Just HAD TO SHARE

    In a reply to me concerning my mothers prompting for us to join her at the assembly next sunday and then go to dinner with them, my husband confessed dinner and a good brainwashing were his idea of a good time followed by the next little paragraph that was so inspired, and sarchastic, I had to share.

    By 'brainwashing', of course, I mean heart warming stories of

    inspiration, an amazing Watchtower summary (how can they so completely

    cover such an intense Biblical lesson in only half the time it normally

    takes? Got me! No wait, power of Jehovah!) and an informative symposium

    full of practical advice I can easily apply to my day-to-day existence.

    A veritable feast of Spiritual food, you might say. Up to and including

    Appetizers and Desserts. In fact, when you think about it, isn't an

    inspiring tale of an older one in the congregation's lifelong devotion

    to the Big J just like a well constructed Baked Alaska? But Better!!!

    Also, much faith-strengthening fellowship with my Brothers and Sisters,

    none of which are fat and/or stupid. Or lazy. Certainly none of which

    live off the welfare and the kindness of others, mostly they're just

    fully utilizing Caesar's provisions in order to subsidize a full time

    career in the ministry. I am so f*****n' inspired at the mere thought.

    (Of course, by "f****n' inspired", what I meant was "happified".)

    LOL @ your mate's wit. I don't think you'll find this "expression of appreciation" gracing the back of the Watchtower magazine. Too dam funny.

    Are you not just so encouraged by their upbuilding association. It was so commendable for you to take in the spiritual feast that they so thoroughly enjoyed.

    Side Note: Try relating YOUR "encouraging experiences" and see just how readily they will want to listen.
