“St. Joseph the Hesychast and the Jesus Prayer” is the latest episode in our “Chronicles of the Desert” series. In this episode, we learn about the saint’s earliest days on Mount Athos and the numerous ascetics he met in his search to find a spiritual father who could teach him the Jesus Prayer and watchfulness, or inner wakefulness. St. Joseph not only discovered the prayer of the heart but eventually became a great teacher of noetic prayer. His wisdom and practical experience can be found in the collection of his letters, “Monastic Wisdom”, one of the sources for this video. In it, he also recommends the classic book, “The Way of a Pilgrim” as a good starting point for anyone wanting to learn about the Jesus Prayer. This is of course best practiced under the guidance of a spiritual father and within the sacramental life of the church. But for those who pray with humility and sincere repentance, will find themselves more open to the presence of God, as St. Joseph writes:
“God continuously sees you. Why don’t you see Him? Entreat Him and endure your temptations, and your eyes will open to see Him, and then together with Job you will cry out, ‘I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear: but now my eye sees You. Wherefore I abhor myself, and reckon myself as dust and ashes.’”

St Joseph the Hesychast healed me from troubles with my lever. I had a photo of him framed and kept it inside my study out of curiosity. The photo has been there for almost two years. Recently I developed troubles with my lever. I prayed to him and promised to visit his tomb on the Holy Mountain. The results from blood tests came back all normal. Trust me, he is one person so close to the Divine healer and our Panaiagh. I will visit the Holy Mountain soon if God allows and fulfil the promise I made.
Amen!!! Glory to God!
I m very Connect with him since I heard his biography my plan is to go this summer to visit his tomb..I hope Jesus Christ have heal you.

Liver* ?
Thank You so much for sharing your testimony brother. I saw St.Joseph's documentary just now, and it was really touching. I hope you are keeping well and that the Liver troubles haven't resurfaced...
As a Catholic I find 'Chronicles of the Desert' videos treasures to the soul. Thank you Trisagion.
What church do you go to?
"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God Have Mercy on My soul...." I a 10 year old sing that to myself to sleep.
God bless you! Never stop singing this prayer! :)
Zoey, please, pray for Marek, my son. God bless You!
God bless you! Please never stop saying, never stop putting God first and listening to his voice above all others. Alas, I am in my fifties now, and I was never given this advice. My family considered themselves Christian but really were not. I ignored the call to the convent, because my mother wanted me to be successful. Now my mother is long gone, and I bitterly regret many things I did when I was young. I can repent. but I can't undo them. Please live your life as if Jesus himself is standing there watching you, because he is. Then you will not go far wrong. Pray daily, and never do anything you wouldn't do if God was watching. Then you will not end like me, with a life of regrets.
@@wmnoffaith1 i can relate. i have something for you my dear friend, matter fact two things. st isaac the syrian-"let us not grieve when we make a slip, but when we become hardened by it" and 2 corinthians 12:7-9 "7 So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations,[a] a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
@@wmnoffaith1 how could you share such advice if you had not walked those steps. Never regret that - it says everything right in the word you wrote!
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me here in this mountain desert. I want to know You and love You with such great devotion that the overflow would bring others into Your Kingdom. Have mercy Lord Jesus Have mercy
Hristos a înviat.!!! Doamne Iisuse Hristoase al meu, mântuiește țara noastră România de război, pe noi robii tăi și toată lumea ta pentru rugăciunile Sfinților Români din toate timpurile și de pretutindeni.!!!
A most beautiful and perfect video on how the Lord is calling all of us to repentance. I am weeping as I hear of the life of this Saint and my heart cries out to the Lord. Have mercy on me.
The Holy Spirit also showed me things that I must change and do away with to have the life that He has for me. That is His mercy to show us the way and lead us in the way of everlasting life.
Give it up, forsake it! Nothing is worth more than knowing the God who through His love gave His son for your life.
Please pray for me I'm severely depressed and afflicted I've been self-centered and I'm lost please help
May God bless you! Keep fighting. I have been through depression for many years, even suicidal. Keep praying and put your faith în God. No matter what may come into your life, know He loves you. Search for Him and obey His commandments. I wish I could hug you and help you în any way possible. Just dont give into these states . If you have to, take antidepresants. But keep watching old good movies, comedies with Louis de Funes and others, watch videos with babies and children and nature. Do some exercises, force yourself a little to get out of the darkness. I know how hard it is, but dont give up. Whenever you want to talk, leave a message here. You can do this, you are not alone, I promise you.
Try saying thoughout the day, Glory to God, and a smile inevitably will light up your face.
ST. JOSEPH, PLS PRAY FOR MY PRIEST, WHO SUFFERS GREATLY ! PLS HELP HIM TO HAVE THE SKETE, HE DESIRES, ACCORDING TO GOD’S WILL. PLS PRAY FOR BROTHER AND MYSELF, THAT WE MAY BECOME ALL THAT PLEASES GOD! THANK YOU!

I used to be catholic and then God opened my eyes. I pray He opens your eyes too. Ask Him to do so and He will.
St. Joseph, such an example of humility, intensity, and love...I am inspired by his life, and I thank you all so much for creating such a beautiful video on his life.

"My child, don't say in your thoughts: "Why is this?" and, "Why is that?" The Lord's judgments are an abyss. Glory to God because He loves us all. His love is manifest in our illnesses and our sorrows. "For my strength," He said, "is made perfect in weakness."

St Charbel was loved by Muslims because he prayed for and blessed everyone. They even name their babies after him. 😊
I'm not Catholic and love that guy. I don't think he'd like me very much, but I think he'd love me lol. May you be blessed on your path..

Thank you. Please help by spreading the video around : )
@@Trisagionfilms I will thank you. I have shared the 57 minute doc on Saint Porphyrios by your channel with a secularized family member who is becoming more open to God.
Excellent. Thats a good one, a lot of work went in to it. Let me know what he thinks of it.
Your films are such a great blessing
I’m in tears watching this. God allowed me to experience what St. Joseph has experienced. My heart understands every word you have spoken. I traveled around the world in search or teachers to help guide me deeper, only to find charlatans. Some day I hope to connect with an orthodox father, thank you for this beautiful piece.
Where do you live? I can potentially connect you with good Orthodox spiritual fathers/mothers.
@@NoeticInsightI am near Asheville North Carolina in the United States, and I am ready to receive instruction from my spiritual father, if God wills it.

Man's Purpose, from the moment he is born, is to love God with all he is and to love his neighbor as he loves himself. Everything else, be it religious or secular, can be either a distraction away from achieving that Purpose or a tool to help Man achieve that inborn Purpose of loving God and neighbor.
Sancte Ioseph Hesychast ora pro nobis
Gosh, I live just below the Corcovado Mountain, with the Huge Statue of Christ, the Redeemer on top,in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I must go up there more often (usually mostly tourists go, although we all have gone too many times), to honour Jesus and God.
God bless you for the hard work done for this production. Could you please consider adding greek subtitles to your videos? It would be such a blessing. Our brothers from Greece would love your series. Have a nice Easter, filled with holy mercy. Greetings from Greece.
If you know anyone who could help us with that it would be greatly appreciated. Have them email us at trisagionproductions@gmail.com
This was beautiful, Christ is Risen! Can you also make a video for the recent St Porphyrios?
Way ahead of you :)

Slava Isusu Christu! Thank you for this beautiful video. St. Joseph the Hesychast, pray for us.
This comes after a long period of struggling spiritually. I've been begging the Lord for the grace to unlearn the "greatness" of the secular world and its superfluous speech, in exchange for embracing a life of sincere repentance and interior stillness in that wilderness where God alone is teacher. Perhaps one day, but only with the grace of God, I may be able to discover what I basically, and crucially, need - the Divine - and so be able to say in humility, eternally: Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me.
To all who have, like me, watched this beautiful video, I wish you peace and God's blessings that can only be found in the silence of His vast Wilderness.
Amazing! Thank you for this video!
Come, Holy Spirit, come renew our faith, hope and love.
