UJohn Vianney oNgcwele, oyiNgcwele wosuku lwe-4 ka-Agasti
(NgoMeyi 8, 1786-Agasti 4, 1859)
Ibali likaSt. John Vianney
Indoda enombono yoyisa imiqobo kwaye yenza izinto ezibonakala zingenakwenzeka. UJohn Vianney wayeyindoda enombono: wayefuna ukuba ngumbingeleli. Kodwa kwafuneka oyise imfundo yakhe engekho mthethweni, eyamlungiselela kakuhle izifundo zesemina.
Ukungakwazi kwakhe ukuqonda izifundo zesiLatin kwamnyanzela ukuba ayeke. Kodwa umbono wakhe wokuba ngumbingeleli wamqhubela ukuba afune umhlohli ngasese. Emva kwedabi elide kunye neencwadi, uJohn wamiselwa.
Iimeko ezibiza amanyathelo "angenakwenzeka" amlandela kuyo yonke indawo. Njengomfundisi webandla lase-Ars, uJohn wadibana nabantu ababengenamdla kwaye bekhululekile kubomi babo. Umbono wakhe wamkhokelela kukuzila ukutya okuqinileyo kunye nobusuku obufutshane bokulala.
Ndikunye noCatherine Lassagne kunye noBenedicta Lardet, waseka iLa Providence, indlu yamantombazana. Yindoda nje yombono onokuba nentembelo enjalo ukuba uThixo uya kubonelela ngokomoya nangokwezinto ezibonakalayo zabo bonke abo beza kwenza iProvidence ukuba babe likhaya labo.
Umsebenzi wakhe njengowokuvuma izono ngowona uphumeleleyo uJohn Vianney. Kwiinyanga zasebusika wayechitha iiyure ezili-11 ukuya kwezili-12 ngosuku exolelanisa abantu noThixo. Ngaphandle kokuba umntu wayenikezelwe kumbono wakhe wobizo lwababingeleli, ngekhe akwazi ukusinyamezela esi sipho sakhe imihla ngemihla.
Abantu abaninzi abanakulinda ukuba bathathe umhlala phantsi kwaye bathathe lula, besenza izinto ekudala befuna ukuzenza kodwa bengazange babe nexesha. Kodwa uJohn Vianney wayengacingi ngokuthatha umhlalaphantsi. Njengokuba udumo lwakhe lusasazeka, iiyure ezingaphezulu zichithwe ukukhonza abantu bakaThixo.Kwaye neeyure ezimbalwa azivumela ukuba alale zaziphazanyiswa ngumtyholi.
Ngubani, ukuba akunguye umntu onombono, onokuthi aqhubeke ngamandla akhula? Ngo-1929, uPopu uPius XI wamthiya igama lokuba ngabefundisi bamarhamente emhlabeni jikelele.
Ukucingisisa
Ukungakhathaleli inkolo, kunye nothando lobutyebi, kubonakala ngathi ziimpawu eziqhelekileyo zamaxesha ethu. Umntu ovela kwenye iplanethi osijongileyo ngekhe asigwebe njengabahambi ngezonqulo, sihambela kwenye indawo. UJohn Vianney, kwelinye icala, wayeyindoda ekuhambeni, neenjongo zakhe ziphambi kwakhe ngalo lonke ixesha.
