God wants to be our "Drug-of-choice"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why did God design us in such a way that we can easily become "dependent" on things? Wrong question, the better question is to ask, "Since we are so easily dependent, on what SHOULD we be dependent?"
That's easy: God. He wants us to be dependent on Him.
That way we do nothing without Him, through our weaknesses He is shown strong, We rely upon "Abba, Father" and live in faith focused on Him. He doesn't want us to get rid of our "dependent" personalities, nor does He want us to transfer our "drug-of-choice" from one thing to another. He wants to be our "Drug-of-choice". The "high" felt in an addiction is only a taste, gotten in a twisted manner, of what God has in store for us.
His 'high's' won't be so short-term, nor will we be incapacitated during them. We'll still be aware of our surroundings, and still be functioning. We'll just be very, very satisfied with Him! --Author Unknown
