 Ask God for 20/20 spiritual vision, as you pray this Lazaroo: 

“…wine betrays him…”
(Habakkuk 2:5)

Wine is pretty good at that, Jesus.

It can give me a feeling of false happiness and security.

When I’m down, depressed, discouraged, despondent, it’s pretty tempting.

Instant feel-good.

But it doesn’t solve my problem

doesn’t address the causes of my unhappiness.

It just disguises them

paints a happy face on a hangman’s shroud

fools me into thinking things are better than they are

until the wine wears off
and I go in search

of more wine.
