I just wanted to share my method for how I stay calm.
It's very simple, I just simply try to not to gulp/swallow.
Except, of course when eating or drinking. Remember
to not try too hard.
I guess we all search for different coping mechanisms when the going gets tough.
In 2011 I had tests done for cancer, about a month later the doctor phoned and said he urgently wanted to see me, it was non – Hodgkin Lymphoma. This was a name I recognised, our friend had this cancer, and died a few months later. Being told I had cancer was out of my hands, there was nothing I could do about it. But I still had choices; I could dictate how the cancer was going to affect my mind and my ability to cope with the news.
A few minutes after putting the phone down; I prayed for the wisdom, strength and peace to do God’s will, whether the cancer was a death sentence, or just an inconvenience. I can only say that from the moment of making this prayer, I have experienced a profound sense of peace that is beyond my understanding, and the thought of cancer has never troubled me for a moment.
Cancer could be a truly worrying process, you wait a month or two for appointments, you wait for the results, and you wait for more appointments. I have never once prayed for healing, at the age of 62, the prayer for healing seemed too complicated, it might or might not be my time to go. Recognising this profound sense of peace comes from God, gives me reason to be thankful.
You will never look into the eyes of anyone who does not matter to God.
Prayers are very important and we should be consistant in them.
Praying to others than God alone is wrong and will often in this world too and in the end get you the opposite results.
There are invisible creatures that interfere with prayers-when they hear for example that you pray to an idol, a demon or a jinn of that religion tries to help you/manifest it with efforts.
