    I have been asked to bring my poem up again.... Since I cant find it I will have to repeat it >

    Ex Witness Lament
    -------------------------------------
    I look upon my life today
    And wish that I had known
    There was an easier way
    For my kids I could have shown
    Instead of hours of rushing out
    to meetings's door & halls
    to distant town's & cities too
    Waiting for advice from the Watchtower crew
    There was just ONE who's voice to hear
    Who said "Be still my friend"
    My yoke is light -your in my sight
    No need to rush around each night
    in frezzing rain,in sleet,& heat,
    Expressing you have comely feet
    Many of you work in pain
    A need THEY say ,your life to gain
    He paid the price for you & I
    Why listen to that other lie?
    So lift that yoke,put on the cloak
    Salvations His to give
    Keep watch THIS day,keep in HIS way
    His light will shine our path alway

    Thank you Grace.........

    Because this poem sums it up for my life.

    I'm happy today because He showed me the way out of the control of the WT and into a real brotherhood of His people.
