Thoughts choose emotions, emotions regulate chemistry, and chemistry determines health. Addiction can form when we take emotional comfort in substance or behavior in an effort to avoid pain. It is the repetition of certain intakes, conditions, and times. God's first commandment is His invitation to choose our addiction rather than letting it choose us, for we are going to be addicted to something. Let us get addicted to His love and let it eliminate the ache of an empty life.
