Bible Note: Hank, Dear brother you always seem to hit certain things right on the head and this is one of them. October will make sixteen years clean and sober for me. I will be in recovery for the rest of my life.But that's good,that's God's Grace and you will never hear me complain about that! So it's obvious why I dont drink anymore and I dont encourage others to do so,but niether do I judge. Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 6:12- All things are lawful for me,but not all things are profitable. (NASB) At the end of this verse Paul states but I will not be mastered by anything.The best thing we can do with these individuals is to love em and scripturaly admonish and educate them. That's what folks did for me and that's one of the reasons I'm still here today.To speight I would highly encourage you to love this person and be a friend.Get in this persons life and as God gives opportunity open up the bible to them. But do it with a 2 Timothy 2:15 heart. Hank my heart goes out to you my brother, I could have easilly been that drunk driver and I am all to aware of what my drinking did to my former wife and my kids and anyone who was in my life. Hank I am very grateful to God for what you bring to this forum,folks like you,Doc,kalos and others to numerous to mention in the remaining space help bring old war horses like me back to reality when we need it the most. Love ya brother. YBIC, lionheart |
