Utsotsi namasimba masimba zvichaguma. “Nokuti vanoita zvakaipa vachagurwa; . . . wakaipa haachazovipo.” Avo vanorarama “uchagara pasi pomuzambiringa wake napasi pomuonde wake, hakuna ungazovatyisa, nokuti muromo waJehovha wehondo wakataura izvozvo.”—Pisarema 37:9, 10; Mika 4:4.
Mapoka edzinza noorudzi, uye hondo izvo zvinonyandura, zvichava zvaparara. “Rumwe rudzi harungazosimudziri rumwe rudzi munondo, havangazodzidzi kurwa.”—Isaya 2:4.

Mukuwedzera, kuchava noutano noupenyu zvokufarikanya nazvo izvi zvikomborero. Kunyange mukati moushumiri hwapasi hwaJesu, kwakataurwa zvechokwadi kuti “mapofu anoona, vanokamhina vanofamba, vana maperembudzi vanonatswa, vemhatsi vanonzwa.” Zvisinei, chipikirwa chikuru zvikuru chichashanda, chinoti: “Iye [Mwari] achapukuta musodzi uri wose pamaziso avo, uye rufu haruchazotongovipozve, uyewo kuchema kana kuti kurira kana kuti kurwadziwa hazvichazotongovipozve. Zvinhu zvokutanga zvaparara.”—Ruka 7:22; Zvakazarurwa 21:4, NW.
Ichinjo yakaisvonaka zvakadini! Inyaradzo yakadini iyo ikoku kwose kuchaunza kurudzi rwomunhu rwatambudzika! Tinokukurudzira kuzviisa umene pasi kunyange zvino poUmambo hwaMwari, kuti iwewo ugowana betsero dzichabva muiyi chinjo inokosha zvikuru muumambo hwenyika.
