How about letting your mind wander whilst doodling?
It's also a great way to pray...reflecting on something and letting your prayer guide your doodling.
The different colours and patterns could be used to represent people and things that you are praying for - such as red for love, circles for the world, blue for the NHS, spirals for the spread of coronavirus, yellow for hope, and so on.
The really simple examples above are a couple of patterns I used to love drawing when I was a teenager - a wavy 'chess board', and curve-sketching using straight lines.
Here's a great selection of how impressive doodles can get: Doodle ideas
and, if you want to do something with an explicitly religious theme, maybe take some inspiration from Mary Fleeson - Lindisfarne Scriptorium
[The two images show doodles - an orange and white 'wavy chessboard' design, and an ink doodle of a curve made from overlapping straight lines.]
