“Kepha wathi kimi: ‘Umusa wami ukwanele, ngokuba amandla ami enziwa aphelele ebuthakathakeni.’ Ngakho-ke ngizozibonga ikakhulu ngokuthokoza ngobuthakathaka bami, ukuze amandla kaKristu ahlale phezu kwami. —2 KWABASEKORINTE 12:9

Impilo yami ibiyindaba eyimpumelelo, iphupho elikhulu laseMelika lifezekile. Kodwa ngaso leso sikhathi, ngabona ukuthi kwakungeyona impumelelo yami uNkulunkulu ayeyisebenzisile ukuze ngikwazi ukusiza ababoshiwe. Zonke izimpumelelo zami azisho lutho emnothweni kaNkulunkulu. Cha, ifa langempela lokuphila kwami kwaba ukwehluleai kwami okukhulu—ukuthi ngangiyisiboshwa. Ukuthotshiswa kwami okukhulu—ukugqunywa ejele—kwakuwukuqala kwendlela uNkulunkulu asebenzisa ngayo ukuphila kwami okukhulu kakhulu. Wakhetha isipiliyoni esisodwa engangingeke ngizidumise ngaso, ngenxa yenkazimulo Yakhe.

Ngibhekene naleli qiniso elimangalisayo, ngathola ukuthi umhlaba wami uphendukele phansi. Ngaqonda ngokuthuthumela ukuthi ngangibheke ukuphila emuva. Kodwa manje ngabona: kuphela lapho ngilahlekelwa yikho konke engangicabanga ukuthi kwenza u-Chuck Colson waba insizwa enkulu lapho ngase ngithole ubumina beqiniso uNkulunkulu ayehlose ukuba ngibe yikho kanye nenjongo yangempela yokuphila kwami.

Akukhona lokho esikwenzayo okubalulekile kodwa lokho uNkulunkulu onguMbusi akhetha ukukwenza ngathi. Umbuso kaNkulunkulu uyindida, lapho ukunqoba kuza ngokunqotshwa, ukuphulukiswa ngokuphuka, kanye nokuzitholela wena ngokulahlekelwa nguwena. Impela kwakunjalo empilweni yami. Uma nawe uke wahamba esigodini sokwehluleka, ngiyakhuleka kube yiqiniso ngokwakho.

—nguChuck Colson

UMKHULEKO: Nkosi, siyabonga ukuthi umusa wakho wanele kuso sonke isidingo sethu. Sengathi singathola inhloso yethu nokubaluleka Kuwe, namuhla naphakade. Ameni.
