Poll Does Prayer Help You Feel Safer?

Prayer is a great part of my healing. It can make me feel safer when it is a psychological feeling of being unsafe.

My faith has shifted massively since unpicking my trauma and resultant health issues. I still have a belief in God but how that is expressed has changed and my sense of who God is is different too. I no longer think of Him as being an angry, frightening, judging God just waiting to catch me doing something wrong, which is what has characterised so much of my faith up until now.

I've not properly sorted out my feelings about faith and where now I want to belong in terms of faith community but the knowledge of the existence of God has helped me enormously.
