Is it my JW background that has messed me up? Will I ever get rid of my passed? The fact that I left my jw husband and my faith...will I ever feel complete again or will it haunt me forever?
Will someone ever love me completely and unconditional?
Happy new year

Have you ever seen/felt/known God's power in YOUR life?
by XPeterX inyou spent months,years or even decades as a christian.you sacrificed everything for god,gave him everything you had,you would speak every day for him to others and would live as a person dedicated to god.what did you receive in return after all your efforts?did he help you when you were in need?if yes,are you 100% sure that he was the one who helped you?could you feel his holy spirit in your life?.
p.s:this topic has nothing to do with the org.

praying for a jw partner
by varian induring my early 20ies while studying the bible, and many years after babtizm, i never dated even one sister!
my cong was like in nomansland, and consisted of many older jws.
so it was pretty depressing as a young brother without the slightest hope of finding an appropriate partner.. but one day, a very hot looking sister joined our club for a while, so all of a sudden, there were all types of dudes from other congs coming to our meetings.. i don t know how this conversation came about, but one jw gave me the advice, not to mention a persons name in prayer, because god will know who the right sister will be a suitable partner.

What Did You Avoid In Order To Be A Good JW?
by minimus inwe were always told how the demons .
we avoided 2 door cars because it was (obviously) not a good service car.. there are plenty of things that you might think of to add to the list of no-nos for jehovah's witnesses.
any others?

Swearing, smoking (I'm a party smoker now), sexy clothes, sex, flirting, dirty dancing & basic instinct, not wishing people a happy christmas and happy new year or birthday, dancing and theatre lessons etc etc etc etc etc
basically avoiding anything that would have made me feel normal and happier

I'm happy that my boyfriend will come and join me from the north, our first New Year together and I think it will be quite calm. But I want to watch the fire works with him.

I find it very hard to believe in a god
by Newborn inbut i find it equally hard to believe in the evolution theory .
so for now, i chose not to believe in anything but myself and love.
that was all.

oh wow! thanks all for your posts. This subject will certainly be discussed for eternity...and I guess we will never know for sure and just have to accept that.
I respect all your comments and different views.
I guess I want to believe in a god and the wonderful, amazing earth, universe, nature, humans and animals, makes it hard for me to digest that it's all here by chance but then all the wickedness. It seems as if there's a god he doesn't care...
I've read some good books on the evolutionary theory and I can see that it has some "swiss cheese holes in it" but I know way too little. All I can say is that I'm not convinced....yet, in a way envy those who are. The chance of life to evolve the way it has must have bene sooo remote??!
It's perhaps to vast for me to grasp.
I may agree for now with Mandette, that there might have been a higher force who started it all and then evolution took over..

This is Why I Don't Like Having Pets
by XJW4EVR inwe moved a couple of days ago to a totally new area.
the cat we had seemed to be getting used to the new place, though she was hiding alot.
she would burrow herself under the sofa cushions or under our blankets.
