A good friend of mine invited me to a party after her meeting on Sunday. I told her I was not going any longer and she doesn't care. She also let us know that no other Witnesses would be there. Welllllll her mom mentioned it to a few people at the hall unbeknownst to her and BAM the uncomfortable feelings began.
She introduced me to all of her workmates and we were relaxing and having a good time then BOOM!! A brother who pretty much was a slacker and a whiner and constant screw up comes in. He looked mortified when he saw me. Keep in mind that no announcement has been made so he is going off of sheer rumor at this point. Anyway he comes in and I extend my hand to him and he walks away. Please keep in mind that when he was going through legal trouble I was there for him. He had SERIOUS marital issues and I can say without a doubt that had I not been there his marriage would have been done and over with.
At one point on a shepherding call he told me he wanted to just ennd it all. I went to the SCRIPTURES and fortified him. I let him hand out with me. He was assigned to my bookstudy and I made sure I spent time with him. I left the hall about 1 year ago - and he has since gotten to the point were he may be a servant very soon.
After all of this he refused to speak and told the sister - I am not going to be here in this setting with HIM.
It is moments like this that I realize that anyone who takes this relgion seriously is touched in the head.
