I am seriously skeptical of religion as a whole.

Yet when someone tells me that they are going to pray for me, genuinely, with nothing but love in their hearts, I just smile and say thank you….

…because I’m not an insufferable jackass.

On another similar note, tonight my young step daughter asked me to pray with her before bed because she said it helps keep her bad dreams away. I agreed because once again I’m not an insufferable jackass. I kneeled with her, closed my eyes, put my hands together, and repeated/listened to what she prayed. She said all kinds of nice things, even thanking Jesus for my new job (for a while, I was struggling to find one). She ended by asking God to keep bad dreams away from all of us and went to bed happy.

I may not be much a believer but it warmed my heart. Let people find comfort in their prayer. x
