    Doesn't this counsel fly in the face of some scriptures that say that Jehovah knows what you need and can read hearts? Doesn't the organization teach that approaching God in prayer, He will understand even if you don't fully understand exactly what is troubling you?

    If the story is not true then he is making a lot of assumptions and ones that don't have anything to do with the story (like having everything that other women wished they had).

    If she prayed more specifically he says God would direct her to the elders and they would read scriptures to her. Huh?

    "But there's a guy down on the job" - there are some serious problems with the way he expressed this.

    Thank you for the captions. It would be nice to see some captions on the first part of the Lett Video. Thanks!

    After 2:17 I couldn't take it anymore. What a load of crap. Cedars, how can I get to un-know these guys? Someone send the Men in Black? The worst fault of that colleague is that he doesn't yield to the Governing Body's authority... Some publications indicate that you don't always have to be specific. Doesn't the bible show that God knows what's on our mind and what we need, before we do?

    In the same way the Spirit comes to the aid of our weakness. We do not even know what we ought to pray, but through our inarticulate groans the Spirit himself is pleading for us, and God who searches our inmost being knows what the Spirit means, because he pleads for God's people in God's own way; and in everything, as we know, he co-operates for good with those who love God and are called according to his purpose. - Romans 8:26-28, THE NEW ENGLISH BIBLE WITH THE APOCRYPHA

    At 1m24 and 1m29 don't you think his voice sounds like the serpent talking to Eve?

    What a buffoon.

    "She has what all women want, and in all the right places."

    So our esteemed Br. Herd is imagining the great body of this sister?

    A buffoon and a perv.

    Somehow, I also think the message here is trying to bring the members back to the days of yesteryear when the women in the workplace were young and single, only looking for a good man. But the JW women should be out pioneering and picking up their husband's dry cleaned suit for his upcoming talk at the Kingdom Hall. You know- women out there in the workplace ALWAYS LEADS TO SEX.

    I guess Jehovah can't read hearts when she prays she "doesn't feel good."
