Newsflash: we all hate Mondays, we all love weekends, and we don’t mean to be insensitive but neither Jesus Christ nor your recently deceased relatives are actually on Facebook, MySpace, or Twitter. So talking to them via status updates doesn’t actually work.
If the Christian God exists He is
by definition on Facebook, what with being a) omniscient and b) immanent in us as the Holy Spirit; sending a message to God via Facebook is on the same level as spoken prayer - not actually
necessary, but it may help organise your thoughts.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift, and that's why they call it the present.
Stupid quote, but accurate in a roundabout way - quick trawl suggests present "this time" and present "gift" are from the same root; the prefix pre- in present is "before", as in "this time before you" or "this gift before you."
