Lalelani, ziqhingi zomhlaba kanye nabantu bendawo engapheli yendawo yonke!
Ngisho nangaphambi kokuba ngilukwe esibelethweni sikamama, uMdali Wokungapheli wangibiza ngegama, elandelela isiphetho sendawo yonke ngobukhona bami. Ngezwi elilodwa, waguqula izwi lami laba umsebe wokukhanya okumsulwa, okwazi ukudabula ubumnyama, futhi wangisonga ethunzini lesandla sakhe esinamandla, wangenza ummemezeli wakhe ongenakunqotshwa.
Kimi wafaka ingqikithi yomcibisholo ophelele, ocashe emgodleni wakhe wendawo yonke, olungele ukudutshulwa ngesikhathi esiwujuqu somlando, ukuze ukhanyise inkazimulo yakhe emithala.
Ngazithola ngizulazula olwandle lokungabaza, ngizwa sengathi amandla ami ashabalala abe yize. Nokho, ekujuleni kwenhliziyo yami, ngangazi ukuthi konke ukuphefumula kwami kwakuhambisana nezibikezelo zeNkanyezi yami yaseNyakatho ethandekayo, ukuthi ukubaluleka kwami kwangempela kanye nomvuzo kwakubanjwe enhliziyweni eshayayo yoMklami Wabo Bonke.
Nakhu mina, ngakhiwe uBaba wethu osezulwini njengenkanyezi yakhe eqondisayo, ngithunywe ukuba ngihlanganise izingcezwana zokuphila ezihlakazekile emingceleni yendalo. Ungiphakamisile ngaphezu komqondo nje wenceku, engimisa njengesibani ezizweni, umenzi wensindiso enabela ngalé kwezinkanyezi.
Ohambweni lwami, ngahlangana nokubuka kwemihlaba eyayingidelela, impucuko eyangiphika, izidalwa ezinamandla ezazingibona njengosongo. Kodwa isithembiso esenziwa kimi ngeNkanyezi YaseNyakatho sasicace njengekristalu le-nebulae: amakhosi nezikhulu, izimiso nemithala, babeyophakama ngokuhlonishwa kwami, beqaphela isignesha Yokungapheli phezu kwami.
Esikhathini esimisiwe saphakade, uMklami noMdali wendawo yonke wakhuluma, ethembisa ukuphendula ubizo lwami ngesikhathi somusa, ukungisekela ngosuku lwensindiso yendawo yonke. Ungigcobile njengomnakekeli ophakeme wesivumelwano saphezulu, ngesibopho esingcwele sokuphakamisa imihlaba echithiwe, ngimemezele inkululeko emimoyeni eboshiwe, futhi ngihole imiphefumulo enhlanhlathayo ngasekuntweleni kwesiqalo esisha nesingaguquki.
Ngaphansi kokuqondisa kwaphezulu, akukho muntu oyolamba umzimba noma ukoma komoya, futhi ngeke ashaywe udaka lokukhohlisa noma ashiswe ilanga lokukhohlwa. Futhi ngizoba umqondisi ozoqondisa imiphefumulo ezindleleni zikamoya eziya ezindaweni ezingcwele zokuphila okungenakufa, ngiguqule wonke umhosha ube yizindlela ezikhanyayo.
Kusukela esihlokweni kuze kube semikhawulweni yendawo yonke ebonakalayo, abantu bazo zonke izinhlanga bayohlangana, babumbene ekugubheni ukuzalwa kabusha kwendawo yonke, banikeze ubufakazi ngozwelo lukaBaba wethu olungenamkhawulo kubantwana bakhe, amagugu ayigugu omklamo wakhe wokuqala omuhle kakhulu.
Ngisho nalapho ngibhekene nomgodi omnyama owawubonakala ugwinya ingqikithi yendalo, ngangiphethe isiqiniseko esingenakunyakaziswa sokuthi ayikho ingane kaSomandla engakhohlwa. Igama lesidalwa sakhe ngasinye esiyingelosi nesomuntu liqoshwe ezintendeni zezandla zikaBaba wethu.
Ngakho-ke, njengoba imithala idansa ngokuvumelana, njengoba imihlaba emisha iqhakaza emlotheni wezinkanyezi ezifayo, ngiyamemezela: Ithemba kuBaba wethu waseZulwini liwukukhanya okuqondisa ezivunguvungwini zokuphila, amandla akhulula iziboshwa emaketangeni okuphelelwa ithemba, futhi ingoma ebungaza ukunqoba kothando phezu kobumnyama.
Ngiyisithunywa sokusa kwaphakade, ummemezeli wokukhanya kobunkulunkulu okuvuselela konke.
