The Right Addiction

I woke up really early this morning, which isn't unusual for me...Kramer has trained me well!!!
Anyway, for some reason the word "Addiction" was the first thing to pop into my mind. I thought this rather strange, as I couldn't think of a reason to dwell on this subject so early in the morning!
But, naturally when you are trying to chase a thought out of your head, it seems to be even more determined to dominate your mind! So be it. The more I thought of addiction, the more I realized that there was message these thoughts were filtering into my head. We are faced every day with some type of addiction in our lives, be it a good one or a bad one. Addiction can be viewed as a serious problem, according to what the person is addicted to. Alchohol, drugs, pornography and overeating are a few addictions that are bad and most suffering from these need help to recover.
I want to address an addiction today that is a good addiction and one that we can be proud to have and one that requires a daily regimen to develope to full potential!!! Are you ready, folks?
I think we all need to be addicted to Jesus! We need to be craving His approval and longing to know Him in a personal way and have the desire to tell others of His love and constant care for us. To keep this addiction alive and thriving there are things we need to do every day. One would be to read His Word and to encourage others to do the same. Addictions are catching, you know, so we need to be sure and expose everyone we know to our addiction in hope that they will become addicted and pass it on to their friends! Next, we must evaluate the status of our addiction on a weekly basis by attending church and praying that our addiction will only become worse and that we crave to attend every week instead of just once in a while when we feel like we need a little dose of faith. Last, once the addiction to Jesus is rooted well into our systems, we need to cultivate the growth by daily praying for ourselves and others to seek His Love, His Kindness and His Saving Grace in order for an epidemic to break out and then we can only hope that a cure is never found and that we will forever be addicted to The True Love of our lives!
That's it for today, folks..........thanks for your time and have a good day!
