So Blagoslov na Otec Mitko ( Negova Propoved za Presveta Bogorodica)
Postete zaradi Presveta Bogorodica.
Poradi nejzinata milost i dobrina.
Postete za nea, ne za sebe.
Ne za ishrana, ne za zdravje, i ne zatoa što e „korisno“.
Ne zatoa što „morate“, tuku zatoa što sakate so seta svoja duša.
Postete zatoa što ja sakate, zatoa što vašeto srce ja obožava.
Zatoa što taa nikogaš ne ve napušta koga site drugi ḱe isčeznat.
Postete so radost, so svetlina i so ljubov kon site.
Ne so napnatost i gnev.
Ne so ozboruvanja ili surovost.
Ne gledajte vo vašata hrana i ne čuvstvuvajte deka vi nedostasuva nešto.
Ne gubite ništo. Naprotiv, dobivate blagodat i blagoslov - vistinskata hrana što ja zadovoluva celata ličnost.
Postete od ljubov, a ne od potreba.
Postete so hrabrost i dostoinstvo.
Postete bez da barate ništo osven nejzinoto prisustvo.
Kaži vo tvoeto srce:
„Presveta Bogorodice, ovaa godina nema da te molam za ništo.
Samo Ti si taa što ja sakam.
Te molam samo da go počuvstvuvam Tvoeto prisustvo,
da ja vkusam Tvojata sladost,
da se odmoram vo Tvoite race, da spijam vo mir i da najdam uteha.“
Zatoa što znam: duri i da nemam ništo, koga Te imam, imam sè.
With Father Mitko’s blessing
Fast for the sake of the Most Holy Theotokos.
Because of her mercy and kindness.
Fast for her, not for yourself.
Not for nutrition, not for health, and not because it is “useful.”
Not because you “have to,” but because you want to with all your soul.
Fast because you love her, because your heart adores her.
Because she never abandons you when everyone else has disappeared.
Fast with joy, with light, and with love for all.
Not with tension and anger.
Not with gossip or cruelty.
Do not look at your food and feel that you are missing something.
You lose nothing. On the contrary, you gain grace and blessing — the true food that satisfies the whole person.
Fast out of love, not out of necessity.
Fast with courage and dignity.
Fast without asking for anything except her presence.
Say in your heart:
“Most Holy Mother of God, this year I will ask You for nothing.
You alone are the one I love.
I only ask to feel Your presence,
to feel Your sweetness,
to rest in Your arms, to sleep in peace, and to find comfort.”
Because I know: even if I have nothing, when I have You, I have everything.
