Real Love Shown By Him To Parents Not Celebrating Valentines Day and Why! 
Shared by @kj_padiosMy 6 yr old cousin Terence was given a homework assignment requiring him to make a valentine greeting for his mom and dad. 
Since he knew that it’s not good to do so, he made a thank you card instead, just like the one that SOFIA made. 
While writing his letter he is singing it in the tune of the “Be Appreciative” music video. Such a sweet kiddo! -Philippines

~ DO YOU SEE THE TIME ? CLOCK AND CALAMITY ON THE HORIZON? ~IT WILL COME! ~ LEARN NOW HOW TO GET AWAY SAFE! ~
(Ezekiel 7:5-7) “This is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said, ‘A calamity, a unique calamity, look! it is coming. 6 An end itself must come. The end must come; it must awaken for you. Look! It is coming. 7 The garland must come to you, O inhabiter of the land, the time must come, the day is near. There is confusion, and not the shouting of the mountains." (Ezekiel 7;24-27)
24 "And I will bring in the worst ones of the nations, and they will certainly take possession of their houses, and I will cause the pride of the strong ones to cease, and their sanctuaries must be profaned. 25 There will come anguish, and they will certainly seek peace but there will be none. 26 There will come adversity upon adversity, and there will occur report upon report, and people will actually seek a vision from a prophet, and the law itself will perish from a priest and counsel from elderly men. 27 The king himself will go into mourning; even a chieftain will clothe himself with desolation, and the very hands of the people of the land will get disturbed. According to their way I shall act toward them, and with their judgments I shall judge them; and they will have to know that I am Jehovah.’” - Bible Speaks -

TROUBLES THE WORLD HAS NEVER SEEN!
       In response, you might direct attention to the very beginning of mankindÂ’s troubles. GOD created the first human couple in his image and likeness—they were perfect. Yet, they introduced sin and death into the human family and thus into our life. They took sides with Satan the Devil on the issue of who has the supreme right to rule mankind. (Genesis 1:26; 3:1-19)
      Over the centuries, Satan has tried to prove that if humans are given an incentive to do otherwise, they will not serve JEHOVAH. You know that Satan has failed. JESUS CHRIST and many other servants of JEHOVAH have kept integrity to GOD and have shown that they serve HIM out of love. (Hebrews 12:1-3) Can you not think of any by name who are thus serving GOD loyally 
      You will note that some of the prophets drew attention to the luxurious lifestyle of people who were neglecting the worship of JEHOVAH. The prophets admonished GOD'S people to ‘set their heart upon their ways’ and to transform their lives. (Haggai 1:2-5; 2:15, 18; Amos 3:14, 15; 5:4-6)
      Yes, the prophets were showing the people how to live. Those who accepted that exhortation showed that JEHOVAH is their Sovereign, thereby proving Satan a liar. JEHOVAH will prove loyal to such ones when HE annihilates HIS enemies.—2 Samuel 22:26.
      This description may be figurative, but we can conclude from it that GOD'S acts will bring disastrous effects on the earth and its inhabitants. Not on all humans, though. The same prophets pointed to abundant blessings for those who “search for what is good” and thus keep living.—Amos 5:14; Joel 3:17, 18; Micah 4:3, 4. - Bible Speaks -

Another sample of the Russian government's absolute corruption
The police have discovered a big scam at the trauma research institute, whose director mikhail sadovaya has been charged with embezzlement and has been arrested.
Serious patients, such as cancer, have not received medical assistance since they were diverted.
The Russian government has just announced that these stolen funds have gone to the cult of Jehovah's witnesses. Funds from the federal medical facility budget were spent on the needs of the religious organization, according to the authorities. "the European Association of Jehovah's witnesses" was surprised, from the reading of publications by's media.
The " European Association of Jehovah's witnesses," said that " there is now a massive discredit and persecution of individual believers, realizing their constitutional right to freedom of religion and that they do not have a relationship with legal persons From Jehovah's Witnesses."

Low Self - Esteem? Many Things Can Erode This in Life! ???
“God is for us a refuge and strength, a help that is readily to be found during distresses.” (PSALM 46:1)
The eight points are as follows:
(1) Do not panic;
(2) think positively;
(3) open your mind to new types of work;
(4) live within your means—not someone else’s;
(5) be careful with credit;
(6) keep the family united;
(7) keep your self-esteem; and
(8) set up a budget.
 
Yearning for a Slimmer Body?? Research has found that “girls as young as five are dissatisfied with their bodies and wish they were thinner,” reports The Sydney Morning Herald. 
The report cites a study involving Australian girls aged five to eight. Nearly half the girls wanted to have skinnier bodies, while a similar number said that “they would diet if they put on weight.” One researcher suggested that unhealthy body images “could lead to low self-esteem, depression and eating disorders in later life.”

? Big box jellyfish have 24 eyes ?
•
? This is probably one of the more bizarre things we learned about jellyfish.
•
? Apparently their eyes are on the side of their body and all look inwards as they use their body as a lens to see through. Their eyes are grouped in six lots of four eyes.
•
? Jellyfish are fast swimmers ?????
•
? Studies show that big box jellyfish can swim faster than any Olympic swimmer.
•
? Jellyfish sleep at night ?
•
? Scientists have only recently learned that jellyfish settle on the bottom of the ocean floor at night to sleep and then feed during the day.

Pray for Indonesia - Fear Of Volcano ? 
Mount Sinabung, a volcano on Indonesia’s Sumatra island sent columns of ash shooting into the sky on Monday, prompting a "code red" warning to airlines by an Australian agency monitoring volcanic ash. This video is of Indonesian school children panicking and crying as they witness the sudden and massive eruption of Mount Sinabung this morning of February 19, 2018.  Pray for them! These are the birth pangs, the earth and all of creation is groaning just like the Bible tells us... #birthpangs #lastdays #bible #warned #us #pray #news #ashcloud #pyroclasticflow  #helpus #Eruption #Volcano #SignsOfTheTimes #love #life #followhim

Note: ?
Carrying a gun gave me a sense of power, so I can see the need constantly to work on developing humility. Satan’s system of things taught me to hate and kill and to be suspicious, aggressive, and defensive. But Jehovah has extended mercy and loving-kindness to me, for which I am very appreciative. Now I am determined to continue to learn war no more and to have love and compassion for all.—Matthew 5:43-45; Isaiah 2:4.
It has not been easy for me to make changes. However, I have learned to live a more peaceable life. With GodÂ’s help I have also been able to cope with the nightmares resulting from my war experiences. I truly look forward to the time when wars and conflicts will cease. (Psalm 46:9) Until that time comes, I am grateful for the opportunity to serve in the lifesaving work of helping people to learn about our grand Lifegiver, Jehovah God.

“Jehovah answered Job out of the windstorm:
 
 2 “Who is this who is obscuring my counsel
 
And speaking without knowledge?
 
 3 Brace yourself, please, like a man;
 
I will question you, and you inform me.
 
 4 Where were you when I founded the earth?
 
Tell me, if you think you understand.
 
 5 Who set its measurements, in case you know,
 
Or who stretched a measuring line across it?
 
 6 Into what were its pedestals sunk,
 
Or who laid its cornerstone,
 
 7 When the morning stars joyfully cried out together,
 
And all the sons of God began shouting in applause?
 
22 Have you entered the storehouses of the snow,
 
Or have you seen the storehouses of the hail,
 
23 Which I have reserved for the time of distress,
 
For the day of battle and war?"
(Job 38:1-7, 22-23).
 
Being stuck out at sea among the icebergs and sea ice can make you pretty restless and uneasy.

My favorite thing about this photograph is that this was Ethan’s first time ever wearing crampons and ice climbing, a very unlikely place for a lesson! @andy_mann 

What Is the Key ? to Success?
Success in most endeavors depends largely on patient perseverance. Whether it is mastering a new language, learning a trade, or even developing a relationship, most things of value are achieved only through sustained effort.
“Nine times out of ten,” says author Charles Templeton, “success is directly attributable to one thing: hard work.”
Columnist Leonard Pitts, Jr., notes: “We talk about talent, we nod to luck, but so often, we ignore the most important things. The hard work and many failures. The arriving early and staying late.”
This confirms what the Bible long ago stated: “The hand of the diligent one is the one that will rule.” (Proverbs 12:24) Diligence means that we persevere in our efforts. This is necessary if we want to achieve what we set out to do. - Bible Speaks -

Indonesia's Mount Sinabung Volcano has erupted today, sending ash over 45,000 feet high.
The volcano was dormant for four centuries before awakening in 2010. Since 2014, it has been at its highest alert level.
The ash cloud is projected to drift west over the Indian Ocean as it is pulled into upper levels of the atmosphere. Be Safe Friends and Prayers!

I WOULD NEVER DO THAT ~
 ?????????????
Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the tree that God had forbidden them. You think: "I never would!"
But do your daily decisions show that you consider that obedience to God is the best way of life?
 
Lot's wife missed abandoned products and became a pillar of salt. You think: "I would never do that!"
But are you always happy with what you have and do not envy anyone?
 
Peter denied Christ three times, fearing the opinions of the people. You think: "I would never do that!"
But were you ever afraid of what family members, colleagues or classmates would say when they knew you were a Christian?
 
Jonah refused to fulfill God's mission to preach to the people of Nineveh. You think: "I would never do that!"
But are you always willing to preach the word of God?
 
Korah and his associates rebelled against Moses. You think: "I would never do that!"
But, perhaps, did you criticize the Elders in your Christian congregation?
 
For many years, Solomon was faithful to God, but then he began to sin. You think, "I would never do that!"
But does the same fire of love and zeal for God burn you, as at the beginning of your spiritual journey? "I would never do that!" - We think, when reading the Bible.
"He who thinks he is standing, be careful not to fall," God warns us lovingly (1 Corinthians 10:12). 
Thank you Jose G.

No JOKE HERE! - History can not be rewritten only what we do to others. As Christians we learn that teaching and discipline is not in the spanking but in instruction and guidance.
I was spanked but learned much from it, my Father was an Elder and thought it Ok, Jehovah has taught us what and how to do it. Be wise my son and make my father rejoice.
My four children have done well, two Elders, Bethelites and Pioneers. Teaching and instruction is how we show love. For the scripture says, what father that does not love show discipline?
Yes Godly Wisdom is the key ?
“Look for Him With Discipline”
Imperfect people need discipline, and they need it from childhood onward. “The one holding back his rod is hating his son,” says the king of Israel, “but the one loving him is he that does look for him with discipline.”—Proverbs 13:24.
A rod is a symbol of authority. At Proverbs 13:24, it refers to parental authority. In this context, employing the rod of discipline does not necessarily mean spanking a child. Rather, it represents the means of correction, whatever form it may take. In one case, a rebuke kindly given to a child may be sufficient to correct improper behavior. Another child may require a stronger reproof. “A rebuke works deeper in one having understanding than striking a stupid one a hundred times,” says Proverbs 17:10.
Parental discipline should always be directed by love and wisdom for the benefit of children. A loving parent does not overlook his child’s faults. On the contrary, he looks for them so that they can be removed before they become too deeply rooted. Of course, a loving parent takes to heart Paul’s admonition: “Fathers, do not be irritating your children, but go on bringing them up in the discipline and mental-regulating of Jehovah.”—Ephesians 6:4.
