Prayer for the bored

(click to enlarge image)

The ‘portrait’ she made at school for father’s day last year adds some insight to this post.

In the last week or so, Moriah has independently decided to include me in her prayers. Without any input from us (that I’m aware of), she has said something similar to this in multiple family prayers recently:

“…and please help dad at his job, because he does boring stuff all day. He sits at a computer and prints out paper and reads and stuff. Help him not be bored.”

The best part about this is that she’s totally sincere. She is concerned that daddy might be getting too bored during the day. Hey, who am I to argue? If she wants to pray for a little excitement at work, an answer to that prayer may or may not turn out to be a good thing!! Hhhmmmn.
