THANK YOU,

DWIGHT WASHINGTON got a reaction from Queen Esther in RUSSIAN CONGREGATION. - THEIR ROOM HAS BEEN CLOSED BY THE AUTHORITIES ;-(
I too feel for our brothers and sisters in Russia. But my message to them as well as to us is found in God's word the Bible, it reads "Be strong and do not become discouraged, for your activity will be rewarded."(2 Chronicles, 15:7).

DWIGHT WASHINGTON got a reaction from JaniceM in Do people really need to know and use the word "Jehovah" or other language equivalents, to truly know God?
I WAS TOTALLY UNAWARE OF THIS FACT UNTIL IT WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION BY OUR CIRCUIT OVERSEER. THE TITLES USED TO REFER TO JEHOVAH, TITLES LIKE GOD, LORD, ALMIGHTY, ETC. APPEAR SOME 2000 PLUS TIMES IN THE BIBLE. THE NAME JEHOVAH APPEARS 7216 TIMES. I THINK THAT SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF USING JEHOVAH'S NAME.
MY NAME IS DWIGHT, HOWEVER IF YOU CALLED ME "HEY GUY" IT WOULD NOT MEAN THE SAME IN TERMS OF OUR RELATIONSHIP. WHY? BECAUSE YOU FAIL TO REALLY GET TO KNOW ME ON A PERSONAL BASIS.
TO DRAW CLOSE TO JEHOVAH, YOU NEED TO KNOW HIM PERSONALLY AND CALL HIM BY THE NAME HE GAVE HIMSELF.

DWIGHT WASHINGTON reacted to Queen Esther in Evening Dinner with my old Father....
Evening Dinner with my old Father.....
A son took his old father to a restaurant for an evening dinner. Father being very old and weak, while eating, dropped food on his shirt and trousers. Other diners watched him in disgust while his son was calm.
After he finished eating, his son who was not at all embarrassed, quietly took him to the wash room, wiped the food particles, removed the stains, combed his hair and fitted his spectacles firmly. When they came out, the entire restaurant was watching them in dead silence, not able to grasp how someone could embarrass themselves publicly like that. The son settled the bill and started walking out with his father.
At that time, an old man amongst the diners called out to the son and asked him, “Don’t you think you have left something behind ?”.
The son replied, “No sir, I haven’t”.
The old man retorted, “Yes, you have ! You left a lesson for every son and hope for every father”.
The restaurant went silent.
Moral: To care for those who once cared for us is one of the highest honors. We all know, how our parents cared for us for every little things. Love them, respect them, and care for them.
NWT
Eph 6:2 “Honor your father and your mother” is the first command with a promise.
