I just sat next to a guy in the library who spent about 45minutes on betting websites, putting bets on who would win the first set of a tennis match, what the score would be at half-time of a football match or who would win the world match play golf. I have seen him before, always on betting websites.
It made me pretty sad.
But also reminded me of addictions that I have had and do have.
There is freedom from addiction in Christ. That is part of his hope on the cross. We no longer need to live lives of the flesh, but lives of the spirit, in tune to his work and his ways.
I hope that one day I can tell others that when they are sat next to me in the library and it will change their lives.
Being a Christian isn't simple about growth, and works, it is about complete transformation.
YES PLEASE
