stone cold;
your love–lost
in a darkening world
growing more blood-thirty. More bold.
Learn to hate bad.
Love righteousness, justice.
Love Jah,
Jesus,
Your fellowman:
Gold,
precious.
Question:
“Where would I be if I did not have faith
That I would see Jehovah’s goodness in the land of the living?”
Ps. 27:13.
Goal:
“I will walk before Jehovah
in the land of the living.”
Ps. 116:9.
“He has redeemed my soul from going into the pit,
And my life will see the light.’
Indeed, God does all these things
Twice, three times, for a man,
To bring him back from the pit,
So that he may be enlightened with the light of life.”
Job 33:28-30.
“Look!
Instead of peace, I had great bitterness;
But in your fondness for me,
You preserved me from the pit of destruction.
You have thrown all my sins behind your back.”
Isa. 38:17.
“May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be pleasing to you, O Jehovah, my Rock and my Redeemer.”
Ps. 19:14.
Whether young or old, brothers and sisters who are discouraged or depressed or who face other trials need our attention, encouragement, and comfort. (Prov. 12:25; Col. 4:11) We give proof that we truly love our brothers when we show by words and deeds that we have deep concern for “those related to us in the faith.” (Gal. 6:10) The Bible foretold that “the last days” of this wicked system of things would be marked by a spirit of selfishness and greed. (2 Tim. 3:1, 2) As Christians, we must therefore work hard to grow in our love for God, for Bible truth, and for one another. True, we may at times have minor disagreements with fellow believers. However, what a blessing it is for all in the congregation when love motivates us to settle any differences in a loving manner! (Eph. 4:32; Col. 3:14) Therefore, may we continue to have intense love for Jehovah, his Word, and our brothers. w17.05 21 ¶17-18
