Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in A LITTLE, NICE WONDER ❤
A blind little girl sat on the steps of a building
with a hat by her feet, and a doll in her hands.
She held up a sign which say: "I am blind, please
help." There were only a few coins in the hat. A
man was walking by. He took a few coins from
his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He
then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote
some words. Soon, the hat began to fill up. A lot
more people were giving money to the blind girl.
That afternoon the man who had changed the
sign came to see how things were. The girl
recognised his footsteps and asked, "Were you the
one who changed my sign this morning? What did
you write?" The man said, "I only wrote the truth.
I said what you said, but in a different way.' I wrote:
Today is a beautiful day, but I cannot see it."
Both signs told people, that the girl was blind. But
the first sign simply said, the girl was blind. The
second sign reminded people how fortunate they
were to have their sight. Should we be surprised
that the second sign was more effective? Yes !
Be thankful for what you have.
Be creative.
Be innovative.
Think differently and positively.
If Satan remind you of your past, you too remind
him of his future.—Rev. 20:1—3,10.
When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show
life that you have uncountable reasons to smile.—
Isaiah 65:17—25.
Face your past without regret.
Handle your present with confidence.
Prepare for the future without fear.—Rom. 10:13)
Keep the faith and drop the fear because escaping
does not solve the problem.
Been remembered that faith is not about
everything turning out okay. Faith is about being
okay, no matter how things turn out.
It's a beautiful thing to see a person smiling
But even more beautiful if you are the reason for the smile

Queen Esther reacted to Johnny Paulick in JW's in Denmark Having Fun
Juli måned er også den varmest og " næsten " den eneste sommermåned vi har hvor man kan være sikker på vejret.. Det er derfor Danmark er så Grønt og frodigt et land når det ses fra sattelit.. Ellers er vejret fra sidst i maj til midt i sep. OK... Men du kan ikke aftale at skulle Grille eller arrangerer udendørs arrengementer mere end 1 dage i forvejen; man er aldrig sikker på vejret i Danmark.. Men det vigtige er jo også som ovenstående billed viser...... At der bliver forkyndt trods vejret, og at vi alle er ved godt humør.! Du må snart til Danmark igen. Vi har Regional stævne d. 7-8-9 Juli 2017 i Silkeborg, hvor I alle er velkomne til at dukke op. Der plejer at være cirka 3000 til stæde.

Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in Texto Diario, Lunes 17 de abril 2017
No nos metas en tentación (Mat. 6:13).
http://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/4/17
Debemos pedirle una y otra vez a Jehová que nos ayude a mantenernos firmes cuando surja la tentación. A veces, la crianza de una persona o su conducta del pasado pueden hacer que se sienta atraída por las cosas que Jehová condena. Pero aun así, Dios puede ayudarla a hacer los cambios necesarios. Después de haber cometido adulterio con Bat-seba, David le imploró lo siguiente a Jehová: “Crea en mí hasta un corazón puro, [...] y pon en mí un espíritu nuevo, uno que sea constante” (Sal. 51:10, 12). Aunque el deseo de cometer inmoralidad sea muy intenso, Jehová puede hacer que nuestro deseo de obedecerlo sea más intenso aún. Aunque los malos deseos estén muy arraigados en nuestro corazón y nos cueste tener pensamientos puros, Jehová puede ayudarnos a vivir una vida limpia. Él nos ayudará a mantener la mente libre de pensamientos impuros (Sal. 119:133). w15 15/6 3:5, 6

Queen Esther reacted to Queen Esther in Texto Diario, Domingo 16 de abril 2017
Danos hoy nuestro pan para este día (Mat. 6:11).
http://wol.jw.org/es/wol/dt/r4/lp-s/2017/4/16
Al parecer, Jesús habló del pan para referirse a las necesidades básicas en general. De hecho, enseguida explicó que Dios viste a las flores del campo y preguntó: “¿No los vestirá a ustedes con mucha más razón, hombres de poca fe?”. Al final dio este consejo: “Nunca se inquieten acerca del día siguiente” (Mat. 6:30-34). Estas palabras nos enseñan a no ser materialistas, sino a contentarnos con tener cubiertas nuestras necesidades del día: una vivienda digna, la sabiduría para hacer frente a las enfermedades y un empleo, entre otras cosas. Ahora bien, si solo le pidiéramos a Dios que cubriera nuestras necesidades físicas, estaríamos demostrando que no tenemos claras nuestras prioridades. Hay necesidades espirituales que son mucho más importantes. Jesús dijo: “No de pan solamente debe vivir el hombre, sino de toda expresión que sale de la boca de Jehová” (Mat. 4:4). De modo que debemos pedirle siempre a Jehová que nos dé ese alimento al tiempo debido. w15 15/6 5:4, 7, 8

Queen Esther reacted to Micah Ong in "Faithful slave" and the "Publishers."
Be Loyal to Jesus only do not put your trust in man to whom no salvation belongs.
It's interesting that they are called the "Faithful slave" and the rest are called "Publishers."
Isn't it the other way around when you think about it?

Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in Daily text, Monday, April 17: 2017
Do not bring us into temptation.—Matt. 6:13.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/4/17
Do we regularly petition God to help us maintain our integrity when we are faced with temptation? Our upbringing or our past conduct may have developed in us a liking for practices that Jehovah condemns. Even then, he can help us to bring about necessary changes so that we can continue to serve him acceptably. King David recognized this. After he had committed adultery with Bath-sheba, David implored Jehovah: “Create in me a pure heart, . . . and put within me a new spirit, a steadfast one.” (Ps. 51:10, 12) Sinful conduct may strongly appeal to our fallen flesh, but Jehovah can stir within us a willing spirit, the desire to obey him. Even if wrong desires are deeply rooted and tend to crowd out our chaste thoughts, Jehovah can guide our steps so that we can obey his commandments and succeed in living by them. He can prevent anything harmful from dominating us.—Ps. 119:133. w15 6/15 3:5, 6

Queen Esther got a reaction from Blanchie DeGrate in Daily text, Sunday, April 16 2017
Give us today our bread for this day.—Matt. 6:11.
http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dt/r1/lp-e/2017/4/16
In referring to our daily bread, Jesus likely meant our immediate needs. Thus, he went on to show how God clothes the wildflowers, and then he said: “Will he not much rather clothe you, you with little faith?” He concluded by repeating this important advice: “Never be anxious about the next day.” (Matt. 6:30-34) This shows that rather than be materialistic, we should be content with our basic daily needs. Such needs may include suitable accommodations, employment to provide for our family, and wisdom to cope with health concerns. If we were to pray only for such physical needs, however, it would indicate an imbalance. We have spiritual needs that are of much greater importance. “Man must live,” said our Master, “not on bread alone, but on every word that comes from Jehovah’s mouth.” (Matt. 4:4) So we should continue to pray that Jehovah will keep on feeding us with timely spiritual food. w15 6/15 5:4, 7, 8

The sisters had prepared sandwiches and drinks for the as always early arrivals. Parents and other adults arrived later. One 12 year old study named Digna brought along six of her friends. Three of them asked María Alegría if they could each have a regular Bible study like Digna has!

None of these Quichua speaking children have had an opportunity to take a picture before. This was their first lesson. First rule, keep the heads in the frame!

Totoras, Ecuador. 1.5 hours before the Memorial, locals, especially children, began to arrive at the small house we rent monthly for the Group meetings. They happily watched many Carlitos and Lucia Quichua videos.

'Selfies' are a category of their own, some like them and some don't. Personally I like photos taken of persons taking their selfie. An interesting change not having everyone looking directly at the lens.

@Johnny Paulick ..........
Åh, jeg er ked af, med så meget regn
Når jeg brugte som teenager i Danmark, i juli ...
da det var meget varmt, og havde vi ingen regn!
Det var på øen Rønne - meget flot.
Og jeg troede, de danske brødre var altid så sjovt
hahaha - Men et flot billede, jeg kan lide det.
God stemning smittede ja til altid være positiv !
Men himlen er ikke længere ligner regn ....
og skærmen er lukket!
Jeg tror brødrene er bare sjovt

Oh, I'm sorry with so much rain
When I was a teenager in Denmark, in July ...
It was very warm and we had no rain!
This was on the island of Rönne - very nice.
And I thought the Danish brothers would always be so funny
Hahaha - But a nice picture, I like.
Good mood is always positive.
But the sky no longer looks like rain.
And the screen is closed!
I think the brothers are just funny

@Bible Speaks House - music is always nice ;-)) But I really miss the piano.... sorry In MY cong. we always played Kingdom songs, until we got that stop, so sad ;-(( We had 5 Brothers & Sisters for making nice music, also piano. And we still bought a new piano before... i could not understand that - and then a stop for all congregations ! In poor countries they not have such a great technology like in richer countries. They need instruments, I think so. Makes no sense in my eyes, NO instruments ! But always obey what our org. want....
But I know, its little different in some countries, bec. another culture ! Thats very interesting I love that ❤ Btw. I know Stamatis Kioutsoukis from our German JZ - site.... He gave often comments to my postings ;-))

What a joy! When I was a little girl I had a Brother and Sister come every Summer to the lake. They would play Kingdom songs. She played the piano and he played the violin. The music sounded like this. Memories! Of course I was born in 1954 so that was in the 60's they would come. They also drove a Model - T Ford. Thank you for sharing Stamatis Kioutsoukis!
