GodÂ’s Name Changed My Life! AS TOLD BY SANDY YAZZIE TSOSIE TRYING to hide, my sisters and I were under the bed giggling and hitting each other when the Mormons knocked at our door.*Â When I finally answered the door, I rudely told them that we were traditional Navajo and did not want them talking to us about any white manÂ’s religion. Our parents had gone to the trading post for necessities. They were due back at sunset. On their return they learned that I had been rude to the Mormons. They gave me good counsel never to treat anyone with disrespect again. We were taught to treat people with respect and kindness. I remember when an unexpected visitor arrive…

We know that the twelve tribes of Israel were divided after King Solomon died. 1 Kings 11:10,11,31 Ten tribes became known as the Northern Kingdom and called “Israel”. The tribes of Judah and Benjamin were the Southern Kingdom and called “Judah”. Out of all who reigned both in Israel and Judah, only a handful were considered faithful to God. Amazingly, all of Israel’s kings supported calf worship and some, Baal worship; with only a few of Judah’s kings worshiping God. One of them was King Asa. “ Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as did his father David.” 1 Kings 15:11 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/… Today, we would say “great, great grandfat…

Let us work what is good toward all, but especially toward those related to us in the faith.—Gal. 6:10. Throughout the earth, there are millions who worship Jehovah and bear witness to his name and purpose. How should each worshipper of Jehovah view his fellow Witnesses? (Rom. 12:10) The apostle Peter wrote: “Now that you have purified yourselves by your obedience to the truth with unhypocritical brotherly affection as the result, love one another intensely from the heart.” Peter also told fellow believers: “Above all things, have intense love for one another.” (1 Pet. 1:22; 4:8) Because we have intense love for our fellow servants of Jehovah, we make up a unique…

Give me understanding, so that I may observe your law and keep it with my whole heart.—Ps. 119:34. When appropriate, explain to your children the reasons behind a rule or a decision you make. If a teenager understands your thinking on the matter, he is more likely to obey you from a willing heart. “Giving reasons helps teenagers to trust you because they see that your decisions are not arbitrary or capricious but reasonable,” says Barry, who raised four children. A teenager is also maturing into an adult with his own “power of reason.” (Rom. 12:1) Barry explains: “Teenagers need to learn to make sensible decisions based on reason rather than emotion.” When you …

::::::::::STOP JUDGING::::::::: If we appreciate the merciful nature of God’s justice, we will not be quick to judge others in matters that really do not concern us or that are of lesser importance. In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus warned: “Stop judging that you may not be judged.” (Matthew 7:1) According to LukeÂ’s account, Jesus added: “Stop condemning, and you will by no means be condemned.” (Luke 6:37) Jesus showed his awareness that imperfect humans have a tendency to be judgmental. Any of his listeners who were in the habit of harshly judging others were to stop it. Why must we “stop judging” others? For one thing, our authority is limited. The disciple Jam…

The Feeding of the 5,000 ! Jesus provides a meal for 5,000 people with only five loaves of bread and two fishes. Matthew 14:13-21 13 When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities. 14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick . 15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals . 16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depa…

Attitude Makes a Difference! ????? Which of the following do you think has the biggest effect on your happiness? your circumstances your genes your attitude SOME would choose “circumstances,” perhaps saying, “I would be happy . . . “if only I had more money” “if only I had a great marriage” “if only I had better health” In reality, though, attitude often trumps circumstances and genes when it comes to happiness. And that is good news. Why? Because unlike your circumstances or your genes—over which you have little or no control—you can control your attitude. “GOOD MEDICINE” A Bible proverb states:…

Keeping Anger Under Control - “Let Anger Alone“ ???? A calm heart is the life of the fleshly organism.” (Proverbs 14:30) ? The idea of controlling your anger is beautifully expressed by the Bible psalmist David. He said: “Let anger alone and leave rage; do not show yourself heated up only to do evil.” (Psalm 37:8) ? The way to avoid saying or doing something that you may later regret is to keep from getting “heated up” in the first place. Of course, that is much easier said than done. But it can be done! LetÂ’s consider three ways that you can get your anger under control. ? Reduce AngerÂ’s Intensity To reduce anger, slow down an…

An Albany-area mother says her daughter was physically forced to stand and put her hand on her chest by a teacher during the pledge of allegiance, and that the school has not handled the matter appropriately. What happened? Erin Moore's 6-year-old daughter attends Southgate Elementary School in the North Colonie Central School District. She told WRGB-TV that a substitute teacher physically forced her daughter to stand and grabbed her hand and put it on her chest when she saw the girl not participating in the pledge. The girl, who does not stand for the pledge for religious reasons, tried to explain to the substitute, but the teacher said "when she's there, she w…

LAST MINUTE Our brother Dennis Christensen, imprisoned in a Russian jail since May 2017 awaiting trial, has been sentenced to another 3 months, so he must be locked up in difficult conditions until 23 February 2018. He can then be sentenced to several more years. Judge Andrei Tretyakov during the 3-hour hearing did not satisfy the defense's request to replace the preventive measure in a softer one, such as house arrest. In addition, the court did not take into account the formal guarantees of the Royal Danish Embassy (the brother is a Danish citizen) who, for humanitarian reasons, has given assurances that he does not provide a new passport for Christensen captu…

"Delay, and be stunned; be blinded, and be blinded. They are intoxicated, but not with wine; they moved unsteadily, but not because of intoxicating liquor" - Isaiah 29: 9 Â The so-called "masters of the Law" despised the common people and certainly does not put to argue with the first passing on the Word of God. Indeed, anyone who tried, even indirectly, would run the serious dangers - compares John 9: 30-34 Apart from a few happy exceptions, they were the ones who had "sat in Moses' seat" and therefore thought to possess the Truth - Matthew 23: 1 According to their traditions and their own interpretation of the Scriptures , only they were allow…
