Be aware of it rising. Do not think about the words. Just let your attention rest gently on them as they repeat themselves over and over again. Practice the presence of God by placing yourself deliberately before God every day. Praying the Jesus Prayer many times during the day with inner attention to each word will attune us to God.
Scientists test every theory in the laboratory.
So it is with our Christian faith. Let the last words you utter each night be the Jesus Prayer. Fall asleep with these words on your lips. And when you wake in the morning, let the first words you utter be the Jesus Prayer. During the day, whether you are talking, walking, sitting, eating or occupied in some way, repeat the Jesus Prayer, or the name of Jesus.
