I'm asking for a friend who was wondering if it is acceptable to party all Friday night long, and into the morning hours, and still do good deeds for others during the week after catching up on sleep, and living an up-style life 5 or 6 out of 7 days?
What's your opinion?
I don't know if this is something anyone has pointed this out yet, but is something I know from my own personal experience personally in my own life in my past personally, etc...
And that is, it only takes one time, and one time only, and only one moment only, of being out of control only, for the Devil to seriously mess up years or decades or more of your life, in only a matter of a couple of seconds, of being out of control, etc, if God so chooses to withdraw his protection from you in any way, in any particular moment just for a second, and your... Well, let's just say I want to use some "expletives" here that are not allowed on here on this forum, etc...
It only took one second of being like this for me, and God withdrew His protection from me for a second, and in one night and overnight, I crashed my car, got my drivers license taken away for life, almost killed somebody, and just about wound up in prison, etc, never having ever been in any kind of trouble like that ever ever before in my own life ever, etc...
And all it took was only just one night of getting or being inebriated to the point of still being awake and conscious, but not at all aware of what I was doing, or did or had done the next day in my life, etc, an "awake blackout", etc, and the Devil, by the permission of God that night or in those moments I believe, kind of was allowed to take over, and even take me over temporarily I believe, and almost totally wrecked it (the rest of my life) for good almost, etc...
I don't remember driving or making the decision to drive, nor do I remember doing the drug I did, or supposedly chose to do, that most likely caused it either, none of it at all...
I still had to do some jail-time, and still lost my license and my ability to have and drive and own a vehicle for life, but I didn't go to prison, etc, and I didn't kill anyone, etc, and I can't even remember ever doing it, or even starting to do it, or even engaging in it before or afterward, or even to this day, etc, it was an awake and aware complete conscious blackout, etc... So I wasn't awake or aware, but I also was, etc... Anyway...
So, you all want to play with fire, go ahead, but I personally don't ever anymore in my own life at all personally anymore, etc...
I learned my lesson, etc, and also learned that it only takes one moment, one mistake, and if God removes His protection from you, the Devil can quite literally "take over", and he wishes you dead, so...
Anyway,
God Bless!
