  1. A Special Mother’s Day Prayer

    Today, we would like to send up a special prayer for mother’s who have children that are no longer with them, for the runaways, for those that are missing, and those that are in the prison system.

    Heavenly Father,
    We come before You with humble hearts, asking for Your comfort, strength, and peace to surround every mother carrying the pain of separation from her child. Lord, You know every tear that has fallen and every prayer that has been whispered in the night.

    We pray for the children who have run away — that Your hand of protection would cover them wherever they are. Lead them away from danger and guide them back to safety, healing, and love.

    We pray for those who are missing. Father, shine Your light into every dark place and bring answers, hope, and restoration to their families. Strengthen the hearts of mothers who wait and worry each day, and remind them that You are near to the brokenhearted.

    We also lift up those who are in the prison system. Lord, let Your mercy reach them even behind prison walls. Transform hearts, restore minds, and remind them that no one is beyond Your grace and redemption. Give their mothers comfort, courage, and faith to keep believing for better days ahead.

    Father, help us to be a community of compassion, support, and prayer. Teach us to carry one another’s burdens and to trust in Your unfailing love. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

  7. Prayer For Truth

    Heavenly Father, Source of all eternal light and wisdom, I come before You seeking the clarity of truth in a world often shrouded in confusion, falsehoods, and half-truths. Lord, please shine Your divine light into the hidden places and bring what is disguised into the open. Grant me the discernment to recognize truth, and the courage to accept it, even when it is uncomfortable or challenges my own perceptions. Remove the blinders of deception, bias, and convenience from my eyes. Help me, Lord, to speak the truth in love, and to live with integrity in every action and word. In moments of doubt, guide me toward Your ultimate truth, setting me free from fear and directing my steps on the path of righteousness for Your namesake. I trust in Your divine clarity to lead me out of deception. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

    Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. — John 8:32

    “The Age of Reason” by John R. Ancka

    It was the 25th century in outer space.

    The first failure occurred on the spaceship while the trip was proceeding normally. The controls went crazy. Suddenly. Without any reason for it. It was a minor fault, but Captain Donovan never took anything lightly and ordered Aldo, the mechanic, to find out the cause of the problem. Aldo put on his space suit and went outside the ship.

    They were on a routine mission through space to explore a moon that promised numerous resources for the future. The crew was made up of trained personnel, who had to face a new and unexplored environment. There might be some dangerous creatures or a complicated scenario. That is why it was necessary to carry weapons. Did I mention the possibility of facing space pirates? It was hard work.

    Aldo returned to the ship without news. The incident was unexplained. Hardly convinced, Captain asked for a report to be noted in the logbook. The incident remained in the log book. For a while.

    The crew soon realized that all their problems were just beginning. A little mistake here and there. Then came the reviews, but there was nothing to say. Again, there was no explanation for the failures. However, the worst were the nightmares.

    Terrifying nightmares.

    All the crew members suffered from them, filled with disturbing visions: crashes, impressive deaths, appearances of demons, childhood traumas, and unpronounceable things. A carnival of horror.

    There was another failure in the configuration of the cameras that ensured adequate rest with relaxing imagery to help crew members sleep, Instead, cameras became traps that did not allow the crew to wake up from the bad dreams until the established hours were met.

    The tired faces of the entire team were evident. In the dining room, everything was silent. A feeling of unease reigned in the spaceship.

    “I had a nightmare last night,” Sissy said, breaking the silence. She was responsible for the food. “And it’s been the same the nights before.”

    “Look at my face,” Michelle Zhang, the beautiful co-pilot, said. “Do you think any of us have been able to sleep well lately? We’re all in the same boat.”

    “I know,” Sissy said, “We have a problem. I think maybe it has to do with the ship’s gravitational system.”

    Anne looked up at Sissy. “I am the pilot. Do not forget. I would have noticed if there was any problem with the system, and I assure you that such a problem does not exist.”   

    “I’m not blaming you,” Sissy said.

    “So what are you trying to say?” Michelle asked. “I mean, we’re having strange problems with the ship, and everyone here is having terrible nightmares. The relationship between the problem and the ship’s vibrations is possible.”

    Captain limited himself to listening to the talk in silence.

    However, Aldo burst into the debate with a heated tone. “It has been impossible not to listen to your speculations about our current problems, Sissy. You wanna tell me something? I tell you this because the correct functioning of the ship’s gravitational system and the sleep chambers are my responsibility. You’re questioning my work, but what if I question yours? What if I said that nightmares occur from eating spoiled food?

    “Do you want to bet on it?” Sissy shouted, “Do you have a problem with me?”

    Captain Donovan raised a hand and ordered silence. “That’s enough. I understand what you are going through. I reviewed these failures myself. Aldo and I tried to find a solution. We couldn’t find anything. Your approach, Sissy, will be taken into account. We need different perspectives and…”

    Suddenly, there was a general breakdown on the ship. There was a horrible noise, and everything failed. Gravity, the air system, and the engines stopped. The spaceship lost its way. Total chaos.

    The crew members were suspended in the void, suffocated, unable to scream. Terrified. If they survived this, they had to solve the problem. This time, the whole thing went too far.

    A second passed, and everyone was on the floor. What just happened? Fear reflected in each of their faces.

    Captain Donovan, sat on the floor, thinking as always. Confused like everyone else. He was primarily responsible for finding a solution to the problem. Every second that this persisted was his failure.

    “This is serious,” said Ben Harris, the navigator. “We almost died.”

    “Seriously?” Sissy screamed, “It was absolutely deadly. I don’t understand how we are still alive.”

    Aldo stood up and spoke.

    “But we must do something. Anything. Captain Donovan, what shall we do now?”

    Eyes landed on the leader. He stood up and, regaining his composure, said, “I would be lying to you if I said I knew what was going on here. Together, we can discover the origin of our problems. And we will start now.”

    Captain Donovan divided the ten crew members into two teams. The first was made up of:

    -Captain Donovan

    -Aldo

    -Michelle

    -Sissy

    -Ben

    The second was made up of:

    -Anne

    -Neal, the doctor

    -Nic, the electrician

    -Carlos, the biologist

    -Jimmy, the geologist

    Both groups were assigned to explore each half of the ship. The scan carried out by the system itself failed, and a thorough examination had to be carried out in person.

    This new exploration yielded the same result. Nothing wrong with the ship. No anomaly. Shouldn’t there be a reason for all that madness?

    Only one incident occurred, although it was ultimately just a mistake. Anne’s team found something that looked like a large shadow. The group raised their weapons. They slowly approached it, but when they got closer, they only found a perfect pareidolia caused by a part of the ship.

    That night, Captain Donovan did not sleep, thinking about the problem they faced. None of them wanted to use the cameras to sleep. It was better to wake up immediately from some nightmare than to be trapped in the damn chambers.

    It occurred at approximately 3:00 a.m. A heartbreaking voice came out of nowhere. Captain Donovan ran towards the source of the noise. It was Jimmy’s room.

    He found a screaming Jimmy trapped in some horrible nightmare. He tried to wake him up, but couldn’t. The screams continued.

    The rest of the crew came, and the doctor prepared a medicine to force Jimmy to wake up.

    As the doctor prepared the dose, everyone heard the words Jimmy shouted.

    “He is here,” he shouted in terror. “His name is Khebiros, and he is coming for all of us. He says he will take us to hell. No one is here to save us…”

    The doctor gave the injection, hoping that Jimmy would snap out of the endless nightmare. Jimmy calmed down for a momento, only to wake up with a scared look, asking for help. Then he fell to the ground.

    The doctor confirmed Jimmy’s death. The crew was shocked.

    “It’s impossible,” Anne said. “What’s going on here?” She looked at the rest. “Any of us could be next.”

    The doctor tried to remain calm. “Jimmy fell into a nightmare too hard. His mind could not withstand such pressure. Do you understand? Everything can be explained.”

    “No,” Ben said, “nothing is explained. I think it’s time to stop thinking that we can explain what’s going on here. Something or someone is playing with us, and now it is killing us.”

    “We saw something during our inspection,” Nic said, “it was…”

    “It was a shadow, folks,” Neal interrupted. “A pareidolia.”

    “I thought so,” said Anne, “but now…”

    “Now what?” Sissy asked.

    “I think there’s someone on board.”

    Aldo shook his head.

    “It’s impossible, our system would have detected it.”

    “At least,” Ben said, “it’s outside of our reality, our own world.”

    “What are you saying?” Captain Donovan asked.

    “Are you talking about a ghost?” Carlos asked.

    “Oh please!” Aldo shouted. “It must be a joke.”

    Ben tried to make it clear that he was not talking about ghosts, but rather that perhaps there was an intruder on the spaceship who moved in a different dimensión, and capable of avoiding the ship’s scanners..

    “If it were true, what should we do?” Captain Donovan asked, trying to keep his mind open to other possibilities.

    Ben approached the controls and explained how to manipulate the multiple realities until they encountered a strange presence.

    “Go ahead,” Captain Donovan said.

    The rest of the team looked at Ben expectantly. Neal and Aldo were the ones with the most skeptical expressions.

    Ben’s face was tense. He had a bad feeling about what was causing the failures. He knew that there was something disturbing in the problems and nightmares they suffered. Something evil that ended with Jimmy’s death. However, he couldn’t let anyone else know his secret thoughts.

    Suddenly, a light appeared on the ship’s radar. “There,” said Sissy, expressing what no one was able to say, since everyone remained silent.

    Ben redoubled his efforts to catch the elusive intruder. It was now or never.

    The signal became stronger, as if something was captured.

    In front of the spaceship, a strange figure began to appear. He was human-shaped, but larger and more muscular than a normal human. His skin was a fiery red, and his body was covered with hair from the middle of his waist to his feet, like a bear. He had large claws on his hands and feet. However, the most terrifying thing was his face.

    On its head was a pair of large spiral horns like those of a misshapen ram. His face was deformed, a cross between a human face and a nightmare. His face expressed greed, lust, and evil. The being looked at the silent crew watching him through the ship’s glass.

    “Now you know me,” the being said. His voice echoed throughout the ship. “You are abandoned, and you are mine. All of you will come with me to my kingdom of darkness.”

    He raised a hand, pointing to the crew. Suddenly, Neal let out a cry of pain, writhed for a few moments before his shocked companions, and fell lifeless. The being vanished with a ghastly laugh that lingered in space.

    The crew members were petrified. They did not believe what they just saw. All along, they were deceived by blindly believing in science and the material, but the old beliefs were back to show them that they were wrong.

    All the fantasies of the ancestors: angels, demons, ghosts, witches, mermaids, good and evil. Could there be anywhere an all-powerful God creator of all things?

    Sissy and Anne fainted from the shock. Captain Donovan rushed to pick them up. He tended to the team patiently, gave water to each, and tried to calm them down.

    “I can’t believe what I saw,” Sissy said.

    “It’s impossible,” said Carlos, “Everything we knew was a lie.”

    “In the end, our ancestors were right to believe in magic, spirits, and all those things I won’t call nonsense anymore,” Nic said.

    “I know the impact we suffered,” said Captain Donovan, “I have suffered the same myself. But I believe we can still do something against this being.”

    “And what could we do to him?” Sissy said, ”We can’t take him on. He’s too powerful.”

    “That thing,” Aldo said, ”shouldn’t exist.”

    “But it exists,” replied Captain Donovan, ”and it’s real, as real as we are. That’s why I believe we can find a way to defeat it.”

    “Maybe,” Carlos said, ”we should stop thinking we know everything. Forget almost everything we’ve learned throughout our lives.”

    “We blindly believed in science,” said Michelle, ”as the ancients believed in myths and religions.”

    “I always wondered,” Carlos said, “if the ancients saw a lot of things by hallucination, mass hysteria, and other explanations. When we decided to abandon all these past beliefs, we were left without an authentic explanation.”

    “It’s very simple,” Anne said, “they didn’t know how to explain it all. They didn’t know what else to say.”

    Silence fell over the room for a moment.

    “According to Arthur C. Clarke,” Nic finally said, “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

    “Exactly,” Captain Donovan said, “we just don’t know how to deal with him yet.”

    “That’s right,” Aldo said. “It must have a structure, a plane in which it can move. If we force it to appear, we might be able to beat it. We just need to know its dimensional plane to attack it. Ok, I’m in.”

    “We know the plane in which it moves,” said Ben, ”I can replicate the same experience, and we can find it again.”

    Everyone agreed to put that plan into action. They grabbed the weapons, configuring them to their highest power. Michelle and Aldo wore robotic suits loaded with lasers and missiles. Quite an arsenal. However, fear gripped their hearts, because they didn’t know what they were up against.

    Ben set the ship’s power to the same frequency as the first time. It was a dangerous maneuver because excessive power use could leave them with no way to get home. But it was the only way to make the enemy appear.

    “It’s done,” Ben said. “You can start the search. Kill that idiot.”

    Only Ben and Carlos remained in the control room. The rest of the team, led by Captain Donovan, set out in search of the demon.

    “Ben, point us in the direction we should go.”

    “There’s a vibe in the warehouses. I think it’s him.”

    “Right. We’re on our way.”

    “How do we know we’re going to hurt him?” Carlos asked Ben in the control room.

    “The weapons are set to the ship’s frequency, so we’re using the same energy that we get it to show up with. Hopefully, it can hurt him.”

    Carlos and Ben stared at the screen.

    The team moved toward the warehouses. Their nerves were on edge. They still could not assimilate the existence of such a being and the obligation to face him.

    “There!” Ben shouted, his voice sounding almost desperate.

    Captain Donovan pointed his gun in the direction of the vibration and fired at it. A scream arose in the void. The whole team was terrified, but overcoming their own fear, they fired at the same spot.

    The scream grew louder, and they could see the horrible figure appear in front of them. He seemed to be wounded, and the group attacked him again. However, in the middle of the shooting, he raised a hand, and some sort of energy threw them back.

    The crew members saw the demon rise. It was huge, bigger than any human, and its skin was red, completely red. It was truly terrifying, monstrous.

    “Do you not understand that you will die? The thousand years have passed, and my power has been released. I just wanted to have a little fun with you sad ignoramuses. You think you know everything, but you know nothing. Never mind. Soon, I will destroy your world.”

    He raised a hand, and the entire ship began to vibrate. The metal creaked loudly. The ship was deforming. The demon was trying to implode everything.

    Captain Donovan shot at it to stop it. The demon roared furiously and directed its attack at him. A horrendous pain seized Captain’s body, and he fell to the ground. The demon enjoyed Captain’s suffering with a cruel smile.

    Michelle, who was inside the robotic suit, got up and ran towards the creature. The collision was terrible. They both went through a couple of walls of the ship. She fired the suit’s beams at it in an attempt to hurt it.

    Captain recovered, and with the others, ran after the demon and Michelle. It was difficult to attack the enemy without the risk of injuring Michelle as well. But, finally, the demon proved to be stronger and hit the co-pilot, sending her many meters back.

    Without wasting time, the members of the group shot him at the same time. The attack was effective and the monster fell with a loud scream. It managed to get up, and stretched its arm in the direction of the group.

    They ran on different sides to avoid falling victim to the demon’s power. When the demon saw the opportunity, it disappeared.

    The team regrouped. No one was injured, but Michelle’s robotic suit was inoperable. The good news was that she was fine, with no scratches. Captain spat blood, but asked the rest not to worry about him.

    Ben called them. The signal was too close to the control room. The enemy was coming towards them. The whole team immediately headed for the front of the ship, aware that defending the control room was their only chance of survival.

    Ben and Carlos were ready to face the enemy. Perhaps nervous, but they were determined to fight to the end.

    “Look,” said Carlos, gripping his gun tightly, “He seemed to be moving more slowly. I think he’s wounded. Maybe our team managed to hurt him.”

    “True,” Ben said, lowering the gun and looking at the screen, ”although we don’t know the stuff that being is made of, so we can’t draw any conclusions.”

    Suddenly, a powerful smell of sulfur flooded the whole room. It was unbearable. However, Ben and Carlos were still ready to attack.

    The demon appeared in front of them. Both men fired at him, but the devil was faster and avoided the lasers. They ran for cover as they fired, and their adversary, with a wave of his hand, threw them against the wall.

    The creature looked at them and headed for the controls. At that moment, the doors opened, and the rest of the team started shooting at it.

    “We have to cover the controls,” Sissy said.

    The demon went through the lasers and attacked Sissy, killing her.

    The crew attacked it with all the arsenal they had. The Monster screamed, and fired powerful lightning bolts that damaged the ship’s structure. The crewmen took cover as best they could. The lightning seemed to come from all sides and cause more destruction.

    “We should do something,” Michelle said in the midst of the war, ”I don’t think we’re hurting him anymore.”

    “Captain,” Ben said, ”if we can stop him for a brief moment, I could teleport him to the engines and harness the energy there to send him to a distant dimensión, so far away that it couldn’t hurt us. At least, in theory.”

    “I could stop it,” Aldo shouted. He was the only one with a robotic suit, capable of stopping it.

    “That solution would be too dangerous,” Ben said, ”you will die.”

    “Aldo,” Captain Donovan said, ”let me do it. Give me the suit.”

    “Negative, Captain,” Aldo replied, ”putting on this suit wasted too much of my time. Too late.”

    “How much energy are we going to use for that?” Anne asked. “We may run out of a way to get home.”

    “It will be worse to die here,” Nic said.

    “Okay,” Anne said, ”good point.”

    “Damn it, Ben, do I or don’t I?” Aldo asked.

    “I can’t find another way,” Ben said.

    “Aldo, no!” Captain Donovan shouted.

    And Aldo ran straight at the devil, surprising him and embracing him with the suit at its highest energy.

    Ben ran to the controls, setting up the system as the violent fight between the demon and Aldo continued. The rest of the team took cover from the lasers the opponent threw at them. However, they were also firing at him, trying to avoid hurting Aldo.

    A light covered the fighters, and they both disappeared from the control room. For a moment, all was quiet. Suddenly, commotion erupted. There were explosions everywhere.

    “Ben!” Captain shouted. The destruction continued to sweep over more sections of the ship.

    “I’m on it!” Ben shouted.

    “We have to go to the engines,” Anne shouted, ”we have to help Aldo.”

    “Let´s go!” the rest of the team said in unison.

    The crew members ran to the engines, when an explosion occurred, destroying almost half of the ship.

    The safety mechanism caused the gates to seal the half that had not been destroyed.

    The starship (or the part of the ship that survived) floated directionless in the vastness of space.

    “He’s gone,” Ben said sadly, ”Aldo couldn’t do it. We  barely have enough power to keep the air and lights on.”

    “But we must have some way out of all this,” Nic said, looking to others for hope.

    “We have nothing,” Anne said, ”we have no way to get home.”

    “Without power we’re not going anywhere,” said Michelle, ”and without engines, we’re not going anywhere either.”  

    “Oh, no!” Nic said. ”We’re lost, we’re going to die.”

    Everyone remained silent. No one could say anything to counteract this reality.

    Until Captain Donovan stepped forward.

    “We still have something to do,” Captain said firmly. He got down on his knees and began a prayer to some merciful god in the infinity of the universe.

  9. Prayer For Lost Souls

    Heavenly Father,
    In Your boundless mercy and love,
    I lift up to You all lost souls—
    Those who wander in darkness, confusion, or pain,
    Who think you have forgotten their plights.

    Please shine Your divine light upon them, Lord.
    Guide them gently toward Your truth,
    Wrap them in Your compassion,
    And grant them rest where there is unrest.

    For those who feel alone or forgotten,
    Be their comfort and their hope.
    For those who have lost their way,
    Lead them back to love, to purpose, and to You.

    Forgive their burdens, heal their wounds,
    And welcome them into Your eternal peace.
    May no soul be beyond Your grace,
    And may Your mercy reach even the farthest heart.

    In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

  13. Prayer Of Divine Protection

    Heavenly Father: You are my foundation and my peace. Your Word says that in righteousness I will be established, and I hold on to that promise today. Build my life on what is right in Your sight—steady, strong, and unshaken.

    Lord, remove fear from my heart. When anxiety tries to rise, remind me that it has no place in the life You are establishing. Keep oppression far from me—every force that seeks to weigh me down, silence me, or discourage me has no authority here.

    Surround me with Your protection. Let Your presence be a shield over my mind, my body, my family, and my future. Where there has been worry, replace it with confidence. Where there has been heaviness, fill me with Your peace.

    Establish me so firmly in Your truth that I do not waver, no matter what comes. Let my life reflect Your righteousness, and let Your peace be evident in all I do.

    I trust You to keep me safe, grounded, and secure. I walk forward today without fear, knowing You are with me. In Your holy name I pray, Amen.

    Heavenly Father,

    On this Easter day, we come before You with grateful hearts, rejoicing in the victory of life over death and light over darkness. Thank You for the gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ, and for the hope we have through His resurrection.

    Lord, renew our spirits just as the earth is made new in this season. Fill us with Your peace, Your love, and unwavering faith. Help us to walk in the joy of the risen Christ, sharing kindness, forgiveness, and compassion with those around us.

    When we face trials, remind us that the stone has been rolled away and that nothing is impossible with You. Let Your resurrection power breathe new life into our dreams, our relationships, and our purpose. May our lives reflect Your glory today and always. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

    "Amen" means "let it be." If you are ending a prayer with #amen, you are basically wishing that #god will do what you want.

    If that's your idea of how prayer is supposed to work, you're doing it wrong.

    God is supposed to know everything, and is not going to grant prayer wishes like a #genie in the sky. Prayer is supposed to help you, the one #praying, to deal with how the world *is* and to help you find the #strength within yourself to do your best at navigating it while living by whatever principles of caring for yourself, your family, your community, and your planet that your god has decreed.

  30. A Palm Sunday Prayer

    Heavenly Father,

    On this Palm Sunday, we remember the day Your Son, Jesus Christ, entered Jerusalem in humility and peace, greeted with shouts of “Hosanna.” We lift our voices today in praise and adoration, welcoming Him into our hearts as our King and Savior.

    Lord, just as the crowds laid down palm branches before Him, we lay down our burdens, our pride, and our fears at Your feet. Teach us to follow Jesus not only in moments of celebration, but also in times of challenge and sacrifice. Strengthen our faith so that it remains steady, even when the path is difficult.

    Help us to truly understand the depth of Your love—a love that leads to the cross and beyond, bringing redemption and new life. Prepare our hearts this Holy Week to reflect, to grow, and to draw closer to You. May we walk in humility, serve with compassion, and proclaim Your goodness in all we do. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

  31. An Early Morning Prayer

    Gracious and loving God,
    Thank You for the gift of this new day.
    As the light of dawn awakens the world, awaken my heart to Your presence.
    Fill my mind with peace, my words with kindness, and my actions with purpose.
    Please grant me the wisdom to walk in truth,
    the strength to face challenges with courage,
    and the grace to see Your hand in all that unfolds.
    Help me to bring light where there is darkness,
    hope where there is doubt,
    and love where there is need.

    May this day reflect Your goodness through all I do. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
