As much as it would be convenient to excuse addiction as disease we cannot do so. Addiction is a sin gone out of control. As the serpent seduced eve the serpent of addiction deceived you and I. The serpent says: "This little potion will make feel like God and you will be in control " little did you know that this potion would spin your life out of control. It would attract destructive consequences. It would hurt many people . We need to repent from the sin of addiction. When our repentance is of genuine essence we will call on people who can help us get out of this bondage. We will do whatever it takes to free ourselves from the trap.

As long as we keep looking for our true self in a world of conditional love, we remained hooked in a world of trying, failing and trying again. It is a world that fosters addictions because what it offers cannot satisfy the cravings of the heart.Our addictions make us cling to what the world proclaims as the keys to self fulfilment. These addictions create expectations that cannot but fail to satisfy our deepest needs.
