 Dear Heavenly Father, First and foremost, I thank You for all the good times—for the joy I have experienced in those moments. I also thank You for the difficult times, for the lessons they h...


 Dear Father, thank you, thank you, thank you for not allowing me to see or hear any mice. I keep seeing mice feces—but not one mouse…until two days ago. It was AWFUL—literally mice feces every...

Twice in one day

 Dear God, I sometimes wonder if numbers mean anything to You. In many ways, I think they do. When I think about the Bible, every chapter and verse is organized through numbers. Jesus multip...

Better go to bed soon

 Dear God, I decided to cancel my studio session tomorrow because I feel like I still need more time to write down my lyrics and go over the songs. I also want to rehearse the songs I plan t...

20s not 40s

 Dear God, The new guy I mentioned earlier said that I reminded him of someone in their 20s rather than someone in their 40s. I knew he was only temporary in my life and that I didn’t really...

Be careful

 Dear God, I woke up thinking about a swimsuit from my dream. I was working with Anabel, and she was talking to me. She said she didn’t really want to spend time with someone — that she only ...

Walking away

Dear God, I only have seven hours to rest before boarding another plane. I feel a lot right now, but I know I’ll be okay. I can feel You teaching me. I’m learning so much about myself. I’m...

What keeps you up at night

 Dear God, I’ve decided I want to write a K-pop–style song about taking flights. It will be an inspirational anthem about riding VIP with me, and I’ll be the captain. It will be about succes...

Another class of 8 hours

Dear God, Thank You for waking me up to a brand-new day. I pray that the instructors give us a little grace with the homework today. I pray that I fully understand last night’s assignment and...

Manchester 1985 Presentation

 Dear God, This weekend was challenging. I kept noticing the different personalities around my roommate, and it felt like she was aligning herself with the few girls who dislike me. Friday ni...

 Dear God, “I’m so proud of you.” Those were the last words I heard before going to bed last night. My friend Amara said that to me just before we hung up on our phone call. She has shown ...

Drank last night…

 Dear God, Yesterday was Fat Tuesday. There were beads, pizza, king cake, and a lot of alcohol. I didn’t indulge in everything — just the alcohol. I think I had about three shots, within my ...


Dear God, I woke up this morning thinking about the guy colleagues I studied with. It felt so good to be productive alongside them. I woke up calm — not anxious — but comforted, clear on wha...

Never Feed A Hater

 Dear God, There is someone on this platform who continually tries to upset me—privately with harsh words and publicly with subtle rudeness. I know I will encounter people like this through...

Do or Die

Dear God, It is 10:16 pm. The earliest I’ve ever been in bed for the past 3 weeks of my life. Since I’ve been in school, I’ve been in bed usually around 1 or 2am. I celebrated because I made a ...

Thank you

 Dear God, I cried again today. I read the comments people left for me on this platform, and my heart felt so full. I am so sensitive, and knowing that people truly care touches me more deep...

1 down, 4 more to go…

 Dear God, Thank You for helping me pass the exam today. If I hadn’t passed, I would have been terminated immediately and sent home. I’m grateful for Your guidance and protection. Tomorro...


Dear God, I keep replaying everything over and over in my mind—why did I fail those two tests? Timing is crucial; we only have 60 minutes. Even though I’m always the last person to finish, i...

I cried just now…

 Dear God, I’m sitting in class right now, eating my lunch, while the clique I usually hang out with is outside soaking up vitamin D. They never fail. They mostly make perfect scores, and so...

Hardest exam yet

Dear God, I have a hard exam tomorrow. I’m going to wake up one hour earlier than usual to study, which means I’ll get seven hours of sleep—from midnight to 7 a.m. I’ll study for one hour, t...

It’s 2:12am

 Dear God, If I go to bed now…I might get 6 hours of sleep. It’s the latest I ever gone to bed on a school night. I pray that I fall asleep quickly.  Just a quick recap, I watched Joyce Meyers...

The Cats Meow

Dear God, Thank You for another day. Please let the knot on my head go away. I promise I won’t drink like that again—I clearly had too much. I walked straight into a wall, for heaven’s sake....

I got tipsy… again

 Dear God, I admit I’m a little tipsy… but You already knew that. Tonight, I organized a small gathering—Jim, Jillian, Alex, John, Karla, and me. It was really nice. We all ended up in the jac...

Elena was sent home :(

 Dear God, Thank You for letting me pass my fourth exam. I got five wrong—same as my roommate. Alex didn’t study at all, and I studied until 2 a.m. I studied this hard because Shervy reminded m...

 Dear God, I know it’s very late—almost 2 a.m.—and I probably shouldn’t be up, but thank You so much for letting me earn a perfect score today.  I only had to answer the questions I missed.  ...


Book Description

A woman in her mid-forties clings to a dream she has carried since she was two—before it had a name, when it lived only as a feeling. Now that feeling is weighted with exhaustion, yet hope still hums quietly beneath the fatigue.
This book traces her inner journey as she seeks a deeper bond with God, weathering trials that test both heart and spirit.
Will she bend beneath the world’s pressure, or rise by remembering God’s promises and holding fast to her faith?
