This is For friends and family.
There are, first of all, my BYX Brothers, these guys are the most rockeness guys around and if there isn't a BYX fraternity on your college campus, well fix it!! It will definately be worth it, these brothers keeep in line, and reminding me how much God is doing for me and for others!!

Of course, there are the random people of Amy, Elizabeth (all of them), Shirly, Andrew, Josh, and just alot so remind me if I forget you!!

I got my older brother Chris and his wife, my younger brother Anthony, his girl and child, then my dad, whom I live with and step mom. My mom Barbara who is in New Jersey right now with her husband. Not much else right now, just gotta keep up with it.

Then there is my family, though scattered, I still love them with all of my heart. My father, Paul, is a hero in my mind, he served in the U.S Air Force for 6 years in vietnam and I hold him in a very high regard, right below God. He has given me so much I wish I could give him more than I do right now. I feel so selfish for living at home but I will do everything I can to help him out somehow, some way. My mother and older brother Chris live in other states right now and I love them entirely, though like me, have made mistakes and still try to take care of themselves and me. My aunt Linda and uncle Russ are moving from New Jersey to Llano Texas so hopefully I will get to see them for the first time!! My grandfather David is moving close to Llano from outside of Austin so hopefully I will get to see him too. My younger half brother Anthony lives somewhere between Beaumont and Houston and I don't talk to him really but I still love him.

There's no one else I can think of right now, remind me if I forgot you!!


John 15

The Vine and the Branches 1"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. 5"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. 8This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. 11I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14You are my friends if you do what I command. 15I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. 17This is my command: Love each other.
