Unfortunately, there are other thrills that aren t nearly as safe. We have a real drug problem in our community among the young people that are here. Right here in Anson, Texas we have a number of students who are wasting their minds and their money on illegal substances. Many consider drug use a cheap thrill, but the truth is that the thrill is not cheap. The consequences are destructive.
Drug use is foolishness of the worst kind.
It involves surrendering one s mind to the affects of a mind-altering substance. It s a tragedy and a shame when we expose them to something as corrupting as illegal drugs. Some people resort to drug use in order to escape bad situations, some do it to fit in, and others just do it because they want to see what it s like. Regardless of the reasoning, drug use is a dead-end street with disastrous consequences. Only God can satisfy our deepest desires, and when He does, the benefits are astounding.
