Baibulo limati: “Atate wa wolungama adzasangalala kwambiri; ndipo iye wakubala wanzeru adzakondwera naye.” (Miyambo 23:24). Mulungu wakuyikani kukhala mutu wa banja lanu kuti muzisamalira ndi kutsogolera banja lanu. Mukapempha thandizo kwa Mulungu, Iye adzakuphunzitsani mmene mungachitire zimenezi.
Monga momwe bambo amachitira chifundo ana awo, momwemonso Ambuye amachitira chifundo anthu amene amamuopa. (Masalmo 103:13).
Chauta ndi wabwino, ndiye kothaŵira pa nthaŵi yamavuto. Amasamala onse amene amadalira Iye.
Ndidapemphera kwa Chauta ndipo adandiyankha. Adandipulumutsa kwa zonse zimene ndinkaziwopa.
Uzikhulupirira Chauta ndi mtima wako wonse, usadalire nzeru zako za kumvetsa zinthu.

Ndipo timalimba mtima pamaso pa Mulungu, popeza kuti amatimvera tikapempha kanthu kalikonse komukomera.
Pamene ukuwoloka nyanja, ndidzakhala nawe, pamene ukuwoloka mitsinje, siidzakukokolola. Pamene ukudutsa pa moto sudzapsa, malaŵi ake sadzakutentha.
Tiyeni tsono tilimbe mtima ndi kunena kuti, “Ambuye ndiwo Mthandizi wanga, sindidzachita mantha. Munthu angandichite chiyani?”
Inu Chauta, mumapatsa mtendere weniweni kwa amene ali ndi mtima wokhazikika, chifukwa chokhulupirira Inu.
Ngakhale gulu lankhondo lindizinge, mtima wanga sudzachita mantha konse. Ngakhale nkhondo ibuke kulimbana nane, ine sindidzaleka kukhulupirira.
Amene amadziŵa dzina lanu, Inu Chauta, amakukhulupirirani, pakuti Inu Chauta simuŵasiya anthu okufunitsitsani.
Usachite mantha chifukwa Ine ndili nawe, usataye mtima, poti Ine ndine Mulungu wako. Ndidzakupatsa mphamvu, ndidzakuthandiza, ndidzakutchinjiriza ndi dzanja langa lamanja logonjetsa.
Chipulumutso changa ndi ulemerero wanga, zonsezo zili kwa Mulungu. Mulungu ndiye thanthwe langa lamphamvu, ndiye kothaŵira kwanga.
Mulungu ndiye kothaŵira kwathu, ndiye mphamvu zathu. Ali wokonzekeratu kutithandiza pa nthaŵi yamavuto.

Koma Ambuye ngokhulupirika, ndipo adzakulimbitsani mtima ndi kukutchinjirizani kwa Woipa uja.
Munthu amene amakhala m'linga la Wopambanazonse, iye amene amakhala mumthunzi mwa Mphambe,

Chauta adzapatsa angelo ake ntchito yoti azikulonda kulikonse kumene upite.
Adzakunyamula m'manja mwao, kuwopa kuti phazi lako lingapweteke ndi mwala.
Udzatha kuponda mkango ndi njoka, zoonadi udzaponda ndi phazi lako msona wa mkango ndiponso chinjoka.
Pakuti amene amandikangamira Ine Mulungu mwachikondi, ndidzampulumutsa. Ndidzamteteza popeza kuti amadziŵa dzina langa.
Akadzandiitana, ndidzamuyankha, ndidzakhala naye pa nthaŵi yamavuto. Ndidzamlanditsa ndi kumlemekeza.
Ndidzampatsa moyo wautali ndi kumpulumutsa.
adzanena kwa Chauta kuti, “Inu ndinu kothaŵira kwanga ndi linga langa, ndinu Mulungu wanga amene ndimakukhulupirirani.”
Pamene ndichita mantha ndimadalira Inu.
Ndimatamanda Mulungu chifukwa cha zimene wandilonjeza. Ndimakhulupirira Mulungu mopanda mantha. Kodi munthu angandichite chiyani?
Chauta ndiye muuni wanga ndi chipulumutso changa. Ndidzaopa yani? Chauta ndiye linga la moyo wanga, nanga ndichitirenji mantha?
Musade nkhaŵa ndi kanthu kalikonse, koma m'mapemphero anu onse muzipempha Mulungu zimene zikusoŵani, ndipo nthaŵi zonse muzipemphe ndi mtima woyamika.
Pamenepo mtendere wochokera kwa Mulungu, umene uli wopitirira nzeru zonse za anthu, udzasunga bwino mitima yanu ndi maganizo anu mwa Khristu Yesu.
Inu ndinu kobisalira kwanga. Inu mumanditchinjiriza nthaŵi yamavuto. Nchifukwa chake ndimaimba nyimbo zotamanda chipulumutso chanu.
Anzako chikwi chimodzi angathe kuphedwa pambali pakopa, kapena zikwi khumi ku dzanja lako lamanja, koma iwe zoopsazo sizidzakukhudza.
Kuthaŵira kwa Chauta nkwabwino kupambana kukhulupirira munthu.
Kuthaŵira kwa Chauta nkwabwino kupambana kukhulupirira mafumu.
Ngwodala munthu amene amadalira Chauta, munthu amene sapatukira ku mafano kapena kutsata milungu yonama.
“Koma ndi wodala munthu wokhulupirira Chauta, amene amagonera pa Chautayo.
Adzakhala ngati mtengo wobzalidwa m'mphepete mwa mtsinje, umene umatambalitsa mizu yake m'mbali mwa madzi. Suwopa kukamatentha, chifukwa masamba ake safota. Pa chaka chachilala sukuda nkhaŵa, ndipo suleka kubala zipatso.”
Chauta mwini wake adzakutsogolera, ndipo adzakhala nawe. Sadzalola kuti ulephere, ndipo sadzakusiya. Motero usachite mantha kapena kutaya mtima.”
Mulungu amene amatipatsa chikhulupiriro, adzaze mitima yanu ndi chimwemwe ndi mtendere pakumvera Iye, kuti chiyembekezo chanu chizikulirakulira ndi mphamvu za Mzimu Woyera.
Tilimbikire kuvomereza mosafookera zimene timaziyembekeza, pakuti Iye amene adatilonjeza zimenezi ngwokhulupirika.
Nanga tsono tinganenenso chiyani pa zonsezi? Ngati Mulungu ali pa mbali yathu, angatsutsane nafe ndani?
“Zoonadi, Mulungu ndiye Mpulumutsi wanga, ndidzamkhulupirira Iye, ndipo sindidzaopa. Pakuti Chauta ndiye mphamvu zondilimbitsa, ndiye amene ndimamuimbira, ndiye Mpulumutsi wanga.”
“Nchifukwa chake ndikukuuzani kuti musamadera nkhaŵa moyo wanu, kuti mudzadyanji, kapena mudzamwanji, kapena thupi lanu, kuti mudzavalanji. Kodi suja moyo umaposa chakudya? Kodi suja thupi limaposa zovala?
Onani mbalame zamumlengalenga. Sizifesa kapena kukolola kapena kututira m'nkhokwe ai. Komabe Atate anu akumwamba amazidyetsa. Nanga inu sindinu amtengowapatali kuposa mbalame?
Ndani mwa inu ndi maganizo ankhaŵa angathe kuwonjezera ngakhale tsiku limodzi pa moyo wake?
Koma Inu Chauta, ndinu chishango changa chonditeteza, ndinu ulemerero wanga, mumalimbitsa mtima wanga ndinu.
Ndimafuulira Chauta kuti andithandize, Iye amandiyankha ali pa phiri lake loyera.
Ndimagona ndipo ndimapeza tulo. Ndimadzukanso m'maŵa pakuti Chauta amanditchinjiriza.
Sindichita mantha ngakhale adani anga ndi osaŵerengeka, ngakhale andizinge ndi kundithira nkhondo.
Ngakhale ndiyende m'chigwa chamdima wabii, sindidzaopa choipa chilichonse, pakuti Inu Ambuye mumakhala nane. Chibonga chanu ndi ndodo yanu zimanditeteza.
Anthu amene amakhulupirira Chauta ndi olimba ngati phiri la Ziyoni, limene silingathe kugwedezeka, koma ndi lokhala mpaka muyaya.
Paja ndidakulamula kuti ukhale wamphamvu. Usamaopa kapena kutaya mtima, poti Ine, Chauta, Mulungu wako, ndidzakhala nawe kulikonse kumene udzapite.”
Ndipo ngati tikudziŵa kuti amatimvera tikapempha kanthu kalikonse, timadziŵanso kuti talandiradi zimene tampempha.
Koma iwe palibe chida chopangidwa ndi mdani chimene chidzakupweteke. Onse okuneneza udzaŵatsutsa. Ndimo adzapezera atumiki anga, ndipo ndidzaŵapambanitsa ndine,” akuterotu Chauta.
Ndipo tikudziŵa kuti Mulungu amayendetsa zinthu mwa njira yoti zonse ziŵakomere anthu omukonda ndipo apindulepo. Anthuwo ndi amene Iye amaŵaitana monga momwe Iye adazikonzera.
Khalani amphamvu ndiponso mulimbe mtima. Musaŵaope anthu ameneŵa, musachite nawo mantha, chifukwa Chauta, Mulungu wanu, adzakhala nanu. Sadzalola kuti mulephere, ndipo sadzakusiyani.
Lolani kuti m'maŵa ndimve za chikondi chanu chosasinthika, chifukwa ndimakhulupirira Inu. Mundisonyeze njira yoti ndiziyendamo, pakuti ndimapereka mtima wanga kwa Inu.
Koma ndimadalira Inu Chauta, ndimati, “Inu ndinu Mulungu wanga.”
Masiku anga ali m'manja mwanu. Pulumutseni kwa adani anga ndi kwa ondizunza.
“Bwerani kwa Ine, inu nonse otopa ndi olemedwa, ndipo Ine ndidzakupatsani mpumulo.
Senzani goli langa ndipo phunzirani kwa Ine, pakuti ndine wofatsa ndi wa mtima wodzichepetsa; mukatero mudzapeza mpumulo m'mitima mwanu.
“Kodi Inu ndinu uja ankati adzabwerayu, kapena tiziyembekezera wina?”
Pajatu goli limene ndimakoleka Ine nlosavuta, ndipo katundu amene ndimasenzetsa Ine ngwopepuka.”
Chauta ndiye muuni wanga ndi chipulumutso changa. Ndidzaopa yani? Chauta ndiye linga la moyo wanga, nanga ndichitirenji mantha?
Ngakhale bambo wanga ndi mai wanga andisiye ndekha, Inu Chauta mudzandisamala.
Mundiwonetse njira zanu zachifundo, Inu Chauta, munditsogolere m'njira yosalala, chifukwa ndili ndi adani ambiri.
Musandipereke m'manja mwa adani angawo. Mboni zonama zandiwukira, ndipo zimandiwopseza.
Ndikhulupirira kuti ndidzaona ubwino wake wa Chauta m'dziko la amoyo.
Tsono khulupirira Chauta. Khala wamphamvu, ndipo ulimbe mtima. Ndithu, khulupirira Chauta.
Pamene adani ndi amaliwongo anga andiputa kuti andiphe, adzaphunthwa ndipo adzagwa.
Ngakhale gulu lankhondo lindizinge, mtima wanga sudzachita mantha konse. Ngakhale nkhondo ibuke kulimbana nane, ine sindidzaleka kukhulupirira.
Mulungu ndiye kothaŵira kwathu, ndiye mphamvu zathu. Ali wokonzekeratu kutithandiza pa nthaŵi yamavuto.
“Khalani chete, ndipo mudziŵe kuti ndine Mulungu. Mitundu ya anthu imanditamanda, a m'dziko lapansi amandiyamika.”
Chauta Wamphamvuzonse ali nafe, Mulungu wa Yakobe ndiye kothaŵira kwathu.
Nchifukwa chake sitidzaopa ngakhale dziko lapansi lisinthike, ngakhale mapiri agwe pakati pa nyanja zozama,
ngakhale nyanja zikokome ndi kututuma. Ngakhale mapiri anjenjemere ndi kulindima kwa nyanja.
Ngakhale Mulungu andiphe, ndidzamkhulupirirabe, ndipo ndidzafotokoza mlandu wanga pamaso pake.
Ndimakweza maso anga ku mapiri. Kodi chithandizo changa chimachokera kuti?
Chithandizo changa nchochokera kwa Chauta, amene adalenga kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi.
Ndidapachikidwa pa mtanda pamodzi ndi Khristu, kotero kuti sindinenso amene ndili ndi moyo, koma ndi Khristu amene ali ndi moyo mwa ine. Moyo umene ndili nawo tsopano m'thupi lino, ndi moyo wokhulupirira Mwana wa Mulungu, amene adandikonda napereka moyo wake chifukwa cha ine.
Tsono Ambuye Chauta, Woyera uja wa Israele adati, “Ngati mutembenuka ndi kubwerera, mudzapulumuka. Ngati mudzinga ndi kukhulupirira, mudzakhala amphamvu.” Koma inu mudakana kutero.
Chauta amene ali pamwamba, ndi wamphamvu kupambana kulindima kwa madzi ambiri, ndi wamphamvu kuposa mafunde am'nyanja.
Mtima wanu usakangamire pa ndalama, ndipo zimene muli nazo, mukhutire nazo. Paja Mulungu adati, “Sindidzakusiyani kapena kukutayani konse.”
Tiyeni tsono tilimbe mtima ndi kunena kuti, “Ambuye ndiwo Mthandizi wanga, sindidzachita mantha. Munthu angandichite chiyani?”
