    Great Quote from a J.I. Packer article, referenceing CS Lewis' teaching and how it can help us during these uncertain, post 9/11 times .....

    "War," said Lewis the preacher, "makes death real to us; and that would have been regarded as one of its blessings by most of the great Christians of the past." Then he told his audience of undergraduates that they were at Oxford to study, that the values of being educated were not affected by the fact of war, and so they should get on with their academic work. Thus they would glorify God. For trusting God for the future, and attending to present daily duties and tasks, is the way to honor God in wartime, as at all other times.

    Lewis sharply denies that the experience of war in any form changes everything, as some have been saying that September 11 did. Writing half a century ago of nuclear war, he risked sounding unfeeling in order to enforce the way of wisdom:

    In other words, despite the threat of war, let life—God-given life—go on.

    :good:

    That's a nice one Mat. Where do you find such stuff :confused: ? But still it seems that his mind was dominated otherwise he wouldn't have wrote that.

    Anyway 10 h is far more than enough. I never sleep more than 5 h/day during my summer holiday. All I do is drink a cup of coffee and i'm OK :grin: .

    I had a bad day to. For some reason I jumped over about 20 stairs down and I if didn't know how to land I'd probably broke both of my legs :aww: . (I must be going crazy right? I thought so. :mommy: ). And like that wasn't enough I had a huge fight with my parents.
