The Jesus prayer is the purest method of treatment, in my opinion, to heal our souls and bodies.
Imagine finding a way to heal from addiction that not only helps you abstain but also brings you closer to a divine presence. In this episode of 'Healing Addictions', Fr. Christophe Lepoutre introduces the Jesus Prayer as a powerful tool for those on their recovery journey. He explains how this simple yet profound prayer can help cultivate a deeper relationship with God, offering practical guidance on its practice under the direction of a Spiritual Father. Fr.
Christophe emphasizes the importance of becoming childlike in our hearts, minds, and bodies before the Lord, suggesting that through the Jesus Prayer, we can soften our hardened hearts and enter into the holy presence of God. The episode also delves into the significance of silence and speech in our spiritual lives, quoting St. Simeon the Theologian's wisdom on entering the silence of our senses to truly experience God's presence.
By coupling this discipline with a focus on the Jesus Prayer, listeners can become more aware of their sins and seek holy confession and communion for their removal. Fr. Christophe's insights offer practical tools for those struggling with addiction, providing a pathway to spiritual growth and a deeper understanding of one's relationship with God.
