An article in the local paper– The Northland Age-12. 06. 08–caught my eye and is going around in my head. The article is called, “Moerewa–WE are the solution.”

I was especially interested in the word solution. But are we the solution? Please read on.

At the end of the article a Moerewa (The name of a place) man is mentioned who “had been to meetings where he had said the solution began with families and each had to look after their own, but now he didn’t have the faintest idea if there was a solution.”

The same man “did not expect the battle against drugs to be won, but added that if one soul was saved then a great deal of work had been done.” (I think he means a soul saved from drugs).

What a hopeless situation when we start with us, our families.

Our families must start with the Lord Jesus Christ. He is our soluition.

Not too long ago I went to a meeting listening to a man who was addicted to all kinds of drugs. He has also a beautiful singing voice and travels the world to tell people how the Lord saved him and delivered him from drugs. I have actually met him before a number of years ago.
