I  WILL  PRAY  FOR  HIM     

What  is  a  Selfie ?
A healthy mind leads to a healthy body,...
Inspiration and Motivation, Aim, smile, and shoot !...
Here is a new way to stay ahead of your peers,...
Bored of clicking photographs of other people ?...
Why not point the camera at yourself ?...
It's  time  to  say  *cheese*....
If you were a gadget freak, or a social networking junkie, you know what a selfie means,...
Though this latest entrant to the Oxford Dictionary is still a new phenomenon, many netizens are quite familiar with the term,...
What Is a Selfie ?...
A selfie simply means a photograph of yourself,  clicked by you,...
So when you strike a pose in front of your mobile phone camera,  you've just created a  "Selfie"
Now all you have to do is let the picture do the talking,...
Upload it to your favorite social networking sites and voila,...
The  world  is  looking  at  you !
Selfies are quite a rage among  teens,...
Not surprisingly,  many parents worry about this  *self-obsessive*  narcissist  trend that is taking over the next generation,...
Are Selfies Bad ?...
I am sure, that even the caveman who discover fire wondered whether fire was bad,...
To label a trend as bad only reflects on our inability to deal with change,...
Unlike the earlier generation, the younger crowd seeks much more spontaneous interaction and connectivity with the world,...
They have a different perspective about their environment,...
They understand the power of digital communication, and rely on their networking skills to get ahead in life

The  same  terrible  posting  
We should build ourselves up spiritually, because the world is truly bad enough.... we read that already in the Bible !  Maybe this type of topic belongs in a special category. The small sticker explains my feeling.

Enjoy  these  different, wonderful  hugs   ?*¨`*•..¸???¸.•*¨`*?
Also  animals  feeling  love  and  enjoying...







A  strong  spiritual  hug...


It should be the last warming proof of love, because the doctors had given up this tiny infant
He survived,  thanks to his mum.  ? .•*¨`*•..¸???¸.•*¨`*•. ?
I had posted this touching story 2 times already

Thank  you  dear  sister  @Betty Vargas....  Love  and  greetings  from  Germany,  my  home - Country

Agape to all with love from St. Anthony Idaho.

Diese  FALLE  nutzt  SATAN  sehr  geschickt  und  erfolgreich....  denn  die  meisten  Menschen  wollen  NICHTS  von
GOTT  wissen    Suchen  und  finden  wir  die  Wenigen,  die  wirklich  Interesse  zeigen,  dann  wird  Jehova  sie
zu  sich  ziehen  und  das  spüren  wir  beim  Studieren  mit  ihnen     ? .•*¨`*•..¸???¸.•*¨`*•. ?
Möge  Jehova  uns  alle  segnen  im  Dienst

Don't  look  to  much  to  the  past,  you  don't  live  there  anymore...
We're  living  in  the  present  and  looking  forward  to  the  *BEST  LIFE  EVER*
in  the  future     ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

They are the ones who have acted corruptly. They are not his children, the defect is their own.—Deut. 32:5.
No longer perfect, Adam could not reflect God’s qualities perfectly. He not only lost a marvelous future for himself but also handed down to his children imperfection, sin, and death. (Rom. 5:12) He deprived his offspring of the prospect of life without end. Furthermore, Adam and Eve could no longer have a perfect child; neither could any of their children have a perfect child. After turning Adam and Eve away from God, Satan the Devil has continued to mislead mankind until today. (John 8:44) God’s love for humans, however, endures. Despite Adam and Eve’s rebellion, Jehovah wants mankind to enjoy a good relationship with him. He does not desire any to die. (2 Pet. 3:9) So right after the rebellion, God made arrangements to enable humans to restore their friendship with him while he at the same time maintained his own righteous standards.—John 3:16. w17.02 1:12-14

Hold your servant back from presumptuous acts.—Ps. 19:13.
What are “presumptuous acts”? By definition, when someone rashly or impertinently does something that he is not authorized to do, he is acting presumptuously. Because of inherited sin, we all act presumptuously at times. But as King Saul’s example illustrates, if we develop a pattern of pushing ahead, sooner or later we will find ourselves in serious trouble with God. Psalm 119:21 says of Jehovah: “You rebuke the presumptuous.” Why is that? Presumptuous acts are more serious than innocent mistakes. First, when we act immodestly, we fail to honor Jehovah as our rightful Sovereign. Second, if we act beyond the scope of our authority, we are likely to get into conflict with others. (Prov. 13:10) And third, when it becomes clear that we have acted presumptuously, we may be embarrassed or even humiliated. (Luke 14:8, 9) Presumptuous acts do not turn out well. As the Scriptures show, modesty is always the right course. w17.01 3:4, 5

TEXTO DIARIO con PREGUNTAS para MEDITAR 24 DE FEBRERO DE 2018

TEXTO DIÁRIO DRAMATIZADO 24 DE FEVEREIRO 2018

Children don’t need fancy toys or technology.
They naturally yearn to explore the outdoors.
Hours could be spent playing in mud, watching clouds float by, or observing animals.
They see the simple beauty in nature.
They love all things, from slimy animals to the beauty of seasons and the mountains.
Children are curious to explore the natural elements around them

'Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God'  (Luke  12:6)
William Cowper, poet and hymn writer, who lived from 1731-1800 in England, apparently suffered from fits of melancholy and frequent attacks of spiritual despair which led to two suicide attempts.
On one of these occasions, during a time of deep despair and a dark night of the soul on a foggy night he set out from his home in London with the intention of jumping into the River Thames to end his life.
He got hopelessly lost in the fog and wandered blind for some time.  Eventually, lost and confused,  he walked into a home to  get out of the fog.
And the home he walked into ?
It was his own.
He sat down and penned the words of the beloved hymn,...
God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform
He plants his footsteps in the sea
And rides upon the storm
Ye fearful saints fresh courage take
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy, and shall break
In blessings on your head
Dear Brothers and Sisters, if you are going through a dark night of the soul right now and it feels that Jehovah God is far away, be assured he is standing in the shadows and as he knows about every sparrow, he knows all about YOU and he cares
When we commit and trust our life to Jehovah every day, " Weeping may endure for the night, but joy will come in the morning "even if it is eventually...

A  7 yrs. old  boy  seeing  out  from  the  train's  window  shouted....
"Dad  look,  the  trees  are  going  behind"
Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 7 year old's childish behavior with pity,  suddenly he again  exclaimed ...
"Dad, look the clouds are running with us"  the couple couldn't resist and said to the older  man...
"Why don't you take your son to a good doctor?"
The older man smiled and said...
"I did and we are  JUST  coming from the hospital,  my son was blind from birth, he just got his eyes today"
Don't judge people before you truly know them, the truth might surprise you, think before you say something.
( seen  by  Brother  Roger  D. Bamps )

Turns Him or Her Back.... ( welcome  home  my  son...)
" My Brothers, if anyone among you is misled from the truth, and another turns him back, know
that he who turns a sinner back back from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover
a multitude of sins " James 5: 19,20
A Christian may wander away from the path of truth
Whereas he has " passed over from death to life," he may be drifting back toward darkness and death
It is the duty of any Christian, not just the Elders, to help him to recover
It takes diligent application of God´s Word and earnest prayer to accomplish the recovery of an erring one.
If help " Is Not Given " the individual can go so far as to beyond repentance
He or She would then not desire to repent and return to the truth worship of Jehovah God
And that desire " Could Not Be Reklinded " See Heb 6:4-8 and 10:26-29
The expression " Turns him back " denotes that a sinner who is still of the world, never having accepted the truth, is not the person being discussed,  it is a Christian who has deviated from the truth that he once believed and followed
Jesus showed the care for his disciples that we should have for one another.
Dutch translation. DOET HEM TERUGKEREN
" Mijn Broeders, indien iemand onder U door misleiding van de waarheid is afgebracht en een ander doet hem terugkeren,
weet dan dat hij die een ziel van een zondaar van de dwaling zijns wegs doet terugkeren, diens ziel van de dood zal redden
en een menigte van zonden zal bedekken." Jakobus 5:19,20
Een Christen zou van het pad der waarheid kunnen afdwalen.
Ofschoon hij is " Overgegaan van de dood tot het leven," kan het zijn dat hij terugdrijft naar de duisternis en de dood.
Het is de PLICHT van iedere Christen, niet slecht de Ouderlingen, om hem te helpen terug te keren.
Om een dwalende te kunnen terugbrengen, is het noodzakelijk dat men ijverig Gods Woord toepast en ernstig bidt.
Als er GEEN HULP wordt geboden, kan de persoon ZO VER AFDWALEN dat hij niet meer tot berouw gebracht kan worden.
Hij of Zij heeft dan niet meer het verlangen om tot berouw te komen en terug te keren tot de ware aanbidding van Jehovah God.
En dat verlangen KAN NIET MEER OPGEWEKT worden.
De uitdrukking " Doet hem terugkeren," geeft te kennen dat hier NIET gesproken wordt over een zondaar die zich nog in de wereld bevindt en de waarheid nooit heeft aanvaard, het gaat hier om een Christen die is AFGEWEKEN van de waarheid die hij eens heeft geloofd en gevolgd.
Jezus was voor zijn discipelen net zo bezorgd als wij dit voor elkaar dienen te zijn. Zie  Hebr 6:6-8 en 10. 26-29

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast
A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair
Upon whose bosom snow has lain
Who intimately lives with rain
Poems are made by fools like me
But only Jehovah God can make a tree ?
By Joyce Kilmer, was published in August 1913
Kilmer died from a sniper's bullet on a battlefield in France on July 30, 1918 at the age of 31

You are wonderful my Sister @Queen Esther

Whoever informed the police about the public talk and meeting will have to answer to Jehovah himself as he is a traitor of the worse sort!

Pequei contra Jeová. — 2 Sam. 12:13.
Davi aceitou a correção de Jeová por meio do profeta Natã. Davi também orou a Jeová de coração, confessando seus pecados e dizendo que queria voltar a ter a aprovação de Jeová. (Sal. 51:1-17) Davi não permitiu que sentimentos de culpa o impedissem de seguir em frente; ele aprendeu dos seus erros. Ele nunca mais fez aquelas coisas erradas. Anos depois, Davi morreu fiel, e é assim que Jeová se lembra dele até hoje. (Heb. 11:32-34) O que o exemplo de Davi nos ensina? Ensina que, se cometemos um erro grave, precisamos nos arrepender de coração, confessar o pecado para Jeová e pedir o seu perdão. (1 João 1:9) Também precisamos buscar a ajuda dos anciãos; eles vão nos ajudar a nos recuperar em sentido espiritual. (Tia. 5:14-16) Quando aceitamos a ajuda de Jeová, mostramos que confiamos que ele vai nos perdoar e nos ajudar a levantar. Queremos aprender dos nossos erros, erguer a cabeça e seguir em frente no serviço de Jeová. — Heb. 12:12, 13. w17.01 1:13, 14

Heard that one several times in the past, though. It was good to hear it again, still.
