our most powerful weapon,
a full confession of faith,
is a short pray.
a full confession of faith,
is a short pray.
being repeated again and again,
trying to pray them constantly,
with our lips, our tongue, our mind,
our lungs, our breath, our heart,
containing the Holy Name of Jesus,
calling Him our Lord,
and asking .... well, for everything,
in a small word, His mercy,
knowing that we do not deserve it,
since we are fallen to sins
Lord
Jesus
Christ
have mercy
on me
a sinner
bit and bit
like a heart bit repeat,
breathing slowly
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy,
hold a while,
realise Whom you are asking from,
and what you are asking for,
and exhale slowly,
have mercy on me a sinner,
realising not just the nothing you are
when placed in front of God,
but admitting as well, how broken and sinful you are
some really blessed people,
our Saints and Holy Fathers,
do reach to a point where praying these words,
thinking and feeling those few words,
is more important than their own breathing,
in some holy way,
those words are shouted from their hearts,
every heart bit and a word from that pray,
it is one of the Great Gifts Orthodoxy provides,
from the Holy Spirit,
to just so very few,
but they become our beacons,
our true heroes,
our examples
of what Human united with God
becoming a Saint,
what "Theosis" is.
