When an individual is addicted, the last thing they experience is love and the reason for this is not far-fetched.

As humans, our first reaction to an addicted person is rejection and this is probably because we don’t want to be influenced. The addict is able to sense this rejection from miles apart and this makes them keep their distance.

This is one of the reasons why addicts and their loved ones have issues because they cannot see eye-to-eye with each other. The addict feels he or she is not loved, and they react to this. On the other hand, the loved ones of the addict still care about them, but they don’t know how to express it.

God is the only one who loves an addict without any conditions. If everyone in the world turns their back against addicts, God cannot. As it is popularly said, God hates the sin but loves the sinner. In the same vein, God hates the addiction but he loves the addict.

For addicted believers, it is difficult for them to experience and acknowledge God’s love because their addiction has occupied their heart. When they pray or seek God’s face, they don’t receive ample conviction that God has heard them because of their addiction.

One fact addicted believers need to know is, God’s love is all they need to get back on track. God’s love helps them see their addiction from a different perspective. The addicts would understand that they can survive without their addiction if they allow God take control.

Self-resolution is not enough to fight against addiction as a higher power is needed, which is God. God’s Love fortifies the individual to not indulge in their addiction again. In addition, the individual would be able to identify areas of their lives that they need to change.

To wrap it up, we need God’s love in various aspects of our lives, as it is the license we have to be victorious.

A rehab is a health facility where individuals get a full revamp and restoration of their health. It is a place where addicts and people suffering from mental health problems go to. With a rehab, it is certain that you will achieve a clean bill of health as everything concerning you will be restored to normalcy.

When it comes to a Christian rehab, the benefits are the same but there are added advantages it has that a regular rehab does not give.  

• A Christian rehab draws you closer to God

One of the features a Christian rehab encourages is, it gives you a clearer perspective about God and how he wants to be involved in every aspect of your life. Usually, addicts feel that their addiction has made God turn his back against them, so if they seek his face, he won’t respond.

This is a wrong notion; even though God hates sin, he does not hate the sinner, he is always ready to welcome anyone home provided they are willing to change.

When you are in a Christian rehab, you are sure to get back on track with God, fellowship with him and know him more.

• You have Christian counselors by your side

A Christian rehab automatically comes with Christian counselors who have a pivotal role to play. There are times when you might feel burned out and tired of your situation. With Christian counselors, you will receive good pieces of advice that would keep you motivated all through your stay at the rehab.

• Good aftercare follow-up system

When you leave the rehab, you will still receive some form of care and follow up from the Christian community. If it is an addiction problem, it could be more intense because of the possibility of a relapse.

On the other hand, if it is a mental health problem, you will receive check-ups from the rehab.

For any believer who is going through a hard time, be it addiction, mental health problem or the likes, a Christian rehab is the place to be.
