Ibyo dukora byose ni ukubitsa muri banki yubuzima, kandi buri kubitsa byerekana ibyo dushyira imbere. Ntakibazo cyo gukora - guca nyakatsi, kwitanga kwa buri munsi, amagambo tuvuga, guca imanza - dushora imari mubihe byiteka.
Ikigoye kuri iri hame ni ugutahura icyabaze mubyukuri nibitagenda. Nkuko Pawulo yabivuze, ibintu byose biremewe kuri twe, ariko ntabwo ibintu byose ari byiza. Nibyiza kureba TV, mugihe cyose itabaye imana cyangwa tureba gahunda zubusambanyi; biremewe kugira isuku yimodoka zacu, mugihe zidahinduka intumbero yacu; dusabwa gutunga imiryango yacu, mugihe cyose akazi kadatwara ubuzima bwacu. Iyo ikintu cyose kiza hagati yacu n'Imana, noneho tuba dushora mubutunzi bwigihe gito bwibihembo byisi no kunyurwa.
Twabwirwa n'iki ko ibyo dushyira imbere bidashyizwe ahandi? Isengesho, inyangamugayo, ibarura ryumuntu rigomba kutubwira. Ni iki kimara ibitekerezo byacu byinshi - Imana, umuryango, cyangwa akazi? Nigute dushobora kwishimira kumara umwanya munini - mubyo dukunda cyangwa hamwe na Nyagasani mugusenga no kuzirikana? Ni iki dutegereje kuruta ikindi kintu cyose - umushahara munini cyangwa gukorera umuturanyi utazwi?
Ikintu gishimishije muri iki gice nuko impinduka zubaha Imana ziterwa nimpinduka ziva hanze. Kenshi na kenshi twizera ko nitubona imitima yabantu noneho tuzabona ubudahemuka bwabo, ibyo biyemeje, ndetse namafaranga yabo. Ariko, iki gice cyerekana ko niba dushobora kubanza kubona igitabo cyumufuka, noneho dushobora kubona imitima yabo. Ntabwo imirimo yonyine itanga impinduka zumwuka, ahubwo imirimo ikora ifatanije nimpinduka zimbere. Nkuko Imigani 16: 3 ibivuga, “Wiyegurire Uwiteka imirimo yawe, ibitekerezo byawe bizashingirwaho.”
