Sins from a Recliner

Jul 24, 2012 11:40

What conclusion can we draw from this? Which sin rules? How many sins?

It was today's plan to go see the movie Magic Mike, before it left the theatre. Yeah, I'm the only one who has procrastinated this long. Do I get chalk points for resisting lust, but do those get erased because of the procrastinating? And I really wanted it to be today, since there is free popcorn on Tuesdays ! Gluttony, and stingy - or is that frugal? (a virtue) I have now missed the early morning show - Sloth or poor time management (which is poor stewardship). And now getting to that second show would require me getting out of this recliner (sloth again), and off of Facebook without my crops being harvested in my game (addiction = a form of idolatry). If I waited until PM, the movie would be more expensive, and would surely lead me to guilt over spending the money, which would reawaken bitterness over who caused all this post-divorce poverty. (So lump on unforgiveness to my sin pile, along with ingratitude towards God for His continued blessings.)

It is not turning out to be a good day. All this just for wishing to see Matt Bomer smile.
