Tuni a Pate Ni I zat un khenkhatte a dingin hun nuam taka hi thei a. Himahleh khenkhatte adingin hun nuamlou leng ahi thei bok a. khenkhatte’n na pate uh toh tengkhawm napi a na pate uh theicianlou leng tampi na om thei ua.

Pa giloupi leh mivuak hattak nei khate adding bangin Pathian bang leng Pate bang a ngaihtuah thil haksapi ahi thei a. New York a pastor khat in tuh a saptuam ua Toupa Hon Sinsak Thumna bang leng “ Ka pa uh vaan a om’ cilou in “ Pathian vaan a om, ka pi bang a hon it’ ci a kheng ka hi uh aci a. Aziak ahihleh, huai saptuam memberte pate kha inn a om ngeilou, mivuak hat, phunciak lua khong ahih ziak uh ahi a. A pi te un it pen a akitheih ziak uh ahi a. Huai ziak in, Pathian’ pat bang a ittu bang a pomhksa sa uh ahi hi.

Tampite nekzonna a lohcing bang, a polam et a nuamsa huntawk a kilang bang leng, kuamah muhphaaklouh leh theih pihlouh in sung-gil ah a pate uh toh kal ahoihlouh ziak a nuamsa hetlou gaalguuk dou gige bang leng tampi a om ua. Khenkhatte a pate un itlou a kithei a lungsim sung gil a ‘ahawm’ khat toh hankhuk a alut dong ua lungsim na vilvel gige bang leng om thei uh hi.

Tapa Taimang Tangthu

Khenkhatte’n Tapa Taimang Tangthu icih uh hih ‘ Na Ngak Ngiitngeet Pa Khat’ cih zawk ding ahi aci ua,khenkhat leuleu in lah ‘Unau Nih Tangthu’ cih zawk ding ahi aci hial uh hi.

Bangteng hileh, a tangthu hici bang in genta le: Nikhat tangvalnou khat apa kiang a vapai in ‘ pa, sikhin bang in kingai inla, tuni na sihni zingciang dan in koih inla, na gou kei tan thouthou ding teng tun honpe ngal in. tua deih ngal ka hi. Sum tampi nei ut ka hi, sum nei leng nuamsa ding a kigingta ka hi’ va ci hi.

A tapa ngetna bang in apa’n a gou tan dingteng a sumtang a pia hi. A pa thil hih hoih leh pil huai ahi de aw? Apa’n bang dia ‘ ngak deuhlai in’ cilou ahi ding? Khenkhatte’n a tate uh ahoih na’ng uh ahihkhaakleh ci in hostel khong ah koih ua, atapa/tanu uh a ding a hoih ding a agintaak uh, sum tampi a senna bang uh na hoihlou mai mahthei hi. Pastor khat in le ‘ka tapa 17 mi in ka lomte toh inn luah a om ka ut’ aci a, kou leng anu toh kum huaizahvel ka hihlai un laizil a inn nosia ka hihciang un, mahni kitoudelh kizilna leng hi ding hiven ci in a ut bang in a tuam in inn ka luah sak ua, tu kum 20 nung in ka tapa un ‘bang dia huai lai a atuam a non om sak’ ci in hon phul den ahi’ aci a. huai a tapa uh kristian leng hi hut nonlou mok hi!!

Hiai tapa taimang hih a va omna lam a a lawm thulimloute toh kikhawl a, numei hoihlou teng toh party nei gige khat uh hi mai thei hi. A inn vengte un thei vek, ahihziak a a nu-le-pa in thei na nungpen leng hithei uh hi. A hilh sunsunte’n leng ‘na naupa uh a omna lam a ‘a cepui thei khop mai’ ci henghang cauh uh leng hi thei hi. A pa’n koilaia hihkhial kha ka hita mai zen a, ci in kisikna leh zumna in pum dim mai thei hi.

Hiai tangval in khual gamla a a omna ah zillai hoihtak va zil khia a. a sum teng va zang gai a, huan ah sum neihlai a lawmte hih lawmtaktak ahihlouh lam va zil khia hi. A gilkial mang bang in, Judate adding a a utlouh penpen uh vokva khoi a, vok an neek khong va lung-gulh ngoihngoih hi. Huai vok kul apan in hong halh khia a. A pa kiang a athu gen ding teng hon ngaihtuah in apa siahlohte khat bang a om van ngen dingin hong kisa a. Gilkial tak kawm in inn lam hon zuan hi.

A pa’n niteng in ‘ka tapa ahong kik de aw’ ci a a hongpaina ding lam na en gige hi mai thei hi. Huai ziakin, gamlapi hong tuna pan in apa’n na gaal muh pah hi. A tapa a gaal muh in puteek e cilou in atapa delh in tai ngal hi. Huai hunlai a mite puteek taingeilou uh hi. Puteek a ding in tai hih thilkilawmlou in ngai uh hi.

Atapa in a pa toh akituah ciang ua a thugen dinga akiginna bang hon gen mahleh apa’n theiphalou hi. Atapa pom in na tawp tonton hi. Atapa hong kikna zin buai kei a, hong kik a dam a akimuh ziak un a lungkim hi.

Toupa Jesu thuhilhna a thupipente lak a khat hih mikhialte ihihlai un leng Pathian in hon it hi cih ahi a, hiai tangthu apan in atapa bang cituk in khial mahleh apa’n na pom in a khelhnate ziak in atapa na niallou hi cih I mu hi. Huai mahbang in I khelhnate toh, I ciinlouhna te toh Pathian zong le hang, Amah honna muak dingin kimansa gige hi cih I mu thei hi.

Apa’n zung buh, puan-ak hoih penpente leh khedap honla ding in a sikhate hilh ngal a, bongnou thau gou ding in leng thupe ngal hi.

Hiai tapa taimang in apa tuak masalou in a u pa tuak masa leh bang aci ding???

Hiai tangthu a apa pen mohsak thil kilawmlou bang mahleh, apa mohsa tale hang; bang dia apa’n a tau pa pen inn a thumang tak a om hiathiat pen pahtaak dan siamlou ahi ding? A thulimlou leh tate lak a tuantual pen a ding a hun tamzaw zat hih thil om thei leh thil om sek ahi a, ahihziak in, a thumang a thanuam a nnasem pen mang-ngilh/neglect khaak theih ahi a. A thumang a cih nuampen in kisuang lahtak a ahon ngetna ngai khoklou a, a genhakte leh phunciakte nget teng piak pahpah thei hi thei ahi a. Huci bang a hiai tangthu a a upa mahbang a lungsim guuk a a felte khase velvul a koih khaak theih ahi , cih leng I zil khe thei hi.

Huai ziak in, pa na hihna a lohsam nakisak a, lungsim naa velvul a na om ciang a na theih ding ahihleh;
a) Hun paisa na kheek thei kei, ahihziak in ngaihdam ngen inla, hun om lel leh hun hong tung ding subuai sak ken,
b) Ase zawng a mahni siat theih na’ng khop a mahni moh kisakna neihlouh ding ahi, ase zawng mahni kimohsakna leh a hoih zawng ding a mahni kibawl phat tupna toh mahni hihkelhte et ding ahi,
c) Hun paisa a natate toh nang hih khelhna te ziak a kisiatna na neih uhleh, ngaihdam ngen in hun hong tung ding a pata, nuta’ kal a kingaihnatna hoih zaw neih na’ng in mala in.

Tuni in tapa taimang hiam, tanu taimang hiam, nu taimang hiam, pa taimang hiam ngaihdam ngen a Pathian innkuan sung a om ding a hong kik non a om ziak in, hiai tangthu a I muh mah bang in, vaan ah Pathian in ‘party throw’ mai thei hi.

Pa bawl ding, lam ding hita leng: Hebru 3: 4 “ Ahang bel, inn peuhmah mi khat tei’ lam ahi a, ahihhang a, bang kim lampa bel Pathian ahi”, cih I mu hi.

Pathian hih thil hoih teng lamtu ahi a, pa hoih bang leng a lamtu ahi hi. Tu Pate Ni I zat un, pa khat kem lamdekta leng, bawl dek ta leng, ka duhthu sam kon gen himhim ding hi.

1. Pa lam dek ta leng, pa lung duai/pa thuak zou ka lam ding.
Ka tate tung a ka lungduai louhna, ka kisik mahmah khat kon gen dia: - Ka tate a neulai un tangthu ka hilh dek ciang in a kilawp thei mahmah ua. Ahihziak in ka mai a tuding akituh sek ua. A hong kinak ciang un, thubuai la buai phelh mailou in, na kinak ziak un thangthu leng hon hilh kei ning ci in kei a pa pen kana nuak sek hi.

2. Pathian miitna nei pa ka lam ding
Konelia sepaih za heutu hi a, hun neilou ding a buai mahmah ding hi. Ahihziak in, Pathian miitna nei azi leh tate lohzou hi. Nasepte 10: 1- 3.

3. Itna hau pa ka lam ding.
“ Kumpi pa a liing a, kongpi tunga inndan ah a kahtou a, a kap hi. A pai kawmkawm in: Ka tapa, ka tapa Absolom! Nang sikin kei si zaw leng maw. Absolom aw, ka tapa, ka tapa! A ci a.” 2 Samuel 18 : 33.

Kristian Pa

Kristian pa ka neih ka kipak mahmah,
Hon limsak a, hon awlmoh a, hon hehpih hi.
A hehpihna khut leh a aw men takte,
Ka thei khe zelzel hi.

Na nungchangte kei nungchang ah a belh den a,
Na hon thilpiak thupi pen tuh -
A thu a non hilhte sang in,
Ka muhtheih a etton ding non piakte ahi.

Pate kia in a hihtheih ding uh thu hoihte,
Nang a kipan in tampi ka sin hi.
Kei a dingin makaitu na hi a,
Ka tuna ding ngimna hoihtak non pia a.

Pathian in pa laklak ah a hoihpen honna telsak ei ve,
Hicibang a ahoih tawmcikte lak a khat,
Huaiziak in Pathian kiangah hiai ka ngen hi,
Kei leng ka pa bangin hon bawl in, ci in.
