Okukaaba kwa Bannamuŋŋoona

"Ente aziwa emmere, ne bannamuŋŋoona abato abakaaba abaliisa." Zabbuli 147:9.

Nnaatandika okubuulira kuno n'ekigambo kye nsomye. Nsaanidde okubagambira, mu bigambo bya Caryl ye yennyini, bye yawandiika ku bannamuŋŋoona. "Abanoonyereza ku bitonde batugamba nti namuŋŋoona bw'amala okuliisa abaana be mu kisu okutuusa lwe bakula ne basobola okubuuka, abagoba mu kisu n'atabaganya kusigalamu, wabula abafulumya beenoonyeze emmere yaabwe. Kale abaana bano bwe baba bakaaba okubuuka okuva mu kisu kyabwe nga tebamanyi bulungi ngeri gye banaayambamu okwefunira emmere, olwo Mukama n'abawa emmere.

"Abamanyi abeesigwa boogera nti namuŋŋoona wa mpisa nkalubo nnyo mu nsonga eno—abaana be bwe bamala okusobola okwefunira, taddayo kubaleetera mmere. Abamu bagamba nti abakulu tebaganya baana kusigala mu nsi y'emu gye baazaalirwa, bwe kiba bwe kityo, kibagwanira okutambulatambula. Ng'olugero bwe lugamba nti, 'Obwetaavu bwe buleetera omukazi omukadde okudduka.' Tuyinza n'okugamba nti, 'era n'abaana nabo.' "

Kyali era osanga kikyali mpisa ya bazadde abamu eri abaana baabwe, nti amangu ddala nga basobola okwefunira era nga batuuse okwefunira emmere yaabwe, babagoba ebweru ng'ennyumba nga namuŋŋoona bw'agoba abaana be mu kisu. Kale, Mukama bw'ayogera mu kyawandiikibwa nti, abaana ba namuŋŋoona bwe baba mu buzibu buno, nga bagobeddwa, ne batambulatambula olw'obwetaavu bw'emmere, ani kale abawa? "Si Nze, Mukama? Si Nze, awa namuŋŋoona omukulu, awa n'abaana be, ne bwe baba mu kisu ne bwe batambulatambula olw'obwetaavu bw'emmere?"

Sulemaani yatuma omugayaavu eri ensekere, ye kennyini n'ayiga ebyokuyigirako ku bamyu, ku mbwa ez'embiro, ne ku nnandaba! Ka twagale okuyigirizibwa ekitonde kya Katonda kyonna, era leero ekiro tugende ku kisu kya bannamuŋŋoona tuyige nga mu ssomero. Eri abalongoofu tewali kya muzizo, era eri ab'amagezi tewali kya bunyoomi. Ka ab'enkolokomya batye namuŋŋoona ng'ekinyonyi eky'ebibi, era ka abatafaayo balabe ekintu ekirina ebiwaawaatiro ekiddugavu ekimasamasa kyokka—naye ffe twagala okulaba ebisingawo, era mazima tetulirema kuweebwa mpeera bwe tuba abayigirizika.

Namuŋŋoona wa Nuuwa teyamukomezaawo ttabi lya muzeeyituuni, naye owaffe ayinza! Era kiyinza n'okubaawo nti bannamuŋŋoona batuleetere emmere leero ekiro nga edda bwe baaliisa Eriya ku mugga Kerisi. Mukama waffe omulungi yali aggya ku bannamuŋŋoona endowooza ey'amaanyi ennyo—endowooza eyali egenderera okuzzaamu amaanyi n'okusanyusa abaddu be abaali banyigirizibwa okweraliikirira okutaliimu ku bintu byabwe eby'ensi. Abo yabagamba nti, "Mulowooze ku namuŋŋoona, tezisiga so tezikungula, era tezirina na mawanika mwe zitereka mmere yaazo, naye Katonda aziriisa. Naye mmwe muli ba muwendo nnyo okukira ennyonyi ezo!"

Nga ngoberera endowooza ya Mukama waffe—gye mwenna kye munaakkiriza nti yali ya mazima, kubanga teyalina bulimba mu kuteesa kwe newaakubadde mu bye yayogera—leero nnaawakana bwe nti: Mulowooze ku bannamuŋŋoona nga bakaaba! N'amaloboozi amakalu, agatategeerekeka, ag'okukwakwaya bamanyisa obwetaavu bwabwe, ne Kitammwe ali mu ggulu addamu okusaba kwabwe n'abaweereza emmere! Nammwe mutandise okusaba n'okunoonya ekisa kye—olwo temusinga kubeera ba muwendo okukira bo? Katonda afaayo ku bannamuŋŋoona, ate n'atafaayo ku mmwe? Tawulira maloboozi ga bannamuŋŋoona abato mu bisu byabwe nga balumwa enjala ne bamukaabira babaliise?

Abagabirira, njogera, ng'addamu okukaaba kwabwe, ate n'atabaddamu mmwe, abaana b'abantu abanaku abakankana abanoonya amaaso ge n'ekisa kye mu Kristo Yesu? Omulimu gwaffe gwonna ogw'akawungeezi kano gunaaba gwa kunnyonnyola ekirowoozo ekyo ekimu. Leero, nga nkulemberwa Omwoyo Omutukuvu, ngenderera okwogera ekigambo eri abo abaali basaba okusaasirwa naye nga tebannaba kukufuna—abaali bafukamidde, oboolyawo emyezi mingi, nga bakaaba nnyo n'obulumi—naye nga tebannaba kumanya kkubo lya mirembe.

Ekibi kyabwe kikyabalanga ku bulago ng'olubengo. Batudde mu kiwonvu eky'ekisiikirize ky'okufa. Tewali kitangaala kibaakidde, era banyigana emikono ne basinda nti, "Katonda yeerabidde okuba ow'ekisa? Aziyizza okutu kwe eri okusaba kw'emyoyo eginoonya? Talifaayo nate ku maloboozi ag'ennaku ag'aboonoonyi? Amaziga g'abeenenya galitonnya wansi ku ttaka nga tegakyakwata kusaasira kwe?" Ne Setaani abagamba, mmwe abaagalwa, abali mu mbeera eno ey'omu mutima, nti Katonda talibawulira n'akatono. Nti alibaleka mukaabe okutuusa lwe mulifa! Nti mulimalira obulamu bwammwe mu kussa n'amaziga, era ku nkomerero mulisuulibwa mu Nnyanja ey'Omuliro!

Neegomba, leero ekiro, okubawa okusanyusa n'okugumya. Njagala okubakubiriza mukaabe n'amaanyi agasingawo! Mujje eri Omusaalaba mugukwate, era mweyame nti temuliva mu kisiikirize kyagwo okutuusa lwe muliraba ekirabo omwoyo gwammwe kye gwegomba. Njagala okubakwasa, singa Katonda Omwoyo Omutukuvu anaayamba, mulyoke mwogere munda yammwe, nga Kaddulubaale Eseza, nti "Ndigenda eri Kabaka, era bwe ndiba ow'okuzikirira, nzikirira." Era mugatteko obweyamo bwa Yakobo, nti "Sijja kukuta nga tompadde mukisa!" Kale kino kye kibuuzo ekiri mu maaso: KATONDA AWULIRA BANNAMUŊŊOONA ABATO. ATE TALIBAWULIRA MMWE?

I. Nkakasa nti alikola bwe atyo, okusooka, bwe nzijukira nti awulira okukaaba kwa namuŋŋoona omunafu, era nti mmwe, mu ngeri emu, muli ba muwendo nnyo okukira namuŋŋoona. Namuŋŋoona kinyonyi kya muzizo bunafu, obufa bwakyo obw'amangu tebwandireese kituulo kya nnaku mu bitonde. Singa bannamuŋŋoona enkumi zaanyoolebwa ensingo enkya, sirowooza nti wandibaddewo ennaku n'okunakuwala okw'amaanyi mu nsi olw'ebyo! Kyandibadde bunyonyi bwa nnaku bufudde, kaakano nga kye kyokka.

Naye ggwe oli mwoyo ogutafa! Namuŋŋoona aggwaawo obulamu bwe bwe buggwaako—tewaba namuŋŋoona nate. Naye obulamu bwo obwa kaakano bwe buliggwaako, toliba oggwaawo—oba otandise olugendo ku nnyanja y'obulamu—oba otandise okubeera omulamu emirembe gyonna. Oliraba ensozi z'ensi enkadde nga zisaanawo omwoyo gwo ogutafa nga tegunnaggwaawo! Omwezi guliba gumaze okuzikiza ekitangaala kyagwo ekinafu, n'omuliro gw'enjuba ogusinga amaanyi guliba guzikizibbwa mu kizikiza eky'olubeerera, ate ng'omwoyo gwo gukyagenda mu maaso mu lugendo lwagwo olutaggwaawo—olugendo olutaggwaawo olw'ennaku, okuggyako ng'Katonda awulidde okukaaba kwo—

"Ayi, amazima ago amanene, Ono afa, alyambala obutafa! Enkulukuta y'amagezi terirekera kutambula; Nga Katonda amuzuukusizza, etutumira emirembe gyonna, Ey'olubeerera ng'obutaggwaawo bwe yennyini! Waggulu w'abamalayika, oba wansi wa baddayimooni: Okulinnya mu Kitiibwa, oba mu nsonyi okuserengeta—Omuntu yateekebwawo okugenda gy'alema okuziyiza." Kale, olowooza nti Katonda aliwulira ekinyonyi ekyo ekinaku ekiriwo ne kitabaawo—ekiriwo akaseera n'oluvannyuma ne kisangulibwa mu kubaawo—ate n'atakuwulira ggwe, omwoyo ogutafa, obuwangaazi bwo obugenda kwenkanankana n'obubwe? Ndowooza mazima kirina okubakwatako nti bw'awulira namuŋŋoona afa, aliwulira n'omuntu atafa. Ab'edda baayogera ku Jupita nti yali talina bbanga kufaayo ku bintu bitono, naye Yakuwa yeetoowaza n'afaayo ku kitonde kye ekisembayo obutono, era n'atunula mu bisu by'ennyonyi! Aze atalisaasira myoyo egy'obusika bw'obutaggwaawo obw'entiisa?

Ate era, sirina we nnawuliridde nti bannamuŋŋoona baakolebwa mu kifaananyi kya Katonda! Naye nkizuula nti, wadde ng'eggwanga lyaffe lyonoonese, lyakyamu, era lya nsonyi, okuva ku ntandikwa Katonda yagamba nti, "Tukole omuntu mu kifaananyi kyaffe mu ngeri yaffe." Waliwo ekintu ku muntu ekitali mu bitonde ebya wansi, ebisinga obulungi n'ekitiibwa mu byo biri wansi nnyo w'omwana wa Adamu asembayo obunafu. Waateeswa olukuŋŋaana ku kutonda omuntu, era mu birowoozo bye, ne mu ngeri omubiri gwe gwe gwakolebwa okuyamba amagezi, mulimu okwolesebwa okw'ekyewuunyo okw'amagezi g'Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo.

Leeta wano asingayo okukyama, atamanyiddwa, era omwonoonyi mu bantu, era—wadde nga siyinza kuwaana mpisa za muntu—naye waliwo ekitiibwa ku kuba omuntu ekitali mu nsolo zonna ez'oku ttale, ne bwe ziba nga bwe ziri. Behemoosi ne Leviyasaani bafugibwa wansi w'ekigere ky'omuntu. Empungu teyinza kubuuka waggulu ng'omwoyo gw'omuntu bwe gulinnya, wadde empologoma okulya ku mmere ey'ekikabaka omwoyo gw'omuntu gwe gwegomba. Ate olowooza nti Katonda aliwulira ekitonde ekya wansi era ekinyoomebwa nga namuŋŋoona ate n'atakuwulira ggwe, ng'oli omu ku ggwanga eryakolebwa mu kifaananyi kye ye?

Ayi, tolowooza bubi era bya busirusiru bwe bityo ku Oyo amakubo ge bwe gali ag'obwenkanya bulijjo! Kino nkibateeka mmwe bennyini. Obutonde bwennyini tebuyigiriza nti omuntu asaanidde okufaayirwako okusinga ennyonyi ez'omu bbanga? Singa owulira okukaaba kwa bannamuŋŋoona abato, oyinza okubasaasira ennyonyi ezo ne ziwa emmere singa omanyi engeri gy'oziriisa. Naye siyinza kukkiriza nti waliwo ku mmwe ayinza okutaasa ennyonyi, ate n'atabuuka ku biwaawaatiro eby'okusaasira okulokola omwana omuwere afa, gw'oyinza okuwulira ng'akaabira mu kifo gye yasuulibwa olw'obutafaayo obukambwe! Singa, mu kasiriikiriro k'ekiro, owulira eddoboozi ery'ennaku ery'omuntu afiira mu bulwadde, atasaasirwa mu nguudo, tewandigolokose n'omuyamba?

Nkakasa nti wandikoze bw'otyo bw'oba omu ku abo abandiyambye namuŋŋoona. Bw'oba n'akasaasira konna eri namuŋŋoona, mazima wandisaasidde nnyo omuntu okusingawo! Mmanyi nti kyogerwa mu kyama nti waliwo abamu abasirusiru abafaayo ku mbwa ezitalina maka okusinga abasajja n'abakazi abatalina maka—ate nga kisinga okubeera nti abo abasaasira embwa be bo abafaayo ennyo n'ekisa ku bantu. Wabula, nnandirowoozezza obulungi ku bo singa neetaaga obuyambi. Ate tolowooza nti Katonda, Oyo Ow'amagezi Gonna, bw'afaayo ku nnyonyi zino ezitannabuuka mu kisu, talifaayo mazima ne ku mmwe?

Omutima gwo gugamba nti, "Yee." Kale okuva kaakano, ddamu obutakkiriza bw'omutima gwo ng'okyusa okuteesa kwagwo okwo okw'obwenkanya n'okulwanyisa gwennyini. Naye mbawulira nga mugamba nti, "Naye laba, namuŋŋoona si mwonoonefu nga nze! Kiyinza okuba ekinyonyi eky'omuzizo, naye tekiyinza kuba kya muzizo nga nze mu mpisa. Kiyinza okuba ekiddugavu mu langi, naye nze ndi muddugavu olw'ekibi! Namuŋŋoona tayinza kumenya Ssabbiiti, tayinza kwogera bya bulimba, tayinza kwenda! Namuŋŋoona tayinza kuba mutamiivu! Tekiyinza kwejjeeza mu mpisa embi ng'ezo nze ze nnyonoonesezza."

Ebyo byonna mbimanyi, Munnange, era kiyinza okulabika gy'oli ng'ekifuula embeera yo etaliiko ssuubi, naye sirowooza nti ddala kiba bwe kityo. Kirowoozeeko akaseera. Kino kikakasa ki? Kikakasa nti oli kitonde ekisobola okwonoona, era, olw'ekyo, oli mwoyo ogulina amagezi ogw'obulamu mu ngeri namuŋŋoona mw'atali mulamu. Oli kitonde ekitambulira mu nsi ey'emyoyo! Oli wa mu nsi ey'emyoyo namuŋŋoona mw'atalina mugabo. Namuŋŋoona tayinza kwonoona, kubanga talina mwoyo, talina bulamu bwa mwoyo. Naye ggwe oli kitonde eky'amagezi, ekitundu kyakyo ekisingako obulungi gwe mwoyo gwo. Kaakano, ng'omwoyo gwa muwendo nnyo okusinga wamu omubiri! Era nga namuŋŋoona—kaakano njogera mu ngeri ey'abantu bonna—si kirala wabula mubiri, ate ggwe olabika ng'oli mwoyo awamu n'omubiri—kubanga singa si bwe kiri tewandisobodde kwonoona—ndaba ne mu kirowoozo ekiddugavu ekimalamu amaanyi akatangaala!

Katonda afaayo ku mubiri, n'omusaayi, n'amagumba, n'ebyoya ebiddugavu, ate n'atafaayo ku magezi go, ku kusiima kwo, ku kusalawo kwo, ku muntu wo ow'omunda, ku mwoyo gwo ogutafa? Ayi, singa okirowoozaako, olina okulaba nti tekisoboka okukaaba kwa namuŋŋoona okuwulirwa okutu kw'Ekisa kya Katonda, ate okusaba kwo ne kunyoomebwa ne kutafiibwako Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo—

"Akawuka akalina ebiwaawaatiro ebitono, Akabuukira ku musana gw'ekiseera kimu. Ekimuli ekissa ky'obudde bw'ettoggo Kye kizuukusa ne kiba ekiramu ekitundu ky'olunaku. Akafuufu akasembayo obutono, oluviiri olusingayo obwewewevu, Byonna biwulira okufaayo kwa Kitaffe ali mu ggulu." Mazima, kale, alissaayo omwoyo eri okukaaba kw'abeetoowaze, era taligaana kusaba kwabwe!

Sisobola kuva ku nsonga eno nga sinnayogera nti okwogera ku namuŋŋoona kusaanidde kugumya mwonoonyi. Ng'omuwandiisi ow'edda bw'awandiika nti, "Mu nnyonyi, tayogera ku kamunye oba kkaamukuukulu, ennyonyi ezissibwamu ekitiibwa era eziriisibwa abalangira. Naye alonda ekinyonyi ekyo ekikyayibwa era ekikambwe, namuŋŋoona akwakwaya, atalina muntu amussaamu mugaso okuggyako ng'alya ku mmeeme y'ensolo enfu eyandimuteganyizza. Kale, laba n'owuunye enkuuma n'ekisa kya Katonda, nti agabirira namuŋŋoona emmere, ekitonde eky'erangi enzikiza ennaku era ekya kaloboozi akatawoomerera—ekitonde ekikyayibwa abantu abasinga obungi, era ekiraga akabi eri abamu. Waliwo enkuuma ya Katonda ennene erabika mu kugabirira ensekere, ekuuŋŋaanya emmere yaayo mu kyeya—naye ennene okusingawo mu namuŋŋoona, atawaana wadde ateefeererako yeefuniire, ate Katonda n'amugabirira n'amuterekera."

Omuntu yandirowoozezza nti Mukama ku bannamuŋŋoona yandigambye nti, Ka beefuniire bokka oba bafe! Nedda, Mukama Katonda tanyooma mulimu gwonna ogw'emikono gye. Namuŋŋoona obulamu bwe abuggya eri Katonda, era kyanva namuŋŋoona agabirirwa Katonda. Si njiibwa ennungi eteriiko musango yokka, naye ne namuŋŋoona omubi afuna emmere ye eri Katonda. Ekyo kyeraga bulungi nti obutaba mulungi bwo, ggwe omwonoonyi omuddugavu, afaanana namuŋŋoona, tebulizibiza kukaaba kwo kuwulirwa mu Ggulu! Obutasaanira omusaayi gwa Yesu gulibuggyawo, n'obucaafu abunaaza ddala okuggyawo. Kkiriza Yesu kyokka, olyoke ofune emirembe!

II. Kale, mu kifo ekiddako, waliwo enjawulo nnene wakati w'okukaaba kwo n'okukaaba kwa namuŋŋoona. Bannamuŋŋoona abato bwe bakaaba ndowooza nga tebamanyi nnyo kye baagala. Balina obuntu obw'obuzaaliranwa obubaleetera okukaabira emmere, naye okukaaba kwabwe mu kwokka tekulaga bwetaavu bwabwe. Wandiraze mangu, ndowooza, nti baagala mmere—naye tebalina njogera nnyumba—tebayogera na kigambo na kimu! Kukaaba kwokka okw'olubeerera, okw'okukwakwaya, okw'okwegomba, era nga kye kyokka.

Naye ggwe omanyi kye weetaaga, era wadde ebigambo byo nga bitono, omutima gwo gumanyi obukaawu bwagwo n'ennaku yaagwo enkambwe. Okussa kwo n'okusinda kwo bulina amakulu agalabika. Okutegeera kwo kuli ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogw'omutima gwo ogulumwa enjala. Omanyi nti weetaaga emirembe n'okusonyiyibwa. Omanyi nti weetaaga Yesu, omusaayi gwe omuwendo, obutuukirivu bwe obutuukiridde. Kaakano, obanga

Katonda awulira okukaaba okw'ekyewuunyo, okw'okuleekaana, okutategeerekeka nga okwa namuŋŋoona, tolowooza nti aliwulira n'okusaba okw'amagezi era okulaga obwetaavu okw'omwoyo omunaku, ali mu bwetaavu, omuvunaanyizibwa, amukaabira nti, "Katonda, onsaasire, nze omwonoonyi"? Mazima amagezi go gakugamba ekyo!

Ate era, bannamuŋŋoona abato tebayinza kukozesa nsonga, kubanga tebalina kutegeera. Tebayinza kwogera nga ggwe bw'oyinza—

"Amanyi ensonga ze nnanditutte Okumeggana ne Katonda wange, Nnandyegayiridde olw'ekisa kye ye, N'olw'omusaayi gw'Omulokozi."

Balina ensonga emu, y'obwetaavu bwabwe obunene, obubaleetera okukaaba, naye okusukka awo tebasobola. Era ne kino tebasobola kukiteeka mu nteekateeka, oba kukinnyonnyola mu lulimi. Naye ggwe olina ensonga nnyingi eziri mu ngalo zo, era olina okutegeera kw'oyinza okuziteekamu ennyiriri n'ozisindika okuzingiza Entebe ey'Ekisa. Mazima, bwe kuba nti okwegayirira kwa namuŋŋoona okutayogerwa kuwangula ne Katonda, mmwe muliwangula nnyo okusinga ne Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo bwe musobola okuwoza ensonga yammwe mu maaso ge era ne mujja gy'ali n'ensonga mu kamwa kammwe! Jjangu, ggwe eyaggwaamu essuubi, ogezese Mukama wange! Nkwegayiridde, kaakano, ka oluyimba olwo olw'ennaku lulinnye mu matu ag'ekisa! Ggula omutima ogwo ogusaanuuka era gufulumye mu maziga singa ebigambo bikusukkiridde amaanyi!

Namuŋŋoona, wabula, ntya nti oluusi aba n'enkizo ku boonoonyi abamu abanoonya Katonda mu kusaba, mu kino: bannamuŋŋoona abato banyiikira nnyo ku mmere yaabwe okusinga abamu bwe banyiikira ku myoyo gyabwe. Kino, wabula, si kya kumalamu mmwe amaanyi, wabula nsonga lwaki musaanidde okunyiikira okusinga bwe mwabadde. Bannamuŋŋoona bwe beetaaga emmere, tebalekera kukaaba okutuusa lwe bagifuna. Tewali kusirisa namuŋŋoona omuto alumwa enjala okutuusa akamwa ke lwe kajjula, era tewali kusirisa mwonoonyi bw'aba anyiikidde ddala okutuusa omutima gwe lwe gujjula ekisa kya Katonda. Nnandyagadde abamu ku mmwe okusaba n'amaanyi agasingawo! "Obwakabaka obw'omu ggulu buyingirwa n'amaanyi, era abantu ab'amaanyi ennyo be babutwala."

Omupurutaani ow'edda yagamba nti, "Okusaba lye ggwanga eriteekeddwa ku mulyango gw'Eggulu okumenya enzigi zaagwo." Olina okuwamba ekibuga n'amaanyi bw'oba oyagala okukifuna! Toligenda mu Ggulu ng'oli ku kitanda eky'ebyoya. Olina okugenda olugendo—tewali kutuuka mu nsi ey'Ekitiibwa ng'oli wenneebase otulo tungi—abagayaavu abaloota baliriina okuzuukukira mu Ggeyeena! Katonda bw'akuleeteredde okuwulira mu mwoyo gwo obwetaavu bw'obulokozi, kaaba ng'oyo eyeebuuse era omulamu! Nyiikira! Kaaba n'eddoboozi ery'waggulu! Toziyiza! Olwo ndowooza olisanga nti ensonga yange ya bwenkanya—nti mu buli ngeri okusaba okw'amagezi, okuwoza, okutegeevu kusinga okuwangula ne Katonda okusinga okuleekaana n'okukwakwaya kwa namuŋŋoona—era nti bw'awulira okukaaba nga okwa namuŋŋoona—kikakata nnyo nti aliwulira n'okukwo.

III. Jjukira nti ensonga y'okusaba kwo esanyusa okutu kwa Katonda okusinga okukaaba kwa namuŋŋoona olw'emmere. Bannamuŋŋoona abato byonna bye basaba mmere—bawe akatono ku nnyama enfu babe nga bamaze. Okukaaba kwo kiteekwa okusinga okusanyusa okutu kwa Katonda, kubanga wegayiririra okusonyiyibwa olw'omusaayi gw'Omwana we omwagalwa. Guba mulimu ogusinga ekitiibwa eri Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo okugaba ebirabo eby'omwoyo okusinga eby'omubiri. Emigga gy'Ekisa kya Katonda gikulukuta okuva mu nzizi ez'waggulu. Mmanyi nti yeetoowaza nnyo n'atakwatirwa nsonyi wadde ng'ateeka emmere mu kamwa ka namuŋŋoona omuto, naye ate waliwo ekitiibwa ekisingawo mu mulimu ogw'okuwa emirembe, n'okusonyiyibwa, n'okutabaganya abaana b'abantu.

Okwagala okw'Olubeerera kwateekawo ekkubo ery'ekisa okuva edda ensi nga tennabaawo, era Amagezi Agatakoma gakolera awamu n'amaanyi agatakoma okutuukiriza enteekateeka ya Katonda. Mazima Mukama ateekwa okusanyukira nnyo okulokola abaana b'abantu! Katonda bw'asanyukira okugabirira ensolo ez'oku ttale, tolowooza nti asanyukira nnyo okusinga okugabirira abaana be ye? Ndowooza wandifunye omulimu ogusanyusa okusinga mu kuyigiriza abaana bo bennyini okusinga mu kuliisa ente yo yokka, oba mu kusaasaanya sayiri eri ennyonyi ku mulyango gw'ekyagi, kubanga mu mulimu ogw'olubereberye mwandibaddemu ekintu ekisingako ekitiibwa, ekyandizuukusizza amaanyi go gonna ne kikuggyamu omuntu wo ow'omunda.

Sirekeddwa wano kuteebereza. Kyawandiikibwa nti, "asanyukira okusaasira." Katonda bw'akozesa amaanyi ge tayinza kunakuwala, kubanga ye Katonda alina essanyu. Naye singa waliwo ekintu ekisoboka nga Katonda Ataliiko Kkomo okuba n'essanyu erisingawo mu kiseera ekimu okusinga ekirala, kiba ng'asonyiyira aboonoonyi olw'omusaayi gwa Yesu ogw'omuwendo. Ayi, Mwonoonyi, bw'okaabira Katonda omuwa omukisa okukola ekyo ky'ayagala okukola okusinga! Asanyukira okusonyiwa, okugumba Efulayimu we mu kifuba kye, okwogera ku mwana we omusaase nti, "Yali azaaye, naye azuuliddwa. Yali afudde, naye mulamu nate." Kino kizzaamu Kitaawe amaanyi mu mutima okusinga okusala ennyana ensava, oba okulunda ente ez'oku nsozi olukumi.

Kale nga bwe kiri, mmwe abaagalwa, musaba ekintu ekiriwa Katonda ekitiibwa ekingi okusinga ekirabo eky'emmere eri bannamuŋŋoona, ndowooza leero waleeta ekikonge eky'amaanyi eky'ennyondo yange ey'okuwoza okumenyaamenya obutakkiriza bwammwe! Katonda Omwoyo Omutukuvu, Omusanyusa ow'amazima, abakolere n'amaanyi! Mazima Katonda awa bannamuŋŋoona emmere talimma mirembe na kusonyiyibwa aboonoonyi abanoonya. Mumugezese! Mumugezese kaakano kennyini! Nedda, temulwa! Mumugezese kaakano!

IV. Tetusaanidde kusaalimba ku nsonga emu ng'omulamwa gwonna gujjudde ebintu bingi. Waliwo ensibuko endala ey'okusanyusa gy'oli, y'eno nti bannamuŋŋoona tebalina we balagirwa okukaaba. Bwe bakaaba, okwegayirira kwabwe tekulina kiragiro kyonna eky'enjawulo ekiva mu kamwa ka Katonda. Naye ggwe olina obuyinza obuva mu biragiro bya Katonda okusemberera Entebe ya Katonda mu kusaba!

Omugagga singa aggulirawo ennyumba ye abo abataayitibwa, mazima yandyaniriza abo abaayitibwa. Bannamuŋŋoona bajja awatali kuyitibwa, ate tebagobwa nga tebafunye! Ggwe olagiddwa okujja nga omugenyi eyayitibwa—kale oyinza otya okugaanibwa? Olowooza nti toyitiddwa kujja? Wuliriza kino: "Buli alikoowoola erinnya lya Mukama alirokoka." "Bw'obanga mu buzibu, nnaakuwonyanga, naawe onongulumizanga." "Mugende mu nsi yonna mubuulire Enjiri eri abantu bonna. Abo bonna abakkiriza ne babatizibwa balirokolebwa, naye abo abatakkiriza balisalirwa omusango ne gubasinga." "Kkiriza Mukama waffe Yesu onoolokolebwa." "Mwenenye, buli omu ku mmwe abatizibwe mu linnya lya Yesu Kristo."

Bino biragiro ebiweereddwa awatali kukoma ku mpisa za muntu. Bakuyita awatali kusasula—nedda, bakulagira ojje. Ayi, oluvannyuma lw'ekyo oyinza okulowooza nti Katonda alikunyooma? Eddirisa liggule, namuŋŋoona ayingira, ne Katonda ow'ekisa tamugoba bweru! Oluggi luggule, n'Ekigambo eky'Okusuubiza kikulagira ojje—tolowooza nti alikugaana, wabula kkiriza nti "alikwaniriza n'ekisa era alikwagala awatali kye musalidde," olwo n'oliwaayo gy'ali ebibala by'akamwa ko. Wabula mugezese! Mumugezese kaakano kennyini!

V. Nate, waliwo endala era ey'amaanyi okusingako. Okukaaba kwa namuŋŋoona omuto si kirala wabula kwe kukaaba okw'obuzaaliranwa okw'ekitonde, naye okukaaba kwo, bwe kuba okw'amazima, kuva ku mulimu gw'Ekisa kya Katonda mu mutima gwo. Namuŋŋoona bw'akaabira eri Eggulu si kirala wabula namuŋŋoona yennyini y'akaaba—naye ggwe bw'okaaba nti, "Katonda, onsaasire, nze omwonoonyi"—Katonda Omwoyo Omutukuvu ye akaabira mu ggwe!

Bwe bulamu obuggya Katonda bw'akuwadde obukaabira eri ensibuko gye bwava okwegatta n'okwogera n'Ensibuko yaabwo ennene. Kyetaaga Katonda yennyini okuteeka omuntu okusaba mu mazima ne mu bwesimbu! Tuyinza, bwe tukirowoozaako, okuyigiriza abaana baffe "okwatula okusaba kwabwe," naye tetuyinza kubayigiriza "kusaba." Oyinza okukola "ekitabo ky'okusaba," naye toyinza kuteeka na kalulu ka "kusaba" mu kitabo, kubanga nsonga ya mwoyo nnyo okuteekebwa wakati w'empapula. Abamu ku mmwe, oboolyawo, muyinza "okusoma okusaba" mu maka. Sijja kunenya mpisa eyo naye nnaayogera kino kyokka ku yo—oyinza okusoma "okusaba" okwo emyaka nsanvu ate n'oba nga tosabye n'omulundi gumu—kubanga okusaba kintu kya njawulo nnyo ku bigambo obwereere.

Okusaba okw'amazima kwe kusuubulagana kw'omutima ne Katonda, era omutima teguyingira busuubuzi bwa mwoyo n'emyalo gy'Eggulu okutuusa Katonda Omwoyo Omutukuvu lw'ateeka empewo mu bitambaala by'eryato n'asindika eryato mu mwalo gwalyo. "kibagwanira okuzaalibwa omulundi ogwokubiri." Bwe wabaawo okusaba okw'amazima mu mutima gwo, wadde ng'ekyama tokimanyi, Katonda Omwoyo Omutukuvu aliwo! Kaakano bw'awulira okukaaba okutava gy'ali, aliwulira nnyo nnyini okwo okuva gy'ali! Oboolyawo obadde weeraliikiriza okumanya oba okukaaba kwo kwa buzaaliranwa oba kwa mwoyo. Kino kiyinza okulabika ng'ekikulu nnyo, era mazima kiri bwe kityo—naye oba okukaaba kwo kuno oba kuli, weyongere okunoonya Mukama!

Oboolyawo obuusabuusa oba okukaaba okw'obuzaaliranwa Katonda akuwulira. Ka nkukakase nti akuwulira. Nzijukira ne njogera ku nsonga eno olulala mu kifo ekimu eky'okusinza eky'Aba Kalivini abasukkiridde. Mu kiseera ekyo nnali mbuulira abaana era mbakubiriza okusaba. Nagamba nti edda nnyo nga sinnaba kukyusibwa mazima nnali nsabye ku birungi ebya buli lunaku, era nti Katonda yali awulidde okusaba kwange. Kino tekyasanyusa baganda bange abalungi ab'essomero ery'abeeyisaayisa! N'oluvannyuma bonna ne banneetooloola nga bagamba nti baagala kumanya kye mpitiddwa, naye mu mazima okuwakanya n'okwemulugunya ng'empisa yaabwe n'enkola yaabwe bwe biri.

"Baneetooloola ng'enjuki. Yee, ng'enjuki bwe zikola bwe baneetooloola!" Bwe waayitawo akaseera, nga bwe nnali nsuubidde, ne badda ku mpisa yaabwe eya bulijjo ey'okuvuma. Ne batandika okugamba nti kuno kwe kwegatta kwa Arimini okw'amaanyi! N'ekigambo ekirala kye baasiima okumpa, lye linnya "Fullerist"—linnya, mu ngeri emu, ery'ekitiibwa nnyo nga nnandibasiimye n'omutima gwange gwonna olw'okuliteeka ku ekyo kye nnali njogedde! Naye okugamba nti Katonda ateekwa okuwulira okusaba kw'abantu ab'obuzaaliranwa kyali kibi okusinga Arimini gye bali, singa waali waliyo ekyandisinze obubi! Baayogera olugero olwo olw'obukuusa nti, "Okusaba kw'omwonoonyi kya muzizo eri Mukama," lwe nnayanukula mangu nga mbabuuza oba baali basobola okundaga ekyawandiikibwa ekyo mu Kigambo kya Katonda, kubanga nnavumiriza nti Setaani ye yasimba ekigambo ekyo, era nti tekyali mu Baibuli n'akatono.

"Ssaddaaka y'aboonoonyi ya muzizo eri Mukama" kiri mu Baibuli, naye ekyo kya njawulo nnyo ku "kusaba kw'omwonoonyi." Ate era waliwo enjawulo eyeeyoleka wakati w'ekigambo omwonoonyi ekyagendererwa awo n'omuntu ow'obuzaaliranwa gwe twali twogerako. Sirowooza nti omuntu atandika okusaba mu ngeri yonna ayinza okubalibwa ng'ali mu "boonoonyi" Sulemaani be yagenderera, era mazima taba mu abo abakyusa amatu gaabwe obutawulira Mateeka, abawandiikibwako nti okusaba kwabwe kya muzizo.

"Naye laba," ne bagamba, "kiyinza kitya Katonda okuwulira okusaba okw'obuzaaliranwa?" Bwe nnasirika akaseera, omukazi omukadde eyali ayambadde ekkanzu emyufu n'asindika mu kacweeka akaali kanneetoolodde n'abagamba mu ngeri ey'amaanyi ennyo, nga maama mu Isirayiri nga bwe yali, nti, "Lwaki muyimusa ekibuuzo kino, nga mwerabidde Katonda kennyini ky'ayogedde! Kiki kino kye mugamba, nti Katonda tawulira kusaba kwa buzaaliranwa? Kale, tawulira bannamuŋŋoona abato bwe bamukaabira? Ate mulowooza nti bo basaba kusaba kwa mwoyo?"

Amangu ago abasajja ab'entalo ne badduka—tewali kuwangulwa kwali kusingako—era omulundi gumu mu bulamu bwabwe baateekwa okuwulira nti bayinza okukyama! Mazima, Baganda bange, kino kiyinza okubagumya n'okubasanyusa! Sijja kubateekako kaakano omulimu ogw'okuzuula oba okusaba kwammwe kwa buzaaliranwa oba kwa mwoyo—oba kuva mu Mwoyo gwa Katonda oba nedda—kubanga ekyo kiyinza, oboolyawo, okubamalamu amaanyi. Okusaba bwe kuva mu mutima gwo gwennyini, tumanyi engeri gye kwatuukiramu, wadde ggwe nga tomanyi. Katonda awulira bannamuŋŋoona, era nzikiriza nti aliwulira mmwe, era nzikiriza, ate, wadde nga sijja kuyimusa kibuuzo mu mutima gwo, nti awulira okusaba kwo, kubanga—wadde ng'okimanyi—waliwo omulimu ogw'ekyama ogw'Omwoyo gwa Katonda ogugenda mu maaso munda yo ogukuyigiriza okusaba.

VI. Naye nnina ensonga ez'amaanyi ennyo era ezisemberedde ekigendererwa. Bannamuŋŋoona abato bwe bakaaba, bakaabira bokka. Naye ggwe bw'osaba oba n'Omu ow'amaanyi okukusinga asaba naawe! Wulira omwonoonyi oyo ng'akaaba nti, "Katonda, onsaasire, nze omwonoonyi"? Wuliriza! Owulira okukaaba okulala okugenda waggulu awamu n'okukwe? Nedda, tokuwulira kubanga amatu go mazito era makakanyavu, naye Katonda akuwulira. Waliwo eddoboozi eddala, ery'waggulu era eddungi okusinga eryasooka, era erisinga okuwulirwa, erigenda waggulu mu kiseera kye kimu nga lyegayirira nti, "Kitange, basonyiwe olw'omusaayi gwange ogw'omuwendo."

Okuddamu okw'akasoobeere k'omwonoonyi kwa kitiibwa nga okubwatuka kw'eggulu! Tewali mwonoonyi asaba mu mazima nga Kristo tasaba mu kiseera kye kimu! Toyinza kumulaba wadde okumuwulira, naye Yesu tazuukusa buziba bw'omwoyo gwo n'Omwoyo gwe nga n'omwoyo gwe si guzuukusiddwa nagwo. Ayi, Mwonoonyi, okusaba kwo, bwe kutuuka mu maaso ga Katonda, kya njawulo nnyo ku ekyo kye kubeera nga kuva mu ggwe!

Oluusi abaavu bajja gye tuli n'okwegayirira kwe baagala okuweereza ku kkampuni oba ku muntu omukulu. Baleeta okwegayirira ne batusaba tubawozeeko. Kuwandiikiddwa bubi nnyo, mu ngeri ey'ekyewuunyo, era tusobola kwenkanya kutegeera kye baagala. Naye ate, waliwo ekimala okututegeeza kye beetaaga. Okusooka tubakolera ekyokulabirako ekirungi, olwo, nga tumaze okwogera ensonga yaabwe, ne tuteeka erinnya lyaffe ffe wansi. Era bwe tuba n'obuyinza obumu, ddala bafuna kye baagala olw'amaanyi g'erinnya eriteekeddwa wansi w'okwegayirira.

Kino kye kimu Mukama Yesu Kristo ky'akola ku kusaba kwaffe okunaku! Akubakolera ekyokulabirako ekirungi, akuteekako akabonero k'omusaayi gwe ogutangirira, akuteekako erinnya lye ye wansi, ne bwe kityo ne kwambuka eri Entebe ya Katonda. Kwe kusaba kwo, naye ayi, kwe kusaba kwe YE nakwo! Era kye kiba nti kwe kusaba kwe kye kikufuula okuwangula. Kaakano, eno nsonga ya nnyondo ey'amaanyi—bwe kuba nti bannamuŋŋoona bawangula bwe bakaaba bokka, bwe kuba nti okukwakwaya kwabwe okunaku kubaleetera kye beetaaga bokka—okwegayirira okw'ennaku okw'omwonoonyi omunaku akankana kuliwangula nnyo, ayinza okugamba nti, "Olwa Yesu," era ayinza okugatta ensonga ze zonna n'okwegayirira okuweereddwa omukisa nti, "Mukama Yesu Kristo akisaanira! Ayi Mukama, mpa kyo olw'erinnya lye"?

Nesiga nti abo abanoonya be mbadde njogera nabo, abaali bakaabye ebbanga eriwanvu naye nga batya nti tebalyewulirwa, tebalirinda bbanga ddene naye mangu ddala balifuna okuddamu okw'ekisa okw'emirembe! Era bwe bataafune kaakano ekyo omutima gwabwe kye gwegomba, nsuubira nti bayinza okugumibwa okugumiikiriza okutuusa olunaku olw'Ekisa lwe lulikya. Olina okusuubiza bannamuŋŋoona kwe batalina, era ekyo kiyinza okuleeta ensonga endala singa ekiseera kituganya okukyekaliriza. Ggwe akankana, ng'olina okusuubiza okwegayirira, totya wabula onoowulirwa ku Ntebe ey'Ekisa!

Ne kaakano, ka ŋŋambe omwonoonyi, nga mmaliriza, BW'OBA OKAABYE NGA TOFUNYE, WEYONGERE OKUKAABA. "Ddamu emirundi musanvu," yee, era emirundi nsanvu emirundi musanvu! Jjukira nti okusaasira kwa Katonda mu Kristo Yesu kwe ssuubi lyo lyokka!

Kwo kwate, kale, ng'omuntu azaama bw'akwata omuguwa gwe gumu ogumutuukako. Bw'ozikirira ng'osaba okusaasirwa olw'omusaayi ogw'omuwendo, olibeera ow'olubereberye eyali azikiridde bw'atyo! Kaaba! Weyongere bukaaba! Naye ayi, kkiriza nakyo! Kubanga okukkiriza kuleeta emmunyeenye ey'enkya n'obudde okukya.

Mukyala wa John Ryland, Betty, bwe yali agalamidde ng'afa, yali mu kunyolwa okunene okw'omu mutima, wadde nga yamala emyaka mingi nga Mukristaayo. Bba n'amugamba mu ngeri ye ey'enjawulo naye ey'amagezi nti, "Kale, Betty, kiki ekikuluma?" "Ayi, John, nfa, era sirina ssuubi, John!" "Naye, Omwagalwa wange, kale ogenda wa?" "Ngenda mu Ggeyeena!" bwe kwali okuddamu. "Kale," n'agamba, ng'abikka ku nnaku ye enkulu n'akaseko ke aka bulijjo, ng'ayagala okukuba ekikonge ekyandikubye omusumaali ku mutwe ne kigoba amangu okubuusabuusa kwe, "Oteekateeka kukola ki bw'olituukayo, Betty?" Omukazi omulungi teyasobola kuddamu, ne Mukama Ryland n'ayongera nti, "Olowooza nti olisaba bw'olituukayo?"

"Ayi, John," n'agamba, "nnandisabye wonna. Sisobola kwerema kusaba!" "Kale, kale," n'agamba, "baligamba nti, 'Betty Ryland wuuno ng'asaba wano. Mumufulumye! Tetuli baganya muntu kusaba wano! Mumufulumye!" Engeri eno ey'ekyewuunyo ey'okukyogera yaleeta ekitangaala mu mwoyo gwe, n'alaba amangu obusirusiru obw'okuteebereza nti omwoyo ogunoonya Kristo mu mazima gwandisuuliddwa emirembe gyonna okuva mu maaso ge! Kaaba, ggwe Mwoyo! Kaaba! Omwana ng'akyasobola okukaaba, aba mulamu. Era ng'okyasobola okuzingiza Entebe ey'Ekisa, waliwo essuubi gy'oli! Naye wulira era okaabe, era kkiriza ky'owulira, kubanga olw'okukkiriza emirembe gye gifunibwa.

Naye linda katono, nnina ekintu ekirala kye njagala okwogera. Kiyinza okuba nti omaze okufuna omukisa gwennyini gw'okaabira? "Ayi," ogamba, "sandisabye kintu kye mmaze okufuna! Singa mmanyi nti nkirina, nnandirese okukaaba, ne ntandika okutendereza n'okusiima Katonda." Kaakano, simanyi oba mmwe abanoonya mwenna muli mu mbeera ennungi bwe etyo, naye nkakasibwa nti waliwo emyoyo egimu eginoonya egimaze okufuna okusaasira kwe basaba. Mukama, mu kifo ky'okubagamba leero nti, "Munnoonye," agamba nti, "Lwaki munkaabira? Mbawulidde mu kiseera eky'okkirizibwa, era mu kiseera eky'okkirizibwa mbadduukiridde. Nsazeewo ebibi byammwe ng'ekire, n'obutali butuukirivu bwammwe ng'ekire ekikwafu. Mbalokodde. Muli bange. Mbanaazizza ebibi byammwe byonna. Mugende mukkiriza ne musanyuka."

Mu mbeera ng'eyo okutendereza okw'okukkiriza kusaana okusinga okusaba okw'okulumwa. "Ayi," ogamba, "Naye tekirabika nti nnina okusaasira nga nkyakunoonya." Kale, simanyi. Okusaasira oluusi kugwa nga kuzirika ebweru w'oluggi. Tekiyinzika kutwalibwa munda nga kikyazirise, ate ne kirowooza ekiseera kyonna nti kikyali ebweru? Kiyinza okuwulira embwa ng'ekyaboggola, naye ayi, ggwe Mwoyo omunaku, bw'okizuukamu, olisanga nti oli munda w'oluggi era oli mirembe!

Kale abamu ku mmwe muyinza okuba nga muguddemu okuzirika okw'okuggwaamu essuubi mu kiseera kye mujjira eri Kristo. Bwe kiba bwe kityo, Ekisa Ekifuga kibazzeewo, era oboolyawo nze n'aba omukono, leero, ogukikola. Kiki kye munoonya? Abamu ku mmwe musuubira okulaba okwolesebwa okumasamasa, naye nsuubira nti temulikutuukirizibwa kubanga tekugasa na ssente n'akatono mu lukumi. Okwolesebwa kwonna okuli mu nsi okuva ku nnaku ez'ebyamagero, bwe kugattibwa awamu, kwe kuloota bwokka, ku nkomerero—era okuloota si kirala wabula butaliimu! Abantu balya ekyeggulo ekingi ne baloota—buba bubi mu lubuto, oba mulimu gwa bwongo omubi—era nga kye kyokka! Bwe kuba nti okwo kwe kujulizi kwokka kw'olina okw'okukyusibwa, olikola bulungi okukubuusabuusa. Nkwegayiridde toteredde ku kwo—bunyaziba obubi okuzimbako essuubi lyo ery'olubeerera.

Oboolyawo onoonya enneewulira ez'ekyewuunyo—si nga okukubibwa amasannyalaze, naye ekintu eky'enjawulo era eky'obwewuunyo. Nzikiriza, teweetaaga nga tofuna nneewulira ez'ekyewuunyo z'ossaamu omuwendo omungi bwe gutyo. Enneewulira ezo zonna ez'ekyewuunyo abantu abamu ze boogerako nga zeekwatagana n'okukyusibwa ziyinza oba teziyinza kubagasa, naye nkakasa nti mu mazima tezirina kye zeekwatagana n'okukyusibwa okusobola okubeera nga zeetaagisa n'akatono ku kwo!

Nnaakubuuza ekibuuzo oba bibiri. Okkiriza nti oli mwonoonyi? "Yee," ogamba. Naye ka njawulize ekigambo ekyo "mwonoonyi"? Otegeeza nti okkiriza nti omenye Amateeka ga Katonda, nti oli muzza-nsonga ataliiko mugaso eri obufuzi bwa Katonda? Okkiriza nti mu mutima gwo, wadde bwe kityo, omenye Amateeka gonna, era nti osaanira okubonerezebwa okusinziira ku ekyo? "Yee," ogamba, "sikkiriza kyokka ekyo, naye nkiwulira! Muzigo gwe neetikka buli lunaku."

Kaakano ekirala—okkiriza nti Mukama Yesu Kristo ayinza okuggyawo ekibi kino kyo kyonna? Yee, okkiriza ekyo. Kale, oyinza okumwesiga akulokole? Weetaaga okulokolebwa. Toyinza kwerokola wekka. Oyinza okumwesiga akulokole? "Yee," ogamba, "mmaze okukola ekyo." Kale, Munnange omwagalwa, bw'oba oyesiga Yesu mu mazima, kikakata nti olokoddwa, kubanga olina obujulizi bwokka obw'obulokozi obubeerera na buli omu ku ffe! Waliwo obujulizi obulala obuddirira oluvannyuma, ng'obutukuvu n'Ebisa by'Omwoyo, naye obujulizi bwokka obubeerera n'abantu abasingayo obulungi abalamu bwe buno—

"Tewali kye nnina mu ngalo zange,
Naanwaanya butereevu ku Musaalaba gwo."

Oyinza okukozesa oluyimba lwa Jack omutunzi—

"Ndi mwonoonyi munaku era siriiko kantu n'akatono,
Naye Yesu Kristo ye Byonna byange mu Byonna"?

Nsuubira olitambula wala nnyo mu bumanyirivu ku nsonga ezimu okusinga kuno, mu kiseera, naye sijja kwagala oyongereyo na mutwaalo gumu ku musingi gw'obujulizi bwo n'ensonga y'essuubi lyo. Yimirira wenno, era kaakano bw'oggya amaaso go ku buli kintu ekiri munda yo oba ebweru wo n'ogateeka ku Yesu Kristo, n'oweesiga okubonaabona kwe ku Kalivali n'omulimu gwe gwonna ogutangirira ng'omusingi gw'okukkirizibwa kwo mu maaso ga Katonda, olokoddwa! Toyeetaaga kirala! Ovudde mu kufa ng'oyingira mu bulamu. "Amukkiriza tasalibwa musango." "Akkiriza aba n'obulamu obutaggwaawo."

Singa nsisinkana malayika kaakano mu luggya olwo nga nfuluma oluggi lwange nga ndaga mu kisenge kyange, n'aŋŋamba nti—"Charles Spurgeon, nvudde mu Ggulu okukugamba nti osonyiyiddwa," nnandimugambye nti—"Ekyo nkimanyi awatali ggwe kungamba kigambo kya ngeri eyo! Nkimanyi ku buyinza obusinga obubwo obulungi." Era singa ambuuza nga bwe nkimanyi, nnandimuddamu nti, "Ekigambo kya Katonda kirungi gye ndi okusinga ekigambo kya malayika, era akyogedde—'Amukkiriza tasalibwa musango.' Nze mmukkiriza, kyenva sisalibwa musango—era nkimanyi awatali malayika kuŋŋamba."

Temunoonya, mmwe abateganyizibbwa, bamalayika, n'obubonero, n'obujulizi, n'obubonero. Bw'oba weesiga omulimu gwa Yesu ogumaze okuggwa oba olina dda obujulizi obusingayo obulungi obw'obulokozi bwo mu nsi! Olina Ekigambo kya Katonda ekikirwaniriza—kiki ekirala ekyetaagisa? Toyinza kukkiriza Kigambo kya Katonda? Oyinza okukkiriza ekigambo kya kitaawo. Oyinza okukkiriza ekigambo kya maama wo—lwaki toyinza kukkiriza ekigambo kya Katonda? Ayi, emitima emibi nga tulina okuba nga tubuusabuusa Katonda yennyini!

Oboolyawo ogamba nti tewandikoze kintu ekyo. Ayi, naye obuusabuusa Katonda, bw'oteesiga Kristo—kubanga, "atakkiririza mu Katonda ng'amufudde mulimba." Bw'oteesiga Kristo, mu butuufu ogamba nti Katonda mulimba! Toyagala kukyogera, si bwe kiri? Ayi, kkiriza obwesigwa bwa Katonda! Omwoyo gwa Katonda akuwaliririze okukkiriza ekisa kya Kitaawe, n'amaanyi g'omusaayi gw'Omwana, n'okwagala kw'Omwoyo Omutukuvu okuleeta aboonoonyi gy'ali!

Mujje, mmwe Abawuliriza bange abaagalwa, mwegatte nange mu kusaba nti muluŋŋamizibwe Ekisa kya Katonda okulaba mu Yesu byonna bye mwetaaga—

"Okusaba ge maanyi g'ekitonde, gwe mukka gwakyo n'obulamu bwakyo.
Okusaba lye kisumuluzo ekya zaabu ekiggula omulyango gw'ekisa.
Okusaba lwe ddoboozi ery'amagero eryagamba ekiseera nti, kibe bwe kityo.
Okusaba gwe musuwa omutono ogunyeenya ebinywa bya Katonda Ayinzabyonna,
Kale, saba, ggwe kitonde, kubanga bingi era binene bye weetaaga.
Amagezi go, omuntu wo ow'omunda, n'obulamu bwo, bye weetaaga bikuweereza mu kusaba,
Eddagala ery'okweraliikirira kwonna, ekijjanjabi ekinene eky'obulumi bwonna,
Omuzikiriza w'okubuusabuusa, eddagala ery'okuzikirira, ekirwanyisa okweraliikirira kwonna."
