And, now a couple more options she may want to check into. What a benefit for waiting for the inspirations given to others. Now to test the spirits to think through which advice is in harmony with Jehovah's will and which is contrary to it. Then formulate a flexible course, allowing for Jehovah's wisdom to elevate the path we each take from here.

update on my divorce situation
by depressed ini'm shocked!
if you remember my experience, in a nutshell, basically my ex-bethelite ex pioneer husband cheated on me with an older "worldly woman" from his job and left me suddenly.
i had no idea that we had trouble with our marriage, however, when i discovered the love letters from the other woman, he moved out, and a week after that, i received divorce papers.

That's another, very different point of view, if she wants to consider it.

By waiting on Jehovah, your answer became available to use in this decision, if she decides to consider it.

It's like any other religious war: it's an internal matter.

Christian neutrality means actively minding our own business, and taking care of the responsibilities assigned to us.
Christians are assigned to preach, to warn, to teach the Scriptures. This involves discretion, discernment, allowing other's to choose their course, and not trying to influence others with our simply personal views.
Christians are commanded to love God and neighbor, including our "enemies". Christians are told to pray in line with Jehovah's will, which includes His desire that no human should perish.
Christians are counseled not to love the world or the things in it, not to be a friend of the world. They to overcome the evil with the good, give Bible counsel where it may be beneficial.

Each human or government is to be judged according to the standards of the Bible, and not in comparison to anyone else. So, favoritism by human standards shows that we do not support Jehovah's view on matters.
When I have been personally asked to fill in a performance evaluation with respect to a company or government agency, I have seen no reason not to comply.
Defending and legally establishing the Good News has been done throughout Its history. What is not acceptable, based on passages such as 1 Corinthians 6, is to bypass the Congregation in matters which could just pertain to the Congregation. There is no problem to use the law of the land where legal rights and corporations are involved, or various other matters which are registered by the law of the land.
I didn't give up my right to vote, but my chosen Government (the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, or its representative, the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses) is not on the ballot. Every time I attend a meeting sponsored by the CCJW, I am voting with my feet. If I'm a member of the local Congregation, I vote on motions whenever they come up.

Who dare say to Jehovah that what He's doing is wrong!! The nations don't measure on Jehovah's scale, but His people do.

Many make claims that lack proper support, even you or me.
