Hey guys there's a some talk going on about drinking...
here's what i saw once written in calligraphy and framed in one of my
friends room...
Those who drink, Go to sleep,
Those who sleep do not sin,
those who do not sin Go to Heaven... So lets all drink (and go to heaven) :)
about drinking, here's what i feel, the journey of a thousand miles begins
with the first step..We've all seen people who started out very confident in
this area just for company sake.. and end up in a catastrophic downward
spiral!.
i personally as a Jesus youth will not dabble with alcohol.
by the way i drink a lot, im a waterholic!!! lol:) (about 10ltrs a day!!)
Love in Jesus,
Josun
