How Should Christians View Addiction?

My prayers are with Whitney Houston as she battle her demons of addiction....there  reports that Whitney  have re-enter rehab.....if you never had a love one to battle the demons of  addiction  you really don't understand  the  kinda of pain that comes with addiction....especially when that love one is a Christian......when you hold up the banner of Christianity people expect your struggles to be some what  easy..... the addiction for the Christian is unnatural and I believe  it's so much harder.....because we are instruct “to occupy (oneself) with or involve (oneself) in Christ" until His return....it's hard to do this when your heart desires are some place else....we are to “love the Lord, God, with all  our heart and with all our soul and with all our might” 

For the Christian to be addicted  to  anything other than Jesus  Himself is wrong......Jesus  is the only thing we can (and should) occupy ourselves with habitually....to do so with anything else draws us away from Him and displeases Him.....He alone is worthy of our complete attention, love, and service....to offer these things to anything or anyone else is idolatry....when Jesus says He won't it all that's what He mean.Got Question?org.
