God is not a casting director...



God is not a casting director. My worth is not in my performance. I can try and fail time and time again, and still have God’s grace. And with God’s grace I’ll keep showing up and trying to walk the walk. – Celeste

L-Att Penitenzjali u Glorja lil Alla fil-għoli tas-smewwiet



Nistqarr ‘l Alla li jista’ kollox, u lilkom, ħuti,
li jiena dnibt ħafna
bil-ħsieb, bil-kliem, bil-għemil,
u billi ħallejt dmirijieti:
ħtija tiegħi, ħtija tiegħi, bl-ikbar ħtija tiegħi.
Għalhekk nitlob lill-imqaddsa Marija dejjem Verġni,
lill-Anġli u ‘l-Qaddisin kollha, u lilkom, ħuti,
biex titolbu għalija lill-Mulej Alla tagħna.

---------------------------------------------
Glorja lil Alla fil-għoli tas-smewwiet,
u paċi fl-art lill-bnedmin ta’ rieda tajba.
Infaħħruk,
inberkuk,
nadurawk,
nagħtuk ġieħ,
inroddulek ħajr għall-glorja kbira tiegħek.
Mulej Alla, Sultan tas-sema.
Alla Missier li tista’ kollox,
Mulej Iben waħdieni, Ġesu’ Kristu,
Mulej Alla, Ħaruf t’Alla, Bin il-Missier,
Int li tneħħi d-dnubiet tad-dinja, ħenn għalina;
Int li tneħħi d-dnubiet tad-dinja, ilqa’ t-talb tagħna;
Int li qiegħed fuq il-lemin tal-Missier, ħenn għalina.
Għaliex int waħdek Qaddis,
int waħdek Mulej, int waħdek il-Għoli,
Ġesu’ Kristu, ma’ l-Ispirtu s-Santu: fil-glorja tal-Missier Alla.
Ammen.
