Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone is using Meeting Media Manager ? https://sircharlo.github.io/meeting-media-manager

What you said is true. And everyone can say the same thing simply by changing the number to 50, 60 , 70 , years ago. Here's another perspective ~ If Adam and Eve had not sinned, you and the rest of us would not have been born. We are alive as a result of every little thing that happened since they had their first children. If they had not sinned, the human race would have gone in an entirely different direction. It seems weird, but we live because they sinned and Jehovah deemed their yet-to-be-conceived children as deserving of life. In Br Winder's talk "Manifest Godly Patience", he makes the point that God's patience is purpose oriented, he wants to give people a chance to change. But, his patience is not due to babies being born every day, and wanting to give them a chance to grow up and have the opportunity to know him, to make a choice. If that was the case, the end would never come. Jehovah's attributes are perfectly balanced, and the time will come when patience can no longer be warranted. At that time, justice and righteousness demand action. We understand that the 'good news' will be preached right down to the end. So, Jehovah exercises patience, holding out the opportunity to know him, until it can't be warranted, and he knows when that time is. It's on the divine calendar.

I'll share!!..We have about 10 inches as of right now. Will get out tomorrow to measure, and you can have some cold air too..it's a low of 8 F. tonite!

Awesome comment, sister Cyndi! That's the right way and outlook to live. I was also looking for that "Keep in Expectation" article, so thanks for sharing the source!

Maybe it is annoying but I find it really difficult to attempt a task only to have the computer deny me access to the task or information and remind me that I have to be an administrator to do that.

All anointed that have died have not had it come in there life time.... all we can pray for is to stay faithful.

I’ve noticed that we often feel a strong urge for the end to come, and it is driven by deeply personal convictions. In many (if not all) cases, this longing is sincere. We are tired, we are hurting, and we want relief. I really do. But could it be that we sometimes miss a vital part of the picture? The vindication of Jehovah’s name. When our focus shifts too heavily toward wanting the end to arrive simply so our problems will disappear, we risk losing sight of one of the foremost reasons the end matters at all. The issue is not only our relief, but Jehovah’s sovereignty and name. While the end has not yet come, we are still living in a truly remarkable spiritual environment: one that offers access to understanding, guidance, and unity that no generation before us has experienced in this way. Jehovah, on the other hand, continues to have his name misrepresented by the greater populace. If the end had come twenty-seven years ago, I would not have been born. I would not have had this opportunity to know him, to reason, to choose, or to grow. That realization leaves me with no room for telling Jehovah what to do; only gratitude. Many times, it brings me right to the core of my emotions, because I recognize that Jehovah patiently waited for me. It doesn’t change my belief that the end is close (even way closer), and I know many feel the same. However, I find it valuable to engage in what I call scenario analysis, deliberately considering the less comfortable and ugly possibility: what if it does not come as soon as we expect? What if it takes another seven years… or fifteen… or even twenty? What would life (our lives) look like then? Is there something — even something small — that I could adjust now? Could I set a meaningful spiritual purpose for that span of time? Could I learn a skill that could be useful in the new world, especially in the early years? Planning for the new world is one way we get ourselves busy. I am working on cloud technology currently. I intend to apply it in the early years of the new world. I am so widely optimistic about it, lol. But someone needs to keep JW.org active in those early years before it is discontinued if it ever is. And if I can start now, maybe I can be useful for that purpose then and even now in the branch. I am just offering another perspective that could help us endure this system if it persists. Instead of anchoring ourselves to a single outcome, we prepare for scenarios and faithfulness over time. It helps us remain steady, productive, and spiritually focused even if our expectations are delayed.

Proverbs 20:3 shows that honor isn’t proved by winning an argument, but by knowing when an argument isn’t worth entering. Some disputes don’t advance truth; they only drag everyone involved into needless contention. In those moments, restraint protects dignity. Arguing the obvious with someone committed to nonsense doesn’t elevate the truth—it only entangles the one who should know better. Sometimes silence preserves honor more effectively than explanation.

Can I have some please?

In a way I think it would be unfair for them to taste death from old age…

Sunday, February 1 It is honorable for a man to refrain from a dispute, but every fool will become embroiled in it.—Prov. 20:3. Brothers who manifest fine Christian qualities are an asset to the congregation. A reasonable man promotes peace. If you want to be known as being reasonable, listen to others and be open to their viewpoints. In a meeting, would you be willing to support the decision of the majority if no Bible law or principle is violated? Do not insist on doing things your way. Appreciate the value of many advisers. (Gen. 13:8, 9; Prov. 15:22) Instead of being harsh or disagreeable, be gentle and tactful. As a peaceable man, take the initiative to make peace, even in tense situations. (Jas. 3:17, 18) Your kind words can soften the attitude of others, including that of opposers.—Judg. 8:1-3;Prov. 25:15; Matt. 5:23, 24. w24.11 23 ¶13

Yes, I know. I still hate having it. Why must everything be so complicated for a laptop that is not used for a job? 😞

Found this on another website. These are the patterns made by various planetary orbits:

The Google-translated English PDF is mostly accurate in substance, but it is not a reliable legal translation. It contains structural errors, ordering problems, and several meaning-level distortions that matter if this document is used seriously (legal, advocacy, or credibility contexts). Recours-gracieux Eng.pdf

because the method I could use might not be each person's favored method so I'm leaving everyone the freedom to chose This is how ChatGPT would translate it for example And this is Online PDF Translator I don't intend to read it in english so I think it's better to let you chose however you feel is better for you
