ADDICTED
Hosea 4:11
"Harlotry, wine, and new wine enslave the heart."
There are many things that enslave the heart but sex and alcohol are at the top of the list. Anything that enslaves the heart is an addiction. People can be addicted to their job, to gambling, to sports, to a need for approval and popularity, to money. But there are good addictions. Stephanas was "addicted to the ministry of the saints" (I Corinthians 16:15 KJV). I want my heart to be enslaved like Paul, James, Peter, and Jude – a bondservant of Jesus Christ (Romans 1:1; James 1:1; II Peter 1:1; Jude 1).
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: Anything that enslaves the heart is an addiction – for better or for worse.

Be addicted to the right things today. Love you.
