Ha ka jingthoh kaba la ai kyrteng “How to Be Thankful in All Things” (Kumno ba ngin long kiba ainguh ha kiei kiei baroh), U Billy Graham u thoh kumne, “Ingratitude is a sin, just as surely as is lying or stealing or immorality or any other sin condemned by the Bible.” (Ka jingbym sngewnguh ka dei ka pop, kumjuh hi kum kaba thok ne kaba tuh ne kaba im awria bad kiwei kiwei de ki pop kiba la pynrem ha ka bible). U Billy Graham u shim sa na ka Bible na ka shithi sha ki Nong Rom, (Rom 1:21) ki kyntien kiba ong kumne, “Namar haba ki la tip ia U Blei, kim shym la pyndon burom ia U kum U Blei, lymne kim shym la ainguh: hynrei ki la man thala noh ha ki jingpyrkhat jong ki kumta la pynsynnia tiaw ia ka dohnud bieit jong ki.” Nangta u thoh shuh shuh, “Nothing turns us into bitter, selfish, dissatisfied people more quickly than an ungrateful heart. And nothing will do more to restore contentment and the joy of our salvation than a true spirit of thankfulness.” (Ym don kaba lah ban pynkylla kloi ia ngi ban pynlong ia ngi kiba dom, kiba hangamei, ki briew ki bym hun ha kaei kaei ban ia ka dohnud ka bym sngewnguh. Bad ym don kaba kham palat ban wanrah kloi ia ka mynsiem kaba suk bad ka jingkmen jong ka jingpynim ban ia ka mynsiem kaba ainguh bad sngewnguh). Kynmaw haba ngi long ki bym sngewnguh ngi leh pop, bad kata ka mynsiem ka bym sngewnguh kan ialam ia ngi sha ka jingim kaba thala, kaba ha nga mei, hynrei haba ngi nang ban sngewnguh ha kiei kiei dei hangta ba ngin ioh ia ka jinghun ha ka mynsiem.

Jingduwai: - “Ah U Blei, weng na nga ia ka mynsiem jong ka jingbym sngewnguh, bad ai hapoh jong nga ia ka jinglong ban sngewnguh ia Me ha ki por bad jingjia baroh.” - Amen

Ki la don ki snem kiba ha ka shi snem u la pynlong ia ki jinglehniam ha kaba leit on tep ia kiba iap haduh 4000 sien, kaba kynthup ia ka jinglehniam kaba u hap ban pyniaid hi na ka bynta ka jingkhlad ka lok ka jong u. Ha kata ka por, ka bam ka kyrduh haduh katta katta, ki la don ki sngi ba ma u bad ka iing ki hap ban shah thngan. Ula mad bad ia kynduh shisha ia ki jingeh kiba khraw, hynrei wat hapdeng kita ki jingeh, u iaineh skhem ha ka jingngeit ka jong U ha U Blei bad u iai im ka jingim kaba iai ainguh ia U Blei wat hapdeng ki jingeh, bad kata ka mynsiem jong ka jingsngewnguh ka jong u ka la pynlong ia u ba un thaw ia ka jingrwai kaba u la ai kyrteng ha ka ktien German, “Nun danket alle Gott,”  bad ka dei kawei na ki jingrwai ba pawnam, ia kaba la la pynkylla sha ka ktien English, “Now Thank We All Our God.”

U Rinkart u bud ia ka nuksa ka jong U Isaiah uba la btah ia ki Khun Israel ba ki dei ban ainguh ia U Blei ha ki por baroh, watla ki mad ia ki jingeh bad ia ka jingbitar ka jong U Blei (Isaiah 12:1), kin ainguh ia U Blei watla ki nongshun ki wan ban banbein ia ki. Wat hapdeng kita ki jingeh ki dei ban iai pynbna ia ka kyrteng ka jong U Trai sha ki kynja bynriew baroh (Isaiah 12:4). Ka long kaba suk ia ngi ba ngin ainguh ia U Blei haba ngi iohpdiang ia ki jingkyrkhu bad haba ngi lait na ki jingeh, Hynrei U Isaiah ha kane ka kitab ka jong u (Isaiah 12) u khot ia ki Khun Israel ban ainguh wat hapdeng ki jingeh. U Isaiah u ong shuh shuh ia ki khun Israel (Isaiah 12:5) “To rwai ia U Trai; namar U la leh ia kiei kiei kiba bha tam; to pynbna ia kane ha ka khyndew baroh.” Ai namar kata ba wat hapdeng ki jingeh ba ngi la iaid lyngba ha une u snem 2020 pynban haba ngi rung sha une u snem uba thymmai to ngin rung ryngkat bad ka jingainguh ia U Blei, bad ngin iai pynbna ruh ia ka kyrteng jong U hapdeng ki kynja bynriew baroh.

“Ka long kaba bha ban ainguh ia U Trai, bad ban rwai ki jingiaroh ia ka kyrteng jong Me, Ah U Bahakhlieh tam eh.” (Salm 92:1)

**************************************

Ka phang ia kaba ngin ia peit ha kane ka taiew (4th – 10th January 2021) ka long, “Ka Jingainguh” (Thanksgiving). Kane ka taiew ka long ka taiew kaba nyngkong jong u snem 2021, bad haba ngi phaidien sha u snem uba rim, u snem 2020 wat hapdeng ki jingeh kiba bun, hynrei ka dei ia ngi ba ngin ai ka jingainguh sha U Blei namar kiei kiei kiba U la leh ha ka jingim ka jong ngi.

Haba ngi dei ban iaid lyngba ki jingeh, kam long kaba suk ia ngi ba ngin ioh ia ka mynsiem ban sngewnguh ne ban ainguh. Hooid, wat hapdeng ki jingeh bad ki jingsheptieng ngi don hi ka daw ban ainguh ia U Blei, ngin ainguh ia U namar ki kular ki jong U bad namar ka jingbha bad ka jingisnei ka jong U. Ki don shibun ki briew kiba shem bad lap ba hapdeng ki jingeh haba ngi nang ban ainguh ia U Blei ka don kaei kaei ka ban pynkylla ia ka jingim ka jong ngi na ka jingsngewsih sha ka jingkmen wat hapdeng kita ki jingeh.

U Henry W. Frost, u missionary uba la trei slem bha sha China, u lap hi dalade ba haba ngi nang ban ainguh ia U Blei hapdeng ki jingeh ngin mad shisha ia ka jingsuk bad ha ki kyntien ki jong u, u ong, “I had received sad news from home, and deep shadows had covered my soul. I prayed, but the darkness did not vanish. I summoned myself to endure, but the darkness only deepened. Then I went to an inland station and saw on the wall of the mission home these words: Try Thanksgiving. I did, and in a moment every shadow was gone, not to return. Yes, the psalmist was right. ‘It is good to give thanks to the Lord.'” (Nga la ioh pdiang ia ka khubor kaba sngewsih na iing, bad ka syrngiew ba jylliew ka la tap ia ka mynsiem ka jong nga. Nga la duwai, hynrei kata ka jingdum kam shim la kynriah. Nga pynshlur ialade ba nga lah ban iaishah, hynrei kata ka jingdum ka nang kham jylliew. Kumta nga la leit sha ka iing mission (Inland Station) bad ha ka kynroh hangta ha ka iing mission nga la iohi ia kine ki kyntien: Pyrshang ia ka jingainguh. Nga la leh kumta, bad ha ka shikhyllipmat ka syrngiew kaba kah dum ia nga ka la jah noh, bad ka khlem wan phai shuh. Hooid, U Nongrwai Salm u ong ia kaba dei. ‘Ka long kaba bha ban ainguh ia U Trai’)

Lehse phi lah ban mad ha une u snem uba la leit noh ia ka syrngiew jong ki jingeh kiba la ban khia ia phi, lehse ka long ba mynta ruh phi dang ialeh ban lait na kata ka jingkah dum kaba kah dum ia ka jingim ka jong phi, pyrshang ban ainguh ia U Blei ryngkat bad kita ki jingeh, nga ngeit ba phin ioh mad ia ka jingsuk wat hapdeng ki jingeh ba phi dei ban iaid lyngba.

Jingduwai: - “Ah U Blei, ai hapoh jong nga ia ka mynsiem jong ka jingsngewnguh ba nga lah ban ainguh ia Me wat hapdeng ki jingeh kiba nga dei ban iaid lyngba.” - Amen
