X’se nagħmlu dwar in-nuqqas ta’ Vokazzjonijiet?

Ħafna minna jafu, u jħobbu jgħidu, t-talba għall-vokazzjonijiet... "Mulej, Missier ta' Sidna Ġesù Kristu, li qal li l-ħsad huwa kbir imma l-ħaddiema huma ftit, nitolbuk li tibgħat aktar ħaddiema għall-ħsad tiegħek..."

Jiena nemmen li s-sejħat tiegħu Alla jagħmilhom fiċ-ċokon, biex il-bniedem, huwa u jimmatura, jkompli jibni ħajtu madwar is-sejħa li tkun sa-ritlu. Mhix deċiżjoni faċli, għal ħadd. U xejn inqas għaż-żgħażagħ li llum huma mdawrin b'tant opportunitajiet li faċilment inessuk il-veru skop tal-ħajja. "Agħmel li ż-żgħażagħ tagħna jkunu dejjem aktar ġenerużi għas-sejħat tiegħek..." Trid preparazzjoni biex tinduna Alla xi jkun qed jitlob minnek. Waqt li nikbru bħala nsara u ngħixu ħajja li togħġob lil Alla fl-affarijiet iż-żgħar ta' kuljum, inkunu qed niftħu ħajjitna għal Kristu u fina tinbet xewqa li nwettqu r-rieda tiegħu, tkun xi tkun, anke jekk tkun sejħa li ma ddoqqilniex.

Is-saċerdot fil-parroċċa għandu biċċa xogħol sabiħa ħafna. L-ewwelnett għax għandu ċans jgħix fost in-nies li jkunu qishom aħwa tiegħu. Flim-kien iridu jiskopru d-doni li Alla jkun qed jafdalhom – bħala individwi u bħala komunità. Is-saċerdot, u kull nisrani, għandhom ikunu grati lejn Alla u lejn xulxin għax permezz tal-ħajja flimkien ikun qed iħeġġina “għal doni akbar”.

Il-parroċċa wkoll tqiegħed lis-saċerdot f'kuntatt man-nies. Tagħtih dawl fuq dak li qed jiġri fis-soċjetà, fil-familji; fuq dak li qed jgħin jew itellef lill-bniedem waqt li jkun qed jgħix ħajtu. Issa hu l-waqt biex "noħorġu f'baħar iktar fond" kif kien jgħid il-Papa Ġwanni Pawli II, u bla biża' na-għtu ħarsa lejn ħajjitna. Jien dejjem qed nagħmel li rrid? Jew b’mod sinċier qed niprova nieħu l-ħajja “minn idejn Alla” kif ngħidu?

Int ukoll li qed taqra tista’ tagħmel xi ħaġa. Ibda billi tgħid kuljum it-talba għall-vokazzjonijiet. Sib mument meta tista’ tgħidha ma’ membri oħra tal-familja. Jew inkella agħżel ġurnata fix-xahar u għamluha l-ġurnata tagħkom tal-familja biex titolbu għal dan il-għan. Jekk ikun hemm iktar nies fil-parroċċa li jitħajru bżalkom, tkun inħolqot talba kontinwa lil Alla matul ix-xahar kollu.

Jalla jkolna għal qalbna l-vokazzjonijiet anke mill-parroċċa tagħna. Waqt li napprezzaw ix-xogħol li jwettqu fostna s-saċerdoti ejjew nitolbu u nagħmlu ħilitna biex fina u madwarna tkompli tinbena s-Saltna t'Alla.

Robert Galea is a seminarian reading for a theology and philosophy degree at the University of Malta. While on this road towards priesthood he also has a great pas-sion to let the cry of his heart shout loud through his music. Following the tremendous success of his 3-track single ‘More of You’, released in 2004, he has been given the opportunity to record his latest project in the UK under top Christian Music producer Neil Costello (City of Gold, Spring Harvest, One Heart One Voice). With musicians such as Mark Prentice (Delirious), Neil Costello (Gloria Gaynor), Paul Evans (Tim Hughes and Matt Redman) and more, as well as Robert’s “rich vocals” (Phil Loose ICC Records), “transparent and real lyr-ics” (Chris York EMI Christian Music Group) and catchy tunes, this project caught the attention of a number of international Christian record labels during his short stay in the United Kingdom. “The reason for this recording” says Robert “is not simply one of expression or statement-making, but a fulfilment of a desire to give people the opportunity to un-derstand my love for God, and, more importantly, my meagre understanding of God’s love for us, and in doing so may begin to love Him too. I do believe that love is very contagious. My idea for this album, or for writing songs at that, is nothing than to help the so many who find it hard to ‘connect’ with a God, who sometimes, if not all the time, seems so far away.” Robert firmly believes that the Christian Music industry in Malta, though selling a considerable amount of records every year, deserves a boost in quality and needs to be taken so much more seriously. “Christian music has so much to offer, especially with today’s constant negative, atheistic messages being sounded by secular music. There are so many great Christian musicians and songwriters out there, and I know this is just the beginning of something awesome in contemporary Christian mu-sic.” ‘Closer’, Robert’s debut album contains 10 worship songs which were all written or co-written by Robert himself. The songs on this record are published by Daybreak Music, and the album is being distributed in the UK and the rest of Europe (apart from Malta that is) by ICC Records. It is being supported by APS Bank. ‘Closer’ is available from all leading record stores, as well as Christian bookstores around the island. For more information visit www.thatsworship.com.
