Perhaps it would be good for us to take some time to reflect on the many wonderful examples we have that can help us keep our spiritual vision clear and focused. One of these is Caleb. He did not allow what he saw happening around him to change what he knew about Jehovah. He saw many of his contemporaries losing their faith, but he never allowed their attitude to make him doubt Jehovah or the certainty of His promises. We too live in a world where many people are losing their trust in God or no longer believe in His promises. To keep our faith strong, we need to continue getting to know Jehovah more deeply, reminding ourselves of the beautiful qualities He has shown us, and taking time to meditate on His precious promises. There is something especially touching about Caleb’s example that I think is worth remembering: he had to wait 45 years to receive his inheritance. Yet he did not spend those years simply waiting for a reward. He spent them faithfully serving Jehovah. And what about us? Are we continuing to strengthen our friendship with Jehovah because we truly love who He is and appreciate His beautiful qualities? Or, perhaps without realizing it, has our faith become too closely tied to WHEN we expect to see our hopes fulfilled? Will we continue to trust in Jehovah with a patient and faithful heart, even if the fulfillment of His promises takes longer than we had expected?

What happened? Why doesn’t it seem like the confrontation between the king of the north and the king of the south is happening? Or do we just have to wait and see?

Two words stand out in this text , heart and stray. The human figurative heart is treacherous and can easily lead us astray. The scenario used is a young man and a devious wicked woman . That plays to his inbuilt natural desires . It is vital to protect our heart by constantly renewing our relationship with Jehovah. The word stray shows how we can quickly get in too deep . It does not have to be sexual, it can be whatever our weakness might be . It easy to kid ourselves and believe that we can handle a situation but perhaps we can’t? Thankfully , as Jesus showed in the parable of the prodigal son , Jehovah wants us back and is delighted if we return to him.

When you walk, there may be times when you trip. But when you do, you have two choices: you can ignore the reason you tripped and risk falling again, or you can recognise what caused you to stumble and take steps to prevent it from happening again. Just as you would tie your shoelaces to avoid tripping, we need to take practical steps to protect ourselves spiritually. Today, we are surrounded by entertainment that can influence the way we think and feel. Many movies contain graphic violence and disturbing scenes, while some cartoons introduce ideas and values that may conflict with Jehovah’s standards. When we are repeatedly exposed to certain content, we may gradually become desensitised to it and begin to view things that once troubled us as normal. That is why we need to be careful about what we allow into our minds and hearts. Rather than waiting until we have stumbled spiritually, we should take precautions beforehand. Before we watch something, say something, or message someone, we should pause and ask ourselves: “Would Jehovah approve of this?” Would Jehovah approve of the words I am about to say? Would he approve of the person I am choosing to communicate with? Would he approve of the content I am about to watch? By asking ourselves these questions, we can make wiser decisions and protect our friendship with Jehovah. After all, it is far better to prevent a stumble than to deal with the consequences of a fall.

Hi, is this the Front Desk? Great, This is Mr. Latham in room 2024. I'm gonna need somebody to come up to my room. My wife is hysterical, she's very upset and she's threatning to jump out the window. Yes, this is a personal problem, but the window won't open.

Friday, October 16 Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways. Do not stray onto her paths.—Prov. 7:25. Solomon’s account illustrates what can happen to any worshipper of Jehovah. He might fall into serious sin and later feel that everything occurred suddenly. Or he might say, “It just happened.” And yet, if he thinks about what actually occurred, he will likely discover that he took some unwise steps that led to his transgression. Those steps might have involved bad association, unwholesome entertainment, or frequenting questionable places—whether in person or online. Perhaps he had also stopped praying, reading the Bible, attending meetings, or sharing in the ministry. Like the young man discussed in Proverbs, he may not have committed the sin so suddenly after all. What is the lesson for us? We need to avoid not only the sin itself but also the steps that lead to sin. Solomon makes that very point after relating the account.—Matt. 5:29, 30. w24.07 16 ¶10-11

Thanks for confirming that we cannot turn it off - I will quit looking for the option to change it. Likewise, we are not happy with the change....

Hi, Thank you for making your music available for all of us to enjoy. I wonder if I could ask you the following. Does the organisation accept original songs from anyone for consideration. If so, what is the correct procedure for submitting them.

So there you go.....🤣

Wait! Wait! Stop the execution livestream! https://www.courtroominsider.com/2026/10/trump-calls-off-livestream-of-fort-hood-shooters-firing-squad-execution/?fbclid=Iwb21leAU9-h9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBwZG9mBXNydGMGYXBwX2lkDDM1MDY4NTUzMTcyOAABHh_BFsXpS8lmp9WA-X5TF6tuKDGBYQ4_TP0yBOkTYC97ASxhYlPqW3NqJ7PS_aem_EsNftyBFwQwlU9jhvs814g “I think streaming the execution for all to see might have been a strong deterrent... but, many very good and well meaning people would rather not watch him die, through streaming, or through any other visual device,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Yeah, that may be. In English it's a fair amount. Lol, maybe I should start reading in a different language. Might open new doors. 😂

We always found something to grumble about with Convention food service. Then they took it away and we grumbled even more ! That Nigerian convention looks fun . I would be watching the clock until lunchtime….

Sorry, just talking carp...

Strange, I haven`t found this probably because read translations.

Must you use such foul language? 😂

Can you do Gideon and the 300 men smashing the water jars and blowing their trumpets?

Very nice!!
