I did my mock trial in American Legal Systems (i was the judge) and i was soooo tired. I have no money for lunch today either...so today is going to be a looooooooooong day. I dont even have my school ID, i let my buddy borrow it so he wouldnt get in trouble this hour.

Other than that im good.

Its supposed to start snowing soon, im excited. Its freezing rain/sleet outside so the snow is soon to follow (once the ground cools down enough).

I don't know that I would use the word revival. I think a more apt term and one that is sorely misused is re-commitment. Often times people hear revival and think televangelists toppling people over or blowing or things of that sort.

A true re-commitment is exemplified in marriages that have gone through hard times and the couple re-commits to their vows. They don't re-marry to have to repeat the vows and mean them, they simply uphold the promise/vow they made to their spouse on the altar on that 1 day.

By definition Love is obedience to God (coming from the heart and not forced upon), so to re-commit to God is simply making the voluntary decision to be obedient in the area(s) that we weren't being faithful or the area(s) we were not loving.

I have to disagree with you slightly on this one. A major problem in the church is that the idea of what love is, and how to love, is being mistaught in many churches.

also, another definition of revival is...
5. an awakening, in a church or community, of interest in and care for matters relating to personal religion.

So, it is another term, albeit overused.

I gotta get to work...nose to the grindstone and all....

wait, so you let a friend borrow your ID so he wouldn't get in trouble, isn't that aiding in (accomplice) delinquency?

I understand where you're coming from. However, understanding what true love is, is basically going back to your first love right? So wouldn't that be a re-commitment? Maybe we're saying the same thing but using different terminology.....all good though.

You could call it that. He's not doing anything with my ID, he just needs the lanyard to make it look like he has an ID on.

yah, i thought you had refered to a school ID, but won't you get in trouble for not having one?

[A4C]

Well, CK I got a much welcomed PM from mastermiind checking up on how I was doing.

As far as fear and anxiety I can honestly say things have been great. I started on some meds that help with some of the more uncontrolable aspects of my anxiety. Basically, they allow my brain to slow down. Things have been good.

As for the rest of my life, well some of you know may know, but I do alot of work for Kila Products so, thats where alot of my time has been spent. I worked the Kila booth at world cup and then played D4 5-Man fri and sat. World cup was rather dissapointing, the reffing was terrible, I understand that people are human and make mistakes, but when you have 132 teams paying 1000 in entry, the event should have enough staff our second round of prelims we only had 4 refs on our feild. We had two games were bad calls cost us the game. One games we have on film, they pulled 4 guys and none of them were shot and the refs were coaching a particular team. The other game was just being understaffed and under trained.

So the paintball deal aside from cup went pretty well, we ended up 6th place overall for the season and we are bumping to D3 xball next year.

Spiritually things for me have gotten a whole lot better. my attendance to church isn't the greatest, but my prayer life and my studies have been great. I am human and I have my struggles that I am overcoming. My temper and language tends to not always be the best, but it is an ongoing process of letting God change my attitude and my mindset.

I appreciate all the people here and I visit here quite frequently I just rarely post. Thanks again to you all and God Bless.

2 questions, ok make it 3:

1) didn't you think that was wrong to do (aiding in something bad), cause you know the Bible is clear on that? I can give verses....

2) I'm a little confused by the fact that we don't know what ID it is you let him borrow. Was it your school ID, your state ID or some other kind?

3) what trouble were you trying to keep him out of?

[The-AK]

Oh yippee, PC apps, typing for an hour and a half is so much fun!

he said school ID. maybe they are required to have one visible when out in the halls or something, and maybe he is in a classroom and his buddy isn't

Thanks for posting brother. You know now that I think about it, you've been a member for a long time and I still don't know your name. Would like to introduce yourself?

Also, I am so glad to hear how God is working in your life and how you are working on changing the areas that you know don't please God. That is a great testimony for the rest of us!

Let me also say, that you are fortunate to play and work in pb related mattes! A bad ref can be a set back (and annoying), but you get to play and you get to rep. your faith! That's always a + outlook!

I will keep praying for your health and for your spiritual life brother.......looking forward to knowing who you are and what you look like

1) I dont think it was the wrong thing to do, i wasnt helping him do something bad.
2) Its my school ID. I find it funny that he has to spend a few hours of the day as a sophomore as opposed to a junior
3)He would have gotten a $15 fine and possibly a referal, but referals are rare. We do this all the time at my school. Thats why most people have multiple ID's.

EDIT: Gold is right. You need one visible in the halls. He has the actual ID part under his shirt but the lanyard is visible, which is sufficient.

our school used to do that, where you had to wear your ID, but then people were loosing theres all the time, and parents thought it was dumb. So they stop at the beginning of this year

[Mastermind26]

I guess I'm just not getting what's going on, but w/e. If you're not doing anything wrong then carry on....albeit no lunch

Oh and for showing me that game.....as if PBN wasn't distracting enough....
