Fighting the demons

For "addicts" the demons can be a lot of different things other than Satan himself.  It could be  "the urge"  or "the trigger" or maybe even the smell of a familiar scent  that you had when you were using. Perhaps a chemical smell of some-kind would  trigger your brain into having a craving, you wouldn't even know it was happening  until you found yourself on your way to score, that's when something happens to  us and we have what we call  "a moment of clarity" . This moment of clarity, to me is when God speaks to us and kind of gives us the  option to "get out" of  this  obsessiveness of scoring. Even the act of attempting to  use has an attractive romanticizing process to it.   If your like me, you know what  that  is,  you know that feeling. This is the feeling that's really hard to fight,   because at this point-  you haven't really done anything yet.  But your flesh senses  "it's coming"  This is where we must stop and say "God help me to resist this  temptation"  The Lord always comes through for us in this time of desperation. Although, we  are the ones that  have to make the decision. It's literally good verses evil. I pray that good triumphs over evil in your life today, and in mine as well. Michael Angelo
