Default New Years Prayer

Dear Lord, Happy New Year

Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:

God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm
and safe from harm
For they're so close to me.

And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;
Hope you don't mind me asking,
Please bless my computer too.

Now I know that it's unusual
To Bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second
While I explain it to you, Lord.

You see, that little metal box
Holds more than odds and ends;
Inside those small compartments
Rest so many of my friends.

I know so much about them
By the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of metal
Takes me in to where they live.

Please take an extra minute
From your duties up above,
To bless those in my address book
That's filled with so much love.

Wherever else this prayer may reach
To each and every friend,
Bless each e-mail inbox
And each person who hits 'send'.

When you update your Heavenly list
On your own Great CD-ROM,
Bless everyone who says this prayer
Sent up to GOD.com

Amen

Hi Muncle,

Great to see you posting again.

Thank you for the beautiful prayer. I never thought about my computer that way - I do have the names of people very dear to me stored in its memory.

Hope this means you are on the mend and will be on the golf course soon.

Have an easy year, a healthy one and the best year ever - WELCOME BACK.

Muncle...I had never thought of my computer in this way until I read the prayer. As I fly north to Michigan today I won't be feeling quite so sad knowing I'm taking my closest and dearest friends with me. I'm hoping 2009 is a better year for you. Take care, my friend.
