Greetings to all the dear priests and respected members,
I am a relatively new Zevist. I have read almost all the articles and have started the Basic Meditation Program.
Before I began following these programs consistently, I used to pray every night and every day and study the articles, so I am not exactly a complete newcomer. In fact, I have been around longer than that, since I first began this path about two years ago using the previous version of the website.
To tell the truth, I love the Gods and truly love them with all my heart. I even composed a song for them today and kept it for myself. However, I need some motivation... more motivation.
1)A few days ago, I recited the Prayer of Protection to Zeus and went to school. My friend had snitched on me to the school principal! I had done something that violated school discipline, but that exact same friend had done the same thing as well. I came home and performed the Prayer of Protection, but even after several days, he still has not been punished for doing the same thing I did, even though he reported me for it!
2)And Today, I found myself in some very stressful and difficult situations, and I felt lonely and unable to perceive Zeus's support.
Was it reasonable for me to expect Zeus to bring the same misfortune upon him or to give me peace of mind during a stressful situation? Or was that expecting more than what should have happened?
As I told you, my dear friends, I am relatively new. How long does it take to receive this kind of help? If enough time passes, will these expectations actually be fulfilled?
How can I tangibly feel that the Gods I love are truly supporting me?
Thank you all for everything. I wish you all a wonderful day!
