The Safest Kind of "High" Is Only with God!
Have you ever been out for a stroll and suddenly spotted a banner saying: "Buy anesthetics/drugs to live a problem-free life!" Spoiler alert: It’s a total trap, Guys!
Speaking of substance abuse and illegal drugs, Proverbs 26:21–22 gives us a gentle "wake-up call":
As charcoal to burning coals and wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome person for kindling strife. Well, drugs are exactly like that! You think they’re coming in as a heroic calming agent when you’re stressed, but it turns out they’re just gasoline setting your entire future ablaze until it’s reduced to ashes. Instead of solving anything, your problems just flare up even more!
In Lamentations 3:1–66, the Prophet Jeremiah also felt his life was "pitch black" and completely shattered. But the difference is that when he was broken, he didn’t look for quick escapes using weird substances.
He knew that "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases!" Drugs only give you a fake, two-hour high, and the bonus prizes are a splitting headache, addiction, and a crying wallet.
Why settle for knock-off peace when you have VIP, direct access to the Creator of the universe? Hebrews 1:1–14 explains that Jesus is the radiance of God’s glory! He sustains all things.
If the Creator of galaxies is big enough to hold the entire universe together, do you really think He can't handle your life when things get a little complicated?
Psalm 102:1–28 also tells us that heaven and earth will perish, but God remains the same, and His years have no end.
So, whether you're 18 (and feeling all those intense emotions), or in your 30s, 40s, or 50s (and stressing over installments and bills): Stop looking for escapes in drugs! It doesn't just destroy your body; it makes you lose your sparkle in the eyes of your partner and God.
Want to stay cool, look sharp, and win people over? Don’t get high on chemicals. Soar high with the pure, legal, side-effect-free love of God that lasts for all eternity!
