Missed the talk
June 30, 2013
I am so bummed, I missed the talk...i would have missed much of it anyways because I've been running to the bathroom over and over again, but... I got disconnected and the only cell phone number i have for my mom, is the phone she gave to her sister the other day. I tried calling her but because she was hooked up to the meeting she didn't pick up. I hoped she would try to call me back but she didn't.
So I waited awhile and called her again and she called me back, but i ended up missing the whole talk. :'( But at least I am able to listen to the WT lesson.
It is the last study lesson in the April 15th WT. "Do Not Tire Out" Gal. 6:9 "Let us not give up in doing what is fine."
This lesson talks about the provisions that help us maintain our zeal and the importance of taking advantage of the abundance of spiritual food.
There are five areas of activity that can help us:

This lesson talks about the provisions that help us maintain our zeal and the importance of taking advantage of the abundance of spiritual food.
There are five areas of activity that can help us:
- Meeting for encouragement and worship
- Searching for the honesthearted
- Partaking of spiritual provisions
- supporting the organizational arrangements
- Living in harmony with our message
The main reason for our meetings is to give worship to Jehovah and praise him! He undoubtedly deserves our regular worship through our attendance and participation in the meetings. (it is too easy to forget the reason for going is to worship)
Some of the benefits in attending is the help it gives us to preach, to cope with opposition and the strength it gives us to endure.
Why we search for the honesthearted is because it helps us keep in step with Jehovah's org. Jesus set this work in motion and it has been the main focus for Jehovah's ENTIRE org and even the angles support us in the work.
We want to partake of Jehovah's spiritual provisions because it gives us strength as Jehovah instructs and guides us.
The Earthly part of Jehovah's org includes:
NEVER TAKE WHAT WE HAVE FOR GRANTED.
WORK TOGETHER AS A FAMILY TO BE REGULAR IN MEETING FOR WORSHIP.
CHERISH THE REGULAR PROVISIONS OF SPIRITUAL FOOD WE RECEIVE.
SUPPORT THOSE TAKING THE LEAD
LIVE IN HARMONY WITH THE MESSAGE WE BEAR.

The Earthly part of Jehovah's org includes:
- The Governing Body
- Branch Committees
- Traveling overseers
- Bodies of elders
- Congregations'
- Individual publishers
We also want to support Christ's anointed brothers who are still on earth that are overseeing the org arrangements. We do this by:
- being in subjection to those taking the lead
- our respectful comments about the elders
- encouraging our children to also be respectful of these faithful men and to look to them for scriptural advice
- as a family using our finances to support the world wide work
- having the right view of sharing in the upkeep of the Kingdom Hall
In these ways Jehovah's Holy Spirit can flow freely for us.
Because of our imperfect flesh and the efforts of Satan and his wicked world. When it gets the better of us, it is critical that we get help A.S.A.P. If we were to put it off, it would be damaging to us... like a deep cut, if you don't get to the doctor right away, you WILL develop infection, and it could even cost us our life. The ONLY way to save ourselves from serious sin is to get help right away.
