Good Morning, God
We've made it through Black Friday and now it's Cyber Monday.  Already the on-line orders are pouring in, taking advantage of the sweet deals - deep discounts, free shipping, no-hassle returns, minimal gift wrapping charges.  It's so nice to be able to shop from the comfort of our homes or offices, Lord.
However, Lord, as convenient as the on-line ordering is, we might miss the interaction with others directly.  We might miss the person with whom we can check if something looks good on us.  We might miss the other person's ideas for what gift to get the relative who has everything.  We might miss being able to be the most polite and gracious person in the crowd.  We might miss the warmth of the touches, sights and smells of all the stuff available for purchase.
Lord God, thank you for all of the ways we can say "I like you" or "I appreciate you" or "I love you" to another person.  May we be generous with our likes and loves this year.
In Jesus name, Amen
