dear friends,.

maybe you're not that interested but i'm so in love, after many years of unhappy marriage.

i'm in love with a forbidden "worldly" man but still he's the best guy and most kind and genuin person i've ever known and he likes me back.

all those in the org who claims to belong to this class, are they just imagining it?

this has always been one of the big proof for me that this was the "truth".

that there actually are those who have the heavenly calling...it confuses me.... appreciate your thoughts on this.. have anyone in this forum, previously, claimed to belong to this group and can explain it, how it feels etc.?.

My story

2. friends
dear all, thank you for your warm welcome!

this is my story in short (pls excuse wrong spellings, english is not my native tongue and that it still became quite long).. i'm 34 and was born into the truth by parents who in their turn were baptist in young age.

i have one older sister who is currently serving at bethel with her husband and a younger brother who never embraced the truth (which was my big sorrow for many years).
