IBhayibheli lithi: “Uyasizwa.” *—1 Johane 5:14.Noma kunjalo, njengosemusha ocashunwe ekuqaleni, ungase ukuthole kuyinselele ukuthandaza. Uma kunjalo, yini ongayenza?

Nokho, intsha eningi ingathi ayiwuvuli njalo lo mnyango noma ayikhululeki ukuwuvula. Uma kunjalo ngawe, ungadikibali! Usuyitholile inselele futhi wazibekela umgomo. Okudingayo manje isihluthulelo sokuvula umnyango. Cabangela ezinye zezithiyo ongase ubhekane nazo, kanye nokusikisela kokuthi ungazinqoba kanjani.Ingidi: UKUDEBESELA.“Ngezinye izikhathi ngenxa yesimiso sami esimatasa, ngiyawudebeselela umthandazo.”—UPreeti waseBrithani, oneminyaka engu-20.Isihluthulelo: “Qaphelisisani ukuthi indlela enihamba ngayo ayinjengeyabantu abangahlakaniphile kodwa injengeyabahlakaniphileyo, nizithengisisela ithuba, ngoba izinsuku zimbi.”—Efesu 5:15, 16.Ukusikisela: Khetha isikhathi esingaba kahle sokuthandaza usuku ngalunye, kusengaphambili. Ungasibhala naphansi, njengoba ungabhala into ethile okufanele uyikhumbule. UYoshiko waseJapane oneminyaka engu-18 ubudala, uthi: “Uma ngingabeki isikhathi esiqondile sokuthandaza, ngiba matasa ngezinye izinto.”Ingidi: IZIPHAZAMISO.“Angikwazi ukugxilisa ingqondo, futhi kubonakala sengathi icabanga ngezinye izinto ngaphandle kwalokho engikushoyo.”—UPamela waseMexico, oneminyaka engu-17.Isihluthulelo: “Umlomo ukhuluma ngokuchichima kwenhliziyo.”—Mathewu 12:34.Ukusikisela: Uma ingqondo yakho ivame ukuzula lapho uthandaza, zama ukusho imithandazo emifushane—okungenani kuze kube yilapho usukwazi ukugxilisa ingqondo emthandazweni.

Lokho kungisiza ukuba ngingathemelezi.” *Ingidi: UKUNGABAZA.“Ngake ngathandaza ngenkinga ethile esikoleni, kodwa ayizange iphele. Empeleni, kwaphakama izinkinga ezengeziwe. Ngacabanga, ‘Kungani ngiqhubeka ngithandaza? UJehova akangilaleli!’”—UMinori waseJapane, oneminyaka engu-15.Isihluthulelo: “Kanye naleso silingo [uJehova uNkulunkulu] uyokwenza nendlela yokuphuma ukuze nikwazi ukusikhuthazelela.”—1 Korinte 10:13.Ukusikisela: Kunento eyodwa eqinisekile: UJehova ‘unguMuzwi womthandazo.’ (IHubo 65:2) Ngakho ngemva kokuthandaza ngodaba oluthile, zama ukuba nombono ophelele ngesimo.

Yileyo ndlela okumelwe ukuba uJehova uzizwa ngayo uma siyeka ukuthandaza kuye.”—UChinta wase-Australia.“Bengilokhu nginomuzwa wokuthi akulungile ukuveza imizwelo yami.

(Nehemiya 2:1-5) Nawe ungathandaza buthule kuJehova ngaphandle kokuzidonsela amehlo abantu.—Filipi 4:5.Ingidi: UKUZIZWA UNGAFANELEKI.“UJehova uyazazi kakade izinkinga zami.

La mavesi ayokusiza uqaphele ukuthi uJehova uyafuna ukukulalela nokuthi akudingeki ukuba ube isidlakela esingokomoya ukuze akulalele. Umhubi uDavide—owayekwazi ukuthi kunjani ukuba nezinkinga nokucindezeleka—wazwakalisa ithemba lokuthi “uJehova useduze nalabo abaphukile enhliziyweni; futhi uyabasindisa abanomoya ochobozekile.” *—IHubo 34:18.Iqiniso lokuthi uJehova uqobo olalela imithandazo yakho libonisa ukuthi unesithakazelo kuwe. UNicole wase-Italy, oneminyaka engu-17, uthi: “UJehova akakuphathisanga izingelosi ukulalela imithandazo yethu. Kusobala ukuthi njengoba eyilalela mathupha imithandazo yethu, kumelwe ukuba uyibheka njengebalulekile.”^ isig. 1 Ngenxa yokuthi ukuzwa koMdali akuxhomekile emazeni omsindo, ‘angezwa’ ngisho namazwi esiwasho ngenhliziyo.—IHubo 19:14.^ isig. 9 Bheka esithi “Umbono WeBhayibheli: UNkulunkulu Uzibheka Kanjani Izinto Ezisiza Ekukhulekeleni?” ekhasini 18.^ isig. 4 Uma unomuzwa wokuthi imithandazo yakho iyathiyeka ngoba wenzé isono esingathí sina, kufanele ukhulume nabazali bakho. Futhi, ‘[cela usizo] emadodeni amadala ebandla.’ (Jakobe 5:14) Abadala bangakusiza ukuba uvuselele ubuhlobo bakho noNkulunkulu.Yiziphi ezinye zezinto uJehova azikhathalelayo ongase uthandaze ngazo?Yiziphi ezinye zezindaba ezithinta abanye ongase uthandaze ngazo kuJehova?
