Ua kākauʻia ma kona lima
"Ua hāpai mau wau iā ia ma koʻu mau lima. Ka naʻe ʻikai ʻiloʻi ʻe he kakai ʻo ʻIsileli ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻiate au ia” (Hosea 11:3 Hope for All).
ʻOiai e ʻimi ana i kaʻu hihia mea hana, ua ʻike wau i kahi ʻāpaka paka kahiko, mai ka makahiki 60 paha. Ua ʻoki hāmama ʻia a hana ʻia kahi ʻāpana nui loa. Aia ma luna ona kahi kaha kiʻi o kahi plug ʻekolu kiko a me nā ʻōkuhi no ka hoʻohana ʻana pehea e uea ai. Ma hope o kēia mau makahiki ʻaʻole au i hoʻomanaʻo i ka mea nāna i kākau i kēlā, akā hoʻomanaʻo ia iaʻu i kahi ʻōlelo:
Hoʻomaopopo pū kekahi iaʻu ua kākau ke Akua i nā mea ʻano ʻē. He aha kaʻu manaʻo ma ia mea? ʻĀ, heluhelu mākou e pili ana iā ia i ke kākau ʻana i nā inoa ma kona mau lima. Ua haʻi mai ʻo ʻIsaia iā mākou e pili ana i kēia ʻōlelo ma ka mokuna 49 o kāna puke. Ua ʻōlelo ke Akua ma nā paukū 8-13 e hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i ka ʻIseraʻela mai ka lawe pio ʻana i Babulona me ka mana nui a me ka hauʻoli. E nānā i nā paukū 14-16. Ke kanikau nei ʻo Ierusalema, "ʻĀ, ua haʻalele ka Haku iaʻu, ua poina ʻo ia iaʻu ma mua." Akā pane ka Haku, "Hiki i kahi makuahine ke poina i kāna pēpē? Loaʻa iā ia ka puʻuwai e haʻalele i ke keiki hānau hou i kona hopena? A inā poina ʻo ia, ʻaʻole wau e poina iā ʻoe! Ua kākau wau i kou inoa me ka molowa ʻole ma nā poho lima o koʻu mau lima. ”(HfA) Ma ʻaneʻi e hoʻolaha ai ke Akua i kona kūpaʻa piha i kāna poʻe kānaka! Hoʻomaopopo e hoʻohana ʻo ia i ʻelua mau kiʻi kūikawā, ke aloha makuahine a me ke kākau ʻana ma kona mau lima, kahi hoʻomanaʻo mau nona iho a me kona poʻe!
Inā mākou e huli iā Ieremia a heluhelu i ka ʻōlelo a ke Akua i ʻōlelo mai ai penei: "Aia hoʻi, e hiki mai ana nā lā, wahi a Iēhova, e hana ai au i berita hou me ka ʻohana a ʻIseraʻela a me ka ʻohana a Iuda; ʻaʻole like me ka berita aʻu i hana ai me ko lākou poʻe kūpuna i ka lā aʻu i lālau ai i ko lākou lima e lawe mai iā lākou mai ka ʻāina ʻo ʻAigupita mai; no ka mea, ua uhaʻi lākou i kaʻu berita, ʻoiai ʻo wau ke kāne na lākou, wahi a Iēhova. Aka, eia ka berita a'u e hana aku ai me ka ohana a Iseraela mahope iho o ia mau la, wahi a Iehova; E kau au i ko'u kanawai iloko o lakou, a e kakau iho au ma ko lakou naau, a e lilo au i Akua no lakou, a e lilo lakou i poe kanaka no'u" (Ieremia 31:31-33 Schlachter 2000). Hōʻike hou ke Akua i kona aloha i kona poʻe kānaka a kākau hou ma ke ʻano kūikawā, i kēia manawa ma ko lākou naʻau. Akā, e hoʻomaopopo, he berita hou kēia, ʻaʻole like me ka berita kahiko, ma muli o ka pono a me nā hana, akā he pilina i loko, kahi e hāʻawi ai ke Akua iā ʻoe i ka ʻike pili a me ka pilina me ia iho!
E like me kēlā me kēia pahu pia i ʻoki ʻia, ka mea e hoʻomanaʻo mai ai i nā pili ʻana o ke kolu o nā ʻekolu, ua kākau nō ko mākou makuakāne ma nā wahi ʻekahi: "Ma kāna mau lima, e hoʻomanaʻo mai ana i kāna kūpaʻa ʻana, a me ko mākou mau puʻuwai hoʻi, ka hoʻohiki ʻana iā mākou me kāna kānāwai ʻuhane. ke aloha e hoʻopiha! "
E hoʻomanaʻo mau mākou e aloha maoli iā mākou a kākau iā ia i mea i hōʻike ʻia.
pule:
E ka makua, e hoʻomaikaʻi iā ʻoe no ke wehewehe ʻana i ka waiwai o mākou iā ʻoe ma kahi ʻano kūikawā - aloha mākou pū kekahi iā ʻoe. Amama
