O Lord, both my candle and I are getting old and tired and blobby. Still, OMG, please help us let our lights shine!

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: I Already Need a Nap

O Lord, why are we Americans so suspicious of siestas? You recall that even as a young office worker, I sneaked to a back room at noon and closed the drapes to conceal my catching a few winks. Why did I have to hide as if conducting lunchtime drug deals? You’ve never considered napping a sin. OMG, You even advocated a whole day of rest! Amen, Father.

And power to the nappers!

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Who Needs Cardio Training?

O Lord, You know I wouldn’t spend a typical day attending a hockey game in which spectators cheer fights, jangle cowbells and throw pucks.

I wouldn’t help socialize a grandrat.

Or witness the morphing of a human into a freaky trick-or-treat alien.

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Why the Christmas Rush?

O Lord, It’s only October, but I can’t buy a can of beans without seeing a Santa Claus. You, who made the sun move backward to preserve daylight during an Old Testament battle — OMG, could you pause on lovely fall …

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Time Warp

O Lord, one moment our grandson rode a little playground horsie.

A seeming moment later, he’s taller than his tall grandpa.

OMG, did I blink too slow?

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Allergic to Technology

O Lord, You have gifted some of Your people so they can operate five devices at once.

I, on the other hand, consider Ziploc® bags high tech.

OMG, have You reserved a special niche in Heaven for those of us who prefer the simple life?    

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: This Book Shouldn’t Be Banned from the Library

O Lord, sometimes I read Bible accounts that seem as if they should have been voted off the flannelgraph!

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Ha! They Were Wrong!

O, Lord, You know that 22 years ago, I found it easy to listen to voices that predicted we wouldn’t survive the terrors of 9/11. OMG, all seven of our grandchildren, born after that date, remind me that pessimists aren’t always right. And that You. Are. Good.
