Thank you to Primrose Agbamu for submitting the following poem which she hopes will bring a smile to all computer users!

Dear Lord:
Every single evening as I'm lying here in bed
This very tiny little prayer keeps running through my head.
"God bless all my family wherever they may be,
Keep them warm and safe from harm for they're so close to me.
And God, there is one extra thing I wish that you could do.
Please don't mind me asking but bless my computer too.
Now I know it's not normal to bless a mother board,
But listen just a second while I explain it, Lord'.
You see, that little metal box holds more than odds & ends
Inside those small compartments rest so many of my FRIENDS.
I know so much about them by the kindness that they give
And this little scrap of metal takes me in to where they live.
By faith is how I know them very much the same as you
We share in what life brings to us; from that our friendship grew.
Please, take an extra minute from your duties up above
To bless my whole address book that's filled with so much love!
Wherever else this prayer may reach to each and every friend,
Bless each E-mail in "In box" and the person who hits "Send".
When you update your heavenly list on heaven's own CD-Rom
Remember all who've said this prayer sent up to god.com.
Amen.
