Psalm 55:21-23 (KJV): Cast thy burden on the Lord and he shall sustain thee

From Psalms

Psalm 55:21-23

²¹The words of his mouth were smoother than butter,
      but war was in his heart:
his words were softer than oil,
      yet were they drawn swords.

²²Cast thy burden upon the LORD,
      and he shall sustain thee:
he shall never suffer
      the righteous to be moved.
²³But thou, O God, shalt bring them down
      into the pit of destruction:
bloody and deceitful men
      shall not live out half their days;
      but I will trust in thee.

Let's continue where we left off yesterday in Psalm 55.  Outlines the betrayal by a good friend - or I should say, a seemingly good friend.  Yesterday I discussed how addiction plays the role of betraying friend - and so I just want to close up this discussion.

The words of our addiction seem smoother than butter - but war is in its heart.  Cast thy burden on the Lord, instead of a disloyal friend, and the Lord shall sustain the addict.  God will help you fight your addiction.  All you need to do is ask...in prayer.  Ask and you will be saved.  I will trust in the Lord.

Thanks for letting me share.
