Close your eyes and ask yourself? Do I live an unbalanced life? Am I an Addict?
An Unbalanced life is simply living an extreme life of imbalance between Worship, love, Work and play leading to anxiety and or depression.
The Early church fathers said ((All which exceeds limits is from the demons)) Indeed, the devil loves extremes. Leading unbalanced life and putting God last leads in many cases to addiction.
Leading a life with even these aspects but without God as the top priority also leads to imbalance. We live In-Christ not just the rituals in worship, we love In-Christ in relationships, we carry Christ in our hearts and actions at work and in recreational activities. “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness and all these things will be added to you”.
Leaving an unbalanced life is an early sign that necessitates immediate action and spiritual awakening. Stop denial and act. Seek your church and commit to your prayers. Don’t deny it from yourself and Christ but raise it in your prayers.
