Anxiety And Prayer

Anxiety and prayer

When anxious, which I find to be a very painful inner state, I have also found that it is good for me to simply use that energy as prayer, to sit with it, to offer it, and to let it go. I sink into it knowing that I am one with God and this is my ‘poor’ gift to him. In doing this, things settle down slowly. The energy is not scattered but directed towards the center of the Heart of God. I also join with all who are anxious and pray with them, be with them. Our connections are deeper than we can ever understand. The same can be said for anger or in dealing with sexual energy. It is all the same energy, we just experience it all in different ways and have to deal with it all, or it will deal with us.-Br.MD
