just an observation
by pontoon ini see a lot of posts about lack of zeal, slacking in fs, just going through the motions...........i have really not seen that in my old congregation up to the time i stopped attending two yrs ago, but i believe that could be the exception.
however, a bethel career sister and a young local brother, a ms and doing all the right things in the congregation (who i was friends with) stopped at my house, caught me up with chit chat and this young bro told me about his changing jobs because he wanted a retirement.
about 38 years ago when i was his age i never believed i would need a retirement in this "old system.

Tons and tons of literature

I always wondered why
by pontoon inwhen someone asked me what religion i was i would say "i'm a jehovah's witness.
" so many others including my ex wife would say "i'm one of jehovah's witnesses.
" i could never figure that out.

where's the challenge?
by pontoon inwe were taught that the challenge to jeh in the garden...... had to be answered because all the angels were watching and it would take time to work it all out.

Just thinking back--paradise
by pontoon ini can remember i would always hear that borg was doing this or that in preparation for the paradise.
use to hear it a lot when kh's began to be built 'quickly.
' friends would tie that into how the borg could project manage all of the housing that would have to be built after big a. so, can you just imagine a paradise run and controlled by the same heavyweights that run the borg.

What JW's pray for
by pontoon inpublic prayers.
probably a thousand times a day brothers are praying that jeh "please be with our brohood around the earth.........." after every major diasaster the prayers go "please jeh allow your spirit to keep our bros spiritually strong as they endure their trials.........." this is one area of the truth when i was in that i was never able to be at peace with in my mind.
jeh is not caring for the bros. tell that to a witness and the classic answer is eccl.
