Unilishe chakula nilichopewa; Nisije nikashiba nikakukana, nikasema, &#039;Bwana ni nani?&#039; Au nisije nikawa maskini nikaiba, nikalinajisi jina la Mungu wangu.&quot;\u2018<br \/><strong>Mithali 30:7\u20139<\/strong><\/em><\/p><p>Tumeona kwamba katika maombi yake Aguri alimwomba Bwana mambo mawili mahususi: uadilifu na kuridhika. Tayari tumeangalia hamu yake ya uadilifu; sasa hebu tuangalie sehemu ya pili ya maombi yake\u2014tamaa yake ya kuridhika na kile ambacho Mungu alimpatia. Hii inaitwa kuridhika.<\/p><p>Bwana Yesu anatukumbusha, \u201cMaana hazina yako ilipo, ndipo moyo wako utakapokuwapo pia\u201d (Mt. 6:21). Mtume Paulo aliandika, \u201cLakini utauwa pamoja na kuridhika ni faida kubwa \u2026 Kwa maana kupenda pesa ni mzizi wa uovu wa kila aina\u201d (1 Tim. 6:6, 10). Mistari hii inatukumbusha mahali ambapo vipaumbele vyetu vinapaswa kuwekwa.<\/p><p>Hakuna ubaya wowote kuombea mahitaji yetu: \u201cUtupe leo mkate wetu wa kila siku \u2026 Wala usitutie majaribuni, bali utuokoe na yule mwovu\u201d (Mt. 6:11, 13). Lakini hatupaswi \u201ckujisumbua, tukisema, \u2018Tule nini?\u2019 au \u2018Tunywe nini?\u2019 au \u2018Tuvae nini?\u2019 Kwa maana hayo yote Mataifa huyatafuta. Kwa maana Baba yenu wa mbinguni anajua ya kuwa mnahitaji hayo yote. Bali utafuteni kwanza ufalme wa Mungu na haki yake, na hayo yote mtazidishiwa\u201d (Mathayo 6:31-33).<\/p><p>Tunaona kuridhika huku kwa mtume Paulo alipoandika, &quot;Si kwamba nasema hivi kwa habari ya uhitaji; maana nimejifunza kuridhika katika hali yoyote niliyo nayo. Najua kudhiliwa, tena najua kufanikiwa; kila mahali na katika mambo yote, nimejifunza kushiba na kuona njaa, kuwa na vingi na kuhitaji&quot; (Wafilipi 4:11-12).<\/p><p>Kama wafuasi wa Yesu Kristo, anataka tumwamini Yeye kwa kila hitaji letu, haijalishi ni kubwa au ndogo kiasi gani. Tunamtumikia Mungu mkuu ambaye anaweza &quot;kuwajazia mahitaji yenu yote kwa kadiri ya utajiri wake katika utukufu ndani ya Kristo Yesu&quot; (Wafilipi 4:19).<\/p><p>Tunaishi katika ulimwengu usioridhika, na matangazo yote yanatuambia kwamba hatupaswi kuridhika pia. Lakini tunahitaji mtazamo wa Aguri, ambaye alitamani kuridhika na kile ambacho Bwana alitupatia.<\/p><p><strong>Nanga ya Leo<\/strong><br \/>Bwana awe lengo letu, na atusaidie kuridhika na baraka zake za kila siku kwetu.
