Jehovah prepares his people for spiritual success. I know THAT much. He knows how to manœuver things, even for a klutz like me. I'm not good at finding a study partner, not on my own. It's never worked for me whenever I've tried so far, it's always backfired with elders sending me back to a cowering oblivion. I'm not interested in getting THAT ever again. I'm alone in my extended family for believing as I do, so I've never seen how proper connections are made, or I don't seem to have them now (if I've ever had them).

IF it is NOT wise for a man to be ALONE with a woman he's NOT married to
by Spike Tassel insola scriptura answered andersonsinfo:.
the wt leadership has hammered into all of it's elders and rank & file's heads, that it is not wise for a man to be alone with a woman he is not married too (adult or young woman... ie 14).
even in congregation sanctioned duties.. so, why, then, do so many service pairings involve just that: a brother alone in the territory (even if it's to make a call) with a sister he's not married to?.

KH Games
by cantleave ineven though my attandance at meetings is lessening, i still have to attend so as not to lose my income, friends and family.
i've started playing games to make the meetings go faster, for example, i have started annoying the hall servant by making silly requests such as asking him to turn the aircon on, then 10minutes later saying things like , "thanks for that but it looks like sister elderly is getting cold - she has just put her jumper on".
i also look for brothers and sisters who haven't got one or the books or the okm and make a real meal at getting one to them (its amazing how much noise you can make fumbling around the literature cupboard).. i am running out of ideas, can anyone else suggest something to to take the dullness out of the meetings.

which is why paying attention to how to make personal improvement in ourself is better than KH Games.

I can't ask her in person. I don't trust myself to do that right, not yet.

I don't know how to set things up right when I'm in person. And I don't know whether she has a computer, or how to find her online. If I could, I'd have no problem determining whether it would be worth asking her or anyone else, just as I have tried some conversations here on JWN, and from there by PM, and by e-mail. The search continues.

If your happy leaving the truth why continue.............
by angel eyes injust want to know why some of you,not all,please dont think im meaning all of you because that truly isnt the case,claim to be happy for leaving the truth,being df etc yet you continue to speak about jehovah or attack him or the organisation??
even for many years after.. this would show that your hurt by them df you.
when someone we love hurts us its natural to want to hurt them back because we have feelings for them.so im thinking that many have love for jehovah still??

I'm just looking for a partner to help me study how to have a proper sense of JW teachings so that I can live by them properly, and to help others to do likewise. If I get "tossed out" from anywhere, I wan't it to be because Jesus or Paul would have been tossed in the same circumstances.

by Janey214 inhello - first may i apologise for capital letters my keyboard has gone screwy.
for the last several months i have been having meetings with two really nice women from the jw organisation.
i don't want to offend anyone by asking these questions i am simply trying to better understand how the watchtower came about without listening to too much anti stuff.

Jehovah, Jesus, and those with a truly holy spirit always work in agreement. Love believes all things, even if it doesn't understand what they mean. Love just keeps listening and asking and learning what truth means, according to the teller's perspective.
