Addictions

Addictions, most of us have faced them or will face them. Some of us have a strong will and that is a blessing from God, while others may need Gods grace to help them overcome addictions. If you start making excuses for doing something that you know you shouldn't be doing, it's probably an addiction, If you can't tell your kids what it is you're doing, it's probably an addiction and most of all if you try and hide it or feel bad after doing it, it's probably an addiction. Addictions come in many forms so while you may not be strung out on cocaine, you might be addicted to posting pics online. Whatever the case is Isaiah 53:5 says in short "with his stripes we are healed". GLORY BE TO GOD. What this means is that whatever the addiction is if you commit your will to God you will be healed because the stripes represent the beating that Jesus took on the cross for our sins, because he did this his spirit now lives in us and we have the power to break these addictions.
