Jonesing for Jesus clip 7
So.... Smoking cigarettes?
📍 📍 25 years I was smoking a cigarette,
📍 you know, and I used to think, Hey, you know, I'm smoking cigarettes
📍 📍 because it reduces my anxiety.
📍 📍 Well, if you believe in the Bible,
1 Cor 6:19 talks about respecting our bodies. Your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit within you. The Holy Spirit dwells within you.
You don't want to have this smoky dwelling for the spirit, you know, and you don't want it to smell like a bar after you've been drinking cigarettes and, and, and alcohol and the Holy Spirit's living in you, it's just kind of a messy situation there, but let's say you're not, you know, going into a Bible verse.
So let's just imagine
📍 that...,
"studies have shown"
that smoking increases anxiety.
So the thing I was using to reduce my anxiety and smoking a cigarette was actually increasing all of those anxieties in my life. It was making things worse. So what did I know? I knew nothing. So when I rely upon my own desires and what I want for myself, I start realizing that I am wrong.
I don't know what's right. God does. And if I place my trust in him, if I lean on God and his understanding for what is, is going to be a meaningful, bright. ....AMAZING future with, ... two beautiful daughters and an AMAZING wife and all the people that I meet. He has this plan that when I was doing drugs in the kitchen or, ... smoking cigarettes or drinking that I would never have imagined for myself until I just surrendered to God so that he could take control over my life so that he could guide me and use me as a tool and point me in the direction that he wanted me to be.
And when I serve God, man, all my anxieties are gone.
