Amayinja ag'Okulinnyako

Ekkanisa enkulu eya Notre Dame mu kibuga eky'edda ekya Quebec City erabye emikolo mingi egy'ebyafaayo. Ku ssaawa eno ey'olweggulo olw'omusana mu Juuni 1979, nnali njiraba ogundi omulala. Nnali mu mulyango omukulu nga ntunuulira munda mu kkanisa eyali ejjudde ekizikiza, awo nga waliwo omuvubuka eyayimirira mu maaso g'ennyiriri bbiri ez'abaana b'essomero, nga bawerekeddwako omusomesa omusajja. Omuvubuka yali akutte Baibuli mu mukono gwe, era ng'asonga buli emu ku 'bifo eby'omusaalaba' ezaali ku bisenge by'ekkanisa, yali ayigiriza abayizi ku kubonaabona kwa Yesu. Baawuliriza n'obwegendereza bungi. Newaakubadde nga bonna baali ba myaka kkumi na mukaaga oba kkumi na musanvu obukulu, era nga bamanyi bulungi ennono ya Canada n'ebyafaayo bya Quebec, okuyigiriza kuno kwali kupya gye bali. Bwe wandyongedde okwetegereza, wandirabye nga abavubuka bonna baali bambadde kippah ku mitwe gyabwe - akabonero nga bali Bayudaaya.

Natunuulira nga nneewuunya era nga nzijjudde essanyu ery'enjawulo ng'omu ku abo abaali bazze, kubanga abayizi bano baali bavudde mu ssomero lyaffe e Toronto okumala wikendi ey'okuyiga mu Quebec ey'ebyafaayo. Toronto Hebrew Academy ssomero lya Bayudaaya erimanyiddwa era eritambulira ku nnono ya Bayudaaya ab'edda, era nnali nfunye omukisa okusomerezaayo emyaka ebiri egiyise. Abayizi bano amakumi ana baali ekibiina kyaffe ekya grade 11, era nze ne munnange, Ari Barchi, twali tusabiddwa okukulembera olugendo luno olw'enjawulo. Tewali n'omu ku bayizi bano eyamanya nti nnali nakawa obubaka nti nnali nzija kuva mu ssomero ku nkomerero y'omulundi guno, okukwata ku 'kuyitibwa' okupya - okuba omusumba ow'ekiseera kyonna. Okuva lwe nnasalawo ekyo, Katonda yali antutte mu bumanyirivu obw'ekitalo, era wikendi eno yali eraga omukisa gwe ogutasalako.

Bwe nnali ntunuulira ebisenge eby'ekitalo, eby'edda eby'ekkanisa, wamu n'ebifo ekkumi n'ennya, abakkiriza we baafukamiranga mu kusaba nga bajjukira ekkubo Yesu lye yatambulira okuva e Gesusemane okutuuka e Kalvari, ebirowoozo byange byazzibwa emabega eri ebifo eby'omu bulamu bwange Katonda gye yali antuseeko. Natunuulira emabega okusukka emyaka amakumi abiri ne ndaba amazima agaayogerwa Omuwandiisi wa Zabbuli.

“Amakubo g'omuntu ganywezebwa Mukama, bw'asanyukira ekkubo lye; ne bw'agwa, taasuulibwe wansi, kubanga Mukama amukwatirira omukono gwe” (Zabbuli 37:23-24).

Ndaba ebifo bingi nnyo oba 'amayinja ag'okulinnyako' mu bulamu bwange ebyantuusa mu bumanyirivu obw'omunda ennyo eri Mukama, era awatali byo, sandibadde na lugero lwe njagala okubuulira. Buli jjinja ery'okulinnyako lyantuusa eri eriddirira, nga buli limu lye kutabaala kwa Mukama okw'atereevu mu nteekateeka zange. Olw'okutunuulira emabega kyokka kwe nsobola okulabako ku bigendererwa bye yalina okuva ku lubereberye. Kaakano nsobola okutegeera ensonga lwaki 'yaggala oluggi luli,' bwe nnali ndowooza nti lwandibadde luggule. Kaakano nsobola okulaba engeri gye yakoleramu mu bulamu bw'abalala, ne mu abo abatakkiriza, okutuukiriza enteekateeka ze ez'olwange. Kaakano nsobola okwogera nti mmanyi nti ebyo ebinnennyamiza emirundi mingi bye Mukama by'ateekateeka. Kaakano, nsobola okumwesiga mu buli kitundu ky'ebiseera byange eby'omu maaso kubanga yeeraze mu biseera byange ebyayita. Mmanyi nti amayinja ag'okulinnyako galiwo newaakubadde nga sinnagalaba. Oba ebyayita bisseewo enkola ku by'omu maaso, siigalabe nga sinnabifuna.

Ntuuse okutegeera nti 'okutambula mu kukkiriza' tekwesigamira ku 'kukkiriza' kwange okunene, wabula ku kwewaayo kwange ng'akyusa ekkubo ery'obulamu bwange olw'okutabaala kwe okw'atereevu. 'Okukkiriza' okwo kukwatagana nnyo n'obuwulize okusinga bwe kukwatagana n'okukkiriza. Obuwulize buzaalibwa mu kwesiga. Singa okukkiriza kwange kupimibwa okusinziira ku ngeri abamu 'abayigiriza b'okukkiriza' ab'omu biro bino gye bakozesa, nandigudde nnyo. Gye bali, okukkiriza kintu kye nsobola okwekulaakulanyizaamu, olwo bwe mbeera nakwo okumala, ne nsobola okukakaska Katonda okukola kye njagala. Bwe mbeera omulwadde, kiba nti sirina 'kukkiriza' okumala, era bwe mbeera mu bwetaavu, kiba nti sirina 'kukkiriza' okumala. Naye, bwe nsoma ebyawandiikibwa, binjigiriza nti sisobola kwezaalira kukkiriza wadde okukwongeza mu nze kennyini. Ogwo mulimu gwa Mukama ye nannyini buyinza, era akola omulimu ogwo nga neewaayo eri okukulembera kwe ne nfuula Ekigambo kye omusingi gw'obulamu bwange. Bwe nsoma essuula enkulu ey'okukkiriza mu Abaebbulaniya 11, sirabamu basajja na bakazi ab'ekitalo abatenderezebwa ng'ab'amaanyi olw'okukkiriza kwabwe, wabula ndaba ebyafaayo eby'okutabaala kwa Katonda n'okukulembera mu bulamu bw'abantu aba bulijjo, olw'okutuyigiriza amazima amakulu n'emisingi gy'obulamu obw'Ekikristaayo, naye eby'okuyiga ku Katonda bimala kaakano! Tuddeko olugero!
