There are times when I could do with a little less free will.
Theologically speaking I believe that part of being created in the image of God is that we have free will. The Fall, sin and a broken world are the results of that. Such is the price of not being a robot. As I age I am experiencing more frequent bouts of that fallen world.
Skin cancer is becoming an annual rite. It is mainly an irritation at this point but I am getting the scars to show that irritation.
Pimples are coming back.
Joint aches are an every morning event. Some days they will hit me in the middle of a nap. Why? So far they generally go away after a time but if you see me walking at the right time you will want to laugh.
One of the positive spins on all this is that the cancer has been benign, the pimples fade and the aches go into hiding. For that I am grateful. That is a choice I make which is a part of that free will I was talking about.
Make the right choices in attitude as well as cuisine. It will bring blessings.
