2019-10-16 07:45:52 UTC  

Shut up prot

2019-10-16 07:45:53 UTC  

Orthobros rise up

2019-10-16 07:46:04 UTC  

Anyone have their own prayers that they recite

2019-10-16 07:46:43 UTC  

Nope

2019-10-16 07:46:58 UTC  

I have a mantra I use whenever I feel uncertain, "Christ be with me, be near me, protect me, and guide me"

2019-10-16 07:46:59 UTC  

I've started doing the orthodox prayer rope daily, jesus prayer is a lot easier to do at work

2019-10-16 07:47:12 UTC  

Well, the Fatima prayer starts with "Oh my Jesus"

2019-10-16 07:47:20 UTC  

That's the St. Patrick chaplet isn't it @kgoodsir99 ?

2019-10-16 07:47:30 UTC  

No I made it myself

2019-10-16 07:47:57 UTC  

If it resembles something that already exists that'd be kind of cool

2019-10-16 07:48:03 UTC  

I think the St. Patrick's Breastplate is what it's called actually, very similar

2019-10-16 07:48:13 UTC  

Link?

2019-10-16 07:49:22 UTC  

Ok the one I've seen before is only an excerpt I guess, it's way longer

2019-10-16 07:50:27 UTC  

Got my favourite line already

I hate the feeling of stagnation

2019-10-16 07:52:22 UTC  

That's what I feel like I've been going lately

2019-10-16 07:53:01 UTC  

Honestly though, I'm stunned by the difference getting into the Jesus prayer makes, it really is something powerful. Like, being mindful that it isn't a mantra, and meditating on it, I'll commit to saying it some number of times and count it on my fingers and it's been doing a lot for me, just being mindful of the power of the name of Jesus and His mercy

2019-10-16 07:53:06 UTC  

I've been doing daily rosaries for about six months now, and I've all but beaten my problems with chastity, but now I'm not sure how to progress

>worshipping senses

2019-10-16 07:55:23 UTC  

@kgoodsir99 improve your understanding of God

2019-10-16 07:55:34 UTC  

And Natural Law

2019-10-16 07:55:40 UTC  

Who's worshiping senses?

2019-10-16 07:55:45 UTC  

Stagnation is a frame of mind. Prayer is a vaccine as much as a cure. You just have to change your frame of reference from your prayers as a means of overcoming something to the joy of the prayer itself

2019-10-16 07:55:56 UTC  

This is Catholic philosophy

2019-10-16 07:56:08 UTC  

You're all wrong

2019-10-16 07:56:11 UTC  

I know the basics

2019-10-16 07:56:27 UTC  

@kgoodsir99 how do you feel you're stagnating? Is it in your faith? Or is it in life?

2019-10-16 07:56:33 UTC  

Both

2019-10-16 07:56:57 UTC  

What is keeping you from moving?

2019-10-16 07:57:04 UTC  

For your faith, I would advise reading to go along with your rosary.

2019-10-16 07:57:07 UTC  

I made huge progress in the former from April - August though

2019-10-16 07:57:13 UTC  

Read something and then meditate on it

2019-10-16 07:57:18 UTC  

@SUPER MALE VITALITY™ Honestly, it's fear

2019-10-16 07:58:15 UTC  

Fear that I'll fall into sin again, that I'll always be a loser, that the world is getting worse, that my family and friends are going to hell, etc

2019-10-16 07:58:42 UTC  

Sounds like you need a healthy dose of faith

2019-10-16 07:58:53 UTC  

Then move, and place all of your faith in the God you've been praying to that's been redeeming you thus far
