Question

Today, I lost my job. It was over something stupid. Honestly, I never saw it coming. It was my fault, but it is what it is.

Where I go to church, very few people like me anymore. (I said some things about the prophets they bring in not being prophets. And they're not.) I've lost my best friends to marriages and jobs. I was hosting a bible study, and people suddenly lost interest. People were getting spirit-filled, and I couldn't understand them just... stopping... Just like that. So losing my job today was the last straw.

I've read lots of things about adults packing up and leaving and not saying a word. But I'll be leaving with my five-year-old, and that's so scary. Honestly though, this should've been done a long time ago. His dad is a pedophile and looking at prison time, and he's a dangerous man. 

I'm a child of the King. I know I'll be taken care of. But I'm so scared... What will happen to us? What if we run out of money? Do you think God would object to an adult running away? Please help...

Whether you decide to 'disappear', or, not . . . 

I would like to encourage you to get yourself a personal Bible study with Jehovah's Witnesses (n/c) at your convenience.  

If you specifically ask, they will help you to consider the Bible principles which apply to your situation.

And, if you start a study where you are and then move, you can take up where you left off wherever you move to: http://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/what-is-a-bible-study/

Plus, you are more than welcome to visit our Bible-based meetings & speak with us about your concerns:  

You Are Warmly Invited!

"God" will have nothing to do with your future. If you run out of money, it isn't going to rain down from the sky. If you can't pay your bills, your landlord isn't going to let you stay for free.

I'm sure you can find another job where you live now. If you don't like your church, find a new one. Get a restraining order on your son's father if possible.

Pray on it & ask God, He will give you the answer. Its not wrong to pack up & try to make a better life somewhere else. Its a big world & God made all of it for us.

Doesn't sound like your King is doing much 'taking care of' you at the moment
