Last night when I was walking home I saw a man who was heavily intoxicated stumble into a wall rather hard. He continued to walk in my direction and, as he stumbled past me, he formed the cross over his body a few times and seemed to be mouthing some prayers. Then I prayed too. Kind of. I formed the cross over my own body and said, “If you’re up there, I’m prayin’ for him too.” Then I laughed at myself and wondered, if He really is up there, if my half prayer/half joke would be enough for Him to keep that guy safe. I hope it was.
