Screwtape Letters “Chapters I-IV Questions"

1.What are your "daily pinpricks"?  For myself, spiral paper eats at something deep inside me.
My "daily pinpricks" or pet peeves are a wide array of different things. I am sometimes OCD with organizing things neatly and making them look good. Another daily pinprick is when people ask questions that have obvious answers. It also annoys me when people ask me questions that either don't make sense or that they should already know.

2.What are you passive about because of the "ordinariness of things"?  Is it your family?  Your life?  Your church or school?
When I hear "ordinariness of things" I think of everyday life becoming dull. This usually happens at home and school. By around the third quarter for school it seems like the same thing everyday and leaves a dull feeling.This sometimes leads me to becoming lazier in school. This also applies to chapel as it usually ends up being the same messages. At home, I almost follow a routine that is inevitable because of how my days go.

3.What do you think about the following quote?  "The Enemy allows this disappointment to occur on the threshold of every human endeavour.”

The quote refers to how God leaves people to be dissatisfied with their life when they encounter trials. This may look true to people who don't understand God but people who do know him know that this is not true. He is a just God who can sometimes say no to our prayers and gives us trials to show us His glory. He has already given us the ultimate gift which is eternal life.
