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.

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.

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.

God,

Thank You for giving me the ability to create worlds while keeping my feet on the ground when needed.

Thank You for imagination and the escape it provides. Help me remember it’s okay in small doses, but not to get lost in it.

When I start to overthink or hold on too tightly, help me let go and trust You. Help me not to stress over things I can’t control.

Please help others feel grounded and less stressed, too. 

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

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #27

God,

I’m just checking in. To be honest, I don't know what to say today. No prayer is perfect, and this definitely isn’t, but it’s real.

Thank You for everything You’ve given me—even the things I forget to notice. I know I have more than I realize sometimes.

I get caught up in small things a lot. I overthink, get frustrated, or just stay stuck in my head longer than I should. And I know those things aren’t as big as they feel in the moment.

So I’m giving that to You. All of it.

Help me slow down. Help me keep the right perspective. Help me remember how blessed I actually am, even when I don’t fully feel it.

Please help others to see that their prayers don’t have to be perfect, just from the heart.

And even when I don’t say things right or show up the way I should, thank You for being patient with me anyway.

I’m trying. That’s where I’m at right now.

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

As above, so below,

Amen/Blessed be.

Lent Entry #26

 

God,

Thank You for the necessities in my life—food, clean water, a home, and a loving family. These blessings sustain me every day, even when I forget to notice them.

When small inconveniences happen, like the internet going out, please remind me to keep the right perspective. Help me remember how much I truly have and to remain grateful instead of frustrated.

Please remind others not to sweat the small things. Also, help those who are struggling to receive the basic necessities they need each day.

Teach me to appreciate the simple things and to never take anything for granted.

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

As above, so below,

Amen/Blessed be.

God,

Thank You for the ability to empathize with others. Please help me remember that everyone carries wounds I cannot see, and help me look beyond the hurt someone may have caused to the humanity within them.

Please help me forgive and empathize with my enemies, past and present. Sometimes my anger feels strong, and forgiveness feels difficult. When I struggle, guide my heart and calm my thoughts.

You forgave even those who hurt You and Your Son. Help me learn that kind of mercy and patience in my own life.

I know I am not perfect. I am only human, and I am still growing. Help me become a more patient and forgiving person, little by little.

Please let forgiveness bring peace to my heart, not bitterness. 

Please remind others to have empathy and compassion. 

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

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.

God, 

Thank You for the gift of a vivid imagination You blessed me with. Thank You for the stories that grow in my mind and the characters that keep me company when I need comfort.

Even when I write dark or scary stories, You give me peace through my imagination. Some characters bring comfort, guidance, and encouragement, helping me stay steady even in the worlds I create.

I’m grateful for the characters You help me imagine—they bring strength and courage when my thoughts feel heavy. Through them, You remind me to keep dreaming, creating, and believing in the impossible.

Please help me use the imagination You gave me in a good and hopeful way, and let the stories I create bring light, comfort, and joy. 

Please open others' minds, and let them know that imagining isn't only for children. 

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

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.

 God,

Thank You for Mother Mary’s gentle, committed courage.

Even in the impossible, she trusted Your plan.

Let her light guide me—soft as my sparkling crystals,

shimmering in my heart and around the words I write.

Help me hold hope, small sparks of faith,

and believe in the miracles You whisper into my life.

Please let her light shine on others as well. Let their faith glisten. 

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

As above, so below, 

Amen/Blessed be.
