Today's Scripture
In those days Israel had no king; all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes. - Judges 21:25 NLT
Thoughts for Today
During this period in Israel's history, the people were inconsistent in following God. With no central vision of God's laws and statutes, "all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes." The result? Social disorder… sin.
We could use this same phrase to describe today's society. Masses of people are doing whatever seems right in their own eyes. "If it feels good, do it" has become a common mantra.
Consider this …
An "if it feels good, do it" attitude does not result in peace. It results in chaos, selfishness, strife, and all manner of sin. If our world is to find peace, it must turn to Yahweh-Shalom.
And if we as individuals want to find inner peace, we will find it only in the Lord. By choosing his way instead of ours. By submitting to his commands instead of our feelings. By choosing to do what is right in his eyes, not ours.
Prayer
Lord, help me not to be ruled by my own desires and feelings. Help me to seek your will in every area of my life. Help me to choose what is right, not what feels good. In Jesus name …
These thoughts were drawn from …
Knowing God My Father: Applying the Names of God to My Personal Life by Jimmy Ray Lee, D.Min. This curriculum is designed to help people strengthen their relationship with their heavenly Father by applying His names to their personal life. Along with helping Christians know God better, it can serve as an evangelistic tool by giving a true picture of God to people who may have a distorted view of Him because of an absent or abusive earthly father who did not or does not provide for them. This group can also help men who want to be better fathers. Note: This curriculum was written especially for small groups, and we encourage people to use it that way. However, it can also be used effectively as a personal study for individuals or couples.

Parents360 Rx

The Parents360 Rx Action Toolkit is a new community education resource that can be used by professionals from law enforcement, prevention and treatment, as well as by any concerned adults who want to share information about medicine abuse with their friends, family, neighbors and organizations to which they belong.
{title}

How does it work?

The Parents360 Rx Action Toolkit consists of a video, a discussion guide and a small number of documents, and is available to individuals and organizations at no charge. Program hosts show the short (11-minute) video, which addresses the impact of medicine abuse on real families, to stimulate an informal discussion. The focus of this video is prescription medicine abuse, considered by many to be the biggest substance abuse threat we currently face and one that is unknown to many parents and underestimated by many others. While medicine abuse is the focus, the discussion may be guided to include other substance abuse topics as desired.
Hosts can use this toolkit at meetings of groups to which they belong, such as parent-teacher organizations, faith groups or even in the workplace. The kit may also be used in more traditional Parents360 venues where there are stringent time constraints (e.g. Rotary Club meetings). Or, hosts may wish to invite a few friends, family, neighbors or any group of concerned adults to their home or to another place in their community where they are comfortable such as a library, schools, places of worship, or local restaurants.

The Parents360 Rx Medicine Abuse Action Kit makes it very easy to share the video and have a meaningful, productive discussion about the issues raised within. All that is required is a computer connected to a projector or a DVD player that is connected to a TV.
You can learn more about the medicine abuse issue by visiting The Medicine Abuse Project and by viewing a slidecast about prescription drugs and over-the-counter cough medicine.
We also ask for your help to spread the word.  You can make a real difference in the lives of your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors by sharing information about the Parents360 Rx Action Toolkit.  We have created versions for individuals as well as organizations such as police departments, schools, prevention organizations, health care providers and businesses.
Technical assistance on using this new tool is available upon request.

The Partnership at Drugfree.org: Highlights of 2012


For The Partnership at Drugfree.org, 2012 was a year full of firsts.
From the launch of The Medicine Abuse Project to the unveiling of our new campaign “The Hope Share,” to new tools for parents, grandparents and Hispanic families, we expanded our reach and resources to a wider audience this year. All of our efforts helped advance us toward our vision of a world where all kids will be able to live their lives free of drug and alcohol abuse.
We are proud to share some of our highlights of 2012. We express our gratitude and humble thanks to all of our supporters, partners and contributors who helped make them possible. Click the image below to view our highlights slideshow.
