The day is fast approaching.

Our Hebrew brothers and sisters can already tweet their prayers, according to this report:

Want to tweet God?

An Israeli university student has opened a Twitter site, twitter.com/thekotel, where prayers can be sent for placement in the crevices of Jerusalem’s Western Wall, a Jewish holy site that faithful believe provides a direct line to the Almighty.

“I take their prayers, print them out and drive to Jerusalem to put them in the Western Wall,” said Alon Nir, a resident of Tel Aviv.

He said he hoped his initiative on the popular Internet social networking service, where users post brief messages known as tweets, would be “beneficial to people all over the world.”

Nir promises to deliver the prayers — each no longer than a tweet’s maximum 140 characters — on a regular basis.
