A Youth Prayer On Temptations Of Drugs

Christianity. Orthodoxy. Catholicism. Sense of life. Prayers.

You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery;' but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. 'It was also said, 'Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,' but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery. 'Again you have heard that it was said to them of old time, 'You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,' but I tell you, don't swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can't make one hair white or black. But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes' and your 'No' be 'No.' Whatever is more than these is of the evil one. 'You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'* But I tell you, don't resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also. Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and don't turn away him who desires to borrow from you. 'You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor,* and hate your enemy.*' But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven.

	A Youth Prayer On Temptations Of Drugs

O Lord Jesus Christ, Our sweet Saviour, Who has commanded us,saying: "Love ye one another, even as I have loved you," kindle in my whole being Thy Love for me and my neighbor, that in all things I may do Thy will.

O Holy Lord, keep me and my brother(s) and sister(s), and my friends ever in Thy Holy love and to avoid the temptations of this world. Hear my prayer to Thee now, as I see others around me fall to the ground in pain from drugs and die before Thee.

Grant to us wisdom, guidance, health,and Thy Divine grace, so that we may walk away from the constant daily temptations of drugs.

We Thy Youth, humbly ask Thee to hear our pleas, our tears, our fears,and our prayers unto Thee, O Lord Our God, be ever-merciful unto us, Thy Children who love Thee daily. We, Thy beloved Youth, give thanks unto Thee and ask Thee to show us mercy.

Amen.
