Jehovah's Witnesses understand that the only paradise available to mankind at this time is a SPIRITUAL paradise. The current system of things has Satan as its ruler; until this "world" alienated from God ends, individual humans cannot expect miraculous experiences.
(John 12:30-31) Jesus said: “This voice has occurred, not for my sake, but for your sakes. Now there is a judging of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out [at the conclusion of the system of things]
(John 14:30) [Jesus said] I shall not speak much with you anymore, for the ruler of the world is coming. And he has no hold on me
(2 Corinthians 4:4) the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers

when my husband died. Jehovah has been here for me and helping me deal without my husband. Jehovah has been my special friend. Jehovah helps me deal with all problems that the devil sends my way. like we learned in the watchtower today about Job and how he stayed by Jehovah no matter what and that is how I feel. Praise Jehovah. I thank Jehovah everyday for sending his son Jesus Christ to earth, to die for us so that we can live forever on a palisade earth in the new system

He comes through for me every day that I open my eyes. Just the fact that I'm still breathing is a miracle in itself. I can look back over my past, and see where He has guided me, keeping me safe and healing what was broken. He mended my marriage, made Himself real in my life and touched me with so many gifts and talents that I use for His glory. He's given me a purpose and has an on-going plan for me. Never a dull moment, serving my Savior. <*)))><

He has lots of times. This one time, me and my sis were swimming at a public pool and I wanted to show off my diving skills and when I ran on the highest diving board my foot slipped and fell, I saw concrete it happened so fast, I just knew I was either severely injured or dead. I came out of the water where she was way out there. She said are you okay? Yes, what happened, she said I don't know how you wound up here next to me, it's weird. God's hand pushed me in mid air and I landed in the water. God is awesome.

He hasn't and I don't expect him to. He's not there to make our life better, we're here to bring people to him. When he comes through for us is when he has wiped this old system out of existence, and replaced to with a new system, on a Paradise Earth. No worry about making money, collecting riches, or getting ahead. Our task will be to take this Earth back to the glory it was meant to be, then head out into the Universe to explore and terraform other planets.

He proved his truth to me, that there is indeed only ONE TRUTH and nothing more. That isn't why I love him though, I do that because, wow, he boggles my mind with his kindness by allowing us to live our lives on this earth (yes, even in this "hell-hole" for as long as he has). It will all be over soon and then the real fun can begin on earth.

All the time, actually. "Luck" has kept me safe in many stupid situations, which had things gone a different way, could have changed the course of my life permanently. I'm really not religious, but I try to remember to thank the creator (whatever name) when something goes my way, and don't curse them when my own mistakes come back to roost.

All day Everyday. If it wasnt for him I wouldnt be walking, talking or anything. Everything is possible through him. Without him nothing is possible.

Everyday of my life in every situation. Specifically, He let me meet my husband even though we lived 9000 miles apart, he set it up, I doubt I would ever have met him had it not been for God.

He comes through for me every time I've needed Him. Faith is active confidence in the Living God.
