“Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you and you will honor me.” Psalm 50:15
“For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to ALL people. It teaches us to say “NO” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and Godly lives in this present age.” Titus 2:11,12

The world around us is in a strategic war waged against humanity in the name of positioning for power. Yes, as Lonnie Budro’s poem says, it looks exactly like substance addiction. Addiction encompasses many faces, alcohol, illegal drugs, hoarding possessions or animals, abuse out of insecurity, thirst for having the upper hand, self harm…. all in search of feeling in control. It all equals addiction to Power within, but it’s aligned with the one who comes to kill, steal, lie, and destroy.

You do know there is a greater Power within to grab hold to, right? It’s the Power of the Holy Spirit. That Spirit within that resonates Truth, Peace, Love, Healing, Forgiveness, the ability to Warrior against Addictions of any kind with Prayer, Faith in A Higher Divine that can Save All, Doing what is Good rather than Easy or harmful, Helping not hurting others… As worldly leaders seek the Power to Control at all costs, there is no one to pick up the pieces of such devastation from an earthly view. It’s become every human for themselves as the leaders become hyper-focused with jockeying for whose going to be in charge of the perceived minions. Those that pay the price of the power hungry are the average family, the poor, the children, the homeless, the mentally ill, the addict, You and Me!

Who are You Aligned with in your Spirit? That determines who you align with on earth and how you respond to everyone and everything on whether it’s friends, family, groups, or leaders. This is not about religious organizations or denominations. It’s about You and Jesus, personally. Time to take a long, hard look at the Truth of where you are and who you’ve aligned with in life. Never Forget that Power is an Addiction, Too! Align Your Spirit with the Divine, Today, and lead others in your life by the example of how you live.
