  I have a copy of the article you want from the February 2003 Kingdom ministry, and can scan and email it if required. Do you want the whole thing, or just the particular article. Would a text document be acceptable, or do you need a photo scan?

  My parents are still wittnesses, and so I can get hold of most items from their library, including new items as released, if anybody needs a copy of anything.

  Hello folks,

  Here is how to post pictures so that they appear on the board here:

  1) open an account in one of those picture storage websites such as www.strike9.com (it's FREE)

  2) place your pictures there

  3) place a message here with a link to where your picture is located; one link to each picture.

  Example:

  If your type http://www.strike9.com/file.aspx?path=/observador/fullsize/page104.gif in your message, people will see this here:

  http://www.strike9.com/file.aspx?path=/observador/fullsize/page104.gif

  That's it.

  Observador.

  ...continuing from my last message.
  If you really want the picture to appear in this page, you should click the HTML button on the bottom of the page and use the <img> HTML tag, like this:
  <img src="your link goes here"></img>. The result will be something like this:

  This last method is not advisable though, due to the increase in page's load time since you're forcing the picture to be embedded in your message.

  Help at the Right Time

  1 When the apostle Peter saw a need to strengthen fellow believers, concern

  moved him to give them loving reminders and encouragement. (2 Pet. 1:12, 13; 3:1) He urged 'those who had obtained a faith' to keep grow­ing in spiritual qualities so as not to become "either inac­tive or unfruitful regarding the accurate knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ." (2 Pet. 1:1, 5-8) Peter's purpose was to help them make the calling and choosing they had received from Jehovah sure, so that they might "be found finally by him spotless and unblemished and in peace." (2 Pet. 1:10, 11; 3:14) For many, his encouragement proved to be help at the right time.

  2 Today, Christian overseers have similar concern for God's people. In these "critical times hard to deal with," many ser­vants of Jehovah must con­tend with trying circumstances. (2 Tim. 3:1) Because of ongo­ing financial, family, or personal problems, some may feel as did David: "Calamities encircled me until there was no numbering of them. More errors of mine overtook me than I was able to see; they became more numer­ous than the hairs of my head, and my own heart left me." ~s. 40:12) These pressures can be­come so great that such ones may neglect vital spiritual mat­ters and stop having an active share in the Christian ministry. Yet, despite their difficulties, 'they have not forgotten Jehovah's own commandments.' a)s. 119:176) Now is the right time for elders to provide such ones with needed help.-Isa. 32:1, 2.

  3 To meet this need, the elders have been encouraged to make a special effort to assist those who are not currently having a share in the preaching work. A concerted effort to accom­plish this is now in progress and will extend through the month of March. Book study overseers are being asked to visit inac­tive ones to offer spiritual as­sistance with a view to helping them renew their activity with the congregation. Where there is a need, a personal Bible study may be arranged. Others may be asked to assist. if you are invit­ed to do so, your efforts could be very beneficial, especially if you give encouragement in a kind, understanding way.

  4 There is reason for all to rejoice when someone resumes his activity with the congre­gation. (Luke 15:6) Our efforts to encourage inactive ones may truly result in "a word spo­ken at the right time for it."

  -Prov. 25:11.

  I hope this is useful for someone, their trying to make it difficult to fade.
