Funny how these people think that Jehovah will arrange for a backhoe to fill a basement, or a storm to knock down a tree that the city won't let you remove, but doesn't prevent his young servants from being sexually abused, or whatever.

DOES JEHOVAH KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON, AND DOES HE HELP?
(As told by Bro. Spangenberg, C.0.)
1. The bomb planted in the Kingdom Hall in Australia , where one Brother was killed,=2 0was meant to kill everyone, and would have; but the bomb rolled backwards so the force or the blast was away from the friends,rather than aimed at them.
2. A new Hall was built in Brooklyn . However, a large tree was
Inconveniently located in the center of the parking lot, and a city
Ordinance forbade it's removal. That night, a storm blew it down, and it conveniently fell in the middle of the street. No harm came to the Hall. Because it blocked the street, the city of New York had to remove it, at no expense to the brothers.
3. In Florida , a Hall building was delayed, because the basement hadn't been back filled and the brothers had no means to do so. While the inspectors were at the site, a bulldozer showed up, did the job, and drove off. He returned to tell his boss; he'd finished the job at the Hall. The boss replied, 'Hall!? I told you to go to the mall!' The job was done at
No expense to the brothers.
4. The brothers were building a 2-day project, and were short of roof trusses. None could be obtained for 3 days. Nearby, a semi-truck overturned, blocking traffic. What was it carrying? Trusses! The police wanted them removed. The brothers moved in and hauled them away. Although some were damaged, enough were gathered to finish the project, at no cost
To the brothers.
5. A Hall project was planned on an island. However, no sand was available for the mortar. (Many of th ese islands are formed from coral.). The only sand was on property owned by the Catholic priest, and he wouldn't sell to the brothers. A storm came up and washed the sand from the priest's land to where it was available to the friends. The project was completed,
And everyone was happy but the priest.
6. In Poland , where the work was, at the time, done underground, 3 elders were working on a country road. The sky was cloudy. Suddenly a bolt of lightning killed the middle brother. The other 2 hurriedly hid his body in the bushes, to go and remove literature, etc. From his home before the officials came. (The officials would take over any possessions they found and would give them to whomever they felt could use them. ) Among his possessions were found a complete list of all the Witnesses from miles around. He was not a brother, but an imposter, planning to turn this list over to the police! As Bro. Lauriz says, if these hadn't come from Bethel , we'd never believe them!
7. In a country where the work is banned, a brother was trying to get through a series of roadblocks, with the trunk of his car loaded with literature. He was stopped by a policeman who asked him if he would take him to a certain destination as his car was broke down. The Brother agreed, the policeman got in the car, took his policeman's hat off and put it on the dashboard of the car as they drove along. They passed through five road blocks and each time they were waved to go on through because of the policeman being with him. When they reached the end, the policeman thanked him and got out. The Brother asked him what the roadblocks were for and he said, 'Oh, those Jehovah's Witnesses try to get through with their literature and this is set up to stop them.' So he had escorted theBrother right through with his literature!
