Sin sickens the body
An illustration of this
Mother calls that dinner is ready
Mom ,dad, brother and sister sit down to this wonderful meal that mom has fixed
Everything is fine until brother asks Dad can I use the car tonight?
And sister says, no you can’t use the car tonight
You used the car last night, its my night to use the car
And brother says to sister You shut up I wasn’t talking to you I was talking to Dad
And dad says Don’t use the words shut up, we don’t speak that way in our house
And then brother says well she started it
Dad then shouts listen you kids I said shut up
And mother says you just told them not to say shut up
Dad then tells mom You shut up
And then brother and sister and father and mother are, just like that, in an argument
Dinner is getting cold, finally they eat a few bites
Everybody gets up and goes off somewhere
And about 30 minutes later somebody says
Has anybody seen the Pepto-Bismol?
What has happened?
Our bodies have reacted to our hearts, our minds, our spirits
Sin sickens the body
