Wakati mmoja, Yesu alipokuwa akitembea katika mji wa Yerusalemu, alikutana na Mafarisayo. Mafarisayo walikuwa viongozi wa kidini na walidai kuwa walinzi wa Sheria ya Mungu. Hata hivyo, Yesu alikuwa na habari kwamba kulikuwa na ubaguzi na unafiki miongoni mwao. Aliamua kuhutubia jamii juu ya suala hili.
Yesu aliwaambia watu kuwa Sheria ya Mungu inapaswa kutumiwa kwa upendo na haki, na sio kwa ubaguzi. Alinukuu maneno haya kutoka katika kitabu cha Mambo ya Walawi, ambapo Mungu anasema: "Usimdharau jirani yako wala usimpe kilicho kikosa" (Walawi 19:17). Hii ilimaanisha kwamba Mungu anataka tushirikiane na kusaidiana, badala ya kuwabagua wengine.
Mafarisayo walishangaa na maneno haya ya Yesu, na wakawa tayari kumjaribu. Wakamleta mwanamke ambaye alikuwa amepatikana akizini, na wakamwambia Yesu kuwa Sheria ya Mungu inasema mwanamke huyo anapaswa kuuawa kwa kupigwa mawe. Walitaka kumjaribu Yesu, na kuona atakavyojibu.
Lakini Yesu, akiwa na hekima na upendo, akawageuzia Mafarisayo na kuwaambia: "Yeye asiye na dhambi miongoni mwenu, na awe wa kwanza kumtupia jiwe" (Yohana 8:7). Maneno haya yalitikisa mioyo ya Mafarisayo. Waligundua kwamba wao pia walikuwa na dhambi, na hawakuwa na haki ya kumhukumu mwanamke huyo.
Kwa upendo na huruma, Yesu akamwambia mwanamke huyo: "Nenda, wala usitende dhambi tena" (Yohana 8:11). Alimpa nafasi mpya ya kuishi maisha yake kwa kumtegemea Mungu, na akamwonyesha upendo ambao hakupata kutoka kwa Mafarisayo.
Hadithi hii inatufundisha mengi kuhusu jinsi tunavyopaswa kutumia Sheria ya Mungu. Inatuhimiza tujitahidi kuishi kwa upendo na haki, na sio kwa ubaguzi na unafiki. Tunaombwa kutazama ndani yetu na kutambua kwamba sisi sote tu wenye dhambi, na hatuna haki ya kumhukumu mwingine. Ni kwa neema na upendo wa Yesu tu tunaweza kupata msamaha na uzima wa milele.
Je, una maoni gani juu ya hadithi hii? Je, imekugusa moyo wako? Jinsi gani unaweza kutumia mafundisho haya katika maisha yako ya kila siku?
Nakusihi ujaribu kuishi kwa upendo na haki, kama vile Yesu alivyotufundisha. Tufikirie jinsi tunavyowatendea wengine na tuwe tayari kuwasaidia na kuwapenda bila kujali tofauti zao. Na tunaposoma na kusoma Sheria ya Mungu, naomba tufungue mioyo yetu na kuomba Roho Mtakatifu atuongoze katika kuelewa na kutumia Sheria hii kwa njia inayompendeza Mungu.
Hebu tuombe: Ee Mungu wa upendo, tunakuomba utusaidie kuishi kwa upendo na haki katika maisha yetu ya kila siku. Tuonyeshe jinsi ya kuwapenda na kuwahudumia wengine, bila kujali tofauti zao. Tuongoze katika kuelewa na kutumia Sheria yako kwa njia inayompendeza Mungu. Tunaomba haya kwa jina la Yesu, Amina.
Mungu akubariki sana na kukulinda daima!
