– Invoke the Name of Jesus
“Jesus, stay with me. Jesus, I trust in You.”
Repeat His Name slowly, like a lifeline.
– Find a Safe Position
If you’re standing, sit or lie down safely. Place your
hand over your heart or stomach. Let yourself be
still.
– Use a Short Prayer or Scripture Verse
Choose a comforting phrase:
– “The Lord is my shepherd…”
– “Be still and know that I am God.”
– “Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in
Thee.”
When a Fit Feels Near
– “Jesus, I am weak, but You are strong.”
– Make the Sign of the Cross
Even if only in your heart, mark yourself as
belonging to Christ. You are not alone.
– Breathe with Intention
Try: Inhale: “Come, Holy Spirit”
– Exhale: “Be my peace”
– Offer the Moment
“Lord, if this fit must come, let it come in Your
presence. I give this moment to You. Be with me through it and after it.”
