Studying the "Revelation" book used to give my 5 year old daughter nightmares about wild beasts. We quit going to meetings 3 years ago.
Our nightmare has ended.
do you still get nightmares?.
because last night i had the crap scared out of me.. i cant remember what i had been dreaming about, but something shocked me and i opened my eyes and i saw a figure standing beside my bed.. my body when straight into fight mode.. now this is the weirest part for me.i shouted at the top of my voice , very loudly "what the f**k" yet it wasn't me speaking , my body sort of took over and said it .my eyes sort of adjusted and the figure disappeared and a i think at that point i became wide awake.. my wife was woken up by my shouting.. my heart was racing and my hair standing on end.. i have had a similiar experience once before but i didn't shout.. the fact that i woke up shouting, really freaked me out.. what the crap was going on in my head?

my oldest daughter decided to da herself and i knew that i would never turn my back on her.
Hi Sndy
Maybe it is not a spiritual void at all. You seem to be a very spiritual person without the help of the WT.
Do you find you have more time now? I went to my niece's school soccer game the other day, the best afternoon I've had in 20 years as a JW. I plan to do more of this.
I am having the time of my life filling this "time void" left by previous Watchtower obligations.

I think you are extremely upbuilding. They delete all the good people and then what's left on their forum?
It is their loss. I am always happy to read your comments here.

I cut and pasted just the last part of the thread for you to read. The first part just rambled on about Isreal,last days and I just got bored with it. I do not expect my GC password to be working much longer.

Hey this is fun. The Admin must be at the WT Study. He is not doing his job. My post has been up since 10 AM.

But as it was they were taken by surprise. The Babylonians themselves say that owing to the great size of the city the outskirts were captured without the people in the centre knowing anything about it; there was a festival going on, and they continued to dance and enjoy themselves, until they learned the news the hard way.
It certainly shows how Jehovah can put the thought into someone's head to carry out his will, doesn't it? Like He will do soon with the UN.

Chris, thank you! That is so faith building to see secular history confirming what the Bible has to say.
That is an excellent point you make about the UN. Jehovah can manuever matters to bring a seemingly impervious enemy to their knees!!

I heard that the Watchtower Society had joined the United Nations about 10 years ago as a NGO (Non Governmental Organization).
I could not understand why they would do this.
I went to the UN website to confirm this last November and sure enough the Watchtower Society was on their list.
They have just been removed from the list so I Guess everything is OK now.
We just have to wait on Jehovah.
