Ko Te Poto ʼo Te ʼAtua ʼe Hā ʼi Tana Fakatupu

“ ʼE ko ia ʼaē ʼe ina akoʼi tātou ʼo laka age ʼi te faga manu ʼo te kele, pea ʼe ina fakaliliu ia tātou ke tou popoto age ʼi te faga manulele ʼo te lagi.”—SOPO 35:11.

KO TE faga manulele ʼe natou maʼu ia tonatou ʼu fealagia fakapunamaʼuli. Ko te hahaʼi ʼaē ʼe natou faʼu ia te ʼu vakalele ʼe natou leleiʼia ia te ʼu faʼahiga feʼaluʼaki kehekehe ʼa te ʼu manulele. Ko ʼihi faʼahiga manulele ʼe natou fefolauʼaki ʼi he ʼu lauʼi afe kilometa ʼi te fuga tai kae ʼe mole faigataʼa ia tanatou kaku ki te koga meʼa ʼaē neʼe tonu ke natou ʼolo kiai.

Ko te tahi fealagia makehe ʼo te faga manulele—ko he tahi ʼaia fealagia ʼe hā ʼaki ai te poto ʼo te Tupuʼaga—tonatou fealagia ʼi te felōgoi ʼaki he ʼu tagi. Tou vakaʼi age he ʼu faʼifaʼitaki.

Te Faʼahiga Felōgoi ʼa Te Faga Manulele

Ko ʼihi faʼahiga manulele ʼe natou kamata felōgoi māʼiapē lā ʼi muʼa ʼo tonatou foafoaʼi. Ohagē foki lā, ko te kiʼi manulele fafine ʼaē ko te caille, ʼe ina fakatō tona ʼu fuaʼi moa e valu, ʼe lau pē ko te fuaʼi moa e tahi ʼi te ʼaho. Kapau ʼe tuputupu lelei ia te ʼu fuaʼi moa fuli, ʼe feala anai ke foafoaʼi ia te ʼu fuaʼi moa ʼi te valu ʼaho. ʼI te agamāhani ʼe taʼotaʼo e te ʼu matuʼa moa ia tanatou ʼu fuaʼi moa ʼo kaku pē ki te foafoaʼi fuli ʼo te ʼu fuaʼi moa. Kae, ko te ʼu ʼuhiʼi caille ʼe natou tahi foafoaʼi pē anai iā hola e ono. ʼE hoko feafeaʼi te faʼahi ʼaia? ʼE ʼui e te hahaʼi fai kumi, ko te ʼu embryon ʼo te ʼu caille ʼe fefakafelōgoiʼaki ʼi te temi ʼaē ʼe kei nonofo ai ʼi te loto fuaʼi moa, pea ʼe natou fakatuʼutuʼu ke natou foafoaʼi te gaʼasi fuaʼi moa ʼi te temi e tahi.

ʼI te temi ʼaē kua lahi ai ia te manulele, ʼi te agamāhani ʼe tagi ia te manulele tagata. ʼE tagi tāfito ʼi te temi ʼaē ʼe taka tau ai, ʼe ina fakaʼiloga tona telituale peʼe taka tau. ʼI te ʼu lauʼi afe manulele takitahi ʼe natou tahi ʼalu pē ʼi tona faʼahiga tagi, pea ʼe feala ai ki te faga manulele fafine ke natou ʼiloʼi ia te faga manulele tagata ʼo tona faʼahiga.

Ko te faga manulele ʼe tagi tāfito ʼi te kei hegihegi pea mo te tō ʼo te laʼā, pea ʼe ʼi ai te tupuʼaga tāfito ʼo tanatou fai ia te faʼahi ʼaia. ʼE mole faʼa matagi pea ʼe siʼisiʼi tona logoaʼa ʼi te ʼu temi ʼaia. Neʼe maʼu e te ʼu kumi, ko te tagi ʼo te faga manulele ʼe tuʼa 20 age tona lelei ʼi te ʼuhu pea mo te afiafi, ʼi hanatou tagi ʼi te hoʼatā.

Logopē lā ʼi te agamāhani ko te manulele tagata ʼaē ʼe lahi age tana tagi, kae ko te manulele tagata pea mo ʼaē ʼe fafine ʼe lahi tanā faʼahiga tagi kehekehe, ʼo nā ʼiloʼi ia te fakaʼuhiga ʼo tanā faʼahiga tagi. Ohagē lā ko te kiʼi manulele ʼaē ko te pinson, ko ʼana faʼahiga tagi e hiva. ʼE ʼi ai tanatou faʼahiga tagi moʼo fakatokaga ʼe ʼi ai te tuʼutāmaki ʼi te ʼaele—ohagē ko he manulele ʼe ina kumi hana meʼa kai—kae ʼe ʼi ai mo tanatou tahi ʼu faʼahiga tagi mo fakatokaga ʼe ʼi ai te tuʼutāmaki ʼe fakaovi mai ʼe haʼu mai te kele.

 Ko He Mōlaga Maʼuhiga

Ko te poto ʼaē neʼe ʼai e Sehova ki te faga manulele ʼe mahino ia ʼe fakaofoofo. Kae kā tou palalau leva ʼo ʼuhiga mo te fealagia ʼo te felōgoi, ʼe toe fakaofoofo ʼaupitō age ia te tagata. Neʼe faʼu e te ʼAtua ia te tagata ‘ke poto age ʼi te ʼu manulele ʼo te lagi,’ ohagē ko tona ʼui iā Sopo 35:11. ʼE makehe ia te poto ʼo te tagata ʼi tana lava fakamahino he ʼu manatu faigataʼa ʼo tona ʼatamai pea mo tana ʼu manatu ʼo ina fakaʼaogaʼi tona leʼo peʼe ʼaki tana palalau ʼaki tona ʼu nima.

ʼE mole tatau mo ʼihi fakatupu, ko te kiʼi tamasiʼi neʼe tupu mo te fealagia ʼaē ke ina akoʼi he ʼu lea ʼe faigataʼa. ʼE ʼui fēnei ʼi te sulunale American Scientist: “ ʼE feala ki te kiʼi toe ʼaē ʼe kei meamea ke ina akoʼi he lea tatau aipē peʼe mole palalau fakahagatonu age ki ai ia tana ʼu mātuʼa; ko te ʼu fānau ʼaē ʼe tuli ʼe natou faiga anai ke natou faʼufaʼu ia hanatou faʼahiga lea ʼaki ʼonatou nima mo kapau ʼe mole akoʼi age kiā nātou ʼi fale ia te lea ʼaki ʼonatou nima.”

Ko te fealagia ʼaē ko te felōgoi ʼo tatatou fakahā ia tatatou ʼu manatu pea mo te ʼu meʼa ʼaē ʼe tou logoʼi peʼe ʼaki te lea fakatuli ʼe ko he fakamoʼoni ʼaia ʼe ko he meʼa ʼofa fakatalakitupua mai te ʼAtua. Kae ʼe ʼi ai te tahi meʼa ʼofa ʼe lahi age ʼaē neʼe foaki ki te tagata ʼaē ko te fealagia ʼi te felōgoi mo te ʼAtua ʼaki ia te faikole. ʼI tona fakahagatonu, ʼe fakaafe tātou e Sehova ʼAtua ke tou palalau age kiā te ia. ʼE ʼui fēnei ʼi te Folafola ʼa te ʼAtua, ia te Tohi-Tapu: “ ʼAua naʼa kotou tuʼania ki he meʼa, kae ʼi te faʼahi fuli, ʼaki te faikole pea mo te ʼu kole mamahi ʼaki te fakafetaʼi, kotou fakahā ki te ʼAtua takotou ʼu kole.”—Filipe 4:6.

Kā tou tau mo he ʼu tonu faigataʼa, ʼe loto e Sehova ke tou fakaʼaogaʼi ia te tānakiʼaga lahi ʼo te poto ʼaē ʼe maʼu ʼi te Tohi-Tapu. ʼE toe tokoni mai anai kiā tātou ke tou ʼiloʼi peʼe feafeaʼi ia te maʼuliʼi ʼo te tokoni ʼaē ʼe tou maʼu ai. Neʼe ʼui fēnei e te tagata faitohi Fakatohi-tapu ko Sake: “Kapau ʼe iā koutou he tahi ʼe mole ina maʼu te poto, ke ina haga kole ki te ʼAtua, heʼe ina foaki ki te hahaʼi fuli ʼaki te manavaʼofa pea ʼe mole ina lau ia; pea ʼe ina foaki age anai kiā te ia.”—Sake 1:5.

ʼE Malave Feafeaʼi Kiā Koutou?

ʼE malave feafeaʼi kiā koutou mokā kotou logo ki he tagi mālie ʼa he manulele peʼe ki he kiʼi tamasiʼi ʼe ina akoako he ʼu ʼuluaki palalau? ʼE kotou tokagaʼi koa ia te poto ʼo te ʼAtua ʼi te ʼu meʼa ʼaē neʼe ina fai?

ʼI te hili ʼo te metitāsio ʼa te tagata fai pesalemo ko Tavite ki tona faʼahiga faʼu, neʼe uga ai ia ia ke ina ʼui fēnei ki te ʼAtua: “ ʼE au vikiviki anai kiā te koe, heʼe fakamanavahē pea mo fakaofoofo toku faʼu. ʼE fakatalakitupua tau ʼu gāue, pea ʼe mahino lelei kiā te au te meʼa ʼaia.” (Pesalemo 139:14) ʼI takotou vakavakaʼi fakalelei ia te poto ʼo te ʼAtua ʼaē ʼe hā ʼi tana fakatupu, ʼe mahino ia ko takotou tui ʼaē ki tona fealagia ke ina foaki atu ia tana takitaki lelei ʼe tuputupu moʼoni anai.
