Natanayeli: Zimene Yesu anaona
Pamene Yesu anaona Natanayeli, Iye anati, "Pano palidi Mwisrayeli. Palibe chinyengomwa iye." Yohane 1:47 (NCV.) Natanayeli amangotchulidwa kamodzi kokha m'Baibulo, koma mawu osavuta a Yesu anasonyeza kuti anali munthu amene tingaphunzirepo zambiri. Kodi zikutanthauza chiyani kuti palibe chonyenga mwa wina?
M'nkhani zina, tikuona kuti Yesu anali ndi mawu osiyana kwambiri kwa Afarisi. Pa Mateyu 23:25-26 (GNT) Yesu akuwauza kuti, "N'zoopsa kwambiri kwa inu, aphunzitsi a Chilamulo ndi Afarisi! Onyenga inu! Mumayeretsa kunja kwa chikho chanu ndi mbale, pamene mkati mwake muli odzaza ndi zomwe mwapeza ndi chiwawa ndi dyera. Mfarisi wakhungu! Yeretsanizomwe zili mkati mwa chikho choyamba, ndiyeno kunja kudzakhala koyera kwambiri!"
Afarisi anali Ayuda ophunzira. Iwo anayesetsa kwambiri kuoneka bwino pamaso pa anthu. Iwo ankakonda kusonyeza anthu mmene analili opembedza. Koma pamene kuli kwakuti iwo anasunga malamulo onse akunja, iwo sanasamale kalikonse ponena za tchimo limene linali kukhala mkati mwawo. Iwo anangotumikira Mulungu kaamba ka phindu lawo, osati chifukwa chakuti anamkondadi Iye.
Yesu anakumana ndi anthu ambiri m'moyo Wake ndipo Iye anali woyera ndi woona, mkati ndi kunja. Iye ankadziwa ndi kusunga malamulo onse achiyuda, koma Anaonanso kuti malamulo onse akunja amenewo sakanatha kuchotsa tchimo limene linkakhalabe mkati mwa anthu.
Mu Chiphunzitso chapa Phiri" Yesu anapereka zitsanzo zina za mmene lamulo silingathe kuchotseratchimo limene linkakhala mkati mwa mitima ya anthu. "Mwamva kuti zinanenedwa kwa anthu athu kalekale kuti, 'Usaphe aliyense. Aliyense wopha mnzake adzaweruzidwa." Koma ndikukuuzani, ngati mwakwiyira m'bale kapena mlongo, mudzaweruzidwa." Mateyu 5:21-22 (NCV). Ndipo "Mwamva kuti zinanenedwa kuti, 'Simuyenera kukhala ndi mlandu wa chigololo.' Koma ndikukuuzani kuti ngati wina ayang'ana mkazi n'kufuna kuchimwa naye kugonana, m'maganizo mwake wachita kale tchimo limenelo ndi mkaziyo." Mateyu 5:27-28 (NCV).
Ndi zitsanzo zimenezi, Yesu anasonyeza kuti lamulo lingalange munthu ngati waphadi munthu wina kapena kuchita chigololo. Koma Yesu anatsutsa tchimo mkati – chidani chimenecho ndi chilakolako chimene chimakhala m'chibadwa cha anthu – kotero kuti sichinakhalepo ndi mwayi wotuluka poyamba!
Kodi anthu amaona chiyani mwa ine?
Pamene Yesu anakumana ndi Natanayeli, Iye anazindikira kuti anali munthu wolungama. Iye sanangoyesa kuoneka bwino pamaso pa anthu kapena kuchita zinthu zonse zoyenera kuti anthu atamandidwe. Natanayeli ayenera kuti anakondadi Mulungu ndipo anam'tumikira ndi mtima wake wonse kuti Yesu anene zimenezo. Mzimu wake unagwirizana ndi moyo umene anakhala. Natanayeli sanali kuyesa kuika chiwonetsero cha Yesu kapena kubisa chilichonse, ndipo Yesu ankatha kuona zimenezo, asanalankhulane n'komwe.
Zinandipangitsa ine kwenikweni kuganiza – ngati nditakumana ndi Yesu lero, kodi Iye angathe kunena chimodzimodzi za ine? Kodi anthu amene ndili nawo pamodzi tsiku lililonse amawaona chiyani? Kodi amaona munthu amene palibe chinyengo? Munthu amene ali woona mtima ndi wolunjika ndipo alibe chobisa? Munthu amene amalemekeza ena, mosasamala kanthu za amene ali?
Posachedwapa, ndinamva wina akunena kuti si chibadwa chathu kukhala oona mtima m'mikhalidwe yonse. Nditamva zimenezo, zinandipangitsa kuganizira za Afarisi. Iwo ankagwira ntchito mwakhama kwambiri kuti azioneka bwino pamaso pa anthu ndipo sankatha ngakhale kuona kapena kuvomereza kuti anali odzaza ndi uchimo mkati.
Mu Salmo 51:6 (AMP) Davide analemba kuti, "Mukukhumba choonadi mkati mwanga, ndipo m'mbali yobisika [ya mtima wanga] Mudzandidziŵitsa nzeru."
Ngati ndikufuna kukhala ngati Natanayeli, ndiyenera kuyang'ana bwino kwambiri zomwe zili mkati, mumtima mwanga, m'malo obisika kumene palibe wina aliyense amene amaona. Nthawi zambiri zikhoza kuchitika kuti bodza laling'ono, "losavulaza" limawoneka bwino ngati lingandithandize kutuluka mu mkhalidwe wovuta. Kapena mwina ndimaona kuti ndiyenera kuchita zinthu mosiyana malinga ndi amene ndili naye. Kodi ndimauza ena zoona, ngakhale pamene zili zovuta? Kodi ndine wofunitsitsa kutaya chivomerezo cha anthu kuti aimirire chimene chiri chabwino?
Woona mtima kwathunthu mu zinthu zonse
Nditayamba kuganizira zinthu zimenezi, ndinkadabwa kuti n'zotheka bwanji kugonjetsa zonsezi? Kodi ndingatani kuti ndine woona mtima kwathunthu ngati mmene ndikufunira? Kulankhula zoona pamene ndikudziwa kuti ndiyenera?
Zalembedwa pa Miyambo 4:23 (CEV): "TTchinjiriza mtima wako koposa zonse chifukwa ndiwo gwero la moyo weniweni." Zonse zimayambira m'maganizo mwanga! Ngati ndilondera zimenezo, ndikuziyang'anira nthawi zonse, ndiye kuti inenso sindidzakhala wabodza! Zimatanthauza kuti ndiyenera kukhala woona mtima kwathunthu ndikaona tchimo limene limakhala mwa ine. Ndiyenera kuvomereza kuti ilipo ndi kupempha Mulungu kuti andithandize kuthana ndi machimo amenewa. Sindingathe kunamizira kuti kulibe kapena kubisa mwanjira inayake.
Ndikakhala woona mtima kwathunthu ndekha komanso ndi Mulungu, ndiye kuti ndimaphunzira kukonda pamene Mulungu andisonyeza choonadi chokhudza ine ndekha, chifukwa ndikuwona kuti choonadi chingandipangitse kukhala womasuka ku tchimo lomwe limakhala mu chikhalidwe changa chaumunthu. Ndipo pamene ndikuphunzira kukhala woona mtima kwa ine ndekha ndi Mulungu, ndikhoza kukhala woona mtima kwambiri ndi anthu ozungulira inenso.
Tsopano, m'malo mofunafuna kutamandidwa kapena chiyanjanokuchokera kwa anthu "ofunika", ndimaphunzira kuti chinthu chofunika chokha ndi chimene Mulungu amandiganizira. Pamene ndikuyenera kuuza munthu wina choonadi, ndiye kuti ndimachita chifukwa ndikufuna kukhala woona mtima komanso wolunjika, mosasamala kanthu za ndalama zake. Ndipo sindifunikira kunama kuti ndiyese kupeza chinachake ndekha, chifukwa ndikukhulupirira kuti Mulungu adzandidalitsa ngati ndili wolungama.
Pa Yohane 8:32, Yesu anati, "Ndipo mudzadziwa choonadi, ndipo choonadi chidzakumasulani." Pamene ndimakonda choonadi chokhudza ine ndekha, palibe chimene chingandikhudze kapena kundisuntha. Palibe mkhalidwe ndipo palibe munthu amene angandilekanitse ndi Mulungu. Iye amaima pambali panga mu mkhalidwe uliwonse, wokonzeka kundipatsa mphamvu zonse ndi thandizo limene ndikufunikira kuti ndigonjetse. Ndipo kenako, popanda mawu, ndikhoza kukhala chitsanzo ngati Natanayeli - amene Yesu anganene ali ndi mtima woyera kwathunthu.
