 Mi stap tingting se bambae tufala i no save divos, papa i jes wantem stap hem wan smoltaem. Hem i lavem mama blong mi, ?from wanem bambae hem i lego hem? ?From wanem bambae hem i lego mi?

 I had blong mi tokbaot samting ya long ol narafala. Mi no wantem tingbaot nomo. Mi kros, be long taem ya mi no luksave. Biaen, mi stat blong wari mo mi no stap slipgud long naet.

 Be i gat sam samting we i givhan long mi. Eksampol, Ol Proveb 18:1 i givim woning ya se yumi no mas stap yumi wan nomo, so mi traem blong folem advaes ya.

 Tingbaot: ?Olsem wanem Baebol riding mo ol pablikesen we i stanap long Baebol i save givhan long yu long taem blong trabol?—Ol Sam 94:19.

 Taem mi gat 17 yia, mi luk we papa i pulum laswan win blong hem. Mi harem se hemia wan taem we i had moa long laef blong mi. Mi harem nogud tumas.

Oli givim kakae long mifala, oli kam long haos, mo oli stap klosap long mifala. Oli no mekem blong smoltaem, be blong longtaem. Taem mi luk samting ya, mi luksave se ol Witnes blong Jehova oli ol trufala Kristin.—Jon 13:35.

 Wan vas we i rili leftemap tingting blong mi, hemia long 2 Korin 4:17, 18 we i se: “Nomata se ol trabol ya we oli kasem yumi oli smol nomo, mo oli no save stap longtaem, be bambae oli mekem se yumi kasem wan glori we i bigwan tumas mo we i no save lus samtaem. Be blong mekem olsem, yumi no mas tingbaot ol samting we yumi save luk long ae blong yumi, be yumi tingbaot ol samting we yumi no save luk. From we ol samting we yumi save luk oli blong smoltaem nomo, be ol samting we yumi no save luk, oli no save lus samtaem.”

 Lashaf blong vas ya i rili tajem mi. Papa i safa long sot taem nomo, be laef we God i promes blong givim i blong olwe. Ded blong papa blong mi, i mekem se mi tingting gud long laef blong mi mo jenisim ol mak we mi wantem kasem.
