In the morning, I read the gospel and the reflection for that gospel reading. It talked about the importance of praying and not being shy about it. So I prayed to God asking that a small matter for me might go well. And it did, beyond what I had expected, even though there were signs before that it would not go well! I am so grateful to God for answering my prayers to this amazing extent. I am very grateful and not worthy.

I had plenty of time to work on my video game and made good progress easily. I am grateful to God for this.

For the first time since the pandemic, I took off my mask to eat with a friend. I had prayed to God about this. I felt completely safe. And it was so fun! I am so grateful to God for answering my prayers and for making this momentous occasion go so well.

God gave me amazing guidance during my Bible meditation session. I am very grateful and not worthy.

I had a conflict with someone and was feeling very bad about it. Then I opened my Bible app. I temporarily forgot that I had been reading a plan on forgiveness. And among the topics, today’s was specifically about conflict. It was revelatory. I am so grateful to God for His perfect guidance. He mercifully makes it so clear and immediate. I am not worthy.

I just barely finished my video game for the competition the day before, but I didn’t have the opportunity to submit it. It was due this morning, so I planned to wake up a bit earlier than usual and submit it, knowing it would take a while to compile. But in the morning, I ended up getting up with just a few minutes to spare. But then I had a few obstacles, so I was running even later. I resigned myself to not being able to submit it, which would have been disappointing. But when I checked the portal, the deadline was extended by a whole hour! I know this is all thanks to God. He even helps me extraordinarily in small, personal matters like this. Thanks to Him, I was able to submit it. I am so grateful to God for this. I am not worthy.

God gave me amazing and extremely clear guidance in the homily. He first gave it I think around a week ago suddenly while I was praying, and reinforced it during the homily this day. I am very grateful and not worthy.

For the first time since COVID, I hung out with friends inside my house. I was worried about being exposed to germs and so prayed to God, and I felt completely safe. And I had so much fun. I’ve been wanting to become closer friends with this person for quite a while now, so I am all the more grateful that it turned out well. I am so grateful to God for answering all my prayers and for making it so fun.

I got all the work that I needed to get done done. And importantly, I fixed a big error and finished my video game. It’s due in the morning. I was very worried I wouldn’t be able to finish it in time and am very grateful to God for helping me finish it.

I prayed to God asking for His guidance on a matter, and He gave me extremely clear guidance the next morning. Extremely clear. I am very grateful to God for this and not worthy.

I got enough work done but also had plenty of time to work on my video game, which is due very soon. I am very grateful to God for this.

I submitted a paper to a journal. I’m really happy with the way it turned out. The process was great, and God kindly made of my results turn out well. And even at the end, I was able to fix mistakes before it was too late. I’m really grateful to God for this.

I submitted that paper, finished a draft of another submission, and started a video game for a game jam I’ve been looking forward to. I’m grateful to God for this great day.
