Timakhala kuti sitidziŵa zoona zake pa nkhaniyo.

Pambuyo pake, iye anati anaphunzilapo kanthu pa zimene zinamucitikilazo.

Ndine wokondwa kuti Yehova anatithandiza kukhalabe omvela.”

Kumbukilani malangizo a mtumwi Paulo akuti: “Pitilizani kulolelana ndi kukhululukilana ndi mtima wonse, ngati wina ali ndi cifukwa codandaulila za mnzake.” (Akol. 3:13) Mlongo wina amene wacibale wake anacotsedwa, anati: “Yehova wanithandiza kukhululukila Akhristu anzanga amene amayesetsa kunithandiza, koma osazindikila kuti akunikhumudwitsa.” Kodi mpingo ungacite ciani kuti uthandize okhulupilika m’banjalo?

Nawonso zinawakhudza kwambili, ndipo anali kulila nane. Anali kunikhalila kumbuyo pamene ena anali kunikambila mabodza. Iwo ananilimbikitsa ngako!”—Aroma 12:13, 15.

Abusa auzimu ayenela kuonetsa cifundo na cikondi ku nkhosa ya Yehova imene ili na cisoni.—1 Ates. 2:7, 8.

Kumbukilani kuti Yehova analipila mtengo wapamwamba kwambili, umene ni nsembe ya dipo la Mwana wake wokondeka, kaamba ka miyoyo ya anthu ocimwa.

(Luka 15:11-32) Ambili amene anasiya coonadi, patapita nthawi anabwelela kwa Atate wawo wacikondi wakumwamba. Ndipo mpingo unawalandila na manja aŵili.

Iye sakhala nafe patali tikakumana na mavuto.” Yehova adzapitiliza kukupatsani “mphamvu yoposa yacibadwa.” (2 Akor. 4:7) Inde, n’zotheka kukhalabe wokhulupilika ngakhale pamene wokondedwa wanu wasiya Yehova.
