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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Last night, my imagination took me somewhere exhilarating.
In the dream, I fell in love with a biker who was my original character, Adam, but rougher. He had a buzz cut and this intense, dangerous energy about him. The kind of person who would make everyone else nervous, but somehow I knew I was safe with him.
The dream took place in downtown St. Louis at night. Everything felt alive: the streets of the city rushing past, lights everywhere, the feeling of movement and freedom. I ended up running away and joining his biker gang. It didn’t feel scary at all. It felt like stepping into a wild adventure, where normal life didn’t matter anymore. His biker gang was like a modern-day Robin Hood, stealing from the rich to give to the poor.
My Aunt Margie and Uncle Dave found me with the gang in the streets. Uncle Dave was yelling at Adam, and even though I didn't want to leave, I went with my aunt and uncle to avoid a fight. But as my uncle was driving me home, I jumped out of the moving car without getting hurt. I called Adam on a red cell phone and confessed my feelings for him. He came and picked me up on his black-and-violet motorcycle.
At one point, Adam gave me a black choker to wear. It felt important, like a symbol that showed the world I belonged to him and with the gang. I remember feeling happy when he gave it to me—excited and close to him.
The rest of the dream was us riding together on his motorcycle through the city. I was behind him, holding on while we sped through the streets. He felt protective but also dangerous, like someone who could handle anything that came our way.
The dream didn’t really end with a conclusion. It just stopped while we were still riding through the city together—lights passing, engine roaring, still in the middle of the journey.

Thank You for everything I have today—the little joys, the love around me, the peace in my heart. Help me to be patient for what I want and to trust Your timing. Teach me to enjoy the moment and not rush things.
Please teach others to be patient and not rush. Your blessings for them will come in time.

Thank You for giving me determination and helping me quiet my mind when I have writer's block.
During Lent, I'm reflecting on the determination that Jesus showed in following His path with faith and courage. This reminds me to keep going even when things get difficult.
Thank You for guiding my thoughts and helping me persevere.
Please give others the perseverance during major and minor things.

Sometimes I feel a little uncertain about things, but I am choosing to trust You. Give me patience when I get frustrated with myself. Fill my heart with peace, gratitude, and hope. Thank You for the kindness, support, and love that surround me each day.

God,
During this season of Lent, I'm thinking about kindness. Life can feel heavy sometimes, but small moments---a kind word, a peaceful minute, or something that makes me smile---remind me that light is there. I believe those moments are little reminders from You that I'm not alone.
Thank You for the quiet kindness that keeps me going, and for the hope that grows even in difficult times. Please help me notice these moments more and share that kindness with others.
Please give these reminders to anyone who needs them as well.

Thank You for knowing my heart, even when my mind feels disorganized and is going at turbo speed.
Sometimes, thoughts that I didn't invite or want just appear.
Help me remember that a thought isn't the same as who I am.
Give me peace to let those thoughts pass and return my focus to You and my loved ones.
Please give peace to anyone who needs it as well tonight.

Last night, I had a dream that my family and I were staying in an old, Gothic castle. One night, I heard the song "The Music of the Night" was playing somewhere in the castle. I followed the sound down a dark corridor, and at the end, stood Adam (my original character) as the Phantom Of The Opera. He led me into a secret passage. I was now walking into an underground palace with many rooms and people. I could have anything I wanted there: coffee, food, swimming, dancing, music. When I was ready to leave, he playfully hid my cameo shoes. I was going from room to room, looking for them when I woke up.

God,
Thank You for Daddio. He's a great dad and one of my best friends. Thank You for having Mommio and Daddio meet at 7-Eleven all those years ago. I think he was destined to be my and Amanda's Daddio all along. Our family is so blessed!
Please guide those who are lost to their destined path.

God,
Thank You for meeting me in the middle of the sometimes chaotic noise in my head.
At times, my mind feels loud, fast, bouncy.
But You're steady. You're not overwhelmed by these thoughts.
Even when I can't seem to slow down, You're calm without being distant.
Teach me how to rest inside, even when I don't feel quiet.
Please help those who need rest and steadiness in their lives.

Thank you for the sense of security in a sometimes scary world. Nowadays, the news is becoming more terrifying than any horror story I could think up. I have a bad habit of being oblivious to the real world, but I'm slowly becoming more aware. You help me see it while making me feel safe. Thank You for letting us know that You're still there and always will be.
Please help anyone who needs it right now. Please keep them safe in Your light.
