Lent Entry #38

 

God,

When I’m feeling annoyed, please help me pause and breathe before I react. Calm my thoughts and steady my spirit so I don’t let small frustrations take over. Give me patience in the moment and remind me to respond with grace.

Help me keep my peace and let things go when they’re not worth holding onto. 

Also, please help others to see the error of their ways, like You help me see mine.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.

My Latest OC

 

Anthony has dark-chocolate skin, faded black hair, and dark green eyes. He wears a 50s-style leather jacket, blue jeans, and biker boots. He appeared in my dream one night at a graveyard. He's playful, and zaps place to place. He’s the son of Morpheus (the Greek god of dreams). Anthony’s magic colors are black and silver. Adam is training him to be Magnificence’s new Dream Protector©, since Adam decided to protect me full-time and be my imaginary husband. Anthony will stay with us during the day and go back to Magnificence at night. He’s twenty-nine.

I might put him in a future story.

Lent Entry #37

 

God,

Thank You for the connections I have in my life. Thank You for the people who care for me, who stay, who listen, and who bring warmth into my days. Help me to appreciate them more and to be a source of kindness in their lives, too. Guide my heart to nurture these relationships with love, patience, and understanding.

Lent Entry #36

 

God,

If there’s anything in me that needs to fade this Lent, it’s my occasional anxiety.

It’s the overthinking on a dizzying loop and the way my mind runs ahead of me, imagining the worst before anything even happens. It steals my peace and makes me forget that You are already in control.

I lay my anxiety down—not perfectly, not all at once, but honestly. Because You never asked me to hold everything together by myself.

Help me release the fear of “what if.”
Help me trust You with the unknown.
Help me breathe without feeling like something is about to go wrong.

Let my anxiety fade, and let something new take its place.

Let peace live in me.
Let trust grow in me.
Let me feel safe in Your presence, even when life feels uncertain. 

Thank You for always holding me, even when I feel like I can’t hold myself.

Remind me that I am held, that I am not alone, and that I don’t have to fight every battle in my own mind.

Day by day, teach me how to rest in You. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #35

 

God,

Today I don’t come to ask for anything.

No requests, no worries, no lists of things I hope You’ll fix.

I just want to sit with You.

Thank You for being here—even in the moments I don’t notice, even in the quiet spaces where I forget to look.

Thank You for my life, for my breath, for the small things that feel ordinary but aren’t.

Thank You for staying, even when my mind wanders, or my faith feels distant.

Right now, I’m not asking for answers.

I’m not asking for change.

I’m just here.

And I know…somehow, that’s enough. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below,

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #34

 

God,

Thank You for nostalgia—the quiet, tender gift of remembering.

Thank You for the moments I can look back on with a smile instead of sadness. For the memories that feel like soft light instead of something heavy. For showing me that my past doesn’t have to hurt to be meaningful.

Thank You for how far I’ve come, even in ways I didn’t notice at the time; For the growth hidden in ordinary days, and for the strength You were building in me when I didn’t yet understand it.

When I revisit old songs, old places, or old versions of myself, please help me see them with gratitude instead of longing. Remind me that every version of me was held by You, guided by You, and never alone.

Let my memories be a reminder—not of what I’ve lost—but of how much I’ve lived, how much I’ve learned, and how much You’ve carried me through.

Thank You for the past, for the present, and for the person I’m still becoming. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit;

As above, so below,

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #33

 

God,

Thank You for showing me that my faith and my spiritual practices don’t have to be in conflict. Instead, they can come together in a way that brings me closer to You.

In crystals, I don’t seek power—I see reminders of the beauty and intention You placed in creation. In journaling, I don’t just write—I open my heart to You, turning my thoughts into quiet prayers. In music, I don’t just listen—sometimes I feel something deeper, something that grounds me and gently brings me back to Your presence.

These things don’t pull me away from You. They steady me. They help me breathe, reflect, and reconnect.

Please bless the things that help me feel grounded. Let them always lead me toward peace, toward truth, and toward You. Keep my heart centered so that everything I turn to for comfort becomes a path that leads back to You.

Help others find their own ways to feel grounded and connected, too, whatever that may look like for them. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below,  

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #32

 

God,

Thank You for my thirst for learning and for the wit You’ve given me.

While watching the TV series, The Chosen, I felt drawn to the character of Abigail. She was kind and intelligent, and her connection with Jesus Christ stood out to me. When I looked deeper into her story, I saw how wise and brave she truly was—how she protected her household through courage and understanding, stepping into danger to bring peace.

Please help me, and others, grow in that same wisdom and courage in our own lives. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.

God,

Thank You for the time I get to spend with my family.
For the small moments that mean so much.
Help me not take them for granted,
and remind me that this time is a gift.

Please remind others that their time with loved ones is important too. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below,

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #30

 

God,

Thank You for music—the way it speaks when I can’t, and holds what I don’t know how to explain. Thank You for giving me a heart that feels deeply, even when it’s overwhelming, and for not leaving me there alone.

In songs, I find peace, understanding, and pieces of myself I don’t know how to name. Please keep guiding my heart gently, and help me use what I feel in a way that brings light, not weight. 

Please help others find this creative peace too. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below,

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #29

 

God,

Thank You for my gut health. Thank You for how my body works behind the scenes, even when I don’t notice. Help me not to fixate on things I can’t control. When I feel anxious, remind me to unclench, breathe, and release. Let my body relax.

Please help others to relax and not overthink, too. 

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; 

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.
