Speaking at Memoirs about my Tragedy to Purpose
I told my story in a different way and different format here. A timeline of the worst day of my life. But this is part of my story.

Meet Rg. "Struggles of being an introvert and language barriers."
Переглядів 104 місяці тому
Coming from a different country and culture can be a significant mental roadblock, especially with language barriers and a lack of support. Joining the military can provide a sense of purpose and belonging, as well as opportunities for personal and professional growth. Coming out to family members, especially in conservative cultures, can be challenging and may require time for acceptance and u...

This is Stephanie. Hear her story. She grew up a Jehovah's Witness and was outed in her late 20s. She has quite the comeback story of overcoming the trauma and has an important message for anyone who struggles with who they are.
Yes give up your mind and heart to the GB men of the Watchtower Corporation (JWorg.) even though they are dishonest lying apostates, who are actually condemned by Jehovah for being false prophets. .....and while your at it give up your money $$$ to these men so they can continue on with their sinning ways . How else can they afford their swimming pools, tennis courts and trips around the world where they get treated as adorn glorified celebrities. Just think one day you'll be able to join them in the lake of fire for eternity when Jehovah deals with them !!! Revelation 20:10 .... 10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
So did I but I would not sit outside when they had religion my father had taught me 2 prayers when I was little I went around all religions till I found my prayers so when I was 17 teen I converted to be a Catholic. My parents now dead never was treated any different than my sister and brother.
Two Americans asked God for guidance from their heart in whole sincerity, it was Allah who answered their call, one man came from Jewish family and other man came from U.S military family. Both men came to Islam for the miracle their experienced, true story posted on YT, unbias reports, both men started to hear Islamic call-to-prayer Azan in the middle of nowhere, both men reported same incident. Both men were former """enemies""" of Muslims. If it were NOT for the miracle, they wouldn't have bother with Islam, both men were truly longing for God and guidance. If your heart is pure, this could be you in the next, you cannot fake your supplication to Allah. Your Creator knows about you, more than you know of your own self inside and outside.
I posted two video titles below, search for the video title and watch it please. We muslims did not invite them to Islam and we were not involved with them and there is no middle man between them and the God who created them. If your heart is pure, then this could happen to you. The God of Quran, will not change the condition of people unless until people change what is inside their heart, believing beliefs choosing to believing with your free-will. If you have chosen to deny Islam, the God and the Quran, hey enjoy your free-will as well while you are on Earth and your return is to your Creator.

One of my really good friends is a JW. She is cool with everyone, but perhaps she is unconventional. She is open about discussing whatever and is pretty progressive in someways while being a stalwart member of that faith.
Apostle Paul was the Antichrist, he opposed the teachings of Jesus. The evidence is compelling. ua-cam.com/video/8g-fUWUccDQ/v-deo.htmlsi=SMmzO1YCMzhg9pTI
God is LOVE 🌈☀️
Thank you I love you Namaste
Your and amazing person Cody I love your coming out story I came out to my mom years ago and friends and they are very accepting and awesome much love from Connecticut I also love your arm tattoo 🙂❤️
Thank you Stephanie! You are an amazing person and I appreciate you telling your story. My daughter is part of the LGBTQ+ community and came out to us at 16. I was a regular pioneer and my husband an MS. It was not entirely a shock... And honestly we didn't care. We are all about being who you are... We just knew our family and friends were NEVER going to accept her as herself. So she pretended and just stayed quiet for 2 years and A LOT happened in-between, but long story short, we asked her forgiveness of us asking her to not live life as her authentic self all that time and we all left within 6 months of each other, including my adult son. 💗
Thank you! I am so glad she has you and a loving supportive family. It makes such a difference!
@@theBoundariesBabe 💕🏳️🌈
So glad you're out of the cult. For your sanity. Just love God and Jesus, through Christ is the only way.
Agreed!
Are you still in Seattle? I’m having an ex JW meet up out there in a few weeks and would love if you came
I am not but I would love to connect and when I am back I'd love to come if I am available!
@@theBoundariesBabe that sounds great ! Ironically you reply today because later on is the meet up lol but yes stay in touch and would love to meet up with you eventually
Great Job Thanks
Thank you 😃
Never baptised bible study from the Netherlands here😊 Just subscribed!
Isn't it crazy how different you are treated if you are baptized versus not?
Happy to sub to your channel. I am not JW (never in) but I am the oldest daughter and did the caregiving of my parents until they passed. While I would do it again, I would do some things differently that would have benefitted everyone better. I feel for your aunt! Looking forward to more of your content.
thank you for watching!
I do too! I have to remind myself that it is a choice and we can always take care of those we love but have boundaries that protect our own energy and mental health while doing so
Agree. Congratulations on having the courage to tell your story
Thank yo u
