Earthquakes In One Place After Another...

[nanceebgd46]

Seriously, between hurricanes, mudslides, earthquakes etc...I am thinking that this

is not just by coincidence...everything is speeding up.  Now, we know time

moves at the same speed hour to hour in a twenty-four hour day...still, it seems

like time is flying by and whipping my head around with it...is it just me, or do

others feel likewise?

Can't wait for the annual meeting

Associated Press is now publishing 139 deaths.

Did anyone hear any news of our Brothers?

[Friends just call me Ross]

Death toll continues to rise as rescuers frantically work to free people from the rubble.  They desperately need portable lighting, so they can continue searching.

[Tia]

It breaks your heart viewing the rescuers pulling from the rubble the children in school.

Two earthquakes in New Zealand today too. They struck one hour apart.

Our forum friends in Mexico and NZ ok?  Prayers for the sadness we are seeing on the news.  It's close, very close.  Our earth is showing it needs Jehovah to put it back in balance.

And many more are still missing.

Wherever they are. 

[Tortuga]

Earthquakes, wars, reports of wars, storms, disasters, pushing and shoving...

 

I feel like I'm doing my bible reading everytime I turn on the news...

Breaking news on jw.org said: 

 

It's been confirmed that one sister was killed in Mexico City.

One sister still missing after her building collapsed.

In the city of Puebla one sister was severely injured and another sister was hospitalized. 

 

Not what we want to hear.

That's so sad. She is in the safest place now. Pray for our brothers and sisters over there.

In about two months we will be giving wide distribution to the December AWAKE! No. 6 - Is the World out of Control?

 

This would be very timely right now. I shudder to think how supremely timely it will be in another couple months.

I've just woken up and read this.  I know what the scriptures say about earthquakes in one place after another, but this is still unbelievable.  If we didn't have Jehovah instructing us, giving us food at the proper time, it'd be a very anxious time for sure.

A part of the peace of Christ which goes beyond all understanding is the fact that we have been mentally conditioned by Jehovah and Jesus for years to expect and accept all of this, knowing it is pointing to a much larger event beyond the simple comprehension of simple "disasters" as the world sees it. They pancic and struggle for control over these events, while we can let them roll on, confident that Jehovah will never let the Earth come to ruin. 

 

The world gets shocked, we were already waiting for these things. 

 

Timely that the GB set up go bags as well. I bet they have come in handy in all these disasters.
