“There is good news and there’s better news – the good news is that there is a God. The better news is that it’s not you!” James Martin
I am not sure which is worse, just plain forgetting there is a God or thinking that I am He/She. Reluctantly, I admit to both. Neither failure of mine makes sense of course. In fact, both defy the ample empirical proof. Life, certainly life as I know it, is full of evidence that there is a God. My frequent mistakes in life are certainly ample evidence that I am not God. Still, I seem to forget one or both of those points from time to time. In that sense, I guess, “Thank You” (in response to the many blessings God showers me with) and “Duh!” (exclaimed after yet another mistake I make) are powerful reminders of God’s existence as well as genuine forms of prayer.
