staying sane with RBT

On the phone to my mum, my mum does that thing where she relays what I say to my dad,
'Ron, Ron, she says, she's not bothered about all that, Ron, she says she's just interested in not being a complete and utter nutter...'
There is much laughter.
When I put the phone down I stare at it.

The Institute of Psychology did a study on people born in 1972, basically those people exposed to drugs in their young age (before the age of 18) haven't faired well in age in terms of intelligence.
The comedian in me conjures a picture of a government official desperately trying to find some forty year olds without a fried egg for a brain.

But they don't have to tell me, I can produce the statistics anecdotally...the just say no generation, said yes, alright, go on then...even The Institute of Psychology don't have the full story and even if they did, I guess they wouldn't tell us.

And that's what falling for lies does to you; it wounds you, it grieves you, it robs you blind.

What did I learn about Jesus in this month's RBT...?
I don't ever, ever, ever...infinity, ever want to lose him, not ever.

1 Thessalonians 1:4 For we know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you, 5 because our gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction.

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:5-7
