Withdrawal
I know about being addicted to nicotine. I was a very heavy smoker who tried and tried to quit only to fail again and again. Often I would go for hours only to be hit by such intense bodily discomfort that I was driven back to a cigarette. High in the mountains in 1979 without a cigarette and without anyone with me who smoked I went through the withdrawal with tremendous difficulty. Well the church has been taking up my time for days now with much travel and no break. I have church tomorrow also and I'm fearful that golf withdrawal will set in. What an ugly sight that might be if I start swinging my arms wildly in the middle of the service. Or maybe while handing out communion I get caught up and my mind starts to wander and I just stop and stare at the green grass out the window. I'm getting embarrassed just thinking about it. It's a good thing I'm really hooked on God more than golf, and I'm not worried about withdrawal there. For where can I go where he is not there to meet me. I do love golf though.
