For the Order of the Computer Analyst
The ultimate computer analyst is knowledgeable in all computers, whether it be a Mac or PC, managing the system, quickly finding a solution to a problem, and keeping every computer updated with the latest software. A computer analyst must be diligent in keeping up with every task, working fast to keep everything running smoothly, and respecting everyone even those that are technologically handicapped. In everything a computer analyst does, he should do to the glory of God, with joy and humbleness, and with a willing heart to serve.

Ballad
Hurling through the trees,
A creature stirs in the night.
Nearing the town with haste,
All shake with fright.
Listening with anxiety,
All waiting for it to emerge.
Not know what’s to come,
Insanity begins to surge.
Swiftly the creature comes,
Closing in on the town.
Horror fills the people’s hearts.
Ordeal is coming down.
Only seconds before it shows,
Leaping for the tree.
Startling the people,
Stood a little monkey.

Screwtape Analysis (Final Draft)
Screwtape says, “We can drag our patients along by continual tempting, because we design them only for the table” (Lewis 40). Throughout the book, Screwtape suggests to Wormwood to use many temptations against the Patient to lead him off course. The Screwtape Letters shows how human nature is full of temptations that are constantly used by the devil to mislead a person.
A major time when temptation is used to draw a person away from God is during the trough periods. Screwtape clearly states, "…the Trough periods of the human undulation provide excellent opportunity for all sensual temptations..." (Lewis 43) During this time, a human is feeling emptiness and depression from a loss or anything that has not gone according to plan. To fill this emptiness, the devil provides sexual temptations along with other temptations to draw the person away. The devil is very cunning in the ways he provides these temptations and when to target a weakened person. A Christian should especially be aware of this time. The devil is constantly targeting Christians and uses lust many times. An example of an actual time was Samson and Delilah. In Judges 16:6, “…Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength [lieth], and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee,” Delilah tempted Samson to find his weakness and turn him in to his enemies for money. She does this four times and he eventually fell into sin. Temptations are dangerous for many because it causes great loss and affects many people.
The Screwtape Letters shows that during difficult times, the temptations to sin is high. The devil is constantly working to ensure that a person especially Christians would fall to the many temptations. Once someone falls into temptation, it is difficult to get out of it. It’s a never-ending cycle of sinful desires that continually grow throughout time. This is the main motive of the devil in order to take down whoever that has fallen into temptation with him in the end.

Screwtape Analysis (Rough Draft 2)
The Screwtape Letters emphasizes the spiritual warfare over human souls. Screwtape says, “Do not think lust an exception. When the present pleasure arrives, the sin (which alone interests us) is already over.” (Lewis 76-77) Throughout the book, Screwtape suggest to Wormwood to use many temptation of lust against the Patient to lead him off course. The Screwtape Letters shows how human nature is full of temptations of lust that are constantly used by the devil to mislead a person.
A major time when temptation of lust is used to draw a person away from God is during the Trough periods. Screwtape clearly states this with this quote, "…the Trough periods of the human undulation provide excellent opportunity for all sensual temptations..." (Lewis 43) During this time, a human is feeling empty and depression from a lose or anything that has not gone according to plan.

It’s a never-ending cycle of sinful desires of the flesh that continually grow throughout time. However, God is there for those that look toward Him for help. Yet a Christian should be highly aware of the devil with his trickery and stay close to God. Although it may be hard to do so in the “trough periods”, there are many things such as godly friends and the Bible that could remind us to follow God and avoid lust.
