Paul's Door Problem

Apparently my friend Paul walked right into a door while half-asleep the other night.

I offered him the following prayer:

"Dear God,

Last night, I had a lapse in judgement, and I walked into a door. It hurt real, real bad.

Please give me the wisdom to see the door for what it truly is - a door, made of something solid, capable of causing great pain if struck accidentally.

Please grant me permission to walk, in the future, peacefully and without unnecessary pain, through the doorway and not into the door.

Forgive me if I caused the door (a real, if simple, expression of your grace and might) any pain, and allow me safe passage through the door from this point forward.

Thank you LORD."
