| Eve shift in the house |

| |
Tonights my night to work an evening shift here at the addictions house I work at. I realize that our residents are here with one objection. Just as A.A.'s focus is Getting Sober, and N.A.'s main focus is getting clean. But life clean and sober without Christ can be very bleak I have found. Our current residents are just trying to figure out how to not use drugs. During there down time they usually like partaking of pretty vile entertainment. (I didn't use to think it was that vile.)
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 NKJV
Of course as I've been struggling financially, I've taken for granted a couple of things and one of them is that some things bother me that didn't used to bother me. TGBTG. As I was driving the guys to there AA meeting for the night they insisted on listening to RAP. While I've never much cared for Rap. I really noticed it is showing a direction our country is taking. Trust me there were way more references to premarital sex than to our lord and savior. I couldn't help but think we have to make every effort to draw a line some where. Maybe I'm just a weaker christian. Sometimes I feel like the world has me on my heals.
Earlier I was in the living room and there was something "Juicy" TV, the guys asked me "what I would do with that". The only thing I could think of to say was "She ain't my wife I don't have any business doing anything with her". I just wish I could be a little bolder for Christ. Especially as our time gets closer.
Sometimes I'm torn between trying to explain the Love of Christ and the Law. Well I suppose I have more lessons to learn.
