Oko uNdikhoyo akufunayo emntwini

6Ndoya nantoni kodwa phambi *koNdikhoyo?

Ndokhahlela ndinantoni kuThixo uPhezukonke?

Ngaba ndoya namadini atshiswayo,

ndiye namathole anyaka mnye?

7Ngaba uNdikhoyo wokholiswa na ngamawaka-waka eenkunzi zeegusha,

nangawo amawaka alishumi emilambo yamafutha omnquma?

Ubugwenxa bam ndingabungxengxezela na ngezibulo lam,

isono sam ngesiqhamo somzimba wam?

8Ukuxelelwe, mntundini, oko kulungileyo –

nditsho oko uNdikhoyo akufunayo kuwe:

kukwenza ngobulungisa, uthande ububele,

uhambe ngokuthobileyo kunye noThixo wakho.

Beginning with God’s covenants with Noah, Abram and David, these readings explore God’s ongoing mission to restore his broken creation, drawing people back to himself. God’s mission finds its fulfilment in the person and work of Jesus Christ, a mission which the church continues today
