Proactive prayers!
by ChrisVance in.
i said this on another thread, but since prayer is "so powerful" why don't sayers of prayers pray that such disasters don't happen in the future.
it would save a lot of misery and show "god" that you're pro-active.. answer: nothing fails like prayer.. .

recurring dream
by ChrisVance ini decided to share this recurring dream in hopes i won't have it any more.
in this dream i still live with my mother and i've told her and everyone else very plainly that i don't believe jw's have the truth and that i don't want anything to do with it.
however, going to the meetings and going from door to door are such habits that i continue to do them anyway.

Miracles
by ChrisVance ini remember in about 1980 there was a big flak in the olympia wa area about whether "faithful witnesses" with health problems would survive armegeddon.
many understood, and the elders agreed, that if someone needed insulin, for example, during the great trib and couldn t get it there would be no miraculous intervention.
this person would die from lack of medical attention and be resurrected later.
