Watching You

Dear God,
How often would you say you are ACTUALLY watching? The whole time? 90% of the time? Do you transcend time? Do you watch me go to the bathroom? Do you watch other planets? Were you watching the dinosaurs? Are you watching everyone get H1N1?

Watching back,

The Painter of Light

Dear God,
Do you appreciate the painter of light? Are the walls of your paradise lined with the sensational scenes of Mr. Thomas Kinkade? Is something this beautiful bringing glory to your kingdom, or does the mass replication of such beauty deteriorating its quality? What is your stance on art? Is it all vanity?

Does this style perpetuate the sensational aesthetics common in Caucasian Lutheran congregations common rooms? Does it please you when people labor hours over wooden crates to transport their Kinkade collections from estate to estate?

Praying for a Kinkade mustache,
