(Yes. 54:13) Kuyankha pa misonkhano ya mpingo ndi kuchita khama mu utumiki wakumunda n’zofunikanso kwambiri kuti tikhale ndi mtendere komanso chimwemwe.

(Miy. 16:20) Ngakhale anthu amene angoyamba kumene kuphunzira Baibulo angayesetse kuchita zimenezi. Anthu ena osakhulupirira saletsa mwamuna kapena mkazi wawo kuti aziphunzira Baibulo. Iwo angafike pozindikira kuti kuphunzira Baibulo kungathandize banja lawo. Koma ena angatsutse mwamphamvu kwambiri. Esther, yemwe panopa ndi Mboni, ananena kuti anakwiya kwambiri pamene mwamuna wake anayamba kuphunzira Baibulo ndi Mboni za Yehova. Iye anati: “Ndinkataya mabuku ake kapena kuwaotcha kumene.” Howard, amene poyamba sankafuna kuti mkazi wake aziphunzira Baibulo, ananena kuti: “Amuna ambiri amaopa kuti akazi awo angapusitsidwe kuti alowe chipembedzo china.

Nthawi zambiri kukhala wofatsa komanso kulemekeza wosakhulupirirayo kungathandize kuthetsa vutoli.

Iye anati a Mboni akundipusitsa kuti ndisiye zimene ndinkakhulupirira. M’malo mokangana naye ndinkamuuza kuti mwina akunena zoona koma si mmene ineyo ndikuonera. Ndiyeno ndinamupempha kuti awerenge buku limene ndinkaphunzira. Atawerenga sanathe kutsutsa zimene bukulo linkanena.

Choncho amafunika kusonyezedwa chikondi chachikulu kuti athetse maganizo amenewa.

Mayi wina amene anayamba kuphunzira choonadi patapita zaka 18 kuchokera pamene mwamuna wake anayamba kuphunzira anati, “Ndinkafunika kuti ndiziphunzira pang’onopang’ono.” Ngati panopa mukuphunzira ndi munthu amene mwamuna kapena mkazi wake sakufuna kuphunzira Baibulo, mungachite bwino kumuthandiza kuti adziwe zoyenera kuchita ngati patabuka vuto kapena nkhani inayake. Muziyeserera kuchita zimenezi. Mose anati: “Malangizo anga adzagwa ngati mvula, mawu anga adzatsika ngati mame, ngati mvula yowaza pa udzu.” (Deut. 32:2) Mfundo za choonadi zimene timauza ena ziyenera kukhala ngati mvula yowaza osati ngati chimvula chamkuntho.

Chimodzimodzinso ndi mwamuna wachikhristu. Iye ayenera kukhala mutu wachikondi komanso kuchita zinthu mogwirizana ndi malangizo a Mulungu ngakhale pamene akutsutsidwa ndi mkazi wake.—1 Pet. 3:7-9.

Usiku wa tsiku limenelo Steve anali atandimenya pamene ndinali kumufotokozera mfundo inayake. Ndinali wokhumudwa komanso ndinkadzimvera chisoni. Nditamufotokozera mlongoyo zimene zinachitika ndiponso mmene ndinkamvera, iye anandiuza kuti ndiwerenge lemba la 1 Akorinto 13:4-7.

Mwamuna wina amene anali wosakhulupirira anati: “Mkhristu akayamba kusonyeza makhalidwe abwino sadziwa mmene mnzake wosakhulupirirayo akumvera m’maganizo ndi mumtima mwake. Choncho musataye mtima ngati mwamuna kapena mkazi wanu ndi wosakhulupirira.”
