255. UNkulunkulu uyilokhu ayikho futhi unalokhu anakho. Konke akuvezayo nakwembulayo kumela ubunjalo bakhe nomfanekiso wakhe. Lokho ayikho nalokho anakho, kanye nobunjalo nomfanekiso Wakhe, yizinto ezingeke zivalelwe isikhala ngumuntu. Isimo Sakhe sihlanganisa uthando Lwakhe ngesintu, induduzo ngesintu, inzondo ngabantu, futhi ikakhulu, ukusiqonda ngokuphelele isintu. Isimo somuntu, nokho, singase sinikeze ithemba, sigcwale impilo, noma singabi namuzwa. Isimo sikaNkulunkulu singesoMbusi wazo zonke izinto nezidalwa eziphilayo, eseNkosi yayo yonke indalo. Isimo Sakhe simela ukuhlonipheka amandla, ukuphakama, ubukhulu, futhi okubaluleke kakhulu, ukuba phezulu. Isimo Sakhe siwuphawu lwegunya, uphawu lwakho konke okulungile nokuhle. Ngaphezu kwalokho, siwuphawu Lwakhe ongeke[a] acindezelwe noma ahlaselwe ubumnyama kanye nanoma imaphi amandla ezitha, futhi siwuphawu Lwakhe ongasoze oniwe (futhi ongeke akumele ukoniwa)[b] yinoma yini edaliwe. Isimo Sakhe siwuphawu lwamandla aphakeme kakhulu. Akukho muntu noma abantu abangakwazi noma abangaphazamisa umsebenzi Wakhe noma isimo Sakhe. Kodwa ubuntu bomuntu abuyilutho olwedlula uphawu nje lobukhudlwana bomuntu kunesilwane. Umuntu kuye nangokwakhe akanalo igunya, ukuzilawula nokwazi ukweqa imingcele yobuntu, kodwa engqikithini yakhe uyilowo oqhaqhazela emseni walo lonke uhlobo lwabantu, izehlakalo nezinto. Injabulo kaNkulunkulu ibangelwa ubukhona nokuvela kokukulunga nokukhanya; ngenxa yokushabalaliswa kobumnyama nobubi. Ujabuliswa ukuthi ulethe ukukhanya nokuphila okumnandi kubantu; injabulo Yakhe yinjabulo elungile, iwuphawu lokuba khona kwakho konke okuhle futhi, okubaluleke kakhulu, iwuphawu lwentokozo. Intukuthelo kaNkulunkulu ibangelwa ukuba khona kokungalungi nokuphazamisa okukudalayo okulimaza isintu Sakhe; ngenxa yokuba khona kobubi nobumnyama, ukuba khona kwezinto ezihlanekezela iqiniso, ngisho nokuba khona kwezinto ezimelana nezinto ezilungile nezinhle. Intukuthelo Yakhe iwuphawu lokuthi azisekho izinto ezimbi, futhi iwuphawu lobungcwele Bakhe. Ukudabuka Kwakhe kubangelwa isintu, anethemba ngaso kodwa esiwele ebumnyameni, ngoba umsebenzi awenza kumuntu awufinyeleli kulokho akulindele, nangenxa yokuthi isintu asithandayo asikwazi sonke ukuphila ekukhanyeni. Uyadabuka ngesintu esingenacala, ngomuntu othembekile kodwa ongazi lutho, nangomuntu olungileyo kodwa ontulayo emibonweni yakhe. Ukudabuka Kwakhe kuwuphawu lokulunga nomusa Wakhe, uphawu lobuhle nobumnene. Injabulo Yakhe, ngokusobala, isuka ekunqobeni izitha Zakhe, nokuthola ukholo lwabantua. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ibangelwa ukuxoshwa nokubhujiswa kwazo zonke izitha bese isintu sithola ukuphila okumnandi nokunokuthula. Injabulo kaNkulunkulu ayifani neyomuntu; kunalokho iwumuzwa wokwamukela izithelo ezinhle, okuwumuzwa ongaphezu kwenjabulo. Injabulo Yakhe iwuphawu lwesintu sikhululeka ekuhluphekeni kusuka manje kuya phambili nophawu lokungena ezweni lokukhanya. Imizwa yesintu, ngakolunye uhlangothi, yonke ikhona ngenxa yokuthandwa nguye, hhayi ngenxa yokulunga, ukukhanya, noma ngenxa yokuhle, ingasaphathwa eyawo wonke umusa onikezwe yiZulu. Imizwa yesintu inobugovu futhi eyasezweni lobumnyama. Ayikho ngenxa yentando kaNkulunkulu, ingasaphathwa eyohlelo lukaNkulunkulu, ngakho umuntu noNkulunkulu akunakwenzeka kukhulunywe ngabo ngesikathi esisodwa. UNkulunkulu unamandla mkhulu futhi uhloniphekile kuze kube phakade, kanti umuntu eyohlale ephansi, engenamsebenzi. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi uNkulunkulu uhlale enza imihlatshelo ezinikela esintwini; umuntu, nokho, uhlale ezithathela futhi ezizamela yena kuphela. UNkulunkulu uhlale ehluphekela ukuphila kwesintu, kodwa abantu abanikeli lutho ngenxa yokukhanya noma ukulunga. Ngisho noma umuntu esebenza okwesikhashana, akwenzayo kubuthaka ngendlela yokuthi ngeke kumele ngisho igalelo elilodwa, ngoba umsebenzi womuntu uhlale ungowokuzuzisa yena hhayi abanye. Umuntu uhlale enobugovu, lapho uNkulunkulu ehlale ezidela. UNkulunkulu ungumthombo wakho konke okunobulungiswa, okulungile, nokuhle, kodwa umuntu yilowo ophumelela ekwenzeni futhi oveza bonke ububi nokukhohlakala. UNkulunkulu akasoze aguquka ubunjalo bakhe bokulunga nobuhle, kodwa umuntu ukwazi ngokuphelele, noma nini, nakusiphi isimo ukumelana nokulunga nokwedukela kude noNkulunkulu.

Akangcoliswa ukungcola, yize eze ezweni elingcolile; konke lokhu kuchaza ukuthi uthando lukaNkulunkulu esintwini luzidela ngokwedlulele, nokuhlupheka nokuthotshiswa akubekezelelayo kukhulu ngokwedlulele! Anazi yini ukuthi wehlelwa ukuthotshiswa ngenxa yenu nangenxa yesiphetho senu? Anikwazi lokho? Akabasindisi abantu abakhulu noma amadodana emindeni eyizicebi nenamandla, kodwa usindisa ngokukhethekile labo abaphansi nababukelwa phansi ngabanye. Ngabe konke lokhu akubona ubungcwele Bakhe? Ngabe konke lokhu akukhona ukulunga Kwakhe? Kungcono ukuba azalwe ezweni elingcolile adlule kukho konke ukuthotshiswa ngenxa yokusinda kwesintu sonke. UNkulunkulu ungowangempela kakhulu—akawenzi umsebenzi ongelona iqiniso. Awenziwa ngokuwuqobo kanjalo umsebenzi wezigaba zonke? Nakuba bonke abantu bemnyundela bethi udla nezoni, noma bonke abantu behlekisa Ngaye bethi uhlala namadodana okungcola, bethi uhlala nabantu abaphansi kakhulu, usazinikela ngokuzidela, futhi usachithwa phakathi kwesintu.

Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ikhona, akusiyona into esuselwayo, futhi inika abantu umuzwa wokuthi icophelele futhi iyaphatheka. Akusho lutho ukuthi uyibuka ngasohlangothini oluyisicaba noma olunxantathu; awudingi ukucabanga ngobukhona bayo, ngokuba kuyinto ekhona ngempela. Noma-ke usebenzisa “umkhulukazi” ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu uyezwa ukuthi linikeza uthando Lwakhe inani, nokho, linikeza umuzwa wokungalinganiseki futhi. Ngithi uthando lukaNkulunkulu lunganikwa inani ngoba uthando Lwakhe akusilo uhlobo olungenanhlangano, futhi aluphethuki kunoma iyiphi into yakudala. Okunalokho, luyinto okuhlephulelwana ngayo ezintweni zonke ezibuswa nguNkulunkulu, futhi luyinto ethokozelwa indalo yonke ngokwamazinga ahlukene kanye nangezindlela ezahlukene. Noma-ke abantu bengaluboni noma baluthinte, lolu thando luletha ukugcinwa kanye nempilo ezintweni zonke njengokuba lwembulwa kancane kancane ezimpilweni zabo, futhi babala futhi bafakazele uthando lukaNkulunkulu abaluthokozela yonke imizuzu. Ngithi uthando lukaNkulunkulu alulinganiseki ngoba imfihlakalo kaNkulunkulu ihlinzeka futhi yondla zonke izinto, lokho kunzima kubantu ukuba bakuqonde, kanjalo nemicabango kaNkulunkulu yezinto zonke, ikakhulukazi lezo zesintu. Lokhu kusho ukuthi, akekho owazi igazi nezinyembezi zoMdali azichithele isintu. Akekho ongabamba, akekho ongaqonda ukujula noma ukuphakama kothando loMdali analo ngesintu, esidalwe izandla Zakhe. Ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu njengolukhulukazi ukusiza abantu ukuba bazise futhi baqonde ububanzi neqiniso lobukhona Bakhe. Ukuze futhi abantu baqonde ngokujulile incazelo yeqiniso yegama elithi “Mdali,” futhi ukuze abantu bazuze ukuqonda okujulile kwencazelo yeqiniso yesidlaliso esithi “indalo.” Lichaza ukuthini igama elithi “ububanzi”? Lisetshenziselwa ulwandle noma umkhathi, njengokuthi umkhathi obanzi, noma ulwandle olubanzi. Ububanzi kanye nokujula kakhulu komkhathi kungaphezu kokuqonda komuntu, futhi into ethumba imicabango yomuntu, ngendlela yokuthi igcwale ukuncoma. Imfihlakalo nenjula yalo kuyabonakala kodwa akuthinteki. Uma ucabanga ngolwandle, ucabanga ngobubanzi balo—lubonakala lungenamkhawulo, futhi uyayizwa imfihlakalo yalo kanye nokusingatha kwalo. Yingakho ngisebenzise igama “ububanzi” ukuchaza uthando lukaNkulunkulu. Ukusiza abantu ukuba bezwe ukuthi kuyigugu kangakanani, ukuzwa injula yobuhle bothando Lwakhe, kanye nokuthi amandla othando Lwakhe awanamkhawulo futhi lunzulu. Ukubasiza bezwe ubungcwele bothando Lwakhe, kanye nesithunzi nokungakhubekisani kukaNkulunkulu okuvezwa ngothando Lwakhe.

282. Kunokuthile esiqwini sikaNkulunkulu noma isimo okulula ukusibukela phansi, into okunguNkulunkulu kuphela onayo, hhayi omunye umuntu, kuhlanganise nalabo ababheka njengabantu abakhulu, abantu abalungile, noma uNkulunkulu wemicabango yabo. Iyini le nto? Kuwukuzidela kukaNkulunkulu. Uma sikhuluma ngokuzidela, nawe ungase ucabange ukuthi uzidela kakhulu, ngoba uma kuziwa ezinganeni zakho awulokothi ukhononde, uyazipha ezikudingayo, noma ucabange ukuthi uzidela kakhulu uma kukhulunywa ngabazali bakho. Kungakhathaleki ukuthi ucabangani, okungenani unawo umqondo ngegama elithi “ukuzidela” futhi licabanga njengento enhle, nokuthi ukuba umuntu ozidelayo kuyigugu kakhulu. Lapho uzidela, uzibona umkhulu. Kodwa akekho ongabona ukuzidela kukaNkulunkulu phakathi kwazo zonke izinto, phakathi kwabantu, kwezehlakalo, kwezinto nasemsebenzini kaNkulunkulu. Kungani kunjalo? Ngoba umuntu uyambulala umhawu! Kungani ngisho kanjalo? Isintu siphila ezweni lenyama. Ungamlandela uNkulunkulu, kodwa ngeke uyibone indlela akunakekela ngayo, akuthanda ngayo nakukhathalela ngayo. Ngakho ubonani? Uyabona izihlobo zakho zegazi ezikuthandayo futhi ezikwazisayo. Uyabona izinto ezizuzisa inyama, unendaba nabantu nezinto ozithandayo. Lokhu yilokhu umuntu akubiza ngokuzidela. Nokho “ukuzidela” kwabantu okunjalo, abaze bengaba nendaba ngoNkulunkulu obanika ukuphila. Ngokuphambene nalokho, ukuzidela komuntu kugcina kuba ubugovu nento engathandeki. Ukholo lwalowo muntu luyize, aluhlanzekile, alufaneleki kuNkulunkulu, futhi aluhlobene noNkulunkulu. Umuntu uma ezidela usuke ezenzela yena, kuyilapho okukaNkulunkulu ukuzidela kuyisambulo sangempela sesiqu Sakhe. Ngokuyinhloko kungenxa yokuzidela kukaNkulunkulu okwenza umuntu athole inala yezinto Kuye. Kungenzeka lesi sihloko engikhuluma ngaso namhlanje asinithinti kakhulu futhi nimane nivuma ngekhanda, kodwa lapho uzama ukuqonda inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yakho, uyothola lokhu: Phakathi kwabo bonke abantu, izindaba nezinto ezinemizwa kuleli zwe, ukuzidela kukaNkulunkulu kuphela okungokoqobo futhi okuyiqiniso, ngoba uthando lukaNkulunkulu ngawe kuphela olungenamibandela futhi olungenabala. Ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu, noma ubani okuthi akanamona uyazenzisa, unamanga, akahlakaniphile; kunenjongo, izinhloso ezithile, futhi akunakumelana nokuvivinywa. Ningaze nithi kungcolile, kuyenyanyeka.

283. UNkulunkulu umzondile umuntu ngenxa yokuthi wayenobutha Naye, kodwa inhliziyo Yakhe, ukunakekela Kwakhe, ukukhathazeka nomusa ngesintu akukashintshi. Ngisho nalapho ebhubhisa isintu, inhliziyo Yakhe ayishintshanga. Lapho isintu sigcwele inkohlakalo nokungamlaleli ngezinga elithile uNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu kwadingeka ukuthi asibhubhise lesi sintu ngenxa yesimo Sakhe, isiqu Sakhe, kanye nemiyalo Yakhe. Kodwa ngenxa yesiqu sikaNkulunkulu, wazwelana nabantu, futhi waze wafuna nokusebenzisa izindlela ezehlukahlukene ukuze ahlenge isintu ukuze sizokwazi ukuqhubeka siphila. Kunalokho, umuntu wamelana noNkulunkulu, waqhubeka engamlaleli uNkulunkulu, futhi wenqaba ukwamukela insindiso kaNkulunkulu, okuwukuthi, wenqaba ukwamukela izinhloso ezinhle. Kungakhathaleki ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubabiza kanjani, ubakhumbuza kanjani, ubanika ini, ubasiza kanjani, noma ubabekezelela kangakanani, abantu abakaze baqonde noma bamazise futhi bebelokhu benganaki. Ebuhlungwini Bakhe, uNkulunkulu akazange akhohlwe ukubekezelela umuntu ngezinga angakwazi ngalo, alinde umuntu ukuba aphenduke. Uma esefinyelele umkhawulo Wakhe, wenza lokho okufanele akwenze ngaphandle kokunqikaza. Ngamanye amazwi, kwakunenkathi nenqubo ethile ekhethekile ngesikhathi uNkulunkulu ahlela ngaso ukubhubhisa isintu ekuqaleni Kwakhe kwangempela umsebenzi wokubhubhisa abantu. Le nqubo yaba khona ukuze kunikwe umuntu ithuba lokuphenduka, futhi kwakuyithuba lokugcina uNkulunkulu alinika umuntu. Ngakho yini eyenziwa uNkulunkulu ngale nkathi ngaphambi kokubhubhisa isintu? UNkulunkulu wenza umsebenzi obalulekile wokukhumbuza nokunxusa. Akunandaba ukuthi bungakanani ubuhlungu nosizi uNkulunkulu akuzwa enhliziyweni Yakhe, waqhubeka enakekela, ekhathalela futhi ebonisa isintu umusa omningi. Yini esiyibonayo kulokhu? Ngokungangabazeki, sibona ukuthi uthando lukaNkulunkulu ngesintu lungokoqobo, akuyona nje into enzela ngayo ukuthi kungakhulunywa. Lungokoqobo, lunokwethenjelwa futhi olokwaziswa, alusilo olokukhohlisa, luhlanzekile, alukhohlisi noma alunabuzenzisi. UNkulunkulu akalokothi akhohlise noma akhe izithombe ezingamanga ukuze athandeke kubantu. Akalokothi asebenzise ubufakazi obungamanga ukuze abantu bamthande, noma aluthe abantu ngothando Lwakhe noma ubungcwele Bakhe. Lezi zici zesimo sikaNkulunkulu azilufanele yini uthando lwabantu? Azikufanele yini ukukhonzwa? Azikufanele yini ukwaziswa? Kuleli qophelo, ngifuna ukunibuza: Ngemva kokuzwa la mazwi, ingabe nicabanga ukuthi ubukhulu bukaNkulunkulu bumane bungamazwi asephepheni nje? Ingabe uthando lukaNkulunkulu lumane nje lungamazwi? Cha! Nakanjani akunjalo! Amandla amakhulu kaNkulunkulu, ubukhulu, ubungcwele, ukubekezela, uthando, njalo njalo—yonke imininingwane yazo zonke lezi zinto ezehlukahlukene zesimo nesiqu sikaNkulunkulu ivezwa ngokoqobo ngaso sonke isikhathi uma enza umsebenzi Wakhe, ihambisana nentando Yakhe ngesintu, futhi zigcwaliswa kuwo wonke umuntu. Kungakhathaleki ukuthi wake wakuzwa yini ngaphambilini noma cha, uNkulunkulu ukhathalela wonke umuntu ngazo zonke izindlela, usebenzisa inhliziyo Yakhe eqotho, ukuhlakanipha, nezindlela ezehlukahlukene ukuze afudumeze inhliziyo yomuntu ngamunye, futhi avuse umoya womuntu ngamunye. Leli iqiniso elingenakuphikwa.
