The Gardener

Itekisi yeBhayibhile

UYOHANE 20

14Esatsho, waguquka, wabona uYesu emi; akaqonda noko ukuba nguYesu. 15Wathi kuye uYesu: “Ulilela ntoni, wethu? Ufuna bani?”

Ecinga ukuba ngumgcini-sitiya, wathi kuye: “Ndixelele, mnumzana, apho umbeke khona, ukuba umsusile, ze ndiye kumthatha.”

UYOHANE 20:14-15XHO96Vula kumfundi weBhayibhile

Jesus appears as a gardener, one of the people, low in status. He could have appeared as a president of a country to show the people how to run their lives, but no Jesus appears as a gardener. Why? Is it because people today only listen to the powerful and think those who have little have nothing to say? Will we recognize Jesus if he returns as a gardener?
