First let me clarify I am not an addict to anything but broken people, and I sometimes dislike this burden God has placed in heart. I can hear some words and know they are meant for me to hear.
Today a person whom I enjoyed watch play his drums and talk with was the topic of a conversastion in our church and is also the topic of the community. Adiction is so difficult to understand or even want to try and understand for many. But it is very personal in my life and my heart hurts when I think about how people lable the person such a demon,and never go past the demon to get to the heart.
Jesus Christ commands us to walk amongst these very people and it is most unsettling that we stop when the demon comes out. I am one of those people to a degree.
But my degree is because it affects me my life, my heart ,my head, my everything. My son is an addict and I hurt so bad when I see his number come up on my caller ID, because of fear for death. That is where I loose the battle and the demon wins. I can't meet him in his brokeness. I loose, he looses and the demon wins. crack addiction!!!
What we as followers must do is pray that GOD will come into the addiction and the need for more is filled no longer a crack. Only solid wall,solid steele. Nothing can huff and puff to blow their world away. I pray this for my son, for all the others.
I pray that crack cocaine is removed from this city and those whom bow down to it. I cringe when I hear those words but they love me and they keep coming up in my conversastions with
others. it affects me in my sleep, in my meal time, in my personal time,
I pray we don't see others face fear as they did this past week because of addiction to
C_R_A_C_K. Lets make this city one whom can love beyond the brokeness.
Pray for me as a mom!!!!
