyani ngati tiyenda ndi Mzimu?
Yesu akunena kuti Mzimu adzatikumbutsa zinthu zonse zimene Iye anati kwa ife. (Yohane 14:26.) Mwachitsanzo zimene zalembedwa pa Mateyu 6:34 (NLT), "Choncho musadandaule za mawa." Kuda nkhawa ndi kosiyana ndi kukonzekera tsiku lanu; nkhawa imakulemetsani; imaba mphamvu zanu ndi chisangalalo.
Mzimu umatikumbutsanso zimene Petulo analemba kuti, "Perekani nkhawa zanu zonse ndi kusamalira Mulungu, pakuti amakuderani nkhawa." 1 Petro 5:7 (NLT). Tikamayenda mwa Mzimu, mawu amenewa amapita molunjika m'mitima yathu n'kukhala mphamvu imene timanena kuti Ayi ku malingaliro onse a mantha kapena nkhawa zomwe zimabwera. Mzimu umatipatsa mphamvu zochita zimenezo, mofanana ndi crane yomwe imakweza matani ambiri a katundu kuchokera ku chombo kupita kumtunda.
Kuyenda mwa Mzimu ndiko kumvera Mzimu
Kuyenda mwa Mzimu kumatanthauza kumvera Mzimu—ku malamulo ndi malamulo amene Mzimu amatikumbutsa pamene tikuyesedwa. Kuyesedwa sikuli kofanana ndi kuchimwa, koma pamene mukuyesedwa muli ndi chosankha, ndipo inuyo muyenera kusankha zimene mukufuna kuchita. Pamene wina akunena chinachake chopweteka kapena chamwano kwa inu, aliyense amadziŵa mitundu ya zinthu zimene mukuyesedwa: kubwezera choipa ndi choipa ndi kubwezera munthuyo. Koma ngati muchita zimenezo, mumaswa malamulo a Mulungu. Umenewo ndi tchimo.
Koma kodi Mzimu Woyera amati chiyani? "Musagonjetsedwe ndi choipa, koma gonjetsani choipa ndi chabwino." Aroma 12:21. Ngati mukuyenda ndi Mzimu umenewu, mumachita zimene vesili likunena ndipo mukugonjetsa chiyesocho. Ndiye zotsatira zake n'zakuti mumapeza chimwemwe mumtima mwanu, m'malo mochititsa zoipa zambiri
Kuyenda mwa Mzimu kumabala zipatso
Ngati tiyenda ndi Mzimu, chinachake chodabwitsa chimachitika. Zimene Baibulo limati "zipatso za Mzimu" zimayamba kukula m'moyo wanu—mtendere, chimwemwe, chikondi, kukhulupirika, ndi ubwino, pakati pa zinthu zina. (Agalatiya 5:22.) Kumene kale munali wosakhazikika kwambiri, wodera nkhaŵa ndipo kaŵirikaŵiri wosasangalala, tsopano mumapeza lingaliro labwino kwambiri pa moyo. Mumakhala olimba ndi okhazikika ndipo phunzirani kupanga mtendere wokuzungulirani. Mumakhala osangalala, ndipo zimakhala mbali yachibadwa ya moyo wanu. Simukuchitiranso nsanje ena.
Mukamakonda ena, mumachoka pa zofuna zosatha za chifuniro chanu, ndipo mumayamba kuganizira za ena ndi zomwe zingakhale zabwino kwa iwo m'malo mongoganizira za inu nokha. Kukhulupirika kumakhala mbali ya umunthu wanu, ndipo mumakhala wodalirika pa chilichonse chimene mumanena ndi kuchita. Mumakhala munthu watsopano. Sizoonanso kunena kuti, "Ife ndife anthu okha." Chinthu chatsopano kwathunthu chimabadwa m'moyo wanu kotero kuti mumaganiza ndi kuchita mosiyana ndi kale.
Zipatso zonsezi za Mzimu zimakula mukamayenda ndi Mzimu. Umenewu ndiwo moyo umene Yesu anakhalamo padziko lapansi ndi umene mungakhale nawo monga wophunzira Wake. Kuyenda mwa Mzimu kumatenga kuyeseza. Nthaŵi zina mungalakwitse, makamaka kumayambiriro kwa kuyenda kwanu kwachikristu, koma simuyenera kutaya kulimba mtima kapena kuganiza kuti n'kopanda pake. Mzimu umatchedwanso "Wotonthoza" m'Baibulo lina. Iye amatitonthoza ndipo amatipatsa kulimba mtima kwambiri ndi kulimba mtima kwatsopano pamene tikufunikira. Mzimu uli nafe paulendo wathu ndipo umatipatsa chakudya choyenera pamene tikufunikira.
Pa 2 Timoteyo 1:7 (MEV) kwalembedwa kuti, "Pakuti Mulungu sanatipatse mzimu wa mantha, koma wa mphamvu, ndi chikondi, ndi kudziletsa." Yendani ndi Mzimu uwu. Pamenepo mudzakhala ndi moyo wokhutiritsa.
Pali anthu ambiri amoyo lerolino amene akumana ndi zimenezi, ndipo amene ali nawo angatsimikizire kuti nzoona. Kungokhala wotchedwa wokhulupirira, ndi kukhala membala wa tchalitchi, chipembedzo, kapena gulu lachipembedzo sikungathetse mavuto anu. Koma kuyenda mwa Mzimu kumathetsa mikangano yanu yamkati komanso mikangano ndi anthu ena. Simungathe kupeza moyo wabwino!
