Ngaba iBhayibhile Ingakunceda Umelane Neentlekele Ezibangelwa Yimozulu?
Ngaba nawe njengabaninzi uchatshazelwe ziintlekele ezibangelwe yimozulu embi? Imozulu embi iza neengxaki ezingafaniyo. Iinkanyamba nezantyalantyala zenza umonakalo omkhulu. Iimvula ezinkulu zidiliza iindonga zibangele nomhlaba uhodoke. Imimoya yenza kulanyaze imibane ize loo nto ibangele imililo etshabalalisayo. Imbalela nemimoya yasebusika inokwenza umonakalo omkhulu.
Kwiindawo ezininzi emhlabeni imozulu embi yenzeka kakhulu kunakuqala ibe yonakalisa ngendlela engazange yabonwa. I-International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies ithi, “Nyaka ngamnye, inani labantu ababa kwiintlekele liyanda. Le nto yenzeka ngenxa yokuba kukho izantyalantyala, imimoya neembalela ezininzi kunakuqala. Ngenxa yaloo nto, baninzi abantu abaswelekayo, abanye bayasokola, kanti ke abaninzi abasenawo amakhaya.”
Xa ezi zinto zisenzeka, abantu abaphulukani nezinto abanazo nje qha kodwa bachaphazeleka nasengqondweni. Banokukhathazeka ngenxa yokulahlekelwa zizinto zabo, amakhaya abo, nabantu ababathandayo abaswelekileyo.
Ukuba nawe ukhe wathwaxwa ziintlekele ngenxa yemozulu, iBhayibhile ingakunceda umelane nengxaki okuyo. Iyathuthuzela, isinike ithemba, isinike necebiso esinokulisebenzisa eliye lanceda abantu abaninzi abebekule ngxaki yeentlekele ngenxa yemozulu. (Roma 15:4) Iphendula imibuzo emininzi abadla ngokuzibuza yona abantu abaninzi njengothi: Kutheni uThixo evumela kwenzeke into enje, ngaba uyasohlwaya?
Iintlekele zemozulu ayisosohlwayo esivela kuThixo
IBhayibhile ithi ayingoThixo owenze ukuba abantu bahlelwe zezi ntlekele zemozulu. Ithi “UThixo akanakulingwa ngezinto ezimbi, ibe naye akalingi mntu.” (Yakobi 1:13) Le nto ithetha ukuba, ayinguye owenze kwabakho ezi ngxaki zemozulu namhlanje.
IBhayibhile ithi uThixo wakhe wasebenzisa amandla endalo ukuze ohlwaye abantu ababesenza izinto ezimbi. Kodwa loo mandla endalo ayengafani nemozulu yanamhlanje efika ngaphandle kwesilumkiso ize ichaphazele bonke abantu. IBhayibhile yona ibonisa ukuba uThixo ebebakhusela abantu abamsulwa, ebalumkisa aze acacise izizathu zento ayenzileyo. Ngokomzekelo, uThixo wasichaza isizathu sokuba azise imvula enkulu ngexesha likaNowa, wabalumkisa ngaphambi kokuba enze loo nto futhi wakhusela uNowa nentsapho yakhe.—Genesis 6:13; 2 Petros 2:5.

Kuza kufika ixesha lokuba imozulu embi ingaphinde ibekhona
IBhayibhile ithi uYehova uthembisa ukuba uza ‘kusinika ithemba nekamva.’ (Yeremiya 29:11) Ufuna abantu bonwabele ubomi eparadesi apho kungazukubakho zingxaki zemozulu.—Genesis 1:28; 2:15; Isaya 32:18.

Xa uYesu wayesemhlabeni, wabonisa ukuba unawo amandla okulawula imozulu. (Marko 4:37-41) Uza kulawula ngobulumko efundisa abantu indlela yokukhathalela indalo.
