I’m embarrassed to admit this but there are times I use prayer as a short cut.

“God, help me loose this weight.” (Prayer said while dusted with sugar cookie crumbs.)

Prayer is one way that I can connect with God but it isn’t meant to save me from action or activity.  So if you’ll excuse me, there’s a rowing machine with my name on it.  Because I already found the cookies.
