Jonesing for Jesus clip 10.2

The questions I asked earlier is like, you know, what are you addicted to? Do you let your addiction rule over your life? Do you submit to your addiction? Do you live your life in service to your addiction? And again, you know, who is the master and who is the slave?

  📍 We are made in the image of God and we were not mistakenly given this addiction nature.

 Whatever it is, find something in yourself that you can relate to, that you do constantly. It's the thing you wake up in the morning thinking about. It's the thing you're not happy about until you get done. And think to yourself, is that my addiction? Is that what rules over me? Is my life not complete until I do that thing?

Whatever that thing is. For smokers, I need that morning cigarette fix. For an alcoholic, I'm going to drink at 8 in the morning. Let's do it.

  📍 But, if we identify ourselves as Christian,

  📍 if we find our identity in Jesus Christ,

  📍 do we wake up and we need to read the Bible?

  📍 Do we wake up and we need to pray?

 However you choose to pray is your business. Whenever you choose to pray, that's your business too. But if it's the first thing you feel like doing, if that's what you crave, if that's what you desire, if that's what moves you when you wake up, thank you, God, I'm alive.

You might be addicted to God, which is cool, which is way cool. It's good to be addicted to God.
