[Jehovah] well knows how we are formed, remembering that we are dust.—Ps. 103:14.

The Bible provides many examples of the considerate way in which Jehovah deals with his servants. For instance, note the thoughtful way that God helped young Samuel to deliver a judgment message to High Priest Eli as recorded at 1 Samuel 3:1-18. Jehovah’s Law commanded children to respect the aged, especially a chieftain. (Ex. 22:28; Lev. 19:32) Can you imagine Samuel going up to Eli in the morning and boldly telling him God’s stinging judgment message? Of course not! Indeed, the account tells us that Samuel “was afraid to tell Eli of the vision.” However, God made clear to Eli that He was calling Samuel. As a result, Eli took charge of the situation and told Samuel to speak and not to hide “a single word.” Samuel obediently “told him everything,” and his words harmonized with an earlier message. (1 Sam. 2:27-36) The account involving Samuel and Eli shows us how considerate and wise Jehovah is.

Just watched this on our website...what an encouraging talk at a time when so many are anxious. Very calming.

It helps us to re-focus & look to the future.

plus I loved the artwork......

It was exactly what we needed at the right time! People have complely gone to the crazies here with everything wide open, rioting and looting! Sacred service is the center of our lives! We need to deal with our problems and follow instructions! Remembering that Jehovah cannot lie, all these things he has promised us, he will do!! Having hope as an anchor and believing in promises Jehovah has made will keep us anchored, will keep us stable and that is exactly what we need!

 

I love that picture and have looked at it many many times, imaging myself in that picture!! I never noticed the leopard laying so comfortable in the tree!!! How did I miss that one?

 

Talk was indeed faith strenghtening, to me!

Me neither, @Idella,  I have looked at that pix many times and missed the leopard!  Beautiful, peaceful sleep she is enjoying.  Ours soon to come.

To be honest, I did think he looked very tired.

 

I have to say it concerns me deeply to see the level of anxiety exhibited by our brothers and sisters about this virus, seems the fear-mongering in the media is hitting the brotherhood harder than the average person in the world. Unless I misunderstood him and he meant the entire situation around the virus, lockdowns, job losses, economic worries, no field service...
