OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Is Christmas Really Done?

O Lord, You know I suffered when Hubby said, “We have to take down this tree before it goes bald.” Before long — maybe not until Valentine’s Day? — we’ll store the evergreens, the toy village, and the manger scene. I’ll fuss over the whole process like a sulky six-year-old.

But OMG, I thank You that Christmas is never over. Emmanuel, whose name means “God with us,” can’t be shut in a closet or stuck in the garage. Jesus walks my world and yours, seeking whom He can bless.

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Dietary Discourse

Father, of course, You recall my grandson’s comment about my morning fiber cereal: “Grandma, that looks like the pellets we feed Torti” (his pet tortoise).

“Probably tastes like them too,” I wrinkled my nose. “But I don’t eat this because I like it. I eat it because it’s good for me.”

Thank you, Lord, for an unplanned lesson for this picky little eater. Plus a reminder for Grandma, who would much prefer a daily diet of chocolate, Boston cream-filled doughnuts.

OMG, It’s Monday! Prayer: Jesus, You Do Marriage Miracles

OMG, thank You for our marriage of 50 years! Please help us, whether dining in uptown restaurants and cheering winning ball teams — or shoveling snow and cleaning bathrooms — to celebrate life together every day!
