Ok so when I said that I wasn't going to write soon I was wrong!
I blame Gregory of Nyssa!
Now some of you will know that Gregory was born around 335 AD, so how can he have had anything to do with my writing now!. Well I've spent all my free time in the last two weeks trying to write and assignment. A 2000 word sermon on Gregory of Nyssa. I completed it late last night but woke up this morning completely exhausted. The sort of bone weary exhaustion.
Because I was exhausted I have taken today off and so read a few things on the web.
And I got rid of my TV tonight.
I've been spending far to much time watching not whatever happened to be on and decided a while a go that I would rather spend my time reading and maybe writing.
The house feels a bit quiet but I guess I'll get used to it. I have been using the TV to listen to digital radio, for some reason I am in a radio black spot for non digital radio. My plan is to use the internet to listen to the radio when I want to, and I can also use the PC to play CD's so the house won't be silent all the time.
I might even get chance to go to bed early occasionally!
That's the plan tonight - go to bed so I can be up early in the morning to start on the next assignment. I have to do 6000 words on the purpose of prayer and worship before the 24th May. I do have Monday off to work on it as well as tomorrow and next week end but I might have to consider getting an extension!
I have to stop wondering why I'm doing this course and just get on with it. Wise people that know me seem to think it is the right thing to do. When I agreed to do it (nearly a year ago now) I thought that God was calling me to do it, so I really should just get on with it. Maybe with the odd stop here.

Keep your chin up and don't let anything pull you down. By the way, that was a really brave thing to do ~ tossing out the tv. Just don't toss out the computer. :)

Let's hear from you more often. Preach us a sermon,if you must.
Good move, getting rid of the TV. I got rid of mine five years ago and it has made our life much richer. It took me about a year to get totally used to not having it around ... good luck
