Not Narcotics

Posted: September 14, 2011 in The Life, What I'm Learning

I had a wonderful meeting today… Yes, it was a meeting and it was wonderful. Paradox? Nope, just good people :) In any case, this blog isn’t about the meeting, that would be strange given the title. This is about something that came to my mind in the most random sense. Why random? I don’t know, because I can’t even remember how it came about! Alright, enough blabber, on to the point…

We’ve probably all heard the phrase “drunk on Jesus” or “high on the Most High.” They’re used often, I’ve even used multiple variations myself in the past. However, that’s all changing. It’s not about using drug references to “poke fun” at the Creator of the universe, it comes down to the fact that there is something wrong with the root of these sayings. Maybe this is just something that God is working in my mind, and I don’t want to over spiritualize something so seemingly insignificant, but just buckle up, cause here we go…

Drugs, the kind you get “high” with, are illegal. Duh, I’m not trying to insult anyone’s intelligence, but I want to point out one thing here… God is legal… in most countries, illegal in others. So, God and drugs have something in common? Sure, but wait, I’m just warming up. I heard a song by the band Skillet called “Better Than Drugs” and the lyrics go a little something like this:

You’re better than drugs, addicted for life.

So, God is addicting? Yes, yet another thing that the Creator of galaxies has in common with a vile substance… Ooh, feel that religious spirit biting at your ear lobes yet? Don’t worry, I’m going somewhere with this.

Here’s where I got all crazy in my meeting and to stop the PREACH from spilling out all over the table… God is NOT a “high”, God is NOT a “possession”, and certainly God is NOT “one time” or “limited”.

God IS life. God TAKES you high, He doesn’t “get” you high. God is here, there, everywhere. He isĀ unstoppable, undeniable and ever victorious. God does not fail, disappoint, or change. God is deep, He is wide, and He is eternal! Drugs? High? I will say this one time and if I could shout it I would….

Drugs don’t have ANYTHING on MY GOD!!!

What God does is on another playing field, it’s a whole other sport! To compare Him with something that we can understand and explain is MADNESS! I can type and talk and rant and rave all night on this single topic because it’s burning in my spirit like a wild-fire, but I will leave you with this….

God is the real deal, the devil tries, and fails to copy the Creator EVERY TIME.

You want “high”? Then you’ll have to go somewhere else where they serve the cheap stuff.

Be blessed :) and comment, I like comments!
