I would love to be more in touch with it, sadly in Latin America Eastern tradition doesn't make many apparitions, I am from Nicaragua and lived in Honduras and have never met any practicing Orthodox nor any Eastern Rite Catholics. The only one is a cousin her dad is Orthodox I think and she went to Orthodox church while living in Palestine, but she claims herself as Catholic. Such a shame it's not deep in our culture since even some catholics have gone away from their catholic rites, I have always loved the serenity that comes to the soul with Eastern liturgy at least from the few videos I have watched. No churches, no people no Eastern very sad. Shalom aleihem.
He’s Eastern-rite Catholic so I believe they still all practice saying the Jesus Prayer. I know it’s originally an Orthodox Christian Prayer. I’m Roman Catholic and I still like saying the Jesus Prayer often along with the Rosary. It’s a powerful prayer.
Orthodoxy is true! Orthodox had the rosary in the 800s it's: hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, theotokos, virgin, blessed are thou amoung women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, for thou has born the saviour of our souls.
I have been a Byzantine-Ruthenian Catholic from the day of my Baptism, and I am so grateful to God and my parents for bringing me up in the Eastern tradition. It is the closest thing to what Christianity was in the early church, and it and the Jesus prayer continues to fulfill my life every single day. Mnohaja l'ita!
Could not get my blood pressure under 169/110. Most times it was at the 188/118. Once I received my prayer rope and constantly recited this prayer my BP is now 114/77. Praise the Lord.
I'm certainly glad you're feeling better. But reciting a spell definitely has nothing to do with it. Magic is not real and you should go see a doctor if you have any problems.

@@SalveRegina28384BlessedArtThou But the prayer is generally associated with Eastern Orthodox Christians. That must be why he sent his blessing to them.
You don't practise Hinduism, right? I ask because syncretising Christianity with Hinduism would be very dangerous for your soul. Jesus is the only way to the Father as He Himself said in the Bible and there is only one God. . God bless you!
I'm a Greek Orthodox and I can't even begin to tell you the benefits of praying this constantly. A little advice though; At first it's not going to be easy because you're going to be distracted constantly. For instance when saying the prayer over and over again with your prayer rope, you should erase all secular thoughts from your nous [mind]. Trust me you'll see how hard that is in the beginning, especially when you reach a certain number, Satan will do his best to distract your concentration. Nevertheless stay with it and trust me you'll see how beneficial it truly is. God love you all.
@Colin Sheehan well one is the negative way (see apophatic theology) and the other is the positive way; both are valid and effective, and both are approved by East and West alike, although the positive way was always more in line with the Latins and the negative way with the Greeks. Orthodox converts tend to be snobs in relation to Catholicism but what I find most interesting in most cases is that they don't understand the practices revealed to medieval Saints and developed in the Western church in general; you must understand that the most Orthodox way, strictly speaking, is the positive way, since it's derived directly from the Bible, which is structured according to positive theology, while the negative way was something developed along the lines of earlier, more foreign traditions. More concerning the Marian Rosary, it contains mysteries and effects that the median adherent doesn't have the least idea about, and it is rather difficult and rare to get to advanced levels of praying and understanding the Rosary. Not to be offensive, but judging by the way you speak of it (and also by the fact that you're converting to ortodoxy), I imagine you have not the least idea about what the Rosary really conceals within itself. If I can give you an advice, I'd say that, as a Catholic, I don't mind traditional Orthodox Christians from orthodox countries being orthodox, since I recognize there is real, authentic spirituality in the Orthodox Church (even if we disagree institutionally), something it preserved better than the Latins, however, usually when I encounter westerners, Catholics, converting to ortodoxy, most of the times, it is wrong and damaging psychological causes that motivate it, as well as a severe lack of understanding of Catholic doctrine and spirituality in general (while being true that we didn't preserve our spirituality as well, Catholic Tradition and spirituality was vivid and as strong as it gets up until the end of the middle ages, and what we inherited from those times can still be practiced in the West, just like in the East, since in a deeper level there are really not many differences - if any - between the two).

S. Zúñiga What are prayer beads? Is it okay to use beads while praying? Prayer beads, sometimes called rosary beads, are used in the practice of meditation and prayer. Prayers are repeated a number of times corresponding with the number of beads. Prayer or rosary beads have traditionally been associated with Catholicism, but the use of prayer beads is widespread, with many religious traditions incorporating them. The basic rosary is made up of 59 beads linked together in a shape that looks like a necklace. Each of the beads on the rosary is intended to have a prayer said while holding the individual bead. Of these beads, 53 are for “Hail Mary’s” to be said on them. The other six are intended for “Our Fathers.” These beads provide a physical method of keeping count of the prayers as the fingers are moved along the beads as the prayers are recited. The history of the rosary in Christian circles has been traced back to the Crusades. It is thought by historians that the Crusaders had adopted this practice from the Arabs, who, in turn, copied the observance of using beads from India. Recent archeological findings reveal that the ancient Ephesians made use of such beads in their worship of Diana, also known as Artemis, whose temple was one of the seven wonders of the world (Acts 19:24-41). Prayer beads are also used by Roman Catholics to help the practitioner keep track of some 180 prayers which make up the rosary. Examples of such prayers are Our Father, Hail Mary, and Gloria. The practice of the rosary is based on the assumption that repeating these prayers over and over enables the petitioner to secure merit or favor from God in order to escape from the punishment of the fires of purgatory. The use of prayer beads is not scriptural. Jesus Himself chastised the religious leaders of His time for repeating their prayers over and over. In fact, He told His disciples not to emulate them by using “vain repetitions as the heathen do, for they think they will be heard for their many words” (Matthew 6:7). Prayers are not to be merely recited or repeated mindlessly as though they are automatic formulas. Many who use prayer beads today claim that the rosary helps them take the focus off themselves and onto Christ, but the question is really one of the efficacy of repeating the same phrases over and over in a mantra-like manner. Prayer is an incredible privilege for the Christian, as we are invited by the Creator of the universe to come “boldly” into His presence (Hebrews 4:16) and communicate with Him. Prayer is the means by which we praise Him, adore Him, give thanks to Him, submit to Him, and bring before Him petitions for ourselves and intercessions for others. It’s hard to see how that intimate communion with Him is enhanced by repeating simple prayers over and over again via prayer beads.
"It's a lot more difficult to sin when you're in constant communication with the lord". Wow that totally makes sense. I know it might be obvious to some people but I never really saw it that way until he said that. Interesting point.
I want to get a crucifix necklace for a similar reason. I wouldn’t be able to sin or speak/behave carelessly while wearing the cross of my Lord. It’s a constant reminder as to what I’m representing, who I’m serving, what I ought to be doing.

When I said this prayer while falling asleep i noticed a slowing of breath which ideally calmed me down and relaxed me body, I was sore after a gym workout and I woke up saying this prayer in my conscious i don't have any soreness left now, needless to say I slept like a baby. Thank you Jesus
My mom always said "Senor Jesus, ten misericordia de mi" several times a day, for no reason. I remember hearing that a lot in my childhood, and as an adult I adopted it unconciously. Unbeknownst to me, I have pretty much been saying this prayer for a long time!
When my aunt was newly converted to catholic, she did not know about prayer. Jesus would teach her in her dream about the Jesus prayer and he wanted her to say about 500 times a day.
The Orthodox monastic cell rule requires the prayer to be said 500 times a day. It's a well established tradition. Your aunt's dream seems to have good precedents. Remarkable.
@@truthdisciple9379 There are other forms of Catholicism that are not Roman. The Eastern variants use the Jesus Prayer. I am Orthodox since birth. Peace.
I use a rosary as well. Today I did not interject the Our Father between the ten beads and continued straight to the end. Something fantastic happened. Twice. I was gone in time and space and was at the end in no time. I thought I had made a mistake and "re prayed" the rosary, thinking I had gone in reverse inadvertently only to find out that the same thing happened again!
Being a non catholic, I am praying that prayer, I actually heard the Holy Spirit speak to me this morning telling me to pray something that has been affecting our home.. and I thanked Him and prayed it.. it lifted the atmosphere substancially
@@thelambofgod8027 It is not the repetition that is condemned but the vanity, tell me how saying "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner" is vain? Have a blessed day.

As a Eastern Orthodox Christian, I highly recommend this prayer. It actually humbles you and helps your mind focus on God. It helps you take every thought captive turn them towards God. Gives you more peace because it makes you realize God is with you at all times during your day to day life.
Me and my fiance recently visited Assisi, and on the train there from Florence I had told her about the Jesus Prayer, which she had never heard of, and she immediately fell in love with it. The following day, we visited the Basilica of St. Clare and spent some time in prayer before the Cross of San Damiano, perhaps the most powerful time of prayer either of us had ever experienced. Shortly afterwards we were at a cafe near the old Temple of Minerva and we started talking about our experience before the Cross and discovered that we had both been praying the Jesus Prayer over and over without knowing that the other was doing the same. Again, my fiance had only learned this prayer the day before our visit to Assisi and yet by some strange grace we prayed the same prayer together without knowing it. It was an amazing moment.
I had surgery 2wks ago, as the anesthesiologist told me to take deep breaths in, my last thought was the first half of the Jesus prayer, and when waking from it my first thought was the second half. 🥰
For those of us who are not very keen prayers, this is THE prayer to repeat whenever you are anguished or afraid or whatever the distress you might be going through. It is a powerful prayer!
What can I do during the times I pray this and feel internal rage and anger. So much anger while saying the prayer. I'm crushed feeling this way. I love Jesus. What did I ever do?

I'm an oriental eastern catholic from India. We were tought from the formation period onwards to resite Jesus prayer.

I'm a Presbyterian pastor (retired), and I also love this prayer. I sometimes practice the same breathing pattern as I pray other verses (and paraphrases): "You must increase and I must decrease," "There is no fear in love but perfect love drives out fear," and so on. Thoughts?
I'm getting ready to go to bible college to become a missionary, I am considering getting one of these to deepen my prayer life. I love the idea of going through scriptures in order to meditate on them. I love Galatians 2:20
That prayer was thought to me by my mom and when im denonically attacked in dreams or sleep paralysis this prayer subconsciously came to me and it always gave me relief from demonic oppression.
@@thelambofgod8027 this is not vain repetition for God hears and answers our prayers. When a child constantly says I love you for love of her father, it is repetitive but not in vain.. for the father who knows the love of their child rejoices in the proclamation of that love. He does not scold them for repeating nor does he think it in vain. So too when we put our hearts in prayer and we mean each repetition, it is not in vain. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God. Have mercy on me, a sinner. Amen.
@@thelambofgod8027 I’ve only just learned about this prayer but it doesn’t sit right with me as it seems like some kind of mantra or incantation that has some magic effect by repetition. I try to pray sincerely from the heart and simply repeating the same thing endlessly doesn’t feel like it’s doing that. This is just my subjective opinion though, I’m sure many people will not feel the same

Orthodox here. I'm glad to see Catholics picking up more of our traditions. This one is truly a wonderful little thing. I pray it regularly, usually while lying in bed or commuting somewhere.
I realize this comment is 4 years old; however, I was curious if there are other traditions you think would be really valuable to pick up? I'm basically trying to immerse myself as much as humanly possible, and while I'm starting the Catholic journey, I am very open to adding some Orthodox traditions as well. Although I've grown to enjoy all kinds of prayers, I do tend to really enjoy ritualistic/meditative forms so I've gotten quite into the Rosary, and The Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and definitely plan to get a chotki for the Jesus Prayer. I realize I don't necessarily NEED a physical object to say such a simple prayer; however, I enjoy having these sort of things and it helps me get into it more for some reason, as well is more motivation to do it because it's something im going to pick up and set time for.
I'm Catholic and I pray the Jesus prayer everyday. So much peace. This and Holy Rosary, my source of peace and restoration for everything and anything. Lord Jesus Christ,son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
Just got mine. Brushed up with death a couple times recently. I’ve always known better. But now I’m praying every day all day. Thank You Father in Heaven Your name is Holy, for Your Holy Son Jesus Christ! Please bind up our wounds, heal our bodies, through the Power of Your Holy Spirit, and remove sin that leads to death from every corner of the deepest part of our beings! In Jesus Christ’s name we ask please that You will do this for us. Amen and amen! God be trusted. God be praised!

The words, " have mercy on me a sinner. " as used in the Jesus Prayer or Prayer of the Heart,encompass the Eastern Christian understanding of both the terms 'mercy' and 'sinner'. The prayer in Greek:" Kyrie Ihsou Christe, Yie tou Theou, eleison me ton amartolon." is translated thus: " Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me the sinner. " ( there is no article ' a ' in Greek, so the article 'ton' meaning 'the' is used ). Look at the term 'eleison' - it is derived for the word 'elaio' meaning oil - specifically olive oil, which in ancient times was used for healing. So, when we say 'eleison me' or 'have mercy on me' we are actually asking God ( Jesus Christ ) to heal us spiritually, physically and emotionally. The English words ' have mercy on me ' evoke the idea that we are asking God to spare us from His wrath. The term for sin in Greek is 'amartia ' which is a compound of 'a' = away from + 'martia' = the mark. It is an archery term. Envision an archer drawing back the bow string and letting his arrow fly - he is trying to hit the bull's eye, but often 'misses the mark'. We as sinners attempt to follow God's laws but often 'miss the mark', therefore we continue to practice good marksmanship, knowing that we'll never hit the bull's eye 100% of the time. So when we pray ' eleison me ton amartolon' we are in essence asking the Lord to heal us of our shortcomings, our failure to hit the mark consistently. The English term 'sin' is derived from the Latin word 'sona' which means 'guilt'. In Western Christianity the attitude of sin and guilt are entwined. The word sin denotes a state of being where we are always in search of forgiveness for things we do that make us feel 'guilty'. There is quite a contrast in point of view between East and West when the Jesus Prayer is practiced in accordance with how certain terms are understood in their original sense.
izamalaca - You are welcome. My own experience with this prayer over a 30 year period has resulted in a sense of inner peace and improved attitude in all matters.
'missing the mark' what is the mark- God's laws? i think that the mark is rather feeling and behaving like a 'thing' separate from God= living as an 'ego'. There is no room for me and God- it is either mammon or God that one chooses to follow. Mammon means allowing oneself to live driven by fear and desire despite Jesus's clear direction to live without worry for the body ["... look at the birds of the air..."]. Isn't this the law rather?! So missing the mark to me is believing that God is present in all his creation but me= the sinner/the one who misses the mark- how is that possible?! To stop sinning is to allow the grace and will of God to take precedence over 'my will', to allow all that is transitory to follow its course of coming and going without resisting/judging, permanently conscious that there is only God and God's will- manifesting in all and any happenings. The request for mercy is not asking to spare us of any wrath but for grace in remembering the error made in believing that I am this body, separate from God and that I need to defend it and take action in fixing what in my sinful thinking consider God's shortcomings by 'allowing the world to spin' in a different direction than the one I want.
daisilui - Yes, God's continual outpouring of grace heals our wounds ( spiritual, emotional, physical ). The oil of compassion and healing ( grace ) is that applied by the Good Samaritan ( Christ ) upon the wounds of the man ' beaten and half dead ' on the road from Jericho to Jerusalem ( we sinners ). The words ' eleison me ' in Greek = ' have mercy on me ' in English. The term ' eleison ' is rooted in the Greek word for 'oil'. However, each of us must be open to the grace ( medicine ) that is offered by the Great Physician . No palliative effect will ensue if we refuse to take that which is prescribed. LORD JESUS CHRIST, SON OF GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME THE SINNER.

Hi Matt! I'm Byzantine Catholic and while I've heard of the Jesus Prayer, I've never really heard it discussed in my parish or have even seen someone do it. I am going to have to change that and incorporate it in my own life. I'm glad your wife is ok! God bless!
Jennifer Rinaldi Hi there! I'm Greek Orthodox and converting to Catholicism, could you give me some information as to why you are practicing the Byzantine Rite, and how one could look further into it?
Hi Damian! I was actually baptized Roman Catholic but came to the Byzantine Rite from the age of 4 as it was the Rite my mom was raised in. The Byzantine Rite has a website: byzcath.org. It's a good place to start for information. The website also has a listing of all the churches in US I believe. If you do find a church in your area, its always a good place to go to talk to the priest there. Most in my experience are loaded with information and love to share. I hope that helps for start. If you have any other questions, I'll gladly answer what I can.
Jennifer Rinaldi Thank you, Jennifer, for responding! I have read up on the Byzantine Rite, since I believe in the Catholic teachings, but I grew up Greek Orthodox in Greece my whole life. I'm going to University in Germany and as far as I know, there are no Byzantine Catholic Churches there. I'm currently in Greece and there's only one Byzantine Church here. Haven't visited it yet, though. I was asking, because the only reason I could see someone joining the Byzantine Rite is if someone agrees with Catholic Theology, but prefers the Eastern aesthetic. Is there any other reason I don't know of? Why did your mother join it? Why are you still part of it?
Damian My grandparents were a mixed Rite couple; my grandmother was Roman Catholic and my grandfather was Byzantine. At the time, my grandmother was told she had to follow his Rite. In turn my mom and her siblings were raised here in NJ at our parish here. After my parents divorce we moved here and started attending her church that she grew up in. I still belong to my parish as it's what I'm most used to but I also attend Mass sometimes at the local Roman parish. What I enjoy about the Byzantine Rite are the traditions.
Jennifer Rinaldi Ahh thanks, that cleared things up. I will definitely look into it. And thank you again for you response. Have a nice day and God bless you!
kyrie eleison is the shortest prayer and you can pray it all the time! a rosary is necessary only in the beginning like a motor,after short time our mind and heart will pray automatically! you can pray it mentally all the day long if you are very busy and you dont have freetime to pray. important is to be concentrated in every word and not only to babble the prayer. is easy because is a short prayer but has power! the man on this video explain it very good how to control your breath. it really helps!
Being an Eastern Byzantine Catholic, this prayer has been an active part of my life for many many years, and it and Jesus continue to change my life every single day.

This is definitely one of those things that does keep your mind on Jesus all the time and grows your communion with Him. While it does not have any of the same graces and promises that the rosary has (you should totally pray your rosary at least once a day), this is something that is really beautiful in its simplicity. So glad to see a western Catholic channel touch on this practice from the east that we should incorporate more often into our lives!
That is the essential prayer you never get enough of. Once your fingers touch the knot, it starts flowing. I'm so glad roman Catholic people practice it too. Keep up the good work, and always have Jesus our lord in front of you and his name on your lips. God bless!
As a former practicing Mahayana Buddhist, this is such a blessing to me. The need for that mantra like thing has been so high for me lately as I constantly battle to stay on my faith path... thanks
@@noahpadme2494 Hi Noah Thanks for your message... I'm still walking the Christian path and not a single regret. I feel the same, mantras were more about detachment, Christianity is about a deep loving attachment. It fufills me and energises me God bless you
Former Buddhists/Hindu also. Millions of repetitions probably crossed my lips. The Jesus' prayer has done what no mantra can do. Glory be to Jesus Christ, Son of The Living God.
I was introduced to the Jesus Prayer while on pilgrimage recently walking the Camino de Santiago. An absolutely beautiful and powerful emotional experience. Most mornings, I prayed the standard Catholic Rosary. I also enjoy The Devine Mercy Chaplet. But the Jesus Prayer hit me in a whole new way. Vivat Jesus!
Greetings from Singapore - thank you for sharing this pc! i was just searching on this prayer as i'm currently journeying with a catechumen in rcia. i pray the rosary and this will be def. a prayer i will incorporate into my evening prayers! God bless you and ur family!
You can also simplify the whole thing and just pray the name of Jesus, over and over again. That's how I do it. I found that saying the whole traditional prayer gets my brain lost and my mind wandering. Just praying the name of Jesus, slowly and with my breath, is more than enough. I can pray His name in adoration, in supplication, in repentance, etc.
Being Italian, I like to use this prayer in Latin too: “Domine Iesu Christe, fili Dei, miserēre mei peccatoris”.. And for our Eastern fellows it may sound more familiar in Greek: Κύριε Ιησού Χριστέ, Υιέ του Θεού, ελέησόν με τον αμαρτωλόν..
A priest I knew would say, “Lord Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me a sinner.” I love that you gave just “Son of God” as a breath control. I will use your shorter version. Blessings from Boston, Massachusetts
Its great to see my fellow Roman Catholic friends join in in this beautiful Prayer! I recently started praying this just after praying the traditional RC Rosary. It definitely brings your prayyer life to another level!
Great video, thanks! I recommend trying out the latin version, 3x33 times in the morning and evening. it’s the most powerful thing in the world: Jesu Christe, Fili Dei, Domine, miserere mei peccatoris
I'm not Catholic, yet. Don't have a rosary. After having a divine break through of repentance this past week, I've been drawn to watch a lot of Catholic based videos on UA-cam where I came across this video. Wanting a deeper connection to our Savior, I went to my room to say this prayer. Because I don't have a rosary, I opted to set a timer for ten minutes believing my unpracticed mind would grow tired within five. I committed to not looking at the timer, instead focused on what I was saying and how I felt speaking each word. I was shocked when the alarm went off.

This is beautiful! I prayed this throughout the day today and it helped tremendously during moments of frustration and discomfort (37 weeks pregnant in Texas summer is no joke!) I will be praying this during labor for sure :)
I know this already God knows since when. It's also mentioned in a Christianity related novel called "A Russian Traveller's Memories". I did, it works 1 billion percent. After some time you drop the beads, because it will always and continuously be repeated by you automatically. And yes it changes your life so freaking much. Couple of days later, you will see the spiritual and psychological relief. P. S: I'm happy that someone finally mentioned it on UA-cam.
This is very interesting. I've never heard of this prayer, but I have been making a point of praying the Chaplet of Mercy and reading the Divine Office as much as possible. I've also been practicing saying my Rosary while I do mundane tasks around the house by simply keeping track of the prayers on my fingers. I have also noticed that on the days when I say the Divine Office before bed I actually dream the words of the Mass and I often wake up with the Gloria in my mind....many times I just wake up singing or humming the Gloria or other prayers of the Mass. The more immersed you become in prayer the more it just finds its way in between your day as you walk...almost like if you listen to music on the radio and get a particular song stuck in your head. Turns out whatever you put in your head....even prayer, percolates in there and comes out throughout the day whether you realize it or not, which kind of blew my mind and made me extra aware of what I choose to do with my time!
So, sincere and prayerfilled: "Lord Jesus, son of God, have mercy on my a sinner". I'm sure you know this, but the Phrase you refer to: 16) Rejoice always, 17) pray without ceasing, 18) give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Thesalonians. I just found your page, I greatly look forward to more of your INSPIRATIONS. Sincere prayers to you and your family. THANKS MUCHLY =)
I pray this beautiful jesus prayer daily unceasingly early in the morning at 3,30 A.M...attached my self with my loving lord Jesus with deep love.I love this prayer..
'The Jesus Prayer' is one of my favorite prayers. I once saw a documentary about it & in the course of the documentary they interviewed several Orthodox nuns & monks. Everything they said about God/Christ and Christianity seemed SO profound & resonated deeply with me. So deeply, in fact, that I converted to Orthodox Christianity. It still astounds me to this day the fulfillment & blessings the Orthodox faith & the closeness with God has brought into my life.
Dear brother thank you for your message im Catholic and a born again Christian and haven't heard this prayer before love to you and all Christian brothers and sisters from Maria in Birmingham in the UK 😘😊💒📯🌎🐕🐎🛄🇬🇧🎆🎇🔔📣
But a state of being can be, ...In ALL your ways acknowledge Him..& I believe that this can be a way to be in a state of prayerfulness ALL day, & also maintain a spirit of thankfulness when you pray... Amen ...a fulfilling prayer life is just moments away... ALL Glory & praise to You Lord Jesus, The Christ !!!
I'm Christian orthodox, and this is so familiar to me, thanks for reminding me that, this is my prayer, this is my way to connect to my Creator. Respect! Amin!
"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God. Have mercy upon me, a sinner."
the Jesus prayer is one of the holiest prayers you can pray! it makes me happy seeing a catholic finally embrace a tradition from the East!
I would love to be more in touch with it, sadly in Latin America Eastern tradition doesn't make many apparitions, I am from Nicaragua and lived in Honduras and have never met any practicing Orthodox nor any Eastern Rite Catholics. The only one is a cousin her dad is Orthodox I think and she went to Orthodox church while living in Palestine, but she claims herself as Catholic. Such a shame it's not deep in our culture since even some catholics have gone away from their catholic rites, I have always loved the serenity that comes to the soul with Eastern liturgy at least from the few videos I have watched. No churches, no people no Eastern very sad.
Shalom aleihem.
He’s Eastern-rite Catholic so I believe they still all practice saying the Jesus Prayer. I know it’s originally an Orthodox Christian Prayer. I’m Roman Catholic and I still like saying the Jesus Prayer often along with the Rosary. It’s a powerful prayer.
Orthodoxy is true! Orthodox had the rosary in the 800s it's: hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, theotokos, virgin, blessed are thou amoung women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, for thou has born the saviour of our souls.
I have been a Byzantine-Ruthenian Catholic from the day of my Baptism, and I am so grateful to God and my parents for bringing me up in the Eastern tradition. It is the closest thing to what Christianity was in the early church, and it and the Jesus prayer continues to fulfill my life every single day. Mnohaja l'ita!

@@laziszczotkus8672you west don’t understand what living in a plural context is….. there’s nothing wrong in yoga and Hindu practices. That’s ok.
I'm a Greek Orthodox and I can't even begin to tell you the benefits of praying this constantly. A little advice though; At first it's not going to be easy because you're going to be distracted constantly. For instance when saying the prayer over and over again with your prayer rope, you should erase all secular thoughts from your nous [mind]. Trust me you'll see how hard that is in the beginning, especially when you reach a certain number, Satan will do his best to distract your concentration. Nevertheless stay with it and trust me you'll see how beneficial it truly is. God love you all.
@Colin Sheehan well one is the negative way (see apophatic theology) and the other is the positive way; both are valid and effective, and both are approved by East and West alike, although the positive way was always more in line with the Latins and the negative way with the Greeks. Orthodox converts tend to be snobs in relation to Catholicism but what I find most interesting in most cases is that they don't understand the practices revealed to medieval Saints and developed in the Western church in general; you must understand that the most Orthodox way, strictly speaking, is the positive way, since it's derived directly from the Bible, which is structured according to positive theology, while the negative way was something developed along the lines of earlier, more foreign traditions. More concerning the Marian Rosary, it contains mysteries and effects that the median adherent doesn't have the least idea about, and it is rather difficult and rare to get to advanced levels of praying and understanding the Rosary. Not to be offensive, but judging by the way you speak of it (and also by the fact that you're converting to ortodoxy), I imagine you have not the least idea about what the Rosary really conceals within itself. If I can give you an advice, I'd say that, as a Catholic, I don't mind traditional Orthodox Christians from orthodox countries being orthodox, since I recognize there is real, authentic spirituality in the Orthodox Church (even if we disagree institutionally), something it preserved better than the Latins, however, usually when I encounter westerners, Catholics, converting to ortodoxy, most of the times, it is wrong and damaging psychological causes that motivate it, as well as a severe lack of understanding of Catholic doctrine and spirituality in general (while being true that we didn't preserve our spirituality as well, Catholic Tradition and spirituality was vivid and as strong as it gets up until the end of the middle ages, and what we inherited from those times can still be practiced in the West, just like in the East, since in a deeper level there are really not many differences - if any - between the two).

S. Zúñiga What are prayer beads? Is it okay to use beads while praying?
Prayer beads, sometimes called rosary beads, are used in the practice of meditation and prayer. Prayers are repeated a number of times corresponding with the number of beads. Prayer or rosary beads have traditionally been associated with Catholicism, but the use of prayer beads is widespread, with many religious traditions incorporating them.
The basic rosary is made up of 59 beads linked together in a shape that looks like a necklace. Each of the beads on the rosary is intended to have a prayer said while holding the individual bead. Of these beads, 53 are for “Hail Mary’s” to be said on them. The other six are intended for “Our Fathers.” These beads provide a physical method of keeping count of the prayers as the fingers are moved along the beads as the prayers are recited.
The history of the rosary in Christian circles has been traced back to the Crusades. It is thought by historians that the Crusaders had adopted this practice from the Arabs, who, in turn, copied the observance of using beads from India. Recent archeological findings reveal that the ancient Ephesians made use of such beads in their worship of Diana, also known as Artemis, whose temple was one of the seven wonders of the world (Acts 19:24-41).
Prayer beads are also used by Roman Catholics to help the practitioner keep track of some 180 prayers which make up the rosary. Examples of such prayers are Our Father, Hail Mary, and Gloria. The practice of the rosary is based on the assumption that repeating these prayers over and over enables the petitioner to secure merit or favor from God in order to escape from the punishment of the fires of purgatory.
The use of prayer beads is not scriptural. Jesus Himself chastised the religious leaders of His time for repeating their prayers over and over. In fact, He told His disciples not to emulate them by using “vain repetitions as the heathen do, for they think they will be heard for their many words” (Matthew 6:7). Prayers are not to be merely recited or repeated mindlessly as though they are automatic formulas. Many who use prayer beads today claim that the rosary helps them take the focus off themselves and onto Christ, but the question is really one of the efficacy of repeating the same phrases over and over in a mantra-like manner.
Prayer is an incredible privilege for the Christian, as we are invited by the Creator of the universe to come “boldly” into His presence (Hebrews 4:16) and communicate with Him. Prayer is the means by which we praise Him, adore Him, give thanks to Him, submit to Him, and bring before Him petitions for ourselves and intercessions for others. It’s hard to see how that intimate communion with Him is enhanced by repeating simple prayers over and over again via prayer beads.
When you get the Chotki do you stretch it out?
I stretched it, I think it's supposed to be
Oh Señor Jesús hijo de Dios ten misericordia de mí que soy un pecador. Translated to spanish I guess would be like that.
"It's a lot more difficult to sin when you're in constant communication with the lord". Wow that totally makes sense. I know it might be obvious to some people but I never really saw it that way until he said that. Interesting point.
I want to get a crucifix necklace for a similar reason. I wouldn’t be able to sin or speak/behave carelessly while wearing the cross of my Lord. It’s a constant reminder as to what I’m representing, who I’m serving, what I ought to be doing.
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do

As a Eastern Orthodox Christian, I highly recommend this prayer. It actually humbles you and helps your mind focus on God. It helps you take every thought captive turn them towards God. Gives you more peace because it makes you realize God is with you at all times during your day to day life.

Lord Jesus Christ Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
Me and my fiance recently visited Assisi, and on the train there from Florence I had told her about the Jesus Prayer, which she had never heard of, and she immediately fell in love with it. The following day, we visited the Basilica of St. Clare and spent some time in prayer before the Cross of San Damiano, perhaps the most powerful time of prayer either of us had ever experienced. Shortly afterwards we were at a cafe near the old Temple of Minerva and we started talking about our experience before the Cross and discovered that we had both been praying the Jesus Prayer over and over without knowing that the other was doing the same. Again, my fiance had only learned this prayer the day before our visit to Assisi and yet by some strange grace we prayed the same prayer together without knowing it. It was an amazing moment.
I had surgery 2wks ago, as the anesthesiologist told me to take deep breaths in, my last thought was the first half of the Jesus prayer, and when waking from it my first thought was the second half. 🥰
For those of us who are not very keen prayers, this is THE prayer to repeat whenever you are anguished or afraid or whatever the distress you might be going through. It is a powerful prayer!
What can I do during the times I pray this and feel internal rage and anger. So much anger while saying the prayer. I'm crushed feeling this way. I love Jesus. What did I ever do?

@@thelambofgod8027 this is not vain repetition for God hears and answers our prayers. When a child constantly says I love you for love of her father, it is repetitive but not in vain.. for the father who knows the love of their child rejoices in the proclamation of that love.

Orthodox here. I'm glad to see Catholics picking up more of our traditions. This one is truly a wonderful little thing. I pray it regularly, usually while lying in bed or commuting somewhere.
I’m Byzantine Catholic and we’ve always had this prayer.The Latin Rite has their Rosary
I realize this comment is 4 years old; however, I was curious if there are other traditions you think would be really valuable to pick up? I'm basically trying to immerse myself as much as humanly possible, and while I'm starting the Catholic journey, I am very open to adding some Orthodox traditions as well. Although I've grown to enjoy all kinds of prayers, I do tend to really enjoy ritualistic/meditative forms so I've gotten quite into the Rosary, and The Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and definitely plan to get a chotki for the Jesus Prayer. I realize I don't necessarily NEED a physical object to say such a simple prayer; however, I enjoy having these sort of things and it helps me get into it more for some reason, as well is more motivation to do it because it's something im going to pick up and set time for.
I'm Catholic and I pray the Jesus prayer everyday. So much peace.

The words, " have mercy on me a sinner. " as used in the Jesus Prayer or Prayer of the Heart,encompass the Eastern Christian understanding of both the terms 'mercy' and 'sinner'. The prayer in Greek:" Kyrie Ihsou Christe, Yie tou Theou, eleison me ton amartolon." is translated thus: " Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me the sinner. " ( there is no article ' a ' in Greek, so the article 'ton' meaning 'the' is used ). Look at the term 'eleison' - it is derived for the word 'elaio' meaning oil - specifically olive oil, which in ancient times was used for healing. So, when we say 'eleison me' or 'have mercy on me' we are actually asking God ( Jesus Christ ) to heal us spiritually, physically and emotionally. The English words ' have mercy on me ' evoke the idea that we are asking God to spare us from His wrath. The term for sin in Greek is 'amartia ' which is a compound of 'a' = away from + 'martia' = the mark. It is an archery term. Envision an archer drawing back the bow string and letting his arrow fly - he is trying to hit the bull's eye, but often 'misses the mark'. We as sinners attempt to follow God's laws but often 'miss the mark', therefore we continue to practice good marksmanship, knowing that we'll never hit the bull's eye 100% of the time. So when we pray ' eleison me ton amartolon' we are in essence asking the Lord to heal us of our shortcomings, our failure to hit the mark consistently. The English term 'sin' is derived from the Latin word 'sona' which means 'guilt'. In Western Christianity the attitude of sin and guilt are entwined. The word sin denotes a state of being where we are always in search of forgiveness for things we do that make us feel 'guilty'. There is quite a contrast in point of view between East and West when the Jesus Prayer is practiced in accordance with how certain terms are understood in their original sense.
Jay Corby thank you!
izamalaca - You are welcome. My own experience with this prayer over a 30 year period has resulted in a sense of inner peace and improved attitude in all matters.
Thank you for adjusting my aim!
'missing the mark' what is the mark- God's laws? i think that the mark is rather feeling and behaving like a 'thing' separate from God= living as an 'ego'. There is no room for me and God- it is either mammon or God that one chooses to follow. Mammon means allowing oneself to live driven by fear and desire despite Jesus's clear direction to live without worry for the body ["... look at the birds of the air..."]. Isn't this the law rather?! So missing the mark to me is believing that God is present in all his creation but me= the sinner/the one who misses the mark- how is that possible?! To stop sinning is to allow the grace and will of God to take precedence over 'my will', to allow all that is transitory to follow its course of coming and going without resisting/judging, permanently conscious that there is only God and God's will- manifesting in all and any happenings. The request for mercy is not asking to spare us of any wrath but for grace in remembering the error made in believing that I am this body, separate from God and that I need to defend it and take action in fixing what in my sinful thinking consider God's shortcomings by 'allowing the world to spin' in a different direction than the one I want.
daisilui - Yes, God's continual outpouring of grace heals our wounds ( spiritual, emotional, physical ). The oil of compassion and healing ( grace ) is that applied by the Good Samaritan ( Christ ) upon the wounds of the man ' beaten and half dead ' on the road from Jericho to Jerusalem ( we sinners ). The words ' eleison me ' in Greek = ' have mercy on me ' in English. The term ' eleison ' is rooted in the Greek word for 'oil'. However, each of us must be open to the grace ( medicine ) that is offered by the Great Physician . No palliative effect will ensue if we refuse to take that which is prescribed. LORD JESUS CHRIST, SON OF GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME THE SINNER.
Dear Lord, please intercede for the health of Patrick, a young convert with an incurable disease, who is making great contributions in the field of mental health. Pray also for the conversions of my husband John and my children Jacob and Rachel. 🙏🏼✝️❤️🔥
Just started this today. I have asthma, and love love love saying this during my attacks.
Lord have mercy for your health. I am praying for clean air, lung health, and a tobacco-free, etc. world.

But I can't say anything while I'm inhaling :/
@@servus_incognitus haha same ...but I use to do in my heart whenever I lay down on bed or walk..I think prayer is all about just set our mind free from this world nd connect it to the creator
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do
@@thelambofgod8027 pray unceasingly like what Apostle Paul said.

This is what the devil is telling you. Don't trust in your thoughts trust in Jesus.
I have made these with only 33 beads, symbolizing the 33 years of Christ's life. Great way to reuse broken rosaries or any type of beads. My friend knows how to do the knotted ones and that is a great talent and very beautiful prayer rope.
I too have a chotki (Jesus Prayer - prayer rope) as a Roman Catholic this is awesome to have along side a Rosary =) ❤
JuliaMerchant look in the description of the video. There's a link.
pointless, witchcraft.
There's no link now.
Hey, when you get the Chotki, do you stretch it out?
I stretched it, I think it's supposed to be.
Hi Matt! I'm Byzantine Catholic and while I've heard of the Jesus Prayer, I've never really heard it discussed in my parish or have even seen someone do it. I am going to have to change that and incorporate it in my own life. I'm glad your wife is ok! God bless!
Jennifer Rinaldi Hi there! I'm Greek Orthodox and converting to Catholicism, could you give me some information as to why you are practicing the Byzantine Rite, and how one could look further into it?
Hi Damian! I was actually baptized Roman Catholic but came to the Byzantine Rite from the age of 4 as it was the Rite my mom was raised in. The Byzantine Rite has a website: byzcath.org. It's a good place to start for information. The website also has a listing of all the churches in US I believe. If you do find a church in your area, its always a good place to go to talk to the priest there. Most in my experience are loaded with information and love to share. I hope that helps for start. If you have any other questions, I'll gladly answer what I can.
Jennifer Rinaldi Thank you, Jennifer, for responding! I have read up on the Byzantine Rite, since I believe in the Catholic teachings, but I grew up Greek Orthodox in Greece my whole life. I'm going to University in Germany and as far as I know, there are no Byzantine Catholic Churches there. I'm currently in Greece and there's only one Byzantine Church here. Haven't visited it yet, though. I was asking, because the only reason I could see someone joining the Byzantine Rite is if someone agrees with Catholic Theology, but prefers the Eastern aesthetic. Is there any other reason I don't know of? Why did your mother join it? Why are you still part of it?
Damian My grandparents were a mixed Rite couple; my grandmother was Roman Catholic and my grandfather was Byzantine. At the time, my grandmother was told she had to follow his Rite. In turn my mom and her siblings were raised here in NJ at our parish here. After my parents divorce we moved here and started attending her church that she grew up in. I still belong to my parish as it's what I'm most used to but I also attend Mass sometimes at the local Roman parish. What I enjoy about the Byzantine Rite are the traditions.
Jennifer Rinaldi Ahh thanks, that cleared things up. I will definitely look into it. And thank you again for you response. Have a nice day and God bless you!
I say this prayer often and divine mercy prayer 'jesus i trust in you'♡
I used to have psychosis and the Jesus prayer saved me
I use my Rosary with decades 1, 3 and 5 saying Hail Mary's, and decades 2 and 4 as the Jesus Prayers.
Same here.
Thays a great idea, I'm going to try that. Thank you
The Jesus Prayer along with the Holy Rosary and Lectio Divina are the foundations of my prayerful life.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, let me feel your Presence. (pray it all day while doing life's chores etc). After 2 or 3 days .... find out...
kyrie eleison is the shortest prayer and you can pray it all the time! a rosary is necessary only in the beginning like a motor,after short time our mind and heart will pray automatically! you can pray it mentally all the day long if you are very busy and you dont have freetime to pray. important is to be concentrated in every word and not only to babble the prayer. is easy because is a short prayer but has power! the man on this video explain it very good how to control your breath. it really helps!
Being an Eastern Byzantine Catholic, this prayer has been an active part of my life for many many years, and it and Jesus continue to change my life every single day.
I’m serious I always come across the right Ascension Presents video at the right time!
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do
@@thelambofgod8027 Amen

This is definitely one of those things that does keep your mind on Jesus all the time and grows your communion with Him. While it does not have any of the same graces and promises that the rosary has (you should totally pray your rosary at least once a day), this is something that is really beautiful in its simplicity. So glad to see a western Catholic channel touch on this practice from the east that we should incorporate more often into our lives!
That is the essential prayer you never get enough of. Once your fingers touch the knot, it starts flowing. I'm so glad roman Catholic people practice it too. Keep up the good work, and always have Jesus our lord in front of you and his name on your lips. God bless!
As a former practicing Mahayana Buddhist, this is such a blessing to me. The need for that mantra like thing has been so high for me lately as I constantly battle to stay on my faith path... thanks
Former Tibetan Buddhist here. No amount of mantras I said had even close to the same power as the Jesus prayer does, God bless you
@@noahpadme2494
Hi Noah
Thanks for your message...
I'm still walking the Christian path and not a single regret.
I feel the same, mantras were more about detachment, Christianity is about a deep loving attachment. It fufills me and energises me
God bless you
Former Buddhists/Hindu also. Millions of repetitions probably crossed my lips. The Jesus' prayer has done what no mantra can do. Glory be to Jesus Christ, Son of The Living God.
I often pray this "Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the living God, you alone are my Lord and saviour."
I was introduced to the Jesus Prayer while on pilgrimage recently walking the Camino de Santiago. An absolutely beautiful and powerful emotional experience. Most mornings, I prayed the standard Catholic Rosary. I also enjoy The Devine Mercy Chaplet. But the Jesus Prayer hit me in a whole new way. Vivat Jesus!
¡Que Viva El Reino de YaHVeH Dios para siempre! ¡Que Viva!
Perfect...
I'm an Eastern catholic
Greetings from Singapore - thank you for sharing this pc! i was just searching on this prayer as i'm currently journeying with a catechumen in rcia. i pray the rosary and this will be def. a prayer i will incorporate into my evening prayers! God bless you and ur family!
You explained this better than my priest did! Thanks!
I’ve revisited this video a few times and have recited the prayer in my own life thanks to it. It has given me peace in Christ.
You can also simplify the whole thing and just pray the name of Jesus, over and over again. That's how I do it. I found that saying the whole traditional prayer gets my brain lost and my mind wandering. Just praying the name of Jesus, slowly and with my breath, is more than enough. I can pray His name in adoration, in supplication, in repentance, etc.
Being Italian, I like to use this prayer in Latin too: “Domine Iesu Christe, fili Dei, miserēre mei peccatoris”.. And for our Eastern fellows it may sound more familiar in Greek: Κύριε Ιησού Χριστέ, Υιέ του Θεού, ελέησόν με τον αμαρτωλόν..
Thank you for this.
I do it in Latin.
The more I live the more I find out how similar romanian and latin are
thank you for the Latin translation!
Thanks for sharing the Latin version. There’s solemnity whenever I pray in Latin.
Herre Jesus Kristus, Guds son. Förbarma dej över mej, syndare. In swedish! God bless you all and much love from Sweden 🇸🇪 💟☦️💟
I have battled mental health for years, and I’m a suicide survivor. Praying this prayer with the breathing is like medication and meditation.
same here my friend. My Christian psychologist actually taught it to me. Very helpful indeed.
A priest I knew would say, “Lord Jesus, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me a sinner.”
I love that you gave just “Son of God” as a breath control.
I will use your shorter version. Blessings from Boston, Massachusetts
I remember this. A priest confessor taught me this short prayer. "Jesus have mercy on me, a sinner." God bless, Proverbs 31
Glory To The Triune GOD
Lord Jesus Christ Son of God.Hve mercy on me a sinner.❤️🌹🙏🏻😇👼🏼👼🏼👼🏼👼🏼👼🏼👼🏼
Its great to see my fellow Roman Catholic friends join in in this beautiful Prayer! I recently started praying this just after praying the traditional RC Rosary. It definitely brings your prayyer life to another level!
So beautiful. Always love learning about the deeply committed life of the Church Fathers.
I believe this is good for every type of Christian, not only Orthodox or Catholic.
Great video, thanks! I recommend trying out the latin version, 3x33 times in the morning and evening. it’s the most powerful thing in the world: Jesu Christe, Fili Dei, Domine, miserere mei peccatoris
I'm not Catholic, yet. Don't have a rosary. After having a divine break through of repentance this past week, I've been drawn to watch a lot of Catholic based videos on UA-cam where I came across this video.
Wanting a deeper connection to our Savior, I went to my room to say this prayer. Because I don't have a rosary, I opted to set a timer for ten minutes believing my unpracticed mind would grow tired within five. I committed to not looking at the timer, instead focused on what I was saying and how I felt speaking each word.
I was shocked when the alarm went off. Did not feel like I'd been on my knees that long. I don't what to think about that.
Fr. Henri Nouwen’s book inspired me about the Jesus Prayer. It says this prayer can make the soul more sweet and serene.
That's the medicine I need :3 I want to be more sweet and would need a lot a of serenity from God to make me stay calm. Please Lord, have mercy on me.

This is beautiful! I prayed this throughout the day today and it helped tremendously during moments of frustration and discomfort (37 weeks pregnant in Texas summer is no joke!) I will be praying this during labor for sure :)
Hope everything went Well three years ago? :) With the Helpof the Jesus prayer? Many Congratulations!!
It’s Gods love towards us that gives us everything; but the richest of his gifts is that we may love Him with the love which is his due.
I know this already God knows since when. It's also mentioned in a Christianity related novel called "A Russian Traveller's Memories". I did, it works 1 billion percent. After some time you drop the beads, because it will always and continuously be repeated by you automatically. And yes it changes your life so freaking much. Couple of days later, you will see the spiritual and psychological relief.
P. S: I'm happy that someone finally mentioned it on UA-cam.
Yesssss. This great little book is available on line and audio. « The Way of a Pilgrim
I absolutely loved this.
Thank you.
-Your Orthodox brother in Christ.
Beautiful. God bless you Matt and all my brothers and sisters in Christ 🙏
When you have a strong faith that god sits in his name , the prayer becomes stronger
“Into the Silent Land” is a great book on the Jesus prayer.
I'm Eastern Orthodox and this prayer is great, but one must REALLY mean it
This is very interesting. I've never heard of this prayer, but I have been making a point of praying the Chaplet of Mercy and reading the Divine Office as much as possible. I've also been practicing saying my Rosary while I do mundane tasks around the house by simply keeping track of the prayers on my fingers. I have also noticed that on the days when I say the Divine Office before bed I actually dream the words of the Mass and I often wake up with the Gloria in my mind....many times I just wake up singing or humming the Gloria or other prayers of the Mass. The more immersed you become in prayer the more it just finds its way in between your day as you walk...almost like if you listen to music on the radio and get a particular song stuck in your head. Turns out whatever you put in your head....even prayer, percolates in there and comes out throughout the day whether you realize it or not, which kind of blew my mind and made me extra aware of what I choose to do with my time!
So, sincere and prayerfilled: "Lord Jesus, son of God, have mercy on my a sinner". I'm sure you know this, but the Phrase you refer to: 16) Rejoice always, 17) pray without ceasing, 18) give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Thesalonians. I just found your page, I greatly look forward to more of your INSPIRATIONS. Sincere prayers to you and your family. THANKS MUCHLY =)
in Jesus Christ's name I pray amen and amen.
I pray this beautiful jesus prayer daily unceasingly early in the morning at 3,30 A.M...attached my self with my loving lord Jesus with deep love.I love this prayer..
I am catholic, Roman Church, and I love to incorporate the Jesus Prayer in my Rosary. I feel more complete, with the Out Father and Holy Mary. 😄❤️

Κύριε Ιησού Χριστέ ελέησόν μας
Thank you. Please pray for my parents. Especially my dad, he is on the wrong ways
'The Jesus Prayer' is one of my favorite prayers. I once saw a documentary about it & in the course of the documentary they interviewed several Orthodox nuns & monks. Everything they said about God/Christ and Christianity seemed SO profound & resonated deeply with me. So deeply, in fact, that I converted to Orthodox Christianity. It still astounds me to this day the fulfillment & blessings the Orthodox faith & the closeness with God has brought into my life.
Solemn Good Friday Everyone! Lord Jesus, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
Dear brother thank you for your message im Catholic and a born again Christian and haven't heard this prayer before love to you and all Christian brothers and sisters from Maria in Birmingham in the UK 😘😊💒📯🌎🐕🐎🛄🇬🇧🎆🎇🔔📣
Catholics ARE born again.We are born again in our baptism
Such a beautiful description! Orthodoxy Unites beautiful souls as if we knew each other for a long long time! 😇😍
But a state of being can be, ...In ALL your ways acknowledge Him..& I believe that this can be a way to be in a state of prayerfulness ALL day, & also maintain a spirit of thankfulness when you pray... Amen ...a fulfilling prayer life is just moments away... ALL Glory & praise to You Lord Jesus, The Christ !!!
The Jesus prayer is incredible, I needed to hear this brother.
I recently learned this from Anglican Father. It's really helped with anxiety and troubling thoughts
I am so happy you made a video on this Eastern treasure! I love the Jesus Prayer!
I'm Christian orthodox, and this is so familiar to me, thanks for reminding me that, this is my prayer, this is my way to connect to my Creator. Respect!
Amin!
