  Thanks to ((((((((Jgnat, lawrence, joy, tracy, bavman, popper, morty, Thegoodgril, lilbit and robyn.))))))

  Robyn, you have a PM.

  Michelle -- Lena says thanks for the hug.

  Lilbit -- my energy doctor prescribed something to help my cells have a bit more reserve strength in them -- vitamins and trace minerals. I'll have to look into that 714 x stuff as I can always drive across the border to a Canadian pharmacy.

  During meditation today I actually could see complex, colored patterns changing before my eyes as I focused on the cells. I often see colors, but not the complex patterns, so that was new and intriguing and encouraging! Thanks. I'm sure your thoughts, prayers, and vibes are helping me as much physically as they are emotionally.

  Giving your life for a Brother or Sister, would you have done it?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  often, we hear that jw's would give their life for a brother or sister anywhere in the world.

  the more i know jw's, the more i say, "heck no"!

  since jw's believe in the resurrection, why bother?

  Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! I always said that if I were called upon to give my life for one of my "Brothers" or "Sisters", God would test my resolve to do just that by making it a particular Sister whom I loathed (strong word, rare thing for me, but that is the apt description) for whom I would have to give my life. Nonetheless, I think I would have heaved a great big sigh and done it.

  Thanks, squinks, kls, under74, and mystery!

  I'm going to do some more meditation now, then get dressed and go to a chiropracter who also does energy healing this afternoon. As with Lena, I am trying to leave no stone unturned.

  You guys are great!

  Al Capone vs. Judge Rutherford

  ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith alone...for as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also" - james 2: 24, 26

  al capone vs. judge rutherford

  al capone gained his power by exploiting the weaknesses of people.. judge rutherford gained his power by exploiting the weaknesses of people.

  Hello, all!

  As many of you know, I believe in remote healing and the power of prayer. So I am asking those of you who also believe in these things to pray for me this time. (Lena is doing excellently well, thank you! )

  This past week I have been diagnosed with a suspicious lump in my breast. A core biopsy has already been done, and I will know more on Wednesday. In the meantime, I should like you all to visualize along with me that the tissue in my body change from something possibly seriously detrimental to a benign part of my healthy being. The lump is tiny -- only 1 cm. in diameter -- but irregular, and both the surgeon and my general practicioner believe it will need to be removed. My gut tells me that, indeed, I will have to undergo a lumpectomy with the removal of some lymph nodes, but it also tells me that I will come out all right on the other side of the surgery.

  Believing that thoughts can change outcomes, I invite you to visualize along with me the tissue becoming healthy and non-threatening. So much so, that when the lump is removed, the lab technicians will wonder that the tissue from the core biopsy and that from the lumpectomy come from the same lump.

  Thanks so much,

  the only section that refers to jw blood doctrine is this: a secretary's call to the operating room informed the trauma team that its unconscious patient was a jehovah's witness with religious objections to blood transfusions.

  no blood was given.

  change to Special Assy. Days, CA's and DC's

  by TheListener in

  2. friends

  i have been thinking about this for some time.

  i have been thinking how the society could maintain the same number of yearly obligations but lower their costs.

  i could see the society making some changes to the assembly/convention setup in the near future to cut costs.

  I dunno. My District Convention was held a further 7 minutes from my Kingdom Hall and even closer to my home than my assigned Assembly Hall. I always made larger donations at the District Convention. I don't think I'm the exception to the rule, either. I would expect that donations at DCs are significantly higher per capita than at Special Assembly and Circuit Assembly days.
