At Home in Vermont

Thursday, October 26, 2006 - TV and Daily life

    I gave up on the "spiritual fast" quite some time ago. We had many disruptions. However, I did get exactly what I needed from it....... I felt that I had been depending too much on a little relaxing tv time to get through tough times. And yet, it got to be too much. Have you ever eaten too many cookies and realized it was harming you? It was kind of like that. We stop eating the cookies until we can control our spirit! I've come to realize that TV can be a good tool, but only when used in the right way. If we are surrounded by an ungodly world, perhaps, at times, we might be refreshed by watching an old movie from the 1940's when home life was valued? Or perhaps a movie set in an earlier century where everyone went to church and read the Bible in their homes. I've found these kinds of movies to be "gentle" recreation and they've helped me to just take a break from "life" so I could move on, and get motivated again!
    A note to my guests: Thank you so much for your comments. It is so nice to find a note here and there from those of you who have taken the time to visit.
