THE OLD SHOE - BOX ❤ A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about. For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside. She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box. When he …

3 A P P L E S....... A teacher teaching Maths to seven-year-old Laiq asked him, “If I give you one apple and one apple and one apple, how many apples will you have?” Within a few seconds Laiq replied confidently, “Four !” The dismayed teacher was expecting an effortless correct answer, three. She was disappointed. “Maybe the child did not listen properly.” – she thought. She repeated, “Laiq, listen carefully. If I give you one apple and one apple and one apple, how many apples will you have?” Laiq had seen the disappointment on his teacher’s face. He calculated again on his fingers. But within him he was also searching for the answer that will ma…

Proverbs 20:19 19 A slanderer goes about revealing confidential talk; can be a mark of respect. (Job 6:24) Controlling our tongue to keep quiet about a confidential matter gives evidence of discretion and discernment. (Prov. 20:19) Restraining our tongue when we are provoked is the course of wisdom.—Ps. 4:4. Use the Power of Your Tongue for Good “May the words of my mouth . . . be pleasing to you, O Jehovah.”—PS. 19:14. ??????? On the other hand, the Bible also says that there is “a time to speak.” (Eccl. 3:7) If a friend gave you a beautiful present, you would probably not store it out of sight. Rather, you would show your appreciation by …

"Jehovah can make him stand." —Rom. 14:4. ??? JEHOVAH wants us to be happy, and he pours out on us many blessings that should lead to happiness. For one thing, we are alive. Hence, we can use our life to praise God, since he has drawn us to true worship. (Ps. 144:15; John 6:44) ??? Jehovah assures us of his love and helps us to endure in our service to him. (Jer. 31:3; 2 Cor. 4:16) We enjoy the spiritual paradise, where we find both abundant spiritual food and a loving brotherhood. Beyond that, we have a precious hope for the future. ???

"Make sure of the more important things." (Phil. 1:10). ⚓️???⚓️ Setting realistic goals can yield rich dividends. Take, for example, the goal of discussing the day’s text every day. ⚓️???⚓️ The comments given by family members can help the head of the household to discern the degree of their spirituality. ⚓️???⚓️ The goal of regularly reading the Bible together as a family provides an excellent opportunity for children to improve their reading skills as well as their comprehension of the Bible’s message.

RUSSIA. SCHOOL DIRECTORS FORCED TO REPORT CHILDREN WITNESSES ;-( Parents of child witnesses are being summoned to the school as the case accompanying this document, to warn them that if their child speaks of God to other classmates or sings songs from Jehovah's Witnesses, he will be reported to the police and will consider giving him ANOTHER FORM OF EDUCATION. Absolutely no other religion is receiving this bitter persecution even to their children. It is more than proven that the Russian government and its lover the Orthodox sect whore, have gone directly to the Jehovah's Witnesses. In connection with the decision of the Supreme Court, a schoolgirl faces a tr…

26 "But Lot’s wife, who was behind him, began to look back, and she became a pillar of salt." (Genesis 19:26). ???? “REMEMBER the wife of Lot.” (Luke 17:32) That warning given by Jesus Christ nearly 2,000 years ago is now more important than ever. But what did Jesus mean by this solemn warning? His Jewish audience needed no further explanation. They knew what had happened to Lot’s wife. While fleeing Sodom with her family, she had disobediently looked back and was turned into a pillar of salt.—Read Genesis 19:17, 26. ???? Why may Lot’s wife have looked back, and what did her disobedient act cost her? ???? But why did Lot’s wife look back? Was she …

Two young deaf sisters.... ( and a Bible student ) There were two young sisters in a meeting. Both were good announcers. One of them was in pioneer service and happy to be able to start at last. The other bought a car. How proud she was about her car, so it polluted and used it and enjoyed it with it away. The pioneer, on the other hand, had more time for the service and found in her area a nice woman with whom she began a Bible study. Very enthusiastically, she told her about the value she was studying. Soon she came to the first meeting. The pioneer was completely out of the way. Meanwhile, the other sister had her joy with her car. The pioneer was abl…

Let them praise the name of Jehovah.—Ps. 148:13. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/30 Countless Bible verses show the importance of God’s name and its sanctification. (Ex. 3:15; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 42:8; 43:10; John 17:6, 26; Acts 15:14) Jehovah God—the Author of the Bible—inspired its writers to use his name freely. (Ezek. 38:23) Omitting the name, found thousands of times in ancient manuscripts, shows disrespect for the Author. The evidence for retaining God’s name in the Bible has not diminished but grown. The 2013 revision of the New World Translation includes the name 7,216 times, which is 6 more than the 1984 edition. Five of the additional instances…

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) - An Uber driver from Charlotte, who has been missing since Saturday night, is believed to be in grave danger by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.

Based on information obtained during the investigation, officials say the case has been moved from the police department's missing persons unit to the homicide unit. Do investigators believe the driver is dead? "I hope for the best," said Major Cam Selvey. "I have no way of knowing what his condition is now but I go…

Ever since being tagged as “extremist” by the Russian Supreme Court Jehovah’s Witnesses have been constantly facing persecution and violence. Apart from vandalism, Jehovah’s Witnesses also report of persecution from the state. Discrimination Against Jehovah’s Witnesses Worse After Ban Put in Place For instance, there have been cases where bank accounts belonging to members have been frozen by the government. Recently, an assembly hall belonging to the group was stoned in St. Petersburg while the home of a member was burnt down. The ban is believed to have played a key role in spreading the hatred for the group even further. Russia, ruled by President Vladimir Putin, …

"I'm with you." (Matt. 28:20). Our King, Jesus Christ, has given us the tools to prepare the hearts of millions of people and sow into them the message of the kingdom. Some of these tools have served us for a few years; others have served us for decades and decades, but all have helped us in one way or another to be preachers outmaneuvered. One of the tools that helped many to take their first steps in the preaching was the card of testimony, that he began to be used in 1933. This card was printed a biblical message. Helped the who spoke little and those who speak much. The first were shy and didn't know what to say, although they had many desires to preach. The seco…

"Keep this mental attitude in you that was also in Christ Jesus."—Phil. 2:5. ??? Jesus’ Exclusive Devotion to God. As shown in Philippians 2:5-8, both when he was in heaven and when he was on earth, Jesus appreciated the exclusive position of his Father and rendered him exclusive devotion. Jesus pointed out that the most important commandment in the Law demanded wholehearted love of God. (Mt 22:37) ??? Moreover, Jesus manifested exclusive devotion to Jehovah’s name and emphasized the fact that his disciples should have the same attitude. In the prayer he taught his disciples, he started off with the words, “Our Father in the heavens, let your name be …

Many Christians, past and present, who have faced and overcome persecution report that at the height of their trials, they experienced inner peace, one aspect of the fruitage of God’s holy spirit. ???

Are YOU Balanced? Why Avoid Extremes? ??? JEHOVAH is the epitome of balance. “Perfect is his activity,” and his justice is never harsh, since it always incorporates mercy. (Deuteronomy 32:4) His love is never unprincipled, because he acts in line with perfect laws. (Psalm 89:14; 103:13, 14) ??? The Bible foretold for our time: “Men will be . . . lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God.” (2 Timothy 3:2, 4) The pursuit of pleasures has become one of Satan’s most effective tools to lure people away from God. Indulgence in recreation and entertainment, such as in extreme or “adrenaline” sports, is flourishing. The list of such activities is constantly ge…

I am with you.—Matt. 28:20. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/29 Over the years our King has given us tools to use to help prepare the hearts of millions to receive the Kingdom message. Some tools were useful for perhaps a decade or so, while others have proved to be of timeless value. But all these tools have allowed us to develop our skills as evangelizers in some way. One tool that helped many get started in the ministry was the testimony card, which Kingdom publishers began using in 1933. The card contained a brief Bible message. The testimony card was helpful in more ways than one. Although having a strong desire to share in the preaching work, so…
