Fakatokanga‘i ange: ʻOku lahi e faikehekehe lahi e tuʻunga ʻo e tauʻatāina fakalotú ʻi he funga ʻo e māmaní. ʻI hoʻomou aleaʻi e tauʻatāina fakalotú, mātuʻaki tokanga ki he ngaahi tūkunga makehe ʻi he feituʻu ʻokú ke nofo aí. Poupouʻi e kau akó ke nau lea fakaʻapaʻapa ki he puleʻangá, ngaahi siasi kehé, mo e ngaahi tukufakaholo fakalotu kotoa pē.

Fakamanatu ki he kau akó ʻi heʻenau teuteu ki he kalasí, naʻe fakaafeʻi kinautolu ke fepōtalanoaʻaki mo ha taha pe kakai tokolahi ange ʻo ha tui fakalotu kehe. Naʻe poupouʻi e kau akó ke ʻeke ki he niʻihi fakafoʻituitui ko ʻení e ʻuhinga ʻoku mahuʻinga ai kiate kinautolu ʻenau tui fakalotú pea kuo nau ʻosi foua nai hano fakatangaʻi ʻenau tui fakalotú .

Fakakaukau ke ke fai ha fehuʻi ʻe taha pe lahi ange mei he ngaahi fehuʻí ni:

• ʻE uesia fēfē ʻetau moʻuí kapau naʻe ʻikai ke tau maʻu ʻa e tauʻatāina ke fakahaaʻi pe ngāue ʻo fakatatau mo ʻetau ngaahi tefitoʻi tuí, ʻo kau ai ʻetau ngaahi fakakaukau ki he tui fakalotú? Ko e hā ha ngaahi sīpinga ʻe niʻihi ʻo e tui fakalotú ʻoku fakamanamanaʻi ʻi hotau kuongá ni?

Fakamanatu ki he kau akó naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe he Tuʻi ko Mōsaiá ha fono ke maluʻi e kakai ʻo hono puleʻangá naʻe fakatangaʻi koeʻuhi ko ʻenau tuí. Mahalo te ke toe vakaiʻi ʻa e Mōsaia 27:1–4 mo e kau akó pea fehuʻi ange:

Fakakaukau ke fakaʻaliʻali ʻa e fakatātā ko ʻení, pea fakaafeʻi ha kau ako ke nau fakanounouʻi ha niʻihi ʻo e ngaahi fakakaukau naʻe akoʻi ʻe Koliholá (vakai, konga 1 ʻo e naunau teuteú). Fakaafe‘i e kau akó ke nau toe vakaiʻi ‘Alamā 30:7–9, 11 pea sio ki he meʻa ʻoku akoʻi ʻe he ngaahi veesi ko ʻení kau ki he tauʻatāina fakalotú. Fakakaukau pe ko fē ʻi he ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení te ke lava ʻo ʻeke te ne tokoniʻi lahi taha hoʻo kau akó ke nau ako lahi ange:

(Mahalo ‘e ʻiloʻi ʻe he kau akó ha tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻoku tatau mo e ngaahi meʻá ni: ʻOku finangalo e ʻOtuá ke maʻu ʻe Heʻene fānaú kotoa e ngaahi totonu mo e faingamālie tatau koeʻuhi ke nau tauʻatāina ke fili ke tauhi kiate Ia ʻo ʻikai fakakounaʻi, pea maʻu mo e tauʻatāina ke ʻoua naʻa tauhi kiate Ia.)

ʻOku hiki hake ʻe he ʻEikitau ko Molonaí e fuka ʻo e tauʻatāiná mo uki e kakaí ke fakatolonga e tauʻatāiná.

Fakaafe‘i ha kau ako tokosiʻi ke nau vahevahe ha ngaahi sīpinga ʻo e founga ʻe lava ke fakamanamanaʻi ai e tauʻatāina fakalotú. (Kapau ʻe fie maʻu, te ke lava ʻo kole ke nau toe vakaiʻi e konga 2 ʻo e naunau teuteú.)

Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke nau lau e ‘Alamā 46:4, 10, pea fakamatalaʻi e anga hono fakamanamanaʻi ʻe ʻAmalekaia e tauʻatāina ʻa e kau Nīfaí, ʻo kau ai ʻenau tauʻatāina fakalotú. ʻEke ki he kau akó pe ko e hā e founga ne tali mai ai ʻe he ʻEikitau ko Molonaí ʻa e fakamanamana ko ʻení. (Kapau ‘e fie maʻu, kole ki he kau akó ke toe vakaiʻi e ʻAlamā 46:12–13, 19–20.) Fakakaukau ke aleaʻi e ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení:

(Tokoniʻi e kau akó ke nau ʻiloʻi ha tefitoʻi moʻoni tatau mo e ngaahi meʻá ni: ‘I he taimi ʻoku tau ui ai ki he ʻOtuá mo teuteuʻi kitautolu ke ngāué, te Ne fakamālohia kitautolu ʻaki hono maluʻi hotau ngaahi fāmilí, ʻetau tui fakalotú, mo ʻetau tauʻatāiná.)

Ke tokoni ki he kau akó ke fakakaukau ki he anga ʻo e anga fakaʻapaʻapá he taimi ʻoku taukapoʻi ai e tauʻatāina fakalotú, mahalo te ke fakaʻaliʻali e lea ʻa Palesiteni Tāleni H. ʻOakesi ʻo e Kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí:

ʻOku totonu ke tau ʻofa ʻi he kakai kotoa pē, fakafanongo lelei, pea fakahaaʻi ha loto tokanga ki he meʻa ʻoku nau tui fakamātoato ki aí. ʻOku totonu ke tau fakapotopoto ʻi hono fakamatalaʻi mo taukapoʻi hotau tuʻungá mo tākiekina e niʻihi kehé. ‘Oku totonu ke tau fekumi ki he mahino mo e poupou ʻa e kau ta‘e tuí.

Ke tokoni ki he kau akó ke nau ako ki hono maluʻi ʻo e taʻuʻatāina fakalotú, fakaafeʻi ke nau ngāue mo hano hoa pea aleaʻi e founga te nau tali ʻaki e tūkunga ko ʻení:

Ko Hono Fakatupulaki ʻEtau Founga Akoʻí mo e Akó

Fakaafe‘i e kau akó ke nau fokotuʻu ha ngaahi taumuʻa. Naʻe pehē ʻe Palesiteni M. Lāsolo Pālati ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá, “‘Oku ou ʻilo fakapapau kapau he ʻikai ke tau fokotu‘u ha ngaahi taumuʻa ʻi heʻetau moʻuí pea tau ako ke tau poto ʻi he ngaahi founga moʻui te tau lava ʻo aʻusia ai ʻetau ngaahi taumuʻá, ʻo ka tau toulekeleka pea tau vakai mai ki mui ki he anga ʻo ʻetau moʻuí ʻo ʻilo ai ta ko e konga siʻi pē ʻo e meʻa naʻa tau mei lava ke fakahokó naʻa tau aʻusiá” (“Do Things That Make a Difference,” Ensign, June 1983, 69–70). ʻOange ha ngaahi faingamālie ki he kau akó ke nau fakakaukau mo fokotuʻu ha ngaahi taumuʻa pau ʻe lava ke tokoniʻi kinautolu ke nau fakahoko ha fanga kiʻi ngāue lelei, mo anga māʻoniʻoni.

Fakaafe‘i e kau akó ke nau fokotuʻu ha taumuʻa pau ʻo e meʻa te nau lava ke fai ke mateuteu lelei ange ai ke maluʻi e totonu toputapu ʻo e tauʻatāina fakalotú. (‘E ala tokoni hano fakaʻaliʻali mo toe vakaiʻi e lea ʻa ʻEletā Lōpeti D. Heili ʻi he konga 2 ʻo e naunau teuteú.) Fakakaukau ke fakaafe‘i e kau akó ke nau tohi ha palani ngāue faingofua ke fakahoko ʻaki ʻenau taumuʻá.

Ki he Kalasi Hokó

Kole ki he kau akó ke nau fakakaukau ki he ʻuhinga ʻoku hoko ai e loto-hīkisiá ko ha kaveinga angamaheni ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná.
