Hello!
     My name is Zane. My name at birth, Johnnie Zane Massaro. I was born on 2/23/56. I was raised a Catholic in an Italian family.
     I lived the 60's, became an adult in the seventies. I survived drugs, alcohol, and living a biker lifestyle for almost 30 years. I have known of God since my childhood, but never known him.
     The highlights and lows are to many too many to enumerate. Suffice it to say, I experienced too much and learned too little. Although, not too late. By the time I reached 45 I was deep in drug addiction. I hated myself, and screamed for death everyday. I cursed God not for my circumstances, but for not taking me. He knew my pain, and loved me. I got busted and went to prison.
     Prison was the beginning of a new life. It was the beginning of my path to Christ. I didn't come to Jesus right away. I didn't praise God for his love. But he set my feet upon the path.
     I got out of prison, made mistakes, and joined Narcotics Anonymous. There I learned I had to change everything in my life, follow suggestions, and surrender! To the program and to God. A loving, strong, forgiving, Higher Power! it was in this program God put people in my path that led me to accepting Jesus as my savior.
     That was over 2 years ago. Since I gave my will over to the Almighty my life has become so peaceful. I see in new ways. My demeanor less abrasive. God has taken so much those negative aspects in my life. And Jesus gives me the strength to follow his will. With this new sight, and ability to hear his word, my faith grows daily.
     I may never know Gods' plan for me, but I don't seem to worry. It is this faith that has been instilled in me. I praise God for everything in my life today, good and bad knowing it is for His plan for us. And that plan is to bring us to that which is promised.
