Tares Of Addiction

 Addictive tares are things that be
Bad for you and bad for me.
Tares are weeds that bind the soul
And from our lives they take a toll.

"I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be  bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Matthew 16:19 New International Version)

Addictions come in many forms; alcohol, drug, food, sex, and many others. Tares in the Scriptures, were a weed of grainfields and considered a seed of evil. No Matter the addiction, we all get caught up in thoughts, feelings or behaviors which inhibit our personal, spiritual, and  social growth. I hope my thoughts will be of some use to others.
