Learn more about Elephants ? they are a Marvel Of Our Creator Jehovah God!
When an elephant calf is born everyone in the herd gets excited and wants to touch and smell the newborn. The pace of the herd—made up of related females and their offspring—slows down to accommodate the needs of the youngest.
The adults become very protective and surround the calf at all times. You canÂ’t get close without causing commotion, so I made this image with a long lens from a respectful distance.
This baby had been born just a day earlier; it could barely walk and its trunk was still limp. It takes young elephants a few weeks before they learn how to manage the many complex muscles that govern a trunk. ItÂ’s endearing to see them struggle with that odd appendage. Can you imagine how you would feel with a trunk dangling from your face?Â

A little honey is good ~ let your heart be joyful ~ pray for the wicked ~ he may turn back! ~ would that make you more joyful? ~ ?????
(Proverbs 24:11-34)
11 “Rescue those who are being taken away to death, And hold back those staggering to the slaughter.” 12 If you say, “But we did not know about this,” Does not the One who examines hearts discern it?” Yes, the One who watches you will know And will repay each man according to his activity.” 13 My son, eat honey, because it is good; Honey from the comb is sweet to the taste. ?
14 Likewise, know that wisdom is good for you.” If you find it, you will have a future And your hope will not be cut off.” 15 Do not wickedly lie in ambush near the home of the righteous one; Do not destroy his place of rest.” When your enemy falls, do not rejoice, And when he stumbles, do not let your heart be joyful.” Do not be upset because of evil men; Do not envy wicked people,” 20 For there is no future for anyone evil; The lamp of the wicked will be extinguished. And its stone wall was broken down.” 32 I observed this and took it to heart; I saw it and learned this lesson:
33 A little sleep, a little slumbering, A little folding of the hands to rest,
34 And your poverty will come like a bandit, And your want like an armed man.”

CUBAN MIGRANTS WITNESSES IN CAYMAN ISLANDS.
an intensification in the legal appeals of Cuban migrants in the Cayman Islands, most of whom can not afford to hire a lawyer and try to defend their cases independently.The situation has led to small protests at the center, including a more than a week hunger strike by Yoel, a prominent migrant at Cayman Compass in August, who was mostly blinded by one eye while working on a government protection team. After learning of his pending expatriation, a visibly distressed Yoel was placed in the courtyard of the detention center with a sheet that read: "Permitting injustice means opening the way for all those who follow it."
He maintained that if he returned to Cuba, he would be imprisoned for refusing to carry out tasks ordered by the government, as his faith as a Jehovah's Witness requires.
Yoel, who has not been represented by a lawyer, submitted his own handwritten appeal to the government in July 2016, after a letter from the Immigration Department of June 29, 2016 denying his asylum application. The letter said that Yoel could not demonstrate a well-founded fear of persecution and, therefore, did not meet the criteria for refugee status under the 1951 Refugee Convention.
"I appeal to the Court of Justice, I ask you to reconsider my case, given that if they return to Cuba, my life will become hell because of the Cuban authorities, I fear even more for my children who are young, 2 and 3 years old. They live alone with my mother, since unfortunately, her mother is mentally ill, "Yoel said in her handwritten appeal.
While his appeal was apparently not accepted, Yoel remains in custody, now seven months after his appeal deadline. The government declined to comment on his prolonged detention, which is now approaching two years.

A Circuit Overseer went out in the ministry, door to door, with a 7 year old boy. The brother asked the boy if he was ready.. The boy answered that he is always ready. The boy went to the first door, knocked and the person that answered was a man. The boy asked, "Sir, do you know Superman's secret identity? What his name is?"
The man answered, "Of course, Clark Kent." The Circuit Overseer was about to stop the boy when suddenly the boy asked "Well, do you know Gods name? The man said "Of course, Jesus." The boy shook his head and said "Mister, you mean to tell me you know a fictional persons name, but you don't know God's name, who is real.. Good thing I came to teach you, from the Bible, that the name of God is Jehovah."
The man showed interest and took literature. They went to the next door, it was the CO's turn and he said to the home owner.. 'Hi. Do you know the name of Superman's secret identity?"

WHAT DOES “THE SHOWY DISPLAY OF ONEÂ’S MEANS OF LIFE” MEANS ?
   In citing the things of the world, John mentioned “the showy display of one’s means of life.” When Adam and Eve were the only humans on earth, they could of course not make a ‘showy display of their means of life’ before other people, but they did manifest pride and it showed. When tempting Eve, Satan insinuated that GOD withheld something wonderful from her, so, the Devil told her that in the very day of her eating from “the tree of the knowledge of good and bad,” she was “bound to be like GOD, knowing good and bad” not consider she had no use for know BAD. (Gen. 2:17; 3:5)
  Satan thus suggested that Eve could gain independence from JEHOVAH leaving out the FACT THAT SHE WOULD BECOME AN OPPOSER OF JEHOVAH or a Satan. Pride was apparently a factor that caused her to accept the lie. She partook of the forbidden fruit, believing that she would not really die thus by her actions, calling GOD a liar . How wrong she was !
 We cannot expect to be holy if we are feeding on improper thoughts and desires. We must love JEHOVAH with “a clean heart.” (1 Tim. 1:5) But the heart is treacherous, and we may not even realize how deeply “the things in the world” are affecting us. (Jer. 17:9)
  Therefore, we should ‘keep testing whether we are in the faith, we keep proving what we ourselves are’ by honest self-examination in light of what we study in the Bible.—2 Cor. 13:5.
  Another factor that helps us to resist “the things in the world” is that we keep in mind John’s inspired words: “The world is passing away and so is its desire, but he that does the will of GOD remains forever.” (1 John 2:17)
   Satan’s system seems to be permanent and real. Nevertheless, one day it will come to an end as the BIBLE PROMISES. Nothing that Satan’s world has to offer has permanence or will last forever. NOTHING ! Remembering that fact is ENCOURAGING and will help us not to be seduced by the Devil’s enticements.
 Thank you for sharing ?

RUSSIA COULD HOLD JUSTICE
On the dock Prokhladnensky City Court - 70-year-old Arkady H. Hakobyan, who worked all his life with his own hands, running in Cool (Kabardino-Balkaria) for the armed conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. Arcadio H. - Jehovah's Witness for the Faith, for which he is now being prosecuted under the article "Extremism" (Part 1, Article 282 of the Criminal Code ..).The persecution based on the testimony of five prosecution witnesses, who, although they are not followers of the religion of Jehovah's Witnesses, claiming that they were allegedly on behalf of Akobián massively distributed publications of Jehovah's Witnesses visited only once to several meetings religious (which is unlikely in itself). In addition, these people claim that during the Hakobyan service he gave a speech in which he criticized other religions. Previously, Hakobyan had appealed to the Russian Investigation Committee to subject these five witnesses to criminal responsibility for false testimony. However, an adequate verification of your request for a crime has not yet been carried out.
The court proceeded to consider the case on May 16, 2017. 9 volumes of the case were read and the witnesses of the accusation were questioned. The weakness of the evidence, the prosecutor called as witnesses, including the police, who did not see the facts that distribute the literature and did not attend religious services, but only participated in the operational actions of investigation against the believers. On January 10, 2018, the state prosecutor announced the end of the presentation of evidence.
On January 11, 30 and 31, 2018, the defense party presented its evidence to the court. The lawyers affirm that there was not the same fact of the crime, that is to say, Hakobyan did not deliver a speech on which the witnesses of the accusation spoke. It is interesting that the lawyers presented to the court information about the whereabouts of the mobile phones of the prosecution witnesses, and it turned out that none of them at that time was near the liturgical building. To justify themselves in some way, the prosedcution witnesses falsely claimed that the believers "were forbidden to bring mobile phones to worship," so they "did not take them with them." Naturally, lawyers could also present evidence to the court that there is no ban on mobile phones, that believing phones brought them to divine services and even broadcast a spiritual program for those who are sick. This served as additional proof of perjury. In addition, the prosecution witnesses incorrectly mentioned both the internal situation of the liturgical building and the composition of the religious groups in which the services were held. Finally, the court receives numerous testimonies that there were no such citizens in the cult.
Sonia Hakobyan, the defendant's wife, was questioned as a defense witness. Unlike Arkady Akopovich, she is not a baptized Jehovah's Witness. However, they have been in a happy marriage for about 40 years. The husband, when he became a Jehovah's Witness 25 years ago, never forced her or her children to change their religion. All this does not correspond to the accusation against "Hakobyan" in "extremism". Both the family and the neighbors, among whom people of different nationalities, cultures and religions, respect the Arcadians, know him as a kind and understanding person.
The hearing will continue in the Municipal Court of Prokhladnensky on February 20, 2018 at 10:00.

The Bible acknowledges after learning BIBLE Truth, there is a danger of spiritual contamination from False teachings.
The apostle Paul warned: “Look out: perhaps there may be someone who will carry you off as his prey through the philosophy and empty deception according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary things of the world and not according to CHRIST.” (Colossians 2:8)
What a graphic picture this text paints ! Like beasts wanting to carry you off and devour you, FALSE TEACHERS can pose a real danger. - Bible Speaks -

Yes! We need love - that beautiful facet from Jehovah -  in our lives daily. We feed on love and it makes up prosper in so many ways; and it's contagious. We can't help but to reciprocate.  Without love, we can spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally die from a broken heart. But we are not without rescue.
"Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit" - Psalm 34:18 [NWT]
And if we do not love at all, we are nothing but a walking band of noise.Â
"If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.  And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing"-1 Corinthians 13:1, 2 [ASV].
Thank you so much for this! I needed such a nice reminder.
Every Creature and Creature Magnifies His Creative Works! We listen and learn so much. In the New World ? can you imagine what we will learn! I have always been excited about Science and the Universe. Whatever is in store IÂ’m willing to learn.Â
Thank you for your support and encouragement for others! Jehovah Bless!Â

PORTUGAL
Based on legal arguments that revolve around violations of several articles of the Portuguese Constitution and the Religious Freedom Act, a petition has been launched to the Portuguese parliament to extinguish the legal entity that represents the Jehovah's Witnesses in Portugal and eliminate this community from the national registry of religions recognized and protected by law.
The petition does NOT seek to prohibit Jehovah's Witnesses as a whole in the country. The petition denounces the institutional policy of shunning former members as a violation of basic human rights and psychological torture, and asks lawmakers and Portuguese judicial authorities to take measures to stop this abuse and suspend legal recognition of the entity. the branch until the shunning policies are changed.
The petition is now gathering votes. 1000 votes assure that the author (s) of the petition will receive a hearing in parliament to present their case; 4000 votes ensure that the parliament will debate the petition during its session.
You can see the petition here: http://peticaopublica.com/mobile/pview.aspx?pi=ExtRegistoATJ

This might sound surprising but in the early sixties when I was a teenager I was asked to conduct the Tuesday night Book study about two or three times when the conductor did not show up. There were a few men there but they asked me to do it because I appeared to be qualified to do it. Laugh.
The Book Study was at my home and my head was covered, of course.
We had meeting for Cart Witnessing yesterday and now Women will be called: KEY MAN if no Brother qualifies but SHE DOES! Chuckle! It’s time!

SHOW JEHOVAH YOU ARE GRATEFUL - I Love Him so much I move and exist because of Him! Thank you Jehovah!
????????
When we think of all that Jehovah has done for us, what do we want to do?
????????
When someone gives you a gift, most likely you show that you are grateful.
????????
And because you value the gift, you also use it. James wrote: “Every good gift and every perfect present is from above, coming down from the Father of the celestial lights, who does not vary or change like the shifting shadows.” (James 1:17)Â
????????
We are so grateful that Jehovah gives us everything we need to live and to be happy.Â

We realize how much he loves us, and we want to show him that we love him too. Is that how you feel? - Bible Speaks -
