Focus on Prayer...

I was going thru my e-mail today and found a link to this site. And found it to be helpful not just in focusing on prayer, but also in using these same techniques to calm yourself when you are feeling angry. I have been searching thru the site and found the fact that it talked about the simplest of prayer that exists is in breathing. And that in breathing we are connected to the force of creation and that we breathe in God's light and goodness and when we breathe out we breathe away all the darkness. A new way to think that I might find helpful. And I know I need ways to learn how to begin to trust and the first step is learning to trust God. Well I can trust God to keep me breathing... And am amazed at remembering the connection the we have with the universe simply thru drawing breathe. It is comforting in many ways since I have found it hard to even focus on God at times... And this way I can simply focus on Him just by breathing. And maybe this simple focus will help with the emotions that tend to build up inside of me. And when they do I often am unsure of how to face them... So maybe a simple focus will help me with panic attacks, fear, and even anger. The only way I will know is to try. And I know I need to work on trusting God... So I will take the baby step and work on breathing prayer.
