Haba la kylli ia U John Stott, “What do you considered to be the greatest problem in the church?” (Kaei kaba me niew ba ka long ka jingeh kaba khraw tam ha ka Balang?) U John Stott u la jubab u ong, “superficiality” (Ka jinglong ba tang na sla). Nga sngewiahap jingmut bad kaei kaba U John Stott u ong, ba ka jingleh mynleh ne ka jingleh kaba tang na sla ka long ka jingeh jong ka Balang bad jong ki bangeit ha kine ki sngi, bad kane ka don ka jingiasnoh bad ka jingainguh ne jingsngewnguh, teng teng ka jingainguh ka jong ngi ka la long tang na sla. U William Ward u ong, “God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say ‘thank you’?” (U Blei U la ai ia phi 86,400 second ha kane ka sngi. Hato phi la pyndonkam wat tang ia kawei ka second ban ong ‘nga ainguh ia Me?’).
Haba U Jisu U la pynkhiah ia ki 10 ngut kiba pang niangthohlieh, hooid ngim lah ban len ba ki don ka jingngeit bad kumta ki la kohnguh ia U Jisu wat haba U ong ia ki ba kin leit pyni sha ki lyngdoh, hooid ki don ka jingngeit bad namarba ki don ka jingngeit ki la khot ruh da ka sur kaba jam haba ki wan sha U Jisu (Loukas 17:13) ki ong, “Ko Jisu kynrad, to isynei ia ngi” ki la dei ban shah pynrem namar kane ruh, hynrei namar ka jingngeit kaba ki don kim shym la sheptieng wat ban pyrta ia U Jisu ba Un pynkhiah ia ki. U Jisu U la pynkhiah ia ki bad U la tynjuh ruh ia ka jingngeit jong ki, da kaba U shu phah beit ia ki sha ki lyngdoh, ha ka dkhot kaba 14 (Loukas 17:14) ngi iohi ia ka jingngeit jong ki, ba kata ka jingngeit ka la pynkhiah ruh ia ki katba ki dang ia leit ha kata ka lynti. Ka jingngeit kala treikam hadien ba ki la kohnguh ia ki kyntien U Jisu. Ngi lah ban sngewthuh haduh katno ka jingkmen jong kine kiba pang niangthohlieh ha kata ka por, namar kat kum kapor ba ki im, ka long kaba eh ia ki ban ia imlang bad ki para briew ryngkat bad une u khniang, baroh 10 ki la don ka jingngeit kaba pynphai ia ki sha U Blei, hynrei tang uwei na ki uba don ka jingngeit ka ban wan sha U Blei ryngkat bad ka jingainguh. Bad tang uwei u la wan phai bad u la dem ban ainguh ia U Jisu (Loukas 17:15) bad kaba sngewphylla ruh ba U Jisu U la iathuh ba uta uba wan phai ban ainguh ia u dei u nong Samaria (Loukas 17:16). Hangne ngi iohi biang ba U Jisu U kwah ban hikai ia ki Jiw khamtam eh ka jingniew bein jong ki ia ki Nong Samaria bad ba kim ju iakren bad ki ki don ka jingiashun. U Jisu lyngba kane ka jingjia U kwah ban hikai ia ki Jiw, ba kaba donkam eh ka dei ba ngin don ia ka mynsiem jong ka jingsngewnguh kam pher ngi dei kiei. U R. H. Blyth uba dei u nongthoh na England u ong, “There is no greater difference between men than between grateful and ungrateful people.” (Kam don ka jingiapher ka ban kham khraw hapdeng ki briew dei tang hapdeng u briew uba sngewnguh bad u bym sngewnguh). Ai namar kata kum kiba ngeit ngin long borabor ki briew kiba sngewnguh ia kiei kiei kiba U Blei Ula leh ha ka jingim ka jong ngi.
Jingduwai: - “Ah U Blei, Me long U Blei Uba la kyrkhu eh ia nga bad ia ka jingim ka jong nga, aibor ia nga ba ngan lah ban ainguh ia Me man ka sngi man ka khyllipmat jong ka jingim ka jong nga.” - Amen
