Today Mike Starr of Alice in Chains died from a drug overdose he was 44 years old. I am 41 yet while we travelled in the same circles we had 2 dermatically different outcomes. His was a battle with addiction to drugs which ultimatley cost him his life. Mine was to find peace in a savior who for no reason at all let me know he loves me more than anything in this world. I wish after all the help Dr. Drew gave him someone would of shared with him how special he is in Fathers eyes and how if he could just spare a moment Father would show him just how great his love is for him. Dr. Drew did prove one thing that no matter how hard we try or care. The end result layes soaley in the hand of our own decision.
My heart breaks as I write this because it is the same scene that is repeated over and over again. All the anger, all the sadness, all the hate, all the hurt, all the pride, very simply just missing a place where God is allowed to enter.
As paul so put it 1 Timothy 1:15-16, This was my truth, that Father had a place for me in his Kingdom. All the messages back and forth between Christians and Non-Christians really makes me sad neither grasp the fact Jesus did not come to heal the healthy nor did he come to judge John 3:17.
He came to fill the gap that was broken by Adam and Eve to be the bridge that leads us home to Father. His tears he cried where all for you and just like Mike Jesus heart hurts for one of his beloved is gone.
I am in no way saying he is in Heaven or Hell. I am saying with Gods great love this tragedy could of been avoided it was for me. I speak only through personal experience. A tear is shed tonight and I pray so hard for Mikes Family and friends sadly he will be missed. I pray in those last moments Him and Jesus got to know each other and Mike found the peace that he avoided for so long. We will miss you Mike Good night
