you drink?!

Apple Juice?! Soda?! Naw, Alcohol.

You can call this a rant because its been bothering me. But first, let me get something straight. I do NOT drink. But I know people who do.

Legal or not, I say, "Uh oh... you drink? Ooo.. Thats bad.." I don't know why I say that even to those who are legal.. (well maybe except the ones thats BEEN legal, like parents...)

So many stories have been told to me about themselves drinking. I feel like my head is exploding with so many stories and it makes me sad. ):

Anyways, whats the point in drinking? I don't understand. Someone want to tell me? No? Yeah? Your choice, you don't have to. You also have the same choice in whether you want to drink or not. You don't have to, there are other alternatives. And there are safer alternatives.

When I know someone who is very dear to me drink, I get worried. I think "why are they drinking?" or for the ones who grew up with me in school, "Don't you remember D.A.R.E.?"

Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Eph. 5:18

To those who told me stories of when they got drunk, I am very worried about you. I am praying for you. You may not read this, but I hope God leads you to His word. And to those who plan on drinking when your 21 , watch out. Avoid getting druink. And if you know you are going to get drunk, just don't go on with it. Drink juice or apple cider or water. If you are drinking because you are depressed or going through a tough time, remember this...

Cast all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you. 1 Pet. 5:7
He loves you and cares for you. Talk to Him about your problems, trust in Him that He'll make a way and He will make a way.
