May Jehovah continue to watch over his precious sheep.

You may recall this horrific news story three years ago. The sounds of the shots we imagine still echo in our minds, as we keep mulling over the question in our heads: How much longer, O Jehovah? How much longer? That topic is closed now and won't allow any more posts. So I will continue it here. A brother whom I know sent me the following information about what is happening now in the Kingdom Hall, a little more than three years after the tragedy. He wrote it all in French, but since his email is lengthy and I didn't want to translate it myself, I asked GoogleTranslate to do the honours. It doesn't appear to be taken from an article that I could find, and so contains no links. Other articles appearing in newspapers report another recent shooting in Germany; nothing to do with us. However, I was unable to find any others specifically about this Kingdom Hall. But considering how long I have known the brother who sent this to me (about 25 years), I trust him.

Element, never heard of them myself.

Sunday, July 12 Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but yield place to the wrath; for it is written: “‘Vengeance is mine; I will repay,’ says Jehovah.”—Rom. 12:19. When the apostle Paul urged Christians to “yield place to the wrath,” whose wrath was he referring to? According to the context, it is Jehovah’s wrath. We yield place to Jehovah’s wrath by letting him bring about justice in his own time and in his own way. After a brother named John was treated unfairly, he said: “I had to fight the urge to pursue righting the wrong in my own way. Romans 12:19 helped me to wait on Jehovah.” We benefit when we wait on Jehovah to correct a matter. If we do so, we will be spared the burden and frustration of trying to solve the problem ourselves. Jehovah offers to help us. He says, as it were, ‘Leave the injustice to me; I will take care of things.’ If we accept Jehovah’s promise “I will repay,” we can let the matter go, confident that he will handle it in the best possible way. w24.11 6 ¶14-15

We actually applied for this for November. And we have a few friends who attended St John's Newfoundland last weekend.

You will be in my prayers bro and sis in Ukraine. The whole world is affected by the inflation because of war

May Jehovah continue to be with you brothers. It is hard for us to see this war and know how this is affecting our brothers not only in Ukraine but, in other parts of the world as well. We long for Jehovah to put an end to this. Enjoy your convention.

This song is so moving, so beautiful! It makes you wish you’d never have to sing it. If only Adam had felt that deep in his heart... I wonder what Jehovah would have done.

Still Looking Toward Your Light. https://jwtalk.net/topic/63465-david-deguzman-will-they-be-impressed-gilead-talk/?do=findComment&comment=1103614 [Verse 1]: One moment looked like light, I let it in, And lost myself before I saw the sin. Beauty spoke louder than what I knew was right, And I disappeared inside that hidden night. I wore the silence like a second skin, While something broke in me beneath my sin. I came back home, but I was not the same, Only falling tears could call Your name. [Chorus]: Jehovah, Father, You still know my heart, Even when my world has come apart. I don’t deserve to call You mine, But Your mercy still calls out, “You’re still Mine.” I lift my eyes through all my shame, And You still whisper my name. Hold my weary heart once more, And lead me back to Your door. [Verse 2]: Years went by but the wound stayed awake, Every breath still carried my mistake. I wore a smile that no one could see through, But nothing I built could ever hide from You. The silence followed everywhere I went, A shadow that I never could resent. So I stepped out from the shadow I made, And let the truth be finally displayed. [Chorus]: Jehovah, Father, You still know my heart, Even when my world has come apart. I don’t deserve to call You mine, But Your mercy still calls out, “You’re still Mine.” I lift my eyes through all my shame, And You still whisper my name. Hold my weary heart once more, And lead me back to Your door. [Verse 3]: Now I walk with a heavier soul, Still learning how to let it go and be whole. Memories rise like waves in the night, Pulling me back from the edge of light. I cannot change what lies behind, But I still reach for peace of mind. If all I have is one more prayer, I trust You’ll meet me there. [Chorus]: Jehovah, Father, You still know my heart, Even when my world has come apart. I don’t deserve to call You mine, But Your mercy still calls out, “You’re still Mine.” I lift my eyes through all my shame, And You still whisper my name. Hold my weary heart once more, And lead me back to Your door. [Bridge]: I know You are not far away, But my heart forgets each day. If forgiveness has already been shown, Why does my heart still feel alone? Still deeper than the pain I know, Your mercy continues to grow. Teach me to believe what is true, That I am still held by You. [Final Chorus]: Jehovah, Father, You are my song, Even when I feel so wrong. Your faithful love has carried me, Far beyond what I can see. I lay my tears before Your side, And You will never turn aside. Until the day my heart is whole, Your love remains the breath of my soul.

Thanks 😊

At times, we have needed to identify and connect a prophecy that has already been fulfilled.

I'll run out of a room in a heart beat if i hear baby shark lol. I'm so glad this fad died before i had my kid

That's awesome! I can't wait to start and enjoy the benefits too

I've been on a [mostly] carnivore diet since May 2023 and it's been life-changing. So much so that I did start a YouTube channel and another forum dedicated to diet and nutrition.

don't worry, this will make good publicity for this part of the forum

I did not know that. Can you move it or is it too late?

this section of the forum is made for this, no need to move that far

There is a section of the forum for this

Try this forum https://carnivoretalk.com/ It belongs to our very own @Brother_Bliss

Indeed.

I'm thinking of switching to a carnivore/keto diet due to inflammation and other health things. Does anyone have any FB or IG groups? I would love to get with some other friends who do the same.

Saturday, July 11 God loved the world so much.—John 3:16. Like Jehovah and his Son, we love people. (Prov. 8:31) We feel deep compassion for those who are “without God” and who have “no hope.” (Eph. 2:12) They are drowning in life’s problems, and we have the life vest that they need—the good news of God’s Kingdom. Our love and compassion for such ones motivates us to make every effort to reach them with the good news. That precious message can fill their hearts with hope, help them find the best possible life now, and give them the prospect of “the real life”—everlasting life—in God’s new world. (1 Tim. 6:19) Our love for people also moves us to warn them about the approaching end of this wicked world. (Ezek. 33:7, 8) We want them to know what will happen during the great tribulation—false religion will be removed and the destruction of the entire wicked system will follow at Armageddon.—Rev. 16:14, 16; 17:16, 17; 19:11,19, 20. w24.05 16-17 ¶8-9
