Got little sleep so was a zombie. Great clinical experience, but felt like a dead man by 3pm. Got home and curled up under a blanket on the sofa and hung out with Alan Bills himself. Later got to see the trailer for the pantomime I've been helping to write...extremely well produced and excellently shot and written.
It made me think - the seven 'deadly' sins are so popular an idea...but why? It makes me sad to contemplate because sin is implicitly defiant against Jesus and against other human beings and against ourselves. It's only because of what Jesus did on the cross that we are set free from chains and damage of envy, lust, greed, wrath, pride, sloth, gluttony. Imagine instead being glad for your friend's blessing and content with what we have...the list goes on...a life of good sex with the right person with God's smile over your marriage bed...enough money and a roof over your head - not so much to make you sick or empty or deprive another...anger that leads to good and not evil...seeing yourself for who you are and not mistaking yourself for God...food enough so you do not make yourself sick or fat, but are healthy and happy...imagine a world where the things God adores, happen...
