This category gathers related prayers and meditations from across the site, organized by theme, saint, virtue, season, or liturgical topic.
This page gathers prayers for growing in holiness — prayers that ask God for the grace to overcome specific vices, build virtue, and become the person He made you to be. You’ll find prayers here centered on humility, patience, charity, and surrender, along with prayers written for those moments when you recognize a particular fault in yourself and want to bring it honestly before God.
Many of these prayers are meant to be prayed as a daily practice rather than a one-time petition — holiness tends to grow slowly, through repetition, not all at once. You’ll find prayers suited to morning or evening prayer, as well as prayers meant to accompany a specific commitment, like giving up a habitual sin or working on a particular virtue over time.
If you’re not sure where to start, pick a single prayer that speaks to something you’re currently working on, and return to it daily for a season, rather than moving through many at once.
