Let it Be

A Journal Prayer

Tonight, I pause and listen.
I write not to explain, but to be present.
This feels like a solemn moment in my life—
one where silence becomes my companion
and stillness gently takes over.

I release guilt.
I release shame.
I choose to see clearly, with compassion for myself.
I stand on my own now, trusting where I am.

I offer this journey of motherhood back to You.
I know it is not one path, but many.
Not conformity, but choice.
Remind me that I am not a victim of life—
that my independence has been my teacher,
and observation my wisdom.

My upbringing was heavy,
and some memories still tighten my chest.
When they surface, grant me grace.
Teach me the peace of doing nothing
when nothing is required.

I remember that life is an experience,
and happiness grows from the choices I make.
Help me choose what truly matters.
Help me protect my priorities,
set loving boundaries,
and release the need to please.

This is the season to commit to my convictions.
To trust the gifts You place in my hands.
To stop hiding from healing.
Show me what healing really means—
to see the world as it is,
to let go of expectations,
to surrender control.

Life is mysterious, and I do not need all the answers.
I may not know what others are carrying,
but I know what my heart longs for now:
peace, understanding, and softness.

I admit this moment is not easy.
The pressure feels heavy in my chest.
When I wonder whether to keep going or to rest,
remind me that both are sacred.
Tonight, I choose to let go.
I choose to trust what unfolds.

Help me remain present.
Help me be myself—fully, gently, honestly.
Remind me that this is a blessing in disguise.
That this too shall pass.
That hearts are awakening, including mine.

I release attachment.
I listen to intuition.
I practice forgiveness by allowing things to be.
I remember that these moments are fleeting,
and that love and happiness live in alignment with truth.

I live fully, knowing my work is not yet done.
There is more love to give,
more service waiting to move through me.

Tonight, I lay my thoughts down.
I walk with You—
Spirit and soul—
having a human experience.

This is a slow road.
This is a peaceful road.
And I trust it.

Amen.
