      \u00a0 Uzklausot \u0161os v\u0101rdus, Klavdijs nodeva Valent\u012bnu vienam no galvenajiem augstma\u0146iem- Ast\u0113rijam, cilv\u0113kam, kur\u0161 bija paz\u012bstams ar savu aso pr\u0101tu, lai tas vi\u0146u p\u0101rliecin\u0101tu, ka pag\u0101nu tic\u012bba ir lab\u0101ka par krist\u012bgo tic\u012bbu.

Izmantojot laic\u012bgos avotus, atjaunosim \u0161o sv\u0113tku ra\u0161an\u0101s \u201cv\u0113sturi\u201d. No avotu viedok\u013ca t\u0101 ir t\u0101da. Rom\u0101 imperatora Klavdija II laik\u0101, kur\u0161 bija aizliedzis saviem kareivjiem doties laul\u012bb\u0101, dz\u012bvoja gar\u012bdznieks Valent\u012bns. Valent\u012bns pret\u0113ji imperatora r\u012bkojumam slepeni turpin\u0101ja laul\u0101t iem\u012bl\u0113ju\u0161os, par ko vi\u0146u sod\u012bja ar cietumsodu. Klavdijs pav\u0113l\u0113ja gar\u012bdznieku sod\u012bt ar n\u0101ves sodu. Ieslodz\u012bjum\u0101 Valent\u012bns it k\u0101 rakst\u012bja v\u0113stules cietumsarga meitai, kuru bija iem\u012bl\u0113jis. Pirms n\u0101ves soda izpild\u012b\u0161anas jaunais gar\u012bdznieks uzrakst\u012bja meitenei atvadu v\u0113stuli ar \u012bsu fr\u0101zi- \u201cno Valent\u012bna\u201d. Sa\u0146emot \u0161o v\u0113sti, cietumsarga meita, esot akla, k\u013cuva redz\u012bga. No t\u0101 laika \u013caudis \u0161o dienu svin k\u0101 iem\u012bl\u0113ju\u0161os sv\u0113tkus. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Bet saska\u0146\u0101 ar apustu\u013ca J\u0101\u0146a Teologa v\u0101rdiem, nedr\u012bkst tic\u0113t katram garam, bet ir j\u0101p\u0101rbauda, vai tas ir no Dieva, \u201cjo daudz viltus pravie\u0161u ir izg\u0101ju\u0161i pasaul\u0113\u201d (1. J\u0146.4,1). T\u0101d\u0113\u013c ar\u012b m\u0113s cen\u0161amies p\u0101rbaud\u012bt \u0161o sv\u0113tku garu, vai tas ir no Dieva un t\u0101d\u0113\u013c griez\u012bsimies pie avota, pie kura grie\u017eas katrs dievbij\u012bgs kristietis- pie Rostovas Dmitrija Sv\u0113to dz\u012bves st\u0101stiem. Atz\u012bm\u0113sim, ka \u0161ie notikumi norisin\u0101j\u0101s III gadsimt\u0101, kad turpin\u0101j\u0101s kristie\u0161u vaj\u0101\u0161anas, kas s\u0101k\u0101s jau imperatora Nerona laik\u0101. Valsts baid\u012bj\u0101s, ka kristiet\u012bba k\u0101 sve\u0161a reli\u0123ija saniknos t\u0101s \u201cdievus\u201d un tie nov\u0113rs\u012bsies no imp\u0113rijas. Bez tam katram imperatoram bija tituls Pontificus magnus (augst\u0101kais kalps), tas ir- vi\u0146\u0161 bija p\u0101rliecin\u0101ts pag\u0101ns. \u201cSv\u0113to dz\u012bvesst\u0101stos\u201d par 6. j\u016bliju m\u0113s lasam par gar\u012bdznieku Valent\u012bnu, kur\u0161 bija atvests uz tiesu, bet ne par to, ka vi\u0146\u0161 it k\u0101 ir laul\u0101jis karav\u012brus, bet par Kristus apliecin\u0101\u0161anu par Dievu. Paskat\u012bsimies sarunu, kas notika starp cietsird\u012bgo imperatoru Klavdiju, kur\u0161 izdeva pav\u0113li sod\u012bt ar n\u0101vessodu visus kristie\u0161us, un jauno presbiteru. K\u0101p\u0113c tu, dz\u012bvojot starp m\u016bsu tautu, neesi vienpr\u0101t\u012bb\u0101 ar mums? Es esmu pietieko\u0161i dzird\u0113jis par j\u016bsu krist\u012bgo m\u0101c\u012bbu un br\u012bnos, k\u0101 tu, gudrs cilv\u0113ks, aizraujies ar \u0161\u012bm tuk\u0161aj\u0101m j\u016bsu tic\u012bbas pasak\u0101m?- Klaudijs jaut\u0101ja Valent\u012bnam. Ja tu zin\u0101tu Dieva d\u0101vanu, kas ir m\u016bsu tic\u012bb\u0101, tad ar prieku to pie\u0146emtu, tu pats un tava tauta noraid\u012btu viltus dievus un cilv\u0113ku roku rad\u012btus elkus un apliecin\u0101tu Vien\u012bgo Visuvareno Dievu T\u0113vu un J\u0113zu Kristu, Vi\u0146a D\u0113lu, visa eso\u0161\u0101 Rad\u012bt\u0101ju, Kur\u0161 ir rad\u012bjis debesis un zemi, j\u016bru un visu, kas taj\u0101s,- atbild\u0113ja Valent\u012bns. Ja Kristus ir Dievs, tad k\u0101d\u0113\u013c tu man nepast\u0101sti visu paties\u012bbu par Vi\u0146u?- pajaut\u0101ja imperators, kur\u0161 uzman\u012bgi klaus\u012bj\u0101s. \u00a0 \u00a0 Ak, valdniek! Uzklausi mani, un tava dv\u0113sele tiks gl\u0101bta, papla\u0161in\u0101sies tava valst\u012bba un pazud\u012bs tavi ienaidnieki, tu visus uzvar\u0113si un \u0161eit baud\u012bsi laic\u012bgo, bet n\u0101kam\u0101 dz\u012bv\u0113- m\u016b\u017e\u012bgo valst\u012bbu. Tikai izdari sekojo\u0161o: no\u017e\u0113lo gr\u0113kus par tevis izlietaj\u0101m sv\u0113to asin\u012bm, notici Kristum un pie\u0146em Sv\u0113to Krist\u012bbu. \u00a0 Uzklausot \u0161os v\u0101rdus, Klavdijs nodeva Valent\u012bnu vienam no galvenajiem augstma\u0146iem- Ast\u0113rijam, cilv\u0113kam, kur\u0161 bija paz\u012bstams ar savu aso pr\u0101tu, lai tas vi\u0146u p\u0101rliecin\u0101tu, ka pag\u0101nu tic\u012bba ir lab\u0101ka par krist\u012bgo tic\u012bbu. Ierodoties Ast\u0113rija m\u0101j\u0101s, Valent\u012bns l\u016bdz\u0101s, lai Kungs atgrieztu pie Sevis \u0161o namu un p\u0113c tumsas dotu vi\u0146am gaismu, lai vi\u0146\u0161 iepaz\u012btu Dievu un Kristu vien\u012bb\u0101 ar Sv\u0113to Garu. Ast\u0113rijs, dzirdot sv\u0113t\u0101 Valent\u012bna l\u016bg\u0161anu, ar izbr\u012bnu pajaut\u0101ja, k\u0101d\u0113\u013c vi\u0146\u0161 Kristu sauc par Gaismu. Sv\u0113tais atbild\u0113ja, ka Kungs J\u0113zus Kristus ir Paties\u0101 Gaisma, kas apskaidro katru cilv\u0113ku, kur\u0161 ir ien\u0101cis pasaul\u0113. Ja Vi\u0146\u0161 apskaidro katru cilv\u0113ku,- teica Ast\u0113rijs,- tad es t\u016bda\u013c pat p\u0101rbaud\u012b\u0161u vai t\u0101 ir paties\u012bba, ko tu saki. Man ir meita, kura k\u013cuva akla pirms divu gadu vecuma sasnieg\u0161anas, un, ja tu Kristus v\u0101rd\u0101 atgriez\u012bsi vi\u0146ai redzi, tad es izdar\u012b\u0161u visu, ko tu pav\u0113l\u0113si. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Valent\u012bns pal\u016bdza atvest meiteni. Vi\u0146\u0161 ar asar\u0101m piel\u016bdza Dievu, p\u0113c tam uzlika savu roku uz akl\u0101s ac\u012bm un teica: \u201cKungs J\u0113zu Kristu! Apskaidro Savu kalponi, jo Tu esi Paties\u0101 Gaisma\u201d. P\u0113c \u0161iem v\u0101rdiem meitene t\u016bda\u013c k\u013cuva redz\u012bga. To redzot, Ast\u0113rijs un vi\u0146a sieva nokrita pie sv\u0113t\u0101 k\u0101j\u0101m ar v\u0101rdiem: \u201cL\u016bdzam tevi, dari ar mums, ko tu v\u0113lies, lai m\u0113s k\u013c\u016btu par Kristus kalpiem un m\u016bsu dv\u0113seles izgl\u0101btos\u201d. Tad sv. Valent\u012bns vi\u0146iem lika izn\u012bcin\u0101t visus elkus, kas atrad\u0101s vi\u0146u nam\u0101, atlaist par\u0101dus par\u0101dniekiem un p\u0113c tr\u012bs dienu ilga gav\u0113\u0146a pie\u0146emt Sv\u0113to Krist\u012bbu.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ast\u0113rijs un vi\u0146a sieva piekrita to visu izpild\u012bt, un sv\u0113tais s\u0101ka vi\u0146iem m\u0101c\u012bt krist\u012bg\u0101s tic\u012bbas paties\u012bbas. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 P\u0113c tr\u012bs dien\u0101m Ast\u0113rijs krist\u012bj\u0101s l\u012bdz ar visu savu namu. Par to uzzin\u0101jis, imperators nekav\u0113jo\u0161i s\u016bt\u012bja kareivjus sag\u016bst\u012bt visus Ast\u0113rija nam\u0101 dz\u012bvojo\u0161os un tos moc\u012bt, lai vi\u0146i atteiktos no Kristus. Bez tam vi\u0146\u0161 pav\u0113l\u0113ja atdal\u012bt Valent\u012bnu un v\u0113l da\u017eus kristie\u0161us no Ast\u0113rija \u0123imenes, cerot, ka t\u0101lum\u0101 no vi\u0146iem jaunkrist\u012btie un v\u0113l tic\u012bb\u0101 nep\u0101rbaud\u012btie \u0101tri atteiksies no Kristus. Bet vi\u0146\u0161 k\u013c\u016bdij\u0101s. Sv\u0113tais Ast\u0113rijs pie\u0146\u0113ma mocek\u013ca n\u0101vi kop\u0101 ar saviem m\u0101jiniekiem, kurus vi\u0146\u0161 stiprin\u0101ja ar v\u0101rdiem: \u201cEsiet drosm\u012bgi, nebaidieties, jo Tas, Kur\u0161 bija redzams B\u0101beles kr\u0101sn\u012b ar tr\u012bs pusaud\u017eiem, tagad st\u0101v m\u016bsu vid\u016b\u201d. Bet sv\u0113tais Valent\u012bns ar da\u017eiem kristie\u0161iem tika aizvests uz tiesu pie Klavdija, kur p\u0113c imperatora pav\u0113les vi\u0146u bez \u017e\u0113last\u012bbas sita ar n\u016bj\u0101m, bet p\u0113c tam nocirta galvu ar zobenu. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sv\u0113tais moceklis Valent\u012bns beidza dz\u012bvi ar slavas pilnu n\u0101vi Kristus d\u0113\u013c, bet nevis t\u0101d\u0113\u013c, ka slepeni laul\u0101ja Romas kareivjus. Esot va\u017e\u0101s, vi\u0146\u0161 nerakst\u012bja m\u012blest\u012bbas v\u0113stules aklajai cietumsarga meitai, bet, l\u012bdz\u012bgi k\u0101 p\u0101r\u0113jie uz n\u0101vi noties\u0101tie kristie\u0161i, l\u016bdza J\u0113zu Kristu, lai stiprina vi\u0146a sp\u0113kus baiso moku laik\u0101. \u201cSen\u0101 le\u0123enda\u201d par sv\u0113to Valent\u012bnu ne tikai aizskar vi\u0146a piemi\u0146u, t\u0101 aizskar visu mocek\u013cu piemi\u0146u, kuri pie\u0146\u0113ma n\u0101vi par Kristu, aizskar Sv\u0113to Bazn\u012bcu, aizskar ar\u012b m\u016bs, kristie\u0161us, kuri dz\u012bvo \u0161odien.

No kurienes tad pie mums ir ieradu\u0161ies \u0161ie nekrist\u012bgie sv\u0113tki, kas tiek saukti par sv\u0113t\u0101 Valent\u012bna dienu? Izr\u0101d\u0101s, ka tie nav atn\u0101ku\u0161i no krist\u012bgajiem Austrumiem un ne no katoliskajiem Rietumiem, bet no rupja pag\u0101nisma. Senaj\u0101 Rom\u0101 eksist\u0113ja luperu sv\u0113tki, kurus svin\u0113ja 14. febru\u0101r\u012b. \u0160ie sv\u0113tki bija velt\u012bti Faunam- pag\u0101nu lauku, me\u017eu, p\u013cavu un dz\u012bvnieku dievam.
