Words of Drunkard







Proverbs 23: 35

"They hit me", you will say, "but I'm not hurt! They beat me, but i don't feel it! When will i wake up so i can find another drink?"

Usually drunkards drink because they have problems. They drink becuase (they think) it makes the pain disappear. But drinking can only temporarily relieve pain, but it does not solve the problem so it just comes back. When it does, they look for another drink, not really wanting to deal with it. Everyday, drink after drink, problem after problem, they all come. Drinking not only solve a problem. it adds problems to you. Drinking is not a solution. It's another problem. It alters a person's way of thinking, so they lose their normal state of mind. It makes them do and think of stupid and crazy things which they will regret or get frustrated over. It affects their family and friends. Also, it destroys their health, particularly their liver.

People who use drinking to relieve their pain, lack faith in the Lord. That's why their problems won't go away, but instead, it adds up. They forget that Jesus is our Savior. Him dying on the cross is not only Salvation for us at that time, but it is forever and ever.

God loves us. He knows every single cell in our body. He sees everything that we do, when we stand, when we sit, when we sleep, when we love, when we lie, when we are in pain. Everything! He hears our cries, even when we don't pray about it, and even when we hide it. He is God, Our creator. What else can you expect. He is a Loving, El shaddai (powerful and all sufficient), Our Mighty God. He is greater than our problems. When we have a God with us, there is nothing that can stand in our way. All it takes is Faith. Love God. Pray. Have Faith. and Believe that He can solve our problems for us.

Drinking may have good effects too. But the disadvantages are more than the advantages. Anything in excess is bad. Drink moderately ! ;)!

Godbless you!
