ROLF-MICHAEL i wan man we i laekem myusik tumas. Be tu, hem i stap tekem drag mo i fasgud long hem. Hem i olsem plante yangfala long Jemani we oli drong long strong dring mo oli yusum plante defren drag olsem LSD, koken, hasis, mo ol narafala drag we oli save spolem tingting blong man.

Afta we tufala i stat blong stadi Baebol, advaes ya i kasem hat blong Rolf-Michael se: “Yufala i mas stap klosap long God, nao hem bambae i kam stap klosap long yufala.” (Jemes 4:8) Hem i gat strong tingting blong ‘finis long olfala laef ya blong hem bifo, we hem i stap folem ol fasin blong hem nomo, nao hem i kam niufala man, we God i mekem hem i kam olsem hem,’ we ‘laef blong hem i folem trutok, mo i stret gud, i tabu, i blong God nomo.’—Efesas 4:22-24.
?Olsem wanem Rolf-Michael i save kam wan niufala man? Ol Witnes oli soem long Baebol se taem man i ‘savegud God,’ hem i save kam niuwan bakegen. Jeova God nao bambae ‘i mekem laef blong hem i kam niuwan bakegen, blong mekem hem i kam moa olsem hem.’—Kolosi 3:9-11.
Taem Rolf-Michael i stap kasem stret save long Baebol, hem i traehad blong mekem ol rul long Tok blong God oli wok long laef blong hem. (Jon 17:3) I no isi nating blong lego fasin blong tekem drag, be Rolf-Michael i luksave se prea long Jeova i impoten tumas, mo Jeova i givhan long hem. (1 Jon 5:14, 15) Samting we i givhan long hem bakegen, hemia fasin blong joen plante wetem olgeta we oli Witnes blong Jeova finis, we oli traehad blong mekem wil blong God.
Mo tu, save ya we i givhan bigwan long Rolf-Michael hemia se wol ya i stap lus, be man we i stap mekem ol samting we God i wantem bambae i stap blong olwe. Save ya i halpem hem blong mekem gudfala jus.

Sipos yu kam waes, bambae mi glad we mi glad, mo sipos man i faerap long mi, bambae mi gat ansa blong givim long hem.” Wetem fasin tangkiu Rolf-Michael i talem se: “Vas ya i pruvum se Jeova i lavem ol man tumas, from we hem i givim janis long olgeta blong mekem hem i glad.”
