Yes, there is a new CO since I stopped attending meetings, and this morning my husband came home from service and said that the new CO wanted to drop by and visit me this afternoon... "Just to say hi"... yeah, right. But my husband was in such a good mood that I didn't want to ruin it, so I figured what the heck, let them come....
After some small talk, Brother New CO gets to the point... quotes a scripture from Galations about "You were running so well", and asks what it was that stumbled me. I reply that I don't have a problem with anyone at the KH, and in fact I have lots of friends there. He looked relieved... I blamed health problems for my not being at meetings, and said that I don't feel that Jehovah is angry with me, because he knows us better than we know ourselves. And I don't feel that Jehovah's neglecting me or my spirituality, either.
What can they say to that?? Bro. New CO and Bro. Accompanying Elder just nodded. I was soo unafraid of them... such a change from a year and a half ago!!! Bro. New CO invited me to the meeting tonight... I said that it was a bad day, I have a headache. He asked about a phone hookup, but it's out of order at our KH. He asked if he could say a prayer, and I said sure... so he did. Then they left.
When my husband came home he asked if they'd stopped by.. I said yes, that Bro. New CO was nice, that it was nice to see Bro. Accompanying Elder... I said they had asked if someone had stumbled me, and I said no, that I loved everyone in the hall.... He seemed satisfied.
I can't believe how easy that was! Just wanted to share!
