Wormwood's patient became a Christian for the second time. He had drifted for a little while as you have probably noticed from my last few entries. Because of this Wormwood got in trouble with Screwtape.
Wormwood's patient became a Christian a second time because he went for a walk by himself on a beautiful day without his new friends. While he was taking the walk he was able to not think about all the things that he would have thought about had he been with his new friends, things he shouldn't have to think about. Having a good time playing golf or taking a walk and having a picnic is not bad as long as your not doing it for the wrong reasons. It can be good too if you can enjoy God's creation and praise Him and be thankful for what He has given you.
Ahh. The value of some quiet time to think. I could take a lesson from this. Thanks Grace. :)
