Default Addictions

There are many types,
DRUG- the illicit and legal type, DRINK-intoxication, TOBACCO- the
nicotine, FOOD- gluttony and the sugar fix, PLEASURE- every latest
fad and gizmo, LEISURE- the art of doing nothing with your GOD
alotted time-sloth, WEALTH- money when there never seems to be
be enough, or knowing when enough is enough,
POWER- to control others, directly or indirectly as in limiting information
FAME- those who just love the adoration of the flash pop of the spot
lights, and the praise heaped up by the insane
NOTORIETY- the infamous variety of fame
SEX, to indulge in all the appetites of sexual congress
FEAR- connected with vanity, where gowing old is seen as wrong
and these all are ESCALATORS, meaning they all need more and more
to top out that inflated bubble of euphoria.

But there is one compelling addiction most aren't even aware of.
that of the addiction to lies. in our age just as in all the previous ones.
THAT SWEET HIGH that helped endorse and excuse that list of others.

Take a look around and see if you can spot the lie-lies and the emmissaries
thereof.Can you? No, for theirs is the art of supple disguise, concealment
with the knack of chameleons, and most can wear the ultimate disguise
of PIETY well.

What about in your religious house- church, seen any liars lurking? Or
in the morning when you stare almost unsure of who is leering back at
you from Lewis Carrol's rear view imager.
They are everywhere, in suits and ties, holy robes, like the POD PEOPLE
from the scifi horror genre. IT is most if not all of us.
HOOKED and ADDLED, looking for our next fix, but how can the junkie
be sure that the stuff they are fixated on is PURE?
How can the JUNKIE even see straight when the shakes begin to quake?

O yes I have heard the lines, that you are only a recreational user-
imbiber and that you can quit at anytime.
LOOK FOLKS there ain't no such thing as just recreational, you are either
a tweeker-user-liar or you are clean and therefore NOT.
And don't think to tell me that you can stop anytime you want, guess
again, you'll find that the barbs are set quite deep even unto the very
marrow of your soul, and that the end of that dear ones AINT NO THRILLER.

Do you know your poison, your poisoner, your supplier, your Achilles heel,
and how to protect that weakness?
But what if your buddy system confessor, your guardian in accountability
your confident is worse off than yourself?
IF they in whom you have placed your trust are as stable as dust, what
have you then?
SO WHAT NOW?
SO HELP YOURSELF and TRUST ONLY GOD,
nobody else is going to.
Not your flag, not your kinsmen, not your friends, not your lovers and
above all, not those trained up wannabies who can't deliver any more
than drivel, much like me.

The bell tolls for us all and when it stops, then there is nought more
to be done, for then the ROCK ARIA has been sung and all would be
kings will be found like ELVIS and JACKSON kneeling before the only
KING whom GOD everlasting SANCTIONED.
How will you be found?
Backstage, or frontstage center screaming LORD Lord, we love you so,
show us how you us ADORE.

LOOK PEOPLE, people will always let you down, even me. But there
is only ONE WORTHY, nay
since ANNO DOMINI there are now TWO WORTHY OF PRAISE, worthy
of TRUST enough into whose hands you can place yourself just as JESUS
did unto GOD from that cross.

Either your investment is secured with them or you are still investing
your futures with fools, shady speculators.
DING DONG the day is now 2 milleniums further on, and how long
did GOD gift Israel to come around to HIS WAY of doing and seeing
TRUTH? Did they pass MUSTER, or did they fail?
How long before GOD examines you, or passes on your EXHUMATION.

Amen Pasha. When you speak commonly like this, more people can read and understand, and even agree. And the purpose of our speaking is simple, in the hopes of trying to be understood. Speaking from a spiritual point of view is fine, but like tongues, without translation, not as many will understand. Liars do abound more these days than it seems in any times past that I can remember. We indeed do be aware that many around us will lie to us, and to trust the Lord instead of any man.
