Methodonia

Just watched Methodonia on HBO. Its a 2 hour documentary about people on Methadone and their struggles. Very, very sad for me to watch. It probably has more of an effect on me than on others. I could easily be one of those living a life in "Liquid handcuffs". It was sad to watch. Nothing was really said about what causes a person to be an addict or how to get off. They talked a little bit about the need for willpower and that addicts dont have any, but nothing about the Christian message of Salvation. Methodone is really a very stupid therapy. When I watch progams like this one, or the A&E program it makes me grateful, very very grateful. The one thing they dont seem to ever talk about in these television programs is the saving grace of Jesus Christ.


It would be nice sometime if they had a show where they showed the depravity of addiction, and then showed someone who had found repentance and the Salvation of the Lord.

I'd like to make a documentary like that someday.


God Bless

Luke 7:41-43 (King James Version)

41There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

42And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?

43Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
