Fortunately, there is a solution: Christ. Jesus takes down the giant of our addictions. And we’ve got to derail this harmful trajectory of turning toward harm whenever we feel pain. Chaos still happens in the world, and we will still fight the feelings of vulnerability. That fight won’t stop. We will still want to cover up and cope. But the solution, instead of running to an addiction, is running to Jesus. We can be confident and secure when we’re immersed in intimacy with God.
