Drug Abuse
Ephesians 5:18,
Do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit.
What kind of examples are we if we go around drunk or stoned? What will people think of Christians then? They definetly will not want to hear anything you say about God. They'll probably think you are just another one of those 'good for nothing teens', but WE'RE NOT! You may have heard this every single day, but drugs will cause you to go to ruin even though it seems good at first.
Ecclesiates 4:9-10
Two people are better than one,
Because they have a good reward for their labor,
For if they fall, one will lift up his companions.
But woe to him who is alone when he falls,
For he has no one to help him up.
If you are dealing with a drug (or substance) abuse. Seek help from a counselor, a pastor, a youth minister, your parents, etc. Don't go through this alone. You don't have to. God doesn't want to see his children suffer with the cares of this world. Our bodies are the temples of the Holy spirit, so we need to honor God with our bodies (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). God loves you so much and you need to always remind yourself that he does. You can get through your problems, but you need to seek his help.
Take the time to read these Scriptures:
1 Peter 5:7-8,
Proverbs 23:19-21,
