Friends-Be Cautious With That Term

You really have to be a little cautious these days with whom you are calling, or better yet labeling, your friend. Many of us just throw that term out  there with even casual acquaintances. It seems that we are naturally longing for more and more friends.

This holds especially true if you are in a “vulnerable” state of mind. Perhaps you are struggling with an addiction. Maybe you are having trouble in a relationship and you ask that assumed “friend” for advice on how to mend you relationship.  Suppose that person s coming off their own broken marriage or broken relationship.  They could be angry at the opposite sex and start telling you how to “get even” rather then make amends.

W really have to be careful with who we take advice from. Sometimes people mean well, but what worked for them might be totally opposite for you.

If you need sound loving direction then open up the bible. I like the book of Proverbs. Start reading through that and its unbelievable how what was said thousands of years ago still pertains to today’s events and ailments. Even addictions are addressed from a Christian perspective.

Here at Christian Help For Addiction Online we hope to provide some Godly insights into improving your life. This life will come with trials and struggles, and we have to learn to navigate it in a healthy way. Self-medicating with alcohol and or drugs is not a healthy way, mainly because there are usually health consequences. Start picking up some healthy habits to cope and deal with the stress. If you need guidance in finding a “healthy lifestyle” then seek professional help. It will pay great dividends in the long run.
