Proverbs 23:29 "Who has woe? Who has sorrows? Who has complaints? Who has needless bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes? 30 Those who linger over wine, who go to sample bowls of mixed wine. 31 Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly! 32 In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper. 33 Your eyes will see strange sights and your mind imagine confusing things." What great reasons to stay away from alcohol!!! It’s easy to want to “numb” ourselves from the pain in this world. What I have found, is if I take the pain on in complete awareness and TRUST God in it all. I have PEACE in pain, not just a temporary relief that leads to more pain. I hope this helps you today. You may not struggle with wine, but many of us “numb” ourselves with something.
Do you turn to God or something else in your trouble?
