From drugs, to alcohol, to apathy, to lying, to simple thoughts of hate, all fall under the hand of evil. Resistance is hard to keep up, and sometimes we need someone else on which to lean. Whether friend or family “we all need somebody to lean on”. Through these relationships we find a peace as the weight of moral failure is shared amongst the pair or group. Even as we continue in our action, someone can continue to hold us up in the peaceful rest of their loving arms. Sometimes we just need to say, “Hold Me Jesus”
