Addiction

The deadly and common ones…

 

We know as drugs and alcohol.

 

Promiscuity and gambling.

 

But there are other forms. Equally damaging.

 

Television. Internet. Eating. Shopping.

 

When we wallow in self-pity. Forgetting that we have been freed.

 

When we focus on our sins. Or on other people’s sins.

 

But there are trivial things or activities…

 

Movies. Sports. Collections. Books.

 

Any one of them…when abused.

 

Is addiction.

 

It is so easy to get hooked.

 

Lord, protect me from myself.
