Order up.
I really thought that this was behind me.
I haven’t smoked in nearly a year.
But every day at lunch this happens,
and the cravings get so intense.
But maybe this is just a symptom
of other areas in my life
where I haven’t been
as focused as I should be.
I keep thinking about the scripture
at 1 Corinthians 9:25:
“Now everyone competing in a contest
exercises self-control in all things.”
If I’m going to continue
to exercise control with this,
I need to be exercising it
in other areas too,
which means getting back
to a good spiritual routine.
