I paid a friend a visit and as we
left her house so she could see me off, we used the route shortest to the main
road. As we came out of her gate we saw three young boys either 19 years or just
above. They were smoking weed and drinking an alcoholic beverage.
Two of them were speaking on the
phone with ladies. I guessed this from the kind of conversation they were
having. I was really surprised they could be intentionally doing this to
themselves, that is be on the road to destroying their own lives. I say this not
to judge them but because I was reminded of visiting a rehab centre. I saw a lot
of young men who were there for drug addiction. Many people are addicted to one
thing or the other. Some are addicted to drugs, food, porn, television and so
on. The list goes on and on.
Instead of getting addicted to the
wrong stuffs we need to have the right addiction. That might sound a bit
impossible but it is not, you can have the right addiction. Get addicted to the
Word of God. It is an addiction that works for your good not your bad. An
addiction that makes your life and that of others turn out very
great!
