The scene of this world is changing.—1 Cor. 7:31.

 

Jehovah guides us on the road to life by means of the earthly part of his organization. No doubt, we readily follow the Bible-based direction we receive regarding doctrinal or moral matters. But how do we react when God’s organization makes a change that affects other aspects of our life, such as selling the Kingdom Hall we attend? We will maintain our joy if we remember that we are working for Jehovah and that he is directing his organization. (Col. 3:23, 24) King David set a good example when donating funds to build the temple. He said: “Who am I and who are my people that we should be in a position to make voluntary offerings like this? For everything is from you, and we have given to you what comes from your own hand.” (1 Chron. 29:14) When we donate funds, we too are giving to Jehovah what has come from his own hand. Even so, Jehovah appreciates the time, energy, and resources that we donate to support the work he wants done.—2 Cor. 9:7. w20.11 22-23 ¶14-16

If you would like to review some nice information that speaks about this part of our daily text, take a listen to br. Patrick LaFranca's Gilead talk: Who Am I, O Jehovah God?

This is one of my favorite Gilead talks.

 Thanks Br. Isaac for your recommendation. The transcript is cited below. Page 25/46

They seemed to forget who they were —creatures made of dust. So we all have to fight against prideful tendencies. Humility is elusive. As soon as we think we are humble, we’ve lost it. However, Jehovah gives us help.

I really enjoyed this DT.  I was reminded again of how blessed I am to have found Jehovah's earthly organization to be guided by and have fellow humans who worship the one true GOD Jehovah.  I count each meeting to be an amazing opportunity to learn more and I feel so blessed.  Its like a free ivy league spiritual education that gives life and saves lives.  ❤️  

Hallelujah (Thank You Jehovah ) We love You Father Jehovah! ❤️
