Jesus Prayer

The Jesus Prayer is a short, repetitive prayer rooted in Christian tradition, particularly within Eastern Orthodoxy. It typically goes, “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.” Practitioners use it to focus their mind, foster humility, and deepen spiritual awareness. The prayer encourages ongoing remembrance of Jesus' compassion and serves as a meditative practice to cultivate inner peace, repentance, and connection with God. It’s often repeated silently or aloud during prayer or contemplation, helping believers stay mindful of Jesus’ mercy throughout daily life.
