Study the Principle of Learning: Learn by Study and by Faith

Jifunze Kwa Kusoma na Kwa Imani

In EnglishConnect, we rely on God to learn by study and by faith.

Katika EnglishConnect, tunamtegemea Mungu ili kujifunza kwa kusoma na kwa imani.

Mnamo mwaka wa 1832, Joseph Smith na baadhi ya viongozi wa mwanzo wa Kanisa la Yesu Kristo la Watakatifu wa Siku za Mwisho walikuwa wameelekezwa kuanzisha shule. Mungu aliwataka wao kujifunza, kukua na kujiandaa kuwaongoza wengine. Hili kundi la waumini hawakuwa na shahada kutoka vyuo vikuu au hata elimu kubwa. Hawakuwa na fedha nyingi au rasilimali. Katika maandiko, Mungu aliwafundisha wao mpangilio wa kujifunza:

“Na kwa vile wote hamna imani, tafuteni kwa bidii na kufundishana maneno ya hekima; ndiyo, tafuteni kutoka kwenye vitabu vizuri maneno ya hekima; tafuteni maarifa, hata kwa kujifunza na pia kwa imani” (Mafundisho na Maagano 88:118).

Mungu hufundisha kwamba tunahitaji kujifunza kwa kusoma, na pia tunahitaji kujifunza kwa imani. Tunafanya bidii yetu yote, na tunamuomba Mungu amtume Roho Wake ili afungue akili zetu na mioyo yetu ili tujifunze. Roho hutupa uelewa zaidi kuliko inavyowezekana peke yetu wenyewe. Kuwa na mwalimu bora au vitabu bora inaweza kusaidia, lakini Mungu anaweza kutufundisha hata kama hatuna vitu hivyo. Tunapojifunza kwa kusoma na kwa imani, Mungu anaweza kutusaidia kujifunza zaidi tunavyoweza kuliko tudhaniavyo.

Ponder

• Je, tunaweza kufanya nini ili tutafute kujifunza “kwa kusoma na kwa imani.”?

• Fikiria kuhusu uzoefu wako katika EnglishConnect. Ni kwa jinsi gani Mungu amekusaidia wewe kujifunza?

“Kutafuta maarifa kwa kujifunza kwa kawaida huweka akili zetu kazini. Kutafuta kujifunza kwa imani huweka vyote viwili, mioyo yetu na akili zetu kazini. Ni katika mioyo yetu na akili zetu ambapo tutahisi madhihirisho ya Roho Mtakatifu” (Camille N. Johnson, “Seek Learning by Study and by Faith,” BYU-Pathway Worldwide Devotional, October 2021).
