Just reading through some away messages–because my social life has reached a new low–and I saw something.
YAY!!!! I got cast as Eve in Children of Eden! God is soooo good!!!
Is it just because I go to a “Christian” university that such things appear? It makes me wonder when people proclaim God’s glory only when they’re getting what they want. It reminds me of C.S. Lewis’ remarks:
What would really satisfy us would be a God who said of anything we happened to like doing, ‘What does it matter so long as they are contented?’ We want, in fact, not so much a Father in Heaven as a grandfather in heaven–a senile benevolence who, as they say, ‘like to see young people enjoying themselves’, and whose plan for the universe was simply that it might be truly said at the end of each day, ‘a good time was had by all’.
-The Problem of Pain, p31.
Hmm… indeed. Well, enough for now. Off to peek in on BlogNashville with a panel including Glenn Reynolds.
funny thing about ‘children of eden’ is that it..to put it delicately..ahem…sucks raw tail. esp. if its a student run production done in extreme low budget style. also, eve gets cast out from eden and bears the initial brunt of the Fall. did i mention the show blows?
