I am addicted to alcohol and trying to get into treatment. It costs 50,000 dollars a month in the US. I do not have 50,000 dollars so I have to wait 6 to 8 weeks for a free bed. Some may want to believe I desire this...fine. I still need treatment. As Christian people, mercy is forefront. Europe refuses to profit from sin tax - they choose not to profit off addiction and it works. I am desperate - any suggestions?
Bless you my friend for asking for prayer...
You are a brave soul, you know already that you will get some legalistic ,condemning, negative posts. Just step over them brother.
Sorry to hear that you are back down this hole again.
You were doing so well, can you pin point why it got you again?
I also blame myself, I have been so 'earthbound ' by my own body (heart) being in rebellion , ...Dave and I dropped the ball in continuing to pray for you. Forgive us.
I am sure your depression comes from feeling as if you have failed again. Hey, some are addicted to booze , some people are addicted to food, others pornography.( I know of many pastors who have confessed this..) some people addicted to gambling.
The attacks come hot and heavy.
The devil is a cruel slave master Ron....
Hitting our knees for you my brother. Never lose your hope.
Job 14:7-9
7 For
there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
8 Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, and the stock thereof die in the ground;
9 Yet through the scent of water
it will bud, and bring forth boughs like a plant."
I think I remember where you live...I 'think' my daughter and son in law are in your area. They are in their late fifties ...they are good loving strong people...you need a support team.
I will PM you .... x
