      I just found this and subscribed right away. I'm planning to play all of them for my autistic son, Nektarios. We have a lot of turmoil in our home and this brings a little peace. He's very disruptive sometimes and so he doesn't go to church as much as we like. This is the next best thing. Glory to God

    I listen to this prayer when I feel hopeless. I have a good cry and by the time it’s half way through, I am more calm. By the end, my tears have stopped and I am at peace again. It chases demonic despondency away. Beautiful and life saving. God bless you for sharing and thank you.
