This quote expresses an important principle: If we keep making the same decisions, maintaining the same way of thinking, and holding on to the same habits, the results will usually not change. The Bible goes even deeper. It not only identifies the problem but also provides the solution. 1. Jehovah urges us to renew our thinking In Romans 12:2, we read: “Stop being molded by this system of things, but be transformed by making your mind over.” The Bible does not simply say, “Try harder.” It says: Change the way you think. If a person continually entertains the same negative thoughts, chooses the same harmful influences, or makes the same unwise decisions, the results will likely remain the same. But when Jehovah shapes our thinking through his Word, our life begins to change. Illustration: A ship’s captain cannot reach a different destination if he never turns the wheel. Even a small change in course can lead to a completely different destination after many miles. Likewise, small adjustments in our thinking can have a tremendous impact on our life. 2. Wisdom means learning from mistakes In Proverbs 26:11, we read: “As a dog returns to its vomit, so the stupid one repeats his foolishness.” That is a powerful statement. A wise person makes mistakes—everyone does. The difference is that he learns from them. Someone who keeps repeating the same wrong habit while hoping for a different outcome will often be disappointed. Jehovah wants us to stop and ask: What has not worked so far? What does God’s Word say about it? What change should I make? 3. Jehovah blesses meaningful change Consider Zacchaeus. When he met Jesus, he did not simply say, “I want to become a better person.” He made changes. He repaid what he had wrongfully taken and corrected his conduct. What was the result? Jesus said that salvation had come to his house. The change brought the blessing. Many people desire better relationships, greater peace, more joy, or spiritual progress. Yet all these things often begin with the question: “What change does Jehovah want me to make?” 4. The greatest solution: Ask Jehovah for help Some changes are difficult. Perhaps we have struggled for years with a particular weakness, fear, or habit. The Bible does not promise that change will be easy. But it does promise help. In Philippians 4:13, we read: “For all things I have the strength through the one who gives me power.” So the solution is not: “I must change myself.” Rather: “With Jehovah’s help, I can change.” A beautiful concluding thought Perhaps we could express the famous quote from a biblical perspective like this: “Those who keep walking the same path will usually experience the same results. But those who allow Jehovah to shape them can experience results they could never achieve on their own.” This is one of the Bible’s most beautiful thoughts: Jehovah does not see us only as we are today. He also sees what we can become with his help. That is why he lovingly encourages us again and again: “Renew your mind, and your life will change.”

My undisclosed song is 'Clandestined' A L Z M R

Well he does make music.

The new post on ig/tt is not on that other page, so they might have decided not to use it anymore for cross posting. But I’ve mirrored the new post on the telegram channel: https://t.me/jwpressroom/17 (along with all the other posts too!)

Well, good news ... We never needed to be on the list that members of the military say is their religion of choice.

Wait ... You are saying someone in the Trump family lied just to make money? I am shocked and appalled https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/06/04/ivanka-trump-jared-kushners-planned-albanian-resort-draws-protests/

I love "Preaching to All Sorts of People." Song 57. And this one Pauline, is specifically for you. https://www.jw.org/en/library/music-songs/original-songs/We-See-You-Sister/

Low expectations of this being on the update but there was a major renovation of an assembly hall near Bethel in Canada and it will be ready to be used this RC season. My other guess is about RCs in general

Like Tortuga said, which one? This thread is like a mothership. It carries all 🥰

“Hegseth’s Pentagon slashes the number of religious faiths it officially recognizes” https://apple.news/Adn3He9G_T8OgU07bA_r_PQ

Which one? 😁

Which means the great tribulation is really great?.. all systems of satan are destroyed. First religion, then commercial system . Last is politics.

What about staying on topic ?

I don't use Tiktok or Instagram either, and have no intention to make an account there, so that's very ok. I'm sure the sister didn't mean you are against the Slave, just that it's good that the Slave tries different methods to reach people. Maybe this pilot program won't be successful, or maybe it will be. We'll have to wait and see.

Actually, yes every year before the pandemic hit. This is my mall from the 80s and 90s. 🤣

I remember a WT article that said we may have to rely on Jehovah for our very next meal in the challenging times ahead.

Yes it does require to support Putin to have fuel coupons now only coupons grant fuel not money food shortages in Crimea as from today

The old Westminster Mall by 405 would be a good place to keep an eye on. Maybe they are just saying they are tearing it down...

What your saying is, someone like me who has downloaded videos and photos before and ran them through filters, FinalCut, or CapCut and turned them into memes? Or even any popular AI video editor and add and skew things? Then uploaded to any account? Yes, very possible. But as you know, it won’t be the official page since only Bethel has access to those accounts unless something happens like a brute force, malware or a backdoor it like Meta AI did.

Two of our midweek songs this week are lively and bright.

I have been distracted by a recurring earworm. I happened to see the name of a (popular)recording artist and was reminded of an occurrence from many years ago. My mother used to come home with a bunch of people from a bar, last call, and get me up to sing acapella to her drunken friends. I had a brief song that used to work on interrupting that earworm, but am looking for a kingdom song as my previous tactic is not completely successful. Most Kingdom music is emotionally moving to me and I am looking for something that is just joyfully positive without having to overthink the message. Any suggestions?
