I’m with you. I’m praying for this guy, not because he’s a former NBA star but hearing about his struggles and all men and women who struggle trying to find the answer but the wrong answers like in drugs and sex and money. They all need Jesus and many around here who are Christians fail to see what Paul said:
....Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. 4But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us..even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved)
I agree.
This whole incident reminds me of the very, very dark movie Leaving Las Vegas.
