Queen Esther

All these blessings will come upon you and overtake you, because you keep listening to the voice of Jehovah your God—Deut. 28:2. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/8 As Christians, we can benefit from the guidelines that were given in the Law to the nation of Israel. How so? We can stop and look at the underlying principles of the Law. Even though we are not under those laws, we can view many of them as trustworthy guides in our daily lives and our worship of our holy God, Jehovah. He had those laws recorded in the Bible so that we could learn from them, be guided by the principles, and appreciate the higher moral standards for Christians. Listen to what Jesus said: “You heard that it was said: ‘You must not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who keeps on looking at a woman so as to have a passion for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Thus, we need to avoid not only the act of adultery but also the sexual craving to share in immorality.—Matt. 5:27, 28. w16.03 4:6, 8

Aquí venía a su encuentro Husai el arkita, con su traje talar rasgado y tierra sobre la cabeza (2 Sam. 15:32). https://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/5/7 Husai era un amigo del rey David que necesitó valor para ser leal a él y a Dios. ¿Qué ocurrió? Absalón consiguió el apoyo de mucha gente y trató de quitarle el trono a su padre, quien tuvo que salir huyendo de Jerusalén (2 Sam. 15:13; 16:15). ¿Qué haría Husai? ¿Abandonaría a David para unirse a Absalón? ¿O seguiría a su lado a pesar de que el rey era un anciano que estaba huyendo por su vida? Como estaba decidido a ser leal al rey que Jehová había nombrado, fue a buscar a David al monte de los Olivos (2 Sam. 15:30). Allí, el rey le pidió que volviera a Jerusalén, fingiera ser amigo de Absalón y lo convenciera de no escuchar a su consejero principal, Ahitofel. Husai fue muy valiente y estuvo dispuesto a arriesgar su vida con tal de ser leal a Dios. David le pidió a Jehová que ayudara a Husai, y su oración fue escuchada: Absalón prefirió hacerle caso a Husai, no a Ahitofel (2 Sam. 15:31; 17:14). w16.02 4:15, 16

Thank you very much, dear Leonor Patan Greetings from Germany ! PS. I love that song too ❤

Hushai the Archite was there to meet him, with his robe ripped apart and dirt on his head.—2 Sam. 15:32. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/7 A man named Hushai needed courage to be loyal to God. Hushai was a loyal friend of King David. However, his loyalty was tested when David’s son Absalom won the heart of many and sought to take Jerusalem and the throne. (2 Sam. 15:13; 16:15) David fled the city, but what would Hushai do? Would he switch his loyalty to Absalom, or would he follow the elderly king who was fleeing for his life? Resolved to be loyal to the king appointed by God, Hushai met David on the Mount of Olives. (2 Sam. 15:30) David asked Hushai to go back to Jerusalem, to pretend to be Absalom’s friend, and to frustrate the advice of Ahithophel. Risking his very life, Hushai proved loyal to Jehovah and did what David asked him to do. Just as David had prayed, the counsel of courageous Hushai did frustrate that of Ahithophel.—2 Sam. 15:31; 17:14. w16.02 4:15, 16

Please, lets be careful and NOT judging here ! Maybe its your opinion - okay. But ONLY ONE has to judge and that is Jehovah, right ? Only from writing you never know a human / JW. - I understand your feelings... you're new here, but SO fast with judging ? My advice, watching us all for a time, maybe your thinking is little different. I know some of us more years, thats the reason I write you. Greetings from Germany

Our God has promised us: No better way we’ll find, No higher way to peace, No finer way to love. This is the way to life, Thanks to our God above. (CHORUS) This is the Way to life; This is the Way. Don’t look aside; Not for a moment stray! God’s voice is calling: ‘This is the Way; Do not look back, for yes, This is the Way.’ (See also Ps. 32:8; 139:24; Prov. 6:23.)

¡Mira! ¡La esclava de Jehová! Efectúese conmigo según tu declaración (Luc. 1:38). https://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/5/6 María iba a concebir, dar a luz y criar al mismísimo Hijo de Dios. Cuando pensamos en el gran honor que recibió, es fácil olvidar que había muchas cosas que podían preocuparla. El ángel Gabriel le dijo que quedaría embarazada de manera milagrosa, sin tener relaciones con ningún hombre. Pero en ningún momento le ofreció ir a explicarles la situación a sus familiares y vecinos. ¿Qué pensarían al enterarse? De seguro a María también le preocupaba su prometido, José. ¿Cómo lo convencería de que no le había sido infiel? ¡Y vaya responsabilidad la de educar y cuidar al Hijo de Dios! No sabemos todo lo que pasó por la mente de la joven mientras Gabriel hablaba con ella. Lo que sí sabemos es que respondió con las palabras del texto de hoy (Luc. 1:26-37). w16.02 2:13, 14

Look! Jehovah’s slave girl! May it happen to me according to your declaration.—Luke 1:38. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/5/6 Mary was to conceive, give birth to, and raise the only-begotten Son of God! It is easy to think only of Mary’s wonderful privilege and fail to consider some of the practical concerns that might have seemed daunting. God’s angel Gabriel told her that she would become pregnant miraculously—without having relations with a man. Gabriel did not offer to go to Mary’s family and neighbors to explain the cause of her pregnancy. What would they think? Mary must have been concerned about her fiancé, Joseph. How could she convince him that, although she was pregnant, she had remained faithful to him? Moreover, what a responsibility it would be to raise, care for, and train the only-begotten Son of the Most High! We cannot know all the concerns that may have raced through Mary’s mind when Gabriel spoke to her. However, we do know that she answered with the words of today’s text.—Luke 1:26-37. w16.02 2:13, 14

Thanks for your detailed comment about that theme, dear sister @Arauna Satan is using all tricks / traps he can.... we must be very careful and pay attention more and more ! Also many different Islands have still mystery beliefs ! I also not interested, reading too much about that - only in our literature. Greetings from Germany ❤
