    you can too.

    just ask yourself WHO or WHAT your God is.

    you'll KNOW by realizing what or who it is that you obey.

    If you choose Good? Your on the right path.

    If not. Well...you know.


    Remember, we all fall down.

    Only the Righteous feel guilty about it and learn not to make the same mistakes.

    Love Yourself. Understand Yourself. Have patience with Yourself. Have FAITH in yourself.

    But put yourself 2nd to God and Jesus. THEN?

    You'll be able to do the same with everyone else in this world..

    you'll be able to LOVE everyone. to Understand everyone. to have Patience with everyone.

    I don't expect many to believe me. But the FACT of the matter is, that i LOVE everyone. BUT...at the same time? I don't give a what anyone thinks about me on this earth. Not the people that judge me anyway.

    I Love this board. It was very theraputic for me for a LONG time...

    I want this board to be Like a Family. No family is perfect, but i wanted more Love and Less hate. I know I was in fact guilty of the same thing myself, so please don't think i'm pointing fingers.

    But I CAN"T go back to who i WAS. I'm BORN AGAIN.

    That old Zac is DEAD.

    I still curse from time to time...drink a beer here and there.

    And I'LL face TEMPTATION FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE...and I'LL NEVER BE PERFECT....but that doesn't mean i'll suc b to the temptations...cuz even though i KNOW i'll NEVER be perfect? That doesn't mean i can't try to be.

    I'm following Jesus now. It's a narrow path. But it's the RIGHT one.

    We all must choose our own destiny. I am choosing mine.

    I love all of you. No bull .

    Try to be nice and understanding of others. Forgive others as you would want God to forgive you.

    Now go party like it's 1999, but make it a Good Party. I know i will.

    That's my plan. See you on the other side...or sooner...

    It's time for me to WALK THE WALK. I've talked enough bull in my life.
    So all i ask from you guys? Keep living the good life, and keep your eyes open. We are our own worst enemies. Learn to kick your own ass from time to time...it sets you free.


    So with that,

    I say, Goodmorning, Goodafternoon, and Goodevening....and if i don't see you...Godbless you.

    I had no idea who jesus was or where to find him until I started to hear Creed songs on the radio. That really opened my eyes. His arms were wide open, and his sacrifice was known to me.

    Zak, where do you go to church?

    well, Baptist church is what I claim. we're like la raza, but with more white people. but I love any church that preaches that Jesus is the way.

    That is one of the major problems, and I do believe Satan has used man against himself in this regard.

    We have separated the churches. We are all on the same side. All praising God, and all trying to get closer to God through His Son Jesus. But then you got catholics, baptists, 7th day adventists...etc, etc...and that's not bad. But the bad part is that people think THEIR CHURCH is the Right one.

    WRONG. They're church might be right for THEM, but ANY church that praises Jesus Christ as the Way to Salvation is the RIGHT one and i'd proudly sit in ANY church like that. We are all the same. People I mean. All the same. Nobody is better. Nobody is worse. Some just fall harder and make more mistakes than others. But a child is born with no state of mind. People that make bad choices are made...not born. That's why i crave understanding... I want to understand everyone...and Judge NO one.

    So yeah...i claim baptist, especially since Jesus was baptised by John at coincidentally, around the age of 30, 31....

    but the Castle Hills 1st Baptist where I got married was very very rich for me. Nothing against all the Good people there, but I like to goto a church where i feel i can make a difference. And when Pasteur Harris (Don Harris' dad) retired from Castle Hills 1st Baptist? It just wasn't the same.

    So i goto a church called Centro Christiano, across the street from West Avenue Elementary. A relatively small church, but it feels like a family. The Pasteur is a good friend of mine. Bob Ellis. My and wifey know him and his wifey and their son Kevin. And he's a good man. A cowboy fan...but a good man nonetheless.

    They have empty seats people...plenty of room. Service is from 11 to 12. park in the back on the basketball court if it's too full, and i do believe they have childcare as well.

    But Bob and his wife are in Valenzuela, where she's from, right now...and I beleive this Sunday will have a Subs ute Pasteur. Bob will be back by the 14th of January. See you there, unless I'm in Cali by then.

    I agree that it doesn't matter what denomination you are - I've been to almost all of them.

    Have you ever been to CrazyOne's church?

    Harris (Don Harris' dad) retired from Castle Hills 1st Baptist? It just wasn't the same.
    Did he retire right after his accident? Or before that?

    Congratulations, Zak.

    thanks Solid D.

    Godbless you Good Brother.

    Some people set the standard folks. Some people follow another that does.

    Solid D, like myself, is a follower.

    Who are we following?

    Well, i'm sure you can figure it out.

    Remember this...a follower of God can be a King among men. We have been shown the way. We just need to all stop caring so much about the material bull and get out of our own ways.

    Whenever you have a problem? Something that bothers you and you don't know what to do?

    The answer is simple. Choose LOVE.

    It's not always easy. But it's always Right.

    btw, are you guys getting a kick out of all my screen names...

    I've passed some on...and Kori knows who they are...so it's all good.

    bigzak25 is mine though.

    i'm back to being just me.

    yeah, i know i'm saying that from my justagirl21 screenname....ironic huh.

    With the last name of Ellis, he can't be bad.

    never been to crazy one's church. i might try it...mouse was always asking me to go...but he's on this morman kick right now....

    and i have nothing against the morman's EXCEPT that they hold the book of morman like it's a bible. There is ONLY ONE Good book...In my humble opinion.

    But they are people too...and i love my morman brothers just the same...

    not to compare, but if i wanted to got an extreme?

    you have the church of satan.

    Do they worship satan? Not directly.

    They worship man. They worship themselves.

    The church of satan is all about selfishness and giving in to all of your earthly desires without any concern for anyone.

    But? I love them too. They, in my opinion, just need to be shown the light, and then they can at least be informed. Then? They'll have to make their own choice just like we all do...

    The meaning of Life folks. Is to Give Up to God. Is to Follow Jesus in all that you do.

    Life is a TEST. A TEST of FAITH. I want to pass. To each....their own.

    If there is no heaven or ? Well, then you lived a good life didn't you.

    And if there IS? Well...you just saved your own soul.

    No lose.

    Sounds Good to me.

    no, i don't know.

    The elders have come to see him.

    You know the drill..come by bike. Wear a tie.

    Can we come in and talk to you?


    --------

    I met the guys he's talking about, cuz my uncle just moved into the apartments where mouse lives, and they stopped by to talk to mouse on the same day as that...

    so i met them...cool guys.

    BUT, they TRUST Joseph Smith.

    I don't trust ANYONE BUT JESUS AND GOD.

    That's the difference.

    I don't even trust myself. My mind, my heart, my eyes, they are all deceivers to me. I can't tell you how many times i chose to do something that I KNEW wasn't good for me, but I did the stupid anyway....I can't even trust myself...

    How can i trust anyone else...but God and Jesus...I can't!

    But I can have faith in people. I have much faith in my family and friends, and humanity in general, and i have alot of faith in myself as well, ocourse.

    i can't speak for mouse, but i will anyway.

    he just wants for you to stick up for him sometimes like you do for others Kori.

    nothing more, nothing less.

    he doesn't realize why Tpark, Manny, and Sequ all get free passes.

    Agreed, Mouse and even myself bring alot of our own storm upon us, and I personally, can take care of myself, but I think you guys and mouse have more history and we are all human after all...you know.

    But his phone may or may not be working....and I know he's looking for work and ::gasp:: has stopped smoking weed, last i checked....

    maybe he just got tired of his smackoff schtick on this board....who knows...we all grow up sometime huh?

    I stick up for him all the time. If he doesn't see that, he doesn't really read. Whenever anyone is complaining about multiple screennames, etc. I always say that Mouse is the only one who I don't mind doing it - that Mouse is actually funny. When people bash him, I always say he's a good hearted guy in real life who would do anything for anyone if you ask.

    Ask anyone on this forum if I've ever gotten up at 2am to come to their apartment across town to give them $20 for milk for their daughter. Mouse knows I have his back. If he's being stubborn or having issues or whatever, that's on him. I know I've proved myself as a friend to him.


    he doesn't realize why Tpark, Manny, and Sequ all get free passes.

    Yeah, i tell him. And he KNOWS.

    You've got nothing to prove to anyone here how good a person you are K. We've all seen your hospitality and kindness first hand.

    But we all got our own personal demons to conquer, you know. I have mine, mouse has his. And sometimes? And it's unfortunate. But sometimes, we take that stuff out on others that have nothing to do with it.

    I know i've done that.

    And of course...sometimes we all feel sorry for ourselves. I'm speaking for NOONE but myself, here. With Jesus? I snap the out of that mode VERY quickly if it happens to me...which is very very rare these days. We can all learn. I'm risking the nerd status again, but I want to be a Jedi.

    A Christian jedi. A fat one...but one, nonetheless.

    god bless you to my son but, work on that swearing


    .................jesus, god, and the holy spirit

    and remember if you hear from one of us, its as good as hearing fr0m all three of us......I think?

    Thanks brother...I will. I can stop anytime i want to, but i'm holding onto it because i want to use it as a tool to reach out to others that would otherwise tune me out.

    If they hear me swear, they KNOW i'm not perfect right off the bat, and i'm basically saying, look at me, my stinks too....now lets all rap about J and the Love.

    there will be a time when i hang up the cursing...but i feel that right now is not it...but soon.

    and i will definitely try to cut out all unnecessary cursing.

    until then....F*&^ it. :p

    Plus Zak, a lot of people don't realize that I've been battling medical problems for a year. And just because I don't call or email people all the time .. or invite peeps over our house as much as before doesn't mean that I'm not being as cool. It just means that I'm dealing with stuff. Being unhealthy sucks. I am to the point that I'm even taking off from going to Spurs games for a couple weeks because I can't handle it. For example in the last few days, I've had to stay in bed for like 15 hours a day because I have such bad aches from a medication I have to take. It sucks. So I hope that Mouse (or whoever else) understand that. If I'm not around as much .. or going out as much, it just means that I'm dealing with stuff.
