    ( Serve God Loyally Despite “Many Tribulations”)
    I see in my body another law warring against the law of my mind and leading me captive to sin’s law that is in my body. Miserable man that I am!—Rom. 7:23, 24.

    Satan would like to destroy your relationship with Jehovah, whether with frontal attacks of persecution or by slowly nibbling away at your faith through subtle attacks. One of the most effective subtle tactics Satan uses is discouragement. The apostle Paul admitted to feeling discouraged at times. Now, why would Paul—a spiritual “giant” who likely was a member of the first-century governing body—call himself a “miserable man”? Paul said that he felt this way because of his imperfections. He really wanted to do what was right, but he felt another force working against him. If you on occasion struggle with such feelings, do you not find it comforting to know that even the apostle Paul faced a similar challenge? w14 9/15 2:12

    Renounce unrighteousness.—2 Tim. 2:19.
    http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/10/10
    God’s Word gives specific advice concerning the types of unrighteousness that Christians must renounce or reject. For instance, in the immediate context of 2 Timothy 2:19, we find that Paul tells Timothy “not to fight about words” and to “reject empty speeches.” (2 Tim. 2:14, 16, 23) Some members of the congregation were promoting apostate teachings. Today, Jehovah’s people are not often confronted with apostasy within the congregation. Still, when exposed to unscriptural teachings, regardless of the source, we must decisively reject them. It would be unwise to engage in debates with apostates, whether in person, by responding to their blogs, or by any other form of communication. Even when the intention is to help the individual, such conversation would be contrary to the Scriptural direction we are given. Rather, as Jehovah’s people, we completely avoid, yes reject, apostasy. w14 7/15 2:9, 10

    I really appreciate the time you spend remembering our loved ones who have passed with a simple note. These obituaries and a nice way to show to relatively very few people that their lives were significant and their passing was noted.
    I like to see older ones with few family left mentioned. A comfort to the other lonely older ones that people do "see" and count them within the spinning globe.

    Jehovah said in the Bible, that we get more and more catastrophes to our end- time... so bad, we never had before. We can't stop it. Maybe, it will come around the world. We don't know what will come as next, but it will come, I see that daily in TV :-(  I believe, every country around the earth has any  problems, more or less. We can only wait, what will come next.  A very bad time, yes.

    Let your words always be gracious.—Col. 4:6.
    http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/10/7
    In our ministry, we usually speak to individuals. Each person has his or her unique background and problems. (2 Chron. 6:29) When trying to share the good news with someone, ask yourself: ‘If our roles were reversed, how would I want this person to view me? Would I be pleased if he viewed me only as a nondescript resident of the neighborhood? Or would I prefer that he get to know me as a person?’ Considering such questions can remind us to treat each householder as an individual. No one likes to be labeled “a negative person.” Being imperfect, however, we sometimes say things that we later regret. (Jas. 3:2) If we were to speak unkindly to someone—perhaps because we were having a bad day—we would not want to be labeled “rude” or “inconsiderate.” We would hope that the other person would be understanding. Should we not show others the same consideration? w14 5/15 2:5, 6

    Jehovah, please  rescue  us ❤
    Why should you be afraid of a mortal man who will die and of a son of man who will wither like green grass?—Isa. 51:12.
    http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2016/10/6
    Faith in Jehovah will help you to conquer your fears. If powerful officials try to restrict your freedom to worship God, it may seem that your life, welfare, and future are in human hands. You might even wonder if it is wise to continue serving Jehovah and angering the authorities. Remember: The antidote to fear of man is faith in God. (Prov. 29:25) Focus your attention on your almighty Father. He sees, empathizes with, and acts in behalf of those who suffer under unjust rulers. (Ex. 3:7-10) Even if you must defend your faith before powerful officials, “do not become anxious about how or what you are to speak, for what you are to speak will be given you in that hour.” (Matt. 10:18-20) Human rulers and government officials are no match for Jehovah. By strengthening your faith now, you can come to see Jehovah as a real Person who is eager to help you. w14 4/15 2:8, 9
