Sweet Addiction

Brett Davison
We are, all of us, addicted
Addicted to fleshly pleasures
Addicted to hate
Addicted to ourselves
Addicted to approval

Addicted to sin
Addicted to ash
Addicted to the Enemy
Addicted to evil

There is a sweeter addiction
An addiction to the Lord
An addiction to His love
An addiction to all that He loves
An addiction to His worship
An addiction to His comfort
An addiction to His message
An addiction to His passion
An addiction to His fire

I want to be more addicted
To be addicted to the world's seething hatred
To be addicted to persecution
To be addicted to His discipline
To be addicted to His wok
To be addicted to my sweat
To be addicted to His desires

I want to share this sweet addiction

Because after all, He is addicted too...
He is addicted to His creation
His addicted the sinful
He is addicted to the hurt
He is addicted to the hateful
He is addicted to the doubtful
He is addicted to the greedy
He is addicted to the selfish
He is addicted to His adulterous bride
He is addicted to those who would spit upon Him
He is addicted to the captives of the Enemy
He is addicted to us

He died for His addiction
He rose again for His addiction
His heart breaks for His addiction

What will you do for your sweet addiction?
