Brother Tim, I write the Wednesday scriptural thought each week and share it with a select group of friends worldwide. When I read your post, I thought of this one from a few weeks back. For reference, the congregation of brothers and sisters is my family, and I call them that. I hope you find it helpful:
Good morning family!!! I hope you're enduring with joy as this system takes its last breaths. Have you ever felt unnoticed, unloved, or wondered if what you’re doing really matters? In Haggai 2:7, Jehovah says the precious things of all the nations will come in. This reminds us that to Jehovah, each of his servants is like a treasured jewel, so valued that he lovingly calls them his “precious things.” Think about that for a moment. Jehovah, who created the entire universe, considers you precious. He knows the trials you face and the sacrifices you make to keep serving Him. Your prayers, your acts of kindness, and your efforts to stay spiritually strong—even on hard days—are deeply valued by him. Just as a jeweler takes time and care to polish each stone, Jehovah sees the potential in each of us and cherishes who we are becoming under his guidance. When life tries to convince you that your work goes unseen or unappreciated, remember this promise. You’re not just one of millions, Jehovah has selected you personally to be part of his people, and he delights in you. Every time you show love, uphold your faith, or keep your integrity, it’s like you’re shining a little brighter in his eyes. Family, please don’t let anything shake your confidence in your value. Jehovah doesn’t just tolerate you; he treasures you. Stay close to Him, and he’ll help you see yourself the way He sees you: cherished, chosen, and deeply loved. I love you and hope you all have a wonderful day!!! ❤️🤗🦋🥰🌸🐨
