>not Jesus prayer ganggang
Shut up prot
Orthobros rise up
Anyone have their own prayers that they recite
Nope
I have a mantra I use whenever I feel uncertain, "Christ be with me, be near me, protect me, and guide me"
I've started doing the orthodox prayer rope daily, jesus prayer is a lot easier to do at work
Well, the Fatima prayer starts with "Oh my Jesus"
That's the St. Patrick chaplet isn't it @kgoodsir99 ?
No I made it myself
If it resembles something that already exists that'd be kind of cool
I think the St. Patrick's Breastplate is what it's called actually, very similar
Link?
Ok the one I've seen before is only an excerpt I guess, it's way longer
Got my favourite line already
I hate the feeling of stagnation
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
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
@kgoodsir99 improve your understanding of God
And Natural Law
Who's worshiping senses?
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
This is Catholic philosophy
You're all wrong
I know the basics
@kgoodsir99 how do you feel you're stagnating? Is it in your faith? Or is it in life?
Both
What is keeping you from moving?
For your faith, I would advise reading to go along with your rosary.
I made huge progress in the former from April - August though
Read something and then meditate on it
@SUPER MALE VITALITY™ Honestly, it's fear
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
Sounds like you need a healthy dose of faith
Then move, and place all of your faith in the God you've been praying to that's been redeeming you thus far
