Fil-Laqg\u0127a Prayer Caf\u00e9 mmexxi minn Fr JESMOND MANICARO nhar il-\u0121img\u0127a 13 ta\u2019 Jannar trattat is-su\u0121\u0121ett tal-LITUR\u0120IJA FIL-QUDDIESA.<\/p>\n

Katabatika : azzjoni minn fuq g\u0127al isfel. F\u2019kull quddiesa Alla jie\u0127u din l-inzjattiva u minn hemm fuq jix\u0127et fuqna l-grazzja \/ l-im\u0127abba tieg\u0127u. Il-Bibbja\u00a0 hi storja wara l-o\u0127ra ta\u2019 azzjoni katabatika t\u2019Alla. Hu \u0127alaq l-univers-l-annimali-l-\u0127olqien- imbag\u0127ad \u0127alaq il-bniedem u bierku b\u2019barka spe\u010bjali. L-istess b\u0127alna l-ewwel bniedem kien kapri\u010b\u010bus \u2013 b\u0127ala e\u017cempju nsibu l-istorja ta\u2019 Noe u d-dulluvju. Imbag\u0127ad naraw l-azzjoni\u00a0 katabatika t\u2019Alla. Ja\u0127lef li ma jer\u0121ax jeqred l-art. Nsibu wkoll stejjer t\u2019Adam, ta\u2019 David ..stejjer ta\u2019 im\u0127abba t\u2019Alla lejn il-bniedem li til\u0127aq il-qu\u010b\u010bata tag\u0127ha fl-Inkarnazzjoni ta\u2019 \u0120esu \u2013 Alla bag\u0127at lill-Ibnu b\u0127ala rigal. Kull azzjoni u miraklu ta\u2019 \u0120esu naraw wirja tal-im\u0127abba t\u2019Alla g\u0127alina l-bnedmin u anke meta Kristu wasal biex imur lura g\u0127and il-missier qalilna mhux se n\u0127allikom iltiema imma bg\u0127atilna lill-Ispirtu s-Santu li permezz tieg\u0127u tasal g\u0127andna l-im\u0127abba tal-Missier. Katabazi hi x-xita ta\u2019 grazzji tal-im\u0127abba t\u2019Alla li tin\u017cel hawn isfel fuqna. Id-domanda li rridu nag\u0127mlu hija din \u2013 \u201cQeg\u0127din n\u0127ossuha l-Im\u0127abba t\u2019Alla, waqt i\u010b-\u010belebrazzjoni litur\u0121ika?\u201d Xi kultant nistaqsu imma \u0127adna gost waqt il-quddiesa? Mhix domanda ezatta li rridu nistaqsu \u2013 nie\u0127du gost f\u2019xi kun\u010bert… aktar milli \u0127adniex gost rridu nistaqsu lilna nfusna \u201c\u0126assejna l-presenza t\u2019ALLA fi qlubna?\u201d Ir-risposta tista tkun \u201civa\u201d u tista tkun \u201cle\u201d. Xi jkun \u0121ara meta ma n\u0127ossuhiex? Jistg\u0127u jkunu diversi r-ra\u0121unijiet g\u0127al dan. Jista\u2019 jkun li f\u2019\u0127ajjitna hemm dnub li mhux i\u0127alli l-im\u0127abba t\u2019Alla tippenetra f\u2019\u0127ajjitna. Dan id-dnub jista\u2019 jimblokka l-grazzja t\u2019Alla. Nistg\u0127u wkoll inkunu aljenati \u2013 mo\u0127\u0127na fil-pittura jew fl-affarijiet li \u0127allejna warajna. Fr Jesmond fakkarna fi \u0121rajja li g\u0127adda minnha Mons Ar\u010bisqof Pawlu Cremona meta dan kien fil-Brazil. Hemm hekk, fis-sempli\u010bita tal-post fejn kien qieg\u0127ed; is-sepulkru kien f\u2019toqba f\u2019 \u017cokk ta\u2019 si\u0121ra \u0121ewwa kaxxa taz-zraben mg\u0127otti b\u2019velu. U Mons Cremona kien \u0127aseb bejnu u bejn ru\u0127u, min jaf kemm il-darba d-deheb u l-fidded li n\u017cejnu t-tabernakli tag\u0127na bihom spi\u010b\u010baw biex telfuna mill-attenzjoni g\u0127all-Ewkaristija.<\/p>\n

Sfortunatament \u0127afna Maltin nibqg\u0127u fuq livell artifi\u010bjali u ma nikbrux fejn jid\u0127ol it-twemmin tag\u0127na. \u0126afna huma dawk li l-kateke\u017ci tag\u0127hom spi\u010b\u010ba mal-Grizma tal-Isqof. Wara ma baqg\u0127ux jipprofondixxu t-tag\u0127lim tal-fidi tag\u0127hom. Qalbhom baqg\u0127et bierda g\u0127al dan il-pro\u010bess ta\u2019 katabazi. B\u0127al fil-kas ta\u2019 \u0127biberija: wie\u0127ed isir jaf lill-ie\u0127or aktar ma jg\u0127addu \u017cmien flimkien. L-istess fir-relazzjoni tag\u0127na m\u2019Alla. U fil-bruda tag\u0127hom jispi\u010b\u010baw li x\u2019aktarx ma jmorrux aktar quddies jew forsi jmorru g\u0127al okkazzjonijiet ta\u2019 funerali jew ti\u0121ijiet.<\/p>\n

Problema o\u0127ra tista\u2019 tkun li qalbna tkun tant mimlija b\u2019affarijiet, li ma n\u0127allux post g\u0127al Mulej. U allura Alla jibg\u0127at il-grazzji tieg\u0127u, imma a\u0127na ma nilqg\u0127uhomx. Biex ifiehem din is-sitwazzjoni, Fr Jesmond irrakkonta storja ta\u2019 Patri mid-de\u017cert. Ra\u0121el sema\u2019 b\u2019Patri li kien msemmi g\u0127al qdusija u l-g\u0127erf tieg\u0127u; u mar g\u0127andu g\u0127al parir spiritwali; g\u0127ax kien i\u0127oss qalbu vojta mill-fer\u0127 t\u2019Alla. Wara li semg\u0127u l-Patri staqsih \u00a0x\u2019jag\u0127mel f\u2019\u0127ajtu u x\u2019kienu l-ispirazzjonijiet tieg\u0127u. Imbag\u0127ad il-Patri qabad buqar bl-ilma u lir-ra\u0121el qallu j\u017comm tazza filwaqt li beda jferra l-ilma fiha sakemm din faret u l-ilma baqa\u2019 nie\u017cel fl-art. Il-Patri lir-ra\u0121el qallu qalbek hi b\u0127al din it-tazza tant hi mimlija b\u2019tant \u0121ennijiet li m\u2019hemmx post g\u0127al Mulej \u2013 trid tbattal minnha biex jkun hemm post g\u0127alih. I\u017cda Azzjoni katabatika mhix xi \u0127a\u0121a li se\u0127\u0127 b\u2019mod awtomatiku… irridu a\u0127na nie\u0127du \u0127siebha. Mela Alla jie\u0127u l-inizzjattiva u jimliena bil-grazzja tieg\u0127u, imma rridu nikkoperaw ma din il-grazzja \u2013jekk a\u0127na rridu n\u0127ossuha u nwie\u0121bu g\u0127aliha. Imma anke hawn hawn periklu li r-ringrazzjament ma jkunx ringrazzjament \u0121enwin. Immorru l-knisja u g\u0127alkemm nwie\u0121bu g\u0127at-talb, dan ikun \u2018lip service\u2019. Anke fl-antik testment nsibu li Alla kien jibg\u0127at lill-profeti biex ibe\u017cb\u017cu lill-poplu Lhudi \u2013 g\u0127ax dawn b\u0127alna kienu jag\u0127mlu \u0127afna festi imma l-qalb kienet tkun x\u2019imkien ie\u0127or. Alla permezz tal-profeti kien jg\u0127id \u201cjien mhux offerti ta\u2019 l-annimali rrid imma jinteressani l-qalb tag\u0127kom\u201d. \u0120eremija, Ezekjel u Noe kollha widdbu lill-poplu Lhudi g\u0127aliex it-talb tag\u0127hom ma kienx jirrifletti x\u2019hemm fil-qalb.<\/p>\n

Din xi \u0127a\u0121a li tinkwieta lil Fr Jesmond Manicaro. Ejjew bis-sin\u010berita nistaqsu lilna nfusna meta nkunu fil-knisja nie\u0127du sehem fil-Litur\u0121ija tal-quddiesa; kemm a\u0127na konxji mill-azzjonijiet li qeg\u0127din nag\u0127mlu? Kemm huma \u0121enwini l-espressjonijiet ta\u2019 tif\u0127ir, ta\u2019 talb li jsir waqt il-quddiesa? JEW qeg\u0127din sempli\u010biment nirrepetu li jg\u0127idu l-o\u0127rajn? Imbag\u0127ad ng\u0127idu li n\u0127ossuna vojta u nibdew nwa\u0127\u0127lu fil-qassis g\u0127ax ma jafx jipprietka, fil-kor g\u0127ax kanta stonat, fil-lettur g\u0127ax ma qarax sew… kollox jista\u2019 jkun minnu \u2013 imma jista jkun ukoll li l-problema l-kbira hija a\u0127na. A\u0127na li g\u0127adna ma ppreparajniex bi\u017c\u017cejjed biex nilqg\u0127u l-grazzja t\u2019Alla. Din hija d-dimensjoni vertikali u mag\u0127ha hemm id-dimensjoni orizontali \u2013 dak li ni\u010b\u010belebraw fil-knisja jrid jitkompla barra. Ma nistg\u0127ux n\u0127ossuna qrib t\u2019Alla fil-knisja u kif no\u0127or\u0121u ni\u0121\u0121ieldu ma nofs ir-ra\u0127al! San \u0120wann jg\u0127idilna kif nista\u2019 n\u0127obb lil Alla li ma narahx u imbag\u0127ad jkolli nuqqas ta\u2019 rispett lejn \u0127uti li niltaqa\u2019 mag\u0127hom kuljum. Dak li nibdew fil-knisja rridu nsarrfuh fil-\u0127ajja tag\u0127na billi ng\u0127inu fil-bini tas-Saltna t\u2019Alla fuq din l-art.<\/p>\n

Kif nistg\u0127u nsa\u0127\u0127u l-azzjoni anabatika tag\u0127na? Il-katabazi tiddependi minn Alla; b\u0127al parabola ta\u017c-\u017cerrieg\u0127a. Dik li taqa\u2019 fuq art tajba tag\u0127mel il-frott filwaqt li dik li taqa\u2019 fuq art \u0127a\u017cina ma tag\u0127milx frott. L-istess a\u0127na. L-im\u0127abba t\u2019Alla qeg\u0127da hemm g\u0127al kul\u0127add i\u017cda jiddependi minna biex ine\u0127\u0127u dak li qieg\u0127ed jiblokkana \u2013 f\u2019kas li hu dnub irridu nsibu direttur spiritwali biex jigwidana.<\/p>\n

L-azzjoni anabatika tag\u0127na trid tkun aktar bis-sens. It-talb fil-Litur\u0121ija jrid ikun b\u2019aktar sens. Dan nistg\u0127u nag\u0127mluh billi nivalutaw aktar is-sinjali u l-kliem li jing\u0127ad. Meta saret ir-riforma Litur\u0121ika u l-quddies mill-Latin saret bil-Malti nqallbu t-testi g\u0127al-Maltin u \u0127asbu li kollox lest i\u017cda ma kienx…ma sarx formazzjoni kemm fuq il-kliem u kif ukoll fuq is-sinjali li jintu\u017caw fil-Litur\u0121ija. Per e\u017cempju s-silenzju huwa nieqes g\u0127al kollox mill-Litur\u0121ija tag\u0127na. Jrid ikollna f\u2019mo\u0127\u0127na l-e\u017cempju ta\u2019 \u0120es\u00f9. Kien i\u0127oss il b\u017conn li minn mument g\u0127al ie\u0127or jinqata\u2019 ftit mill-\u0121enn u jmur jin\u0121abar jitlob fis-skiet.\u00a0 F\u2019wa\u0127da mill-kitbiet tieg\u0127u, il-Papa \u0120wanni Pawlu II jg\u0127id li fid-dinja storbjuza tal-llum il-litur\u0121ija tag\u0127na g\u0127andha tkun \u2018oasi\u2019 – tant il-bniedem g\u0127andu b\u017connu s-silenzju li jmur ifittxu x\u2019imkien ie\u0127or b\u0127al fil-yoga u dan hu xi \u0127a\u0121a li di\u0121a g\u0127andna imma ma nuzawhx. Il-Papa kien \u017cied jg\u0127id li s-silenzju j\u017comm ankrat f\u2019qalbna dak li nisimg\u0127u… g\u0127alhekk importanti li wara Omelija jkun hemm mument ta\u2019 silenzju. Kwazi sirna na\u0127sbu li hemm xi nuqqas ta\u2019 xi \u0127a\u0121a kif ikun hemm mument ta\u2019 silenzju! Barra s-sinjali fil-Litur\u0121ija nsibu sinjali o\u0127ra. (ktieb li wie\u0127ed jista\u2019 jni\u017c\u017cel minn fuq l-internet dwar dan hu \u201cSacred Signs minn Romano Guardini<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

Per ezempju meta g\u0127andna nag\u0127mlu l-\u0121eniflessjoni u g\u0127aliex? Dan il-\u0121est ikun qed juri li inti qieg\u0127ed ti\u010b\u010bekken quddiem il-presenza t\u2019Alla dak li jaf u g\u0127andu kollox.<\/p>\n

Is-sinjal tas-Salib xi jfisser? \u00a0Meta niksu rigal b\u2019\u017cigarella dan nag\u0127mluh forma ta\u2019 salib… ng\u0127aqdu kollox bih… l-istess meta nag\u0127mlu s-sinjal tas-salib qisna qeg\u0127din nkebbu lilna nfusna kollna kemm a\u0127na bi Kristu, biex mbag\u0127ad minnhu nie\u0127du l-qawwa biex ng\u0127elbu t-tentazzjonijiet. Tifsira o\u0127ra tas-salib hi: \u201cKristu Alla mis-sema sar bniedem biex mid-dlam ng\u0127addu g\u0127ad-dawl\u201d<\/p>\n

G\u0127alhekk meta tifhem l-iskop ta\u2019 wara dawn is-sinjali tkun tista\u2019 tid\u0127ol aktar fil-fond tal-Litur\u0121ija.<\/p>\n

Barra s-sinjali; fil-litur\u0121ija nsibu wkoll kliem. Wa\u0127da mill-aktar talbiet qosra li hemm fil-quddiesa hi \u201cIl-Mulej Mag\u0127kom<\/em>\u201d u r-risposta tag\u0127na lill-qassis hi \u201cU mieg\u0127ek ukoll<\/em>\u201d. F\u2019dak il-\u0127in il-qassis qieg\u0127ed jitlob fuqna … qieg\u0127ed jawguralna li \u201cL-Mulej jkun fil-\u0127ajja tag\u0127kom<\/em>\u2019 u a\u0127na qed nirrispondu \u201cFr. dak li qieg\u0127ed tixtieq lilna nixtiequh lilek ukoll<\/em>\u201d. Talba li ntennuha erba\u2019 darbiet fil-quddiesa.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Fil-bidu. Biha jitlob fuqna prezenti biex fil-minuti li \u0121ejjin n\u0127ossu l-qawwa t\u2019Alla fuqna.<\/li>\n
  2. Qabel il-van\u0121elu: Biha hawn is-sa\u010berdot qieg\u0127ed jitlob biex nisimg\u0127u l-kelma t\u2019Alla u biha qalbna tit\u0127e\u0121\u0121e\u0121 b\u0127alma t\u0127e\u0121\u0121u d-dixxipli ta\u2019 Emmaws.<\/li>\n
  3. Din it-talba \u010bkejna ter\u0121a tintqal qabel it-talba Ewkaristika. J\u2019Alla ng\u0127arfu lill-Mulej fil-qsim tal-\u0127ob\u017c b\u0127ad-dixxipli ta\u2019 Emmaws.<\/li>\n
  4. Ter\u0121a ting\u0127ad fl-a\u0127\u0127ar tal-quddiesa.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Kemm hu importanti li jkollna kateke\u017ci biex nifhmu a\u0127jar il-quddiesa. Kemm hu importanti li nfittxu nifhmu il-kliem li ng\u0127idu a\u0127na stess b\u0127ala rit tal-quddiesa. Meta nifhmu dak li qieg\u0127ed jing\u0127ad kemm napprezzaw aktar il-Litur\u0121ija tal-quddiesa.<\/p>\n

    Qatt \u0127sibt li Kristu jista\u2019 jag\u0127mel differenza f\u2019\u0127ajtek? Dan irid isir b\u2019mixja ta\u2019 konversjoni. Trid t\u0127alli \u0127in g\u0127al mieg\u0127u \u0127alli jag\u0127tik d-dawl kif titfa\u010b\u010bja l-problemi li niltaqg\u0127u mag\u0127hom. Meta mbag\u0127ad n-nies ta\u2019 madwarna jaraw l-bidla fina ( per e\u017cempju ta\u0127fer lil min naqsek) din il-bidla ti\u0121bidhom lejn \u0120esu. Din hija l-mixja li kull nisrani jrid jimxi kuljum minkejja li l-\u0127in tag\u0127na mimli daqs bajda. L-istess kif ma\u0127bu\/a jfittex\/tfittex li tisraq mument mill-\u0121urnata biex inkunu mal \u2013ma\u0127bubin tag\u0127na.<\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
