I cannot imagine how many lives I have witnessed being truncated by addictions. Addiction has turned good energetic young men and women who could have been very useful in the development of their country into beasts. They turned beast because of what they have been drinking and smoking. Some of those substances are very toxic to our body. Some of the substances too are damaging their brains such that they can't reason properly.
My advice is that our teaming youths should run away from addiction. They should avoid getting addicted to anything that is harmful. They should love themselves enough to learn to stop themselves from those things which have gotten the control over them. They should be disciplined and self-controlled.
We can be addicted to doing what is good. We can be addicted to loving and caring for people. We can be addicted to reading our Bibles. We can be addicted to praying and winning souls. Being addicted to doing what is good will help our lives. It will turn us into useful and productive citizens.
