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.
