upendo wa binadamu na ndoa - asili na maana

1. utakuwa mpenzi wangu
wa kweli (Valentine)?

2. Mtakatifu Valentine - Mlinzi wa wanandoa.

3. Mtawala Claudius II "Goth" alikuwa mkatili sana,alitaka tu wanaume
wasio na waume kwa ajili ya jeshi lake, wasio na vifungo vya ndoa,
kupigania Ufalme wake popote walipopelekwa.

4. Valentine, Askofu wa Terni huko Umbria, Italia alitetea haki ya wanandoa kufunga
ndoana akawaoa kwa siri. Alikamatwa, akafungwa na kukatwa kichwa.

5. Upendo wa Kibinadamu
nimoja ya zawadi kubwaya
Mungu kwa wanadamu.
Biblia inatuambiabaadhi
ya siri zakekatika -
Mwanzo 2,18
Ndipo BWANA
akasema,"Sio
nzurikwamba mwanaume
anapaswakuwa peke
yako;nitamfanyia
msaidizikama
mshirika wake."

6. Kwa hiyo BWANA Mungu akafanyiza kutoka katika ardhi kila mnyamawa porini
na kila ndege wa angani, akamletea huyo mtu aoneangewaitaje; na kila kiumbe
kilicho hai mwanadamu alikiita;hilo lilikuwa jina lake. Adamu akawapa majina
wanyama wote wa kufugwa, na ndege wa angani, na kwakila mnyama wa kondeni;
lakini kwa mtu huyo hakuonekana msaidizi kama mwenza wake.

7. Basi Bwana Mungu akamletea huyo mtu usingizi mzito, naye akalala;kisha akachukua
ubavu wake mmoja na kupafunika mahali pake kwa nyama.Na ule ubavu alioutwaa
BWANA Mungu kwa Adamuakamfanya mwanamke na kumleta kwa mwanamume.

8. Ndipo yule mtu akasema, “Mwishowe huyu ni mfupa wa
mifupa yanguna nyama katika nyama yangu; huyu ataitwa
Mwanamke,kwa maana huyu alitolewa kutoka kwa Mwanadamu."

9. Kwa hiyo mtu huwaacha baba yake na mama yakena
kushikamana na mkewe, nao watakuwa mwili mmoja.

10. Yesu Kristo alibariki upendo na ndoa ya
wanandoa -alipoenda arusini Kana.Alibadilisha
maji kuwa divai nyingi kwa sikukuu.

11. Kristo Bwana alibariki sana upendo huu wenye sura nyingi, ikibubujika
kutoka kwenye chemchemi ya upendo wa kimunguna kuundwa kwa
kielelezo cha muungano wake na Kanisa ziwa.

12. Anakaa nao baada ya hapo ili kama vile alivyolipenda Kanisana kujitoa
kwa niaba yake, wenzi wa ndoa wanaweza kupendakila mmoja kwa
uaminifu wa daima kwa njia ya kujitolea wenyewe kwa wenyewe.

13. Upendo wa kweli wa ndoa
hunaswa ndani ya upendo wa
kiungu na hutawaliwa na
kutajirikakwa uwezo wa
Kristo wa ukombozi na
shughuli ya kuokoawa
Kanisa,ili upendo huu uweze
kuongozawanandoa kwa
Mungu kwa athari yenye
nguvu na inawezakuwasaidia
na kuwaimarisha katika
ofisi tukufu ya kuwa baba
au mama.

14. Kwa sababu hii wanandoa Wakristo wana sakramenti maalum ambayo
kwayo wanaimarishwana kupokea aina ya wakfu katika majukumu na
heshima ya nchi yao.Kwa nguvu ya sakramenti hii, kama wanandoa
wanatimiza wajibu wao wa ndoa na familia,wanapenyezwa na roho ya Kristo,
ambayo inatoshamaisha yao yote kwa imani, matumaini na mapendo.

15. Hivyo wanazidi kuendeleza ukamilifu wa haiba zao wenyewe,
pamoja na kutakaswa kwao pamoja, na hivyo kuchangia
kwa pamojakwa utukufu wa Mungu. Gaudium et Spes 48

16. Ninyi ni nuru ya ulimwengu. Mji uliojengwa juu ya mlima hauwezi kufichwa.Wala watu
hawawashi taa na kuiweka chini ya bakuli. Badala yake waliiweka juu ya kinara chake,nayo
huwatia nuru watu wote waliomo nyumbani. Vivyo hivyo nuru yenu na iangaze mbele ya
watu;wapate kuyaona matendo yenu mema, wamtukuze Baba yenu aliye mbinguni.. Mt 5,14 -16
Ushuhuda wa
wanandoa
waaminifu

17. Enyi waume, wapendeni wake zenu, kama Kristo naye alivyolipenda Kanisa, akajitoa
kwa ajili yake.Vivyo hivyo waume wanapaswa kuwapenda wake zao kama miili yao
wenyewe.Anayempenda mke wake anajipenda mwenyewe. Maana hakuna mtu
anayeuchukia mwili wake milele.bali hulilisha na kulitunza, kama Kristo
anavyolitunza kanisa; kwa sababu sisi tu viungo vya mwili wake. Waefeso 5:25-

18. Mwanamume na mwanamke, walioumbwa kama umoja wa watu wawili, katika ubinadamu
wao wa kawaida, wameitwa kuishikatika ushirika wa upendo. Na hivyo kutafakari katika
ulimwengu kwamba jumuiya ya upendo tunapata kwa Mungu,ambayo nafsi hizo tatu
zinapendana katika fumbo la ndani la maisha ya pekee ya kimungu.

19. Itikadi ya jinsia, hupunguza siri ya ujinsia
wa binadamukwa jambo la kitamaduni tu,
ambayo hutumia kama msingi waketabia
ya ngono isiyo na tofauti.

20. Mtazamo huu wa kiitikadi unakatisha tamaa
kuhusiana na uwezo wa mwanaume na mwanamke
kuishi maisha ya ndoa ya ndoa kama watu.

21. Jumla ya kujitoa kimwili kungekuwa uongo kama si isharana
matunda ya kujitoa kikamilifu binafsi, ambapo mtu mzima, ikiwa
ni pamoja na mwelekeo wa muda, upo:; Familiaris Consortio 11

22. Ndoa basi, ni mbali
na kuwaathari ya
bahatiau matokeo
yamageuzi ya
kipofuya nguvu za
asili. Ni katika hali
halisiwenye hekima
na rizikitaasisi ya
Mungu Muumba,
ambaye kusudi lake
lilikuwa kuleta
athari kwa
mwanadamu Ubunifu
wake wa upendo.

23. Kama matokeo, mume na mke, kupitia zawadi hiyo ya wao wenyewe,ambayo ni
mahususi na ya kipekee kwao peke yao, kuendeleza muungano huo wa watu
wawiliambamo wanakamilishana wao kwa wao, wakishirikiana na Mungu katika
kizazina kulea maisha mapya. HUMANAE VITAE 8

24. Ndoa ya walio nayo
kubatizwa ni kwa
kuongeza,
kuwekeza nahadhi
ya sakramenti
ishara ya neema,
kwa maana
inawakilisha
muungano wa
Kristo na
Kanisa Lake.

25. Upendo huu ni
juu ya yote
binadamu
kamili, kiwanja
cha akili na
roho. Sio, basi,
swali tuya silika
ya asiliau
msukumo wa
kihisia. Pia ni,
na zaidi ya yote,
kitendo cha
hiari

26. haimaanishi tu kuishi furaha na huzuni za maisha ya kila siku,lakini
pia kukua, ili mume na mke wawe katika njiamoyo mmoja na nafsi
moja, na kwa pamoja kufikia utimilifu wao wa kibinadamu. HV 9

27. Ni upendo ambao ni JUMLA—ile aina ya pekee sana ya urafiki wa kibinafs iambamo
mume na mke hushiriki kila kitu kwa ukarimu, bila kuruhusu ubaguzi usio na sababuna
si kufikiria tu ya manufaa yao wenyewe. Yeyote anayempenda mpenzi wake kweli
hupenda si kwa kile anachopokea tu, bali humpenda mwenzi huyo kwa ajili ya mwenzake.
kutosheka kuweza kumtajirisha mwingine kwa karama yake mwenyewe. HV 9

28. Upendo wa ndoa ni pia
mwaminifu na
isipokuwa mengine
yote, na hii hadi kufa.
Hivi ndivyo mumena
mke alielewa siku
ambayo, kufahamu
kabisa niniwalikuwa
kwa hiari kwa mmoja
mwingine katika ndoa.
Ingawa uaminifu huu
ya mume na mke
wakati mwingine
husababisha shida,
hakuna aliye nayo haki
ya kudai kwamba
haiwezekani;ni
kinyume chake, daima
kuheshimiwa na sifa
inayostahili.

29. Mfano wa wanandoa wengi waliooana unathibitisha sio tu
kwamba uaminifu unapatana na asili ya ndoa, lakini pia
kwamba ni chanzo cha furaha ya kina na ya kudumu. HV 9

30. Hatimaye, upendo huu unazaa
matundaHaijafungwa kabisa
kwamwingiliano wa upendo wa
mume na mke; pia inakusudia
kwenda zaidi ya haya ili kuleta
maisha mapya

31. "Ndoa na upendo wa kindoa kwa asili yao umewekwa kwa ajili ya uzazi
na malezi ya watoto. Watoto kwa hakika ndio zawadi kuu ya ndoa na
huchangia kwa kiwango cha juu zaidi kwa ustawi wa wazazi wao." HV 9

32. Wanandoa waishi kwa muda mrefu,
ukamilishano wao, upendo wao! Ashukuriwe
Bwana kwa zawadi hii na wito wa kupenda.

33. SOME LOVE SONGS
The first time ever I saw your face
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars
were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies,
my love
To the night and the empty skies
The first time ever
I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling
heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command,
my love
That was there at my command
The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart
beat close to mine
I thought our joy
would fill the earth
And last….
Song by Robert Flack

34. 'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves
and all your edges
All your perfect
imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end
and my beginning
Even when I lose
I'm winning
'Cause I give you
all of me
And you give me
all of you,
Lyrics of “All of me”
by John Legend

35. Where do I begin
To tell the story
Of how great a love can be
The sweet love story
That is older than the sea
The simple truth about the
love she brings to me
Where do I start
With her first hello
She gave new meaning
To this empty world of mine
There'll never be
Another love, another time
She came into my life
And made the living fine
She fills my heart
She fills my heart
With very special things
With angel songs
With wild imaginings
She fills my soul
With so much love
That anywhere I go
I'm never lonely
With her along who
could be lonely
I reach for her hand
It's always there
How long does it last
Can love be measured by
the hours in a day
I have no answers now
But this much I can say
I know I'll need her 'till
the stars all burn away
And she'll be there
How long does it last
Can love be measured by
the hours in a day
I have no answers now
But this much I can say
I know I'll need her
'till the stars all
burn away
And she'll be there

36. ¿Will you be my Valentine? – guide or index
•Saint Valentín –
Patron of lovers
Emperor Claudio II "the Goth" was so cruel that he only wanted single men among his troops,
but only those who were free of marriage obligations, to defend the Roman empire
Valentine, the bishop of Terni in Umbría defended the marriages of the couples
And married them secretly. He was jailed and decapitated
•Human love is one of the greatest gifts of God to man and woman
Génesis 2,18 – God said:
«It’s not good for man to be alone.
I’ll make him an adecuate helpmate».
And so Yahveh formed from the earth all the animals of the fields
and all the birds of the air and brought them to man to have him name them
The man put names on all the cattel and birds of the air and all the wild animals
Yet he didn’t find an adecuate helpmate
Then Yahveh sent a profound sleep on manand he slept
And he took one of his ribs and filled the cleft with flesh
He formed woman from the rib he had taken and he brought her to man
He then exclaimed “now this is bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh.
She’ll be called woman, because she’s been taken from man”
“Therefore man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and they sahall be one flesh.”
•Christ the Lord abundantly blessed this many-faceted love,
welling up as it does from the fountain of divine love
and structured as it is on the model of His union with His Church.
For as God of old made Himself present to His people through a covenant of love and fidelity,
so now the Savior of men and the Spouse of the Church
comes into the lives of married Christians through the sacrament of matrimony.
He abides with them thereafter
so that just as He loved the Church and handed Himself over on her behalf,
the spouses may love each other with perpetual fidelity through mutual self-bestowal.
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand,
and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others,
that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. - Mt 5,14 -16
•Saint Paul says
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26
to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27
and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish,
but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies.
He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body,
but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church Efesios 5,22-

37. Man and woman, created as a unity of two in a common humanity,
are called to live in a community of love
and thus reflect in the world the community of love that is in God
by which the three Persons love each other
in the intímate mystery of the one divine life
•Gender Ideology reduces the mystery of human sexualtiy to a mere cultural matter
as a base for the undiferentiated options of sexual behaviour
this ideological visión goes with a lack of confidence in the ability of man and woman
 to live forever as a personal community in a conjugal form,
which should respect the essential charateristics of unity and indisolubility
•Matrimony as a natural institution
This total physical self giving would be a scam
if it were not a sign and fruit of the donation of the whole person
 including his temporal dimensión FC 11
Matrimony is not a casual result or product of the evolution of unconscious natural forces
Its a wise institution of the Creator to achieve in humanity His plan of love.
The spouses, by their reciprocal personal self giving, proper and exclusive to them,
strive toward the unión of their beings to help perfect teach other,
to collaboratye with God in the generation and educaton of new lives. Humanae Vitae
•For baptised persons Matrimony is moreover a sacrament of grace, since they represent the unión of Christ with the Church
destined to hold and grow through the joys and sorrows of daily life,
so that the spouses become one sole heatr and one sole soul and together reach human perfection
•The QUALITIESof LOVE
It is TOTAL, that is, a unique form of personal friendship
By which the spouses share all generously without undue reservations or selfish calculations.
Whoever loves a spouse, does not do so for selfish gain,
 but for their own sake, glad to enrich with the gift of self
It is FAITHFUL
and EXCLUSIVEO until death
that’s how the spouses perceive the endeavour of the marriage bond
on the day they FREELY and fully AWARE accept it
Faithfulness can at times be difficult, but is always posible, noble, and meritorious
the example of many spouses down the ages shows
 that fidelity is not only connatural to matrimony
but also a spring of profound and lasting happiness
It is FRUITFUL
This not only means the fruitfulness of their love
But is destined to extend itself in procreating new lives
" matrimony and conjugal love are ordered by their very nature
 to the procreation and education of the prole.
The children are the best gift of marriage
And contribute to the good of their parents
•Long live “le difference,” Long live the couple and their love Thanks be to Lord for the dift of love in this human vocation
