Have you ever been forced into a tricky situation where you have no options but to do the evil plots presented to you? It's either do it or face the consequences and the consequences are dire. What would you do? Would you give in under the pressure, would you try and negotiate a way out? Would you run or fight back?
Those are not easy answers to some tough questions especially if you are trapped in a place where you will lose everything. We can all say that we would stand up for ourself if it has never happened to us, but would we really?
These are the trials in life that can lead to compulsive and addictive behaviours. These are the sticky situations that can just be enough to allow us to break down and fall into a bad habit. Keeping your faith is the only thing you can do when nothing else seems like its going to work out.
James 1:12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
This is the other alternative to falling into a substance abuse problem.
