Prayer when Gmail is down

Sometimes we are faced with a sudden outage of Gmail and other Google services. A disaster when you ‘live’ in The Cloud. That is why I wrote this short prayer for help:

Dear God,

You created clouds

to liven up the skies

Man created cloud computing

but it sometimes dies

Gmail went off-line again,

I’m sure You heard our cries

Help us to stay calm and pray

that it will soon reprise.

Thanks in advance,

Fr. Roderick

P.S. God, before I forget: if you need to reach me, don’t use Gmail – try Twitter (and save us from the fail whale!)

  2. Father, you have a way with words. That is an excellent prayer, especially considering that my own prayer would land me in the confessional for sure…

    Keep up the good work, thanks to your “Secrets of the LOTR” I cam back home to the Church.
