March 3 v 3 v 4 TWELVE STEPPING WITH POWER IN THE PROVERB

Never let loyalty and kindness leave you!
Tie them around your neck as a reminder.
Write them deep within your heart.
Then you will find favor with both God and people,
and you will earn a good reputation.

STEP 6 : I will become entirely ready to have God remove all of my sins.. 

Loyalty and kindness two character traits I did not Have when I was at the height of my game. That's what I called it , my addiction was a game. My loyalty was to the drug ,I was the slave and it was my master . Kindness their is no such thing when your in the game .Hard core all the way ,or you will be the one getting rolled . Even talking like this at times scares the hell out of me and I have to remind myself what once was is no more , Thank God ! Now that I am outta the game and truly living life the way it supposed to be lived ,I have discovered one simple fact . When we live for others we find true happiness and peace. No I cant explain it but its true . Stop living in your own world and start living for others . Selfishness will suck the life right out of you. Start living out the proverb and step six and you will earn a good reputation !

Jesus said I am the truth the life the way no one comes unto the father but through me.

February 28 v23 TWELVE STEPPING WITH POWER IN THE PROVERB




In the end, people appreciate honest criticism
far more than flattery.



STEP 9 - We made direct amends to such people except when to do so would injure them or others.



Think back to the time you went to the mall with your best friend. You know , that friend who knows everything about you .You and your best friend are having a great day shopping when all of sudden your friend has got to go to the bathroom . Ten minutes later your friend comes strolling out of the bathroom and attached to the bottom of there shoe is a six foot trail of dirty toilet paper . WHAT DO YOU DO ? I don't have the heart to tell them because I don't want to embarrass them . So I say nothing and that is just as bad as lieing to them. As we travel through the mall I can see everyone staring at my friend and I still say nothing , then out of nowhere a total stranger yells to my friend YO , YOU GOT TOILET PAPER STUCK ON YOUR SHOE ! Immediately your friend turns to you and gives you that look and you know . Then the questions come why didn't you tell me . Then the shock wears off then comes the disappointment .The sad part about this story is it happens everyday though the circumstances can be different. When I was caught up in addiction all I could do was lie about everything and to everyone. When we finally get sober we have to train ourselves to tell the truth at all times in every situation we need to speak up to our friends before someone else tells them . Not saying something can sometimes injure your friends and family more .

DEA Cracks Down on Potent Marijuana Product Called “Wax” in California
 
By Join Together Staff | February 27, 2014 | 2 Comments | Filed in Community Related & Drugs

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is cracking down in California on a potent marijuana product called “wax,” according to ABC News. Wax is legal—and popular—in Colorado.

Wax is a distillation of marijuana said to be so potent that a single hit will keep a person high for more than a day, the article notes. A person making wax uses the flammable substance butane to strip out the THC, the chemical in marijuana that causes a high.

“There is no weed out there that possesses the punching power that the wax does,” an anonymous undercover DEA informant told ABC News’ “Nightline.” “And it’s like smoking 20 joints of the best grade of weed that you have into one hit of the wax.”

Gary Hill of the DEA’s San Diego office said, “We have seen people have an onset of psychosis and even brain damage from that exposure to that high concentration of THC. Our concern is that this is going to spread before we get it under control.”

In Colorado, wax is legal for anyone over the age of 21. It is sold in recreational marijuana dispensaries. A three-day contest called the X-Cup, held in Denver, is designed to determine who can make the most potent batch of wax.
