WHEN RESPECTED PROFESSIONALS DRIVE HOME AFTER ‘HAPPY HOUR’…

Sometimes it seems that texting while driving has stolen the spotlight from drunk driving.

However, it’s still the same problem it was back in 1976 when my grandfather was killed by a drunk driver on his way TO work.

But, many drunk or buzzed drivers aren’t just the stereotypical, stumbling alcoholics.

How many well-respected, hard working professionals, both ‘blue and white collar’ share ‘a couple of drinks’ after work before going home FROM work?

Not only is it a part of day-to-day life in some work places, but in many work cultures it’s an expectation to network and ‘climb the ladder’.

It’s only by the grace of God that more of these happy hours don’t end in tragedy.

I’m not saying don’t go to happy hour, but be responsible. Many people leave one drink, and one blink from suddenly changing (or ending) their life…or someone else’s.

Ephesians 5:17-19 (NKJV)

17 Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.18 And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,

BE BLESSTIFIED.

  1. I’m sorry about your grandfather 😢
    I have felt the conviction of God’s Holy Spirit fall on me so heavy about drinking that I haven’t had a alcoholic drink in years-when I even think about it I quickly get that reminder that my drinking was not glorifying God. That being said I don’t pounce on others about it-God deals with everyone differently…
    Amen to the post you were lead to write!
    Have a blessed day! 🙌🙏🏻❤️
