Dad's Ramblings -- Addicted

ADDICTED
I Corinthians 16:15-16
 
"I urge you, brethren – you know the household of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the ministry of the saints – that you submit to such, and to everyone who works and labors with us."
 
The household of Stephanas had a passion to serve the Lord and His church. The old King James Version renders "devoted" as "addicted" – addicted to the ministry. Addictions are often a negative force in a person's life. They are usually life-controlling and cause problems. Being addicted to serving the Lord is a positive thing and brings blessing. I can't think of a better "addiction."
 
TODAY'S THOUGHT: Devotion to ministry brings blessing.
 
Have an "addicted" life. Love you.
