Hey everyone, im not on here too often but am going to get more active. Something has been bothering me and id like an opinion. I dedicated back in 2007, i was on my shit, i lived and breathed it and my life had a purpose that i was proud of. Then in 2013 i went to prison and unfortunately i fell off completely, i no longer studied or meditated. I will be honest here and tell you im still off the wagon. My love and belief have never wavered, but iv not meditated or acted in a long time, and its embarrassing to say the least. I feel like i fell from his grace and no longer accepted by the gods for an understandable reason. Iv thought hard, and i beileve my current setback is my own belief that my lack of action during this shitty spell has driven them away. My fault is my fault. What should i do to correct this mindset? I need my faith back and a purpose again. My life has been empty not feeling a connection to them. Has anyone experienced this and overcame? Thank you in advance for any insight.

Functions Of The Mind: Basic Functions and Obstacles In Meditation by HP HoodedCobra
The JoS website doesn’t state anywhere that the Gods will reject you or leave you if you haven’t meditated for awhile. The past doesn’t matter anymore and what’s done is done, what matters is what you’re doing now.
If you’ve wronged someone, follow this sermons advice:
Feeling Sorry? by High Priestess Maxine Dietrich
Your lack of action may mean that you’re lacking earth. How to invoke earth: https://web.archive.org/web/20200317084803/https://www.joyofsatan.org/www.angelfire.com/empire/serpentis666/Invoking_Earth.html
You should use these affirmations in
Satanic Hypnosis to reprogram your mind:
“I am free from punishing myself. I forgive myself.”
High Priestess Maxine Dietrich said:
When one encounters problems and obstacles, one should go to the bottom of this and every night before going to sleep, affirm 20-30 times when relaxed, for example: "I have perfect concentration."
Other affirmations for example- "I am always highly motivated and I always meditate every day", “I always have time to do quality meditations", “I am able to enter deep trances easily" you get the general idea. Remember, affirmations should always be in the present tense because the subconscious mind and soul do not have a time frame such as in the future tense "will" happen. Always make your affirmations in the present tense.
Before sleeping, affirmations should be done some 25-30 times for 40 days straight.
