Sin

"If ever, my God, it should happen through ignorance and
passion that I persist in desires contrary to thine, may I
be disappointed and punished, not by thy justice, but by
pity and great mercy."
                                   Pere de Caussade

If I trade what I want most for what I want for a moment (or what I want for dinner) suffering always follows. I think it's automatic, and God may not even need to put it on His to do list.

Really positive, thought provoking comment.

Reminds me of Karl Menninger's comment, "God may forgive you your
sins, but your nervous system won't."
