"Yesu anayankha kuti, "Ine ndine njira, ndi choonadi, ndi moyo. Njira yokhayo yopita kwa Atate ndiyo kupyolera mwa ine." Yohane 14:6 (NCV).
"Dziko lisanayambe, panali Mawu. Mawu anali ndi Mulungu, ndipo Mawu anali Mulungu ... Mwa iye munali moyo. Moyo umenewo unali kuwala kwa anthu a dziko ... Mawu anakhala munthu ndipo anakhala pakati pathu ..." Yohane 1:1,4,14 (ICB).
"Mzimu ndi umene umapereka moyo! Mphamvu za anthu sizingachite kanthu. Mawu amene ndalankhula nanu ndi ochokera ku Mzimu wopatsa moyo umenewo." Yohane 6:63 (CEV).

Mverani malamulo Ake
Ngati tikufuna kuti moyo umene unali mwa Yesu ukhale moyo wathu, ndiye kuti tiyenera kumvera mawu a moyo. Tiyenera kumvera malamulo Ake. "Ngati mumandikonda, sungani malamulo Anga." Yohane 14:15 (GNB). Chimene Yesu ankafuna chinali chakuti moyo umene Anakhala nawo uyeneranso kukhala moyo wathu. Tiyenera tsiku ndi tsiku kukana zilakolako zathu zauchimo ndi kumutsatira Iye. (Luka 9:23, GNT.) Izi n'zimene zidzatitsogolere ku moyo wosatha.
"Amene Mulungu anali atawasankha kale Iye anapatulanso kuti akhale ngati Mwana Wake, kuti Mwanayo akhale woyamba pakati pa okhulupirira ambiri." Aroma 8:29 (GNT). Izi zikutanthauza kuti payenera kukhala anthu ambiri amene amamvera malamulo Ake ndipo mwanjira imeneyo akhale ngati Iye. Ndi chisankho chomwe timapanga. Kusankha kuchita zabwino kumabweretsa moyo ndi dalitso! (Deuteronomo 30:15,19.) Koma kuti tichite zimenezi, tiyenera kudziwa mawu a Mulungu. "... tcherani khutu kuwerenga... Sinkhasinkhani pa zinthu izi; dzipatseni nokha kwathunthu kwa iye ..." 1 Timoteyo 4:13,15.
Moyo wa Khristu mwa ife
"Mzimu utsogolere miyoyo yanu, ndipo simudzakwaniritsa zokhumba za chikhalidwe cha munthu. ... Mzimu watipatsa moyo; ayeneranso kulamulira miyoyo yathu." Agalatiya 5:16,25 (GNT). Pano tikhoza kuona njira ya moyo. Tikamamvera malamulo a Yesu, sitidzagonja ku zilakolako za chikhalidwe chathu chaumunthu chochimwa, ndipo mwanjira imeneyo tidzawagonjetsa. Tiyenera "kulimbana ndi nkhondo yabwino pamodzi ndi okhulupirira ena onse. Gwirani moyo wosatha. Munasankhidwa pamene munauza ena poyera zimene mumakhulupirira. Mboni zambiri zinakumvani." 1 Timoteo 6:12 (NIRV). Kulimbana ndi nkhondo yabwino imeneyi Mulungu amatipatsa Mzimu Woyera kuti atisonyeze tchimo limene tiyenera kuligonjetsa, ndi kutipatsa mphamvu kuti tigonjetse.
Pamenepo moyo wa Kristu udzawonedwa mwa ife. (2 Akorinto 4:10, NLT.) Timakhala akazembe a moyo Wake; tikukhala m'njira yomwe imamubweretsera chitamando, ndipo tidzakhala oyera monga Iye ali woyera - tidzakhala ngati Iye! (1 Yohane 3:1-3.)

Kukhala motere kumatipatsa moyo woposa chilichonse chimene tingakumane nacho pano padziko lapansi pano. Timayamba kale kulawa ndikukumana ndi moyo wosatha pamene tili pano - zipatso zodalitsika za Mzimu.
