Study the Principle of Learning: Exercise Faith in Jesus Christ

Tumia imani katika Yesu Kristo.

Jesus Christ can help me do all things as I exercise faith in Him.

Yesu Kristo anaweza kunisaidia kufanya mambo yote ninapotumia imani Kwake.

Wanafunzi wa Yesu Kristo walikuwa kwenye mashua. Upepo ulikuwa mkali, na mawimbi yalikuwa makubwa. Katikati ya hili, walimwona Yesu akitembea kuja kwao juu ya maji. Mmoja wa wanafunzi Wake, Petro, alimuuliza Yesu kama angeweza kutembea ili kukutana na Yeye juu ya maji. Yesu alimwalika Petro kufanya kitu kilichoonekana kama hakiwezekani.

Biblia hutuambia kile kilichofuatia: “Na wakati Petro aliposhuka kutoka chomboni, akaenda kwa miguu juu ya maji, ili kumwendea Yesu.

“Lakini alipouona upepo mkali, aliogopa; na kuanza kuzama, alipiga yowe, akisema, Bwana, niokoe.

“Mara Yesu akanyoosha mkono wake, akamshika, akamwambia, Ewe mwenye imanihaba, mbona uliona shaka?” Mathayo 14:29–31.

Hapo mwanzo, Petro alitenda kwa imani, na kimiujiza alianza kutembea juu ya maji. Lakini wakati alipoacha kumtazama Yesu na kuanza kuutazama upepo, alianza kuzama. Kama vile Petro, kama unafokasi juu ya uoga wako, unaweza kutaka kuacha. Badala yake, wewe unaweza kufokasi kwa Yesu. Kujifunza lugha mpya inaweza kuonekana haiwezekani. Amini kwamba Yesu Kristo anaweza kukusaidia kufanya mambo ambayo yanaonekana hayawezekani.

Ponder

• Ni baadhi ya njia gani unaweza kufokasi imani yako katika Yesu Kristo wakati unapozidiwa au kuvunjika moyo?

• Ni kwa jinsi gani imani yako katika Yesu Kristo imekua tangu ulipoanza EnglishConnect?
