Welcome to A Time for God, the Saint Louis University Prayerbook. If you are a first time visitor you may wish to learn more about the prayerbook. We encourage you to find a prayer for your reflection and to submit your own.
Thank you for visiting.
We thank you, God, for the opportunity to participate in this basketball game. For it is Your gift of our basketball talent and our response of hard work, practice, and teamwork that have brought us here.
Today, we play by man-made rules and, at game’s end, we accept the outcome of the scoreboard on the wall. We are reminded, too, of Your scoreboard, the scoreboard etched in our hearts, which asks 3 questions:
(1) Did we play fair?
(2) Did we play hard and to the best of our abilities?
(3) And most of all, did we have fun?
We play this game, through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
