Iseluleko seBhayibheli: “Indlela yenu yokuphila mayingabi nalo uthando lwemali, naneliswe izinto ezikhona.”—Hebheru 13:5.

Namuhla ziningi izinto okuthiwa kufanele sibe nazo. Kodwa iBhayibheli lithi singakwazi ‘ukwaneliswa izinto ezikhona.’ Kanjani?

Gwema “uthando lwemali.” Abantu bangenza noma yini ukuze bathole imali ngisho noma lokho kungabaphuca isimilo, kubehlise isithunzi, kulimaze impilo yabo, imindeni yabo kanye nobungane nabanye. (1 Thimothewu 6:10) Cabanga nje! Ekugcineni, umuntu othanda imali “ngeke aneliseke.”—UmShumayeli 5:10.

Thanda abantu, hhayi izinto. Kuyiqiniso ukuthi izinto ezibonakalayo ziyasisiza. Kodwa lezo zinto azikwazi ukusibonisa uthando, abantu kuphela abakwazi ukwenza lokho. Ukuba ‘nomngane weqiniso’ kungasisiza saneliseke ekuphileni.—IzAga 17:17.

Iseluleko seBhayibheli: “Inhliziyo ejabulayo ingumuthi omuhle.”—IzAga 17:22.

Injabulo ifana ‘nomuthi omuhle’ ongasisiza sibhekane nokugula. Kodwa singajabula kanjani sibe sigula?

Zifundise ukubonga. Uma sihlale sicabanga ngezinkinga zethu, “zonke izinsuku” zokuphila kwethu ziyobonakala zizimbi. (IzAga 15:15) IBhayibheli lithi: “Ziboniseni ningababongayo.” (Kolose 3:15) Ngakho, zifundise ukubonga ngezinto ezinhle ozibonayo noma zincane kangakanani. Ziningi izinto ezingasenza sikujabulele ukuphila, kungaba ukubuka ilanga lapho seliyoshona, ukuzwa umoya opholile noma ukubona umuntu omthandayo ehleka.

Yenzela abanye izinto. Ngisho nalapho sigula, singayithola “injabulo eyengeziwe ekupheni kunasekwamukeleni.” (IzEnzo 20:35) Lapho abantu besibonga ngezinto esibenzela zona, siyajabula futhi sikhohlwe izinkinga zethu. Ukusiza abanye kungenza ukuphila kwethu kube ngcono.

Iseluleko seBhayibheli: “Niqiniseke ngezinto ezibaluleke kakhulu.”—Filipi 1:10.

Abantu abashadile abangachithi isikhathi ndawonye babeka umshado wabo engozini. Ngakho kuwukuhlakanipha ukuba indoda nomkayo babheke umshado wabo njengenye yezinto ezibaluleke kakhulu ekuphileni.

Yenzani izinto ndawonye. Kufanele nihlele isikhathi sokwenza izinto ndawonye. IBhayibheli lithi: “Ababili bangcono kunoyedwa.” (UmShumayeli 4:9) Ziningi izinto eningazenza ndawonye njengokupheka, ukujima, ukufunda amakhono amasha nokunye.

Bonisa oshade naye uthando. IBhayibheli likhuthaza indoda nomkayo ukuba bathandane futhi bahloniphane. (Efesu 5:28, 33) Ukupha oshade naye isipho, ukumomotheka ngothando nokumanga ngemfudumalo, kungawuqinisa umshado. Nokho, kufanele izenzo zothando zigcinwe phakathi kwabantu abashadile kuphela.—Hebheru 13:4.
