Original: 

🇪🇸 REZA POR MÍ

Artículo publicado en ABC de Sevilla

No es habitual que un artículo dedicado estrictamente a la oración tenga una página entera en la sección de opinión de un gran periódico. Esto ha ocurrido con el texto que firma Miguel Ángel Robles y que sale publicado en ABC Sevilla bajo el título “Reza por mí” que se ha vuelto viral.

Léelo sin falta. ¡Es una belleza!

“Rezar es una conversación con Dios. Es el momento de más calma del día, y, en mi caso, el de primera hora de la mañana, poco más de las seis, y el agua de la ducha caliente cayendo despacio sobre los hombros.

Rezar es una fotografía en sepia, un regreso a la casa de tus abuelos y al tiempo sin tiempo de tu infancia.

Es un Padre Nuestro hablando con Dios para que te ayude en los exámenes. Es el refugio del frío, y el silencio acogedor. Rezar es tener memoria.

Rezar es lo que va antes del trabajo o después del trabajo, y lo que nunca lo suplanta

Es lo único que puedes hacer cuando ya no puedes hacer más, y es la forma de comprometerse de quien no tiene otro medio de hacerlo, como cuando rezamos por un enfermo que se va a operar y ya está todo en manos del cirujano (y de Dios).

Rezar  hace milagros, ofrece consuelo al que reza y a aquel por quien se reza. Rezar nunca es inútil, porque siempre conforta.

Rezar es decir rezaré por ti y, también, reza por mí. Y es, por tanto, lo contrario a la vanidad.

Rezar es la aceptación de tus limitaciones. Es aprender a resignarse cuando lo que pudo ser no ha sido. Es vivir sin rencor, aprender a olvidar, aceptar la derrota con dignidad y celebrar el triunfo con humildad.

Rezar  es buscar las fuerzas si no se tienen y confiar en que las cosas van a ser como deberían ser.

Rezar es optimismo, no dar nada por perdido, luchar y resistir. Rezar es fragilidad y entereza.

Rezar es desconectar y apagar el móvil. Es introspección en la sociedad del exhibicionismo. Es relajarse y calmar los nervios. Y prepararse mentalmente para lo que ha de venir. No es solo buscar el coraje, sino también la inspiración, la idea, el enfoque, la luz, el claro en medio de la espesura.

Rezar es razonar, aunque parezca lo más irracional que haya. Es la mente funcionando como cuando juegas un partido de tenis. Es planificar y anticipar las jugadas. Es abstracción en los tiempos de lo concreto y lo material. Es pausa en un mundo excitado. Es calma cuando todo es ansiedad. Y es aburrido en la dictadura de lo divertido.

Rezar es una forma extrema de independencia.  

Rezar es un placer oculto, que se reserva para la intimidad. Un acto privado, y casi a escondidas, que, cuando se hace acompañado, necesita mucha confianza.

Rezar es una declaración de amor por la persona que tienes en tus rezos. Es derramar tu cariño sobre los que más quieres y sentir el cariño de los que rezan por ti.

Rezar es tener a otros en tus oraciones y estar en las oraciones de otros, que es mucho más que estar solo en su memoria.

Rezar, y sobre todo que recen por ti, es la mayor aspiración que uno puede tener en la vida. Un privilegio inmenso. Es querer tanto a alguien como para rezar por él, y que alguien te quiera tanto como para rezar por ti.

¿Cabe mayor orgullo? ¿Existe mayor plenitud que la de saber que hay una madre, un hermano, un hijo o un amigo que quiere que Dios te proteja, y te dé salud, y te ilumine, y te ayude, y te acompañe, y esté siempre contigo?

Rezar es tener fe. Tener fe en la vida, en las personas, en tus amigos, en tus hijos, en tus padres, en Dios.

Rezar es un súper poder que nos predispone al bien.

Rezar es creer y ser practicante de un mundo mejor”

Compártelo, vale la pena.

Por favor, ¡reza por mí!

English 🇺🇸 

“Prayer is a conversation with God. It is the calmest moment of the day, and in my case, it happens first thing in the morning, a little after six, with the hot shower water slowly falling over my shoulders.

Prayer is a sepia photograph, a return to your grandparents’ house and to the timelessness of your childhood.

It’s an ‘Our Father’ spoken to God, asking for help with exams. It’s the refuge from the cold and the welcoming silence. Prayer is memory.

Prayer is what happens before or after work, but it never replaces it.

It’s the only thing you can do when you can no longer do anything else. It’s the way to commit yourself when you have no other means of doing so, like when we pray for a sick person who is about to undergo surgery, and everything is now in the hands of the surgeon (and God).

Prayer works miracles, offers comfort to the one who prays and to the person being prayed for. Prayer is never useless because it always comforts.

Prayer is saying, ‘I will pray for you’ and also, ‘Pray for me.’ And thus, it is the opposite of vanity.

Prayer is the acceptance of your limitations. It’s learning to resign yourself when what could have been, wasn’t. It’s living without resentment, learning to forget, accepting defeat with dignity, and celebrating victory with humility.

Prayer is seeking strength when you don’t have it and trusting that things will turn out as they should.

Prayer is optimism, never giving up, fighting, and resisting. Prayer is fragility and steadfastness.

Prayer is disconnecting and turning off the phone. It is introspection in a society of exhibitionism. It’s relaxing and calming the nerves. And mentally preparing for what’s to come. It’s not just about seeking courage, but also inspiration, ideas, focus, the light, the clearing in the midst of the thicket.

Prayer is reasoning, even though it may seem the most irrational thing. It’s the mind working as it does when playing a tennis match. It’s planning and anticipating moves. It’s abstraction in times of concreteness and materialism. It’s a pause in an excited world. It’s calm when everything is anxiety. And it’s boring in the dictatorship of fun.

Prayer is an extreme form of independence.

Prayer is a hidden pleasure, reserved for intimacy. A private act, almost in secret, that, when done together, requires great trust.

Prayer is a declaration of love for the person you hold in your prayers. It’s pouring your affection on those you love the most and feeling the affection of those who pray for you.

Prayer is having others in your prayers and being in the prayers of others, which is much more than just being in their memory.

Praying, and especially being prayed for, is the greatest aspiration one can have in life. A huge privilege. It’s loving someone so much that you pray for them, and having someone love you enough to pray for you.

Is there any greater pride? Is there any greater fulfillment than knowing that a mother, a brother, a child, or a friend wants God to protect you, give you health, illuminate you, help you, accompany you, and always be with you?

Prayer is having faith. Faith in life, in people, in your friends, in your children, in your parents, in God.

Prayer is a superpower that predisposes us to do good.

Prayer is believing and practicing for a better world.”

Share it. It’s worth it.

Please, pray for me!
