Using “Let me Pray About It” as a Euphemism for “No”

I love when someone asks us to help out at church and instead of saying, “No,” we say, “Let me pray about it.” Really? I asked you to help me clean up tomorrow night after youth group, and you feel like that’s something you need to run path the Savior of the world? He’s going to give you the thumbs-up for thumbs-down on whether or not you can help me stack chairs for seven minutes”
