I'm so thankful to be able to return to these videos regularly when needed. They've had a positive impact on my life.
Pray for me.
A good word, Father, especially for today as many in the west are once again seeing some of their retirement savings and so forth beginning to vanish.
People are drinking MORE due to corona fears, it's heartbreaking.
Anxiety is reflective of an ungodly attachment to something temporal: People, our ideas of them, objects and things. Depend not on anything in this world – or you risk damaging God's image within you. Our eternal needs are paramount and they are only met in God. The farther away we take our minds from Earth, the closer our souls are brought to Heaven.
What a coincidence, I guess I'm meant to see this. I just finished praying and I had the worst panic attack while praying, thought I was having a heart attack, I freaked my family out.
Whoever is suffering the samething, take 30 deep breaths and exhales while doing the Jesus Prayer.
Let's free our mind from thoughts, cause I know my brain is always anxious 24/7 but I'm trying to shut it off and connect with God more.
Pray for me, Anexity/Panic attacks sucks, its the outcome of stress and over thinking.
I wish I can repent maybe it would help a lot.
also here i have to say, if one understands matthew 6:24, "that you cannot serve both god and money" and you come to develoved understanding about what it needs to make the way clear for our brothers and sisters, than you come to more profound understanding of jesus teachings regarding not to care about goods you need. god will care for you
Thanks
He's right. Hollywood and the music industry are evil.
I recently got Christmated in the Orthodox Church and I’m very bless to be part of of St. Paul my new church.
Amen
Amen my brother I love you I love all my brothers and sisters I pray that everyone comes to a Greater Love towards the each other and towards God and blessed peacefulness
Thank you for the video. God bless
Father, I have a question. I have an OCD related issue known as Scrupulosity. My particular problem is that I despair over my salvation every time I think of it, I see I'm not good enough and that I'm a sinner. I cannot find peace because I cannot find assurance that God will save me, all I see are my works, which are few, and this is causing me anxiety.
What can I do? How can I find peace with God? How can I cast this anxiety away from me?
The good kind of anxiety is making me too eager to join the kingdom of God’ need to remember to enjoy the journey there too
I am suffering from crippling anxiety and PTSD. I see now how dependent I am of the things of this world. I just don’t know how to get out of the pain inside of me..
Published 3 years ago, this video is timely. The YouTube Algorithm may know to suggest videos from Fr Spyridon, but Something Else guides the algorithm to choose what shows up at the top of my list when I first open YouTube.
How extraordinary it is to hear these words which reassure us of our Father's limitless love for us! This struggle and fight for our minds and soul is so worth it! Lord help us and have mercy on all of us. Thank you father 🙏
2:49 quote of a saint.
Father, your reflections are always on time. God bless you.
I need prayers.
My past trauma gives me anxiety when I go through hard times.
Father Gods blessings flow through your messages ❤️🙏🏻✝️
STAY BASED

I once had a dream in which I saw Jesus from a distance sitting in the inner court of a temple surrounding by what I think were saints. As I was about to walk away, I heard His voice saying "Guard your eyes". Such a simple yet crucial piece of advice.
Thank you, Father. I was baptized orthodox as a baby. I rejected God for a very long time. I became athiest. I recently came back to the orthodox faith. I’ve dropped many very sinful passions. I now go to liturgy, receive holy confession and communion. However, I’m BOMBARDED with unwanted thoughts daily and it brings me unbearable anxiety. Does God allow me to be able to reject these unwanted thoughts so I can gain inner peace in this spiritual warfare?
How needed and helpful this is especially since the pandemic.
Thank U Father Spyridon for your teaching us how to get rid of Anxiety by focusing on GOD & his Holy Word…… love U & God bless…..
Thankyou for sharing. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
Thank you Father
Wonderful and insightful. Thank you so much Father Spyridon.
