Having a little prayer with a praying mantis

This morning when I was unlocking the doors at the church, the fellow in this photo caught my attention. There he was on the front doors holding his own little prayer meeting.
Do you know what type of bug this is?
Yes, he’s a Praying Mantis. And he seemed to be giving me a special message.
What was the message?
Answer: It’s always a good idea to floss.
But then we had a moment. It was a brief moment, yes, a fleeting moment. But it was a moment nevertheless. The Praying Mantis seemed to say a little prayer for me.
After a minute, or so, he took up an offering and I thought, “Okay, I get it. Fair is fair.”
