Good Morning, God
Ah, another fun day, Lord, a day to laugh and play with superstitions. We want to be sure not to “step on a crack so we won’t break our mother’s back”. We want to not break a mirror so we won’t have seven years of bad luck. We want to not walk under a ladder. We want to watch out for black cats crossing in front of us. Of course, we definitely want to always consider what Punxsutawney Phil sees – He always predicts the weather correctly!
Lord, there are people who live and die with superstitions, even believing and following things called horoscopes. There are people who also even consider you a superstition, Lord, and your word merely a lot of fantasy. There are some who even consider praying and these prayers superstition.
However, Lord, we who make these and other prayers and others who listen believe the truth – that you, O Lord, are real, and that we were created and given life and breath by you, and that your greatest desire is to have a loving relationship with us through your Son, Jesus Christ. Lord give us such faith to see beyond sight and superstition, your reality and love.
In Jesus' name, Amen
