Sunday, April 30

Man has dominated man to his harm.—Eccl. 8:9.

 

Today many find it hard to trust anyone in authority. They have observed that the legal and the political systems tend to favor the wealthy and the powerful and to deny justice to the poor. In addition, the conduct of certain religious leaders leaves much to be desired, which has caused some people to lose confidence in God. So when a person agrees to study the Bible with us, we face the challenge of helping him to build trust in Jehovah and trust in His earthly representatives. Of course, Bible students are not the only ones who need to learn to trust in Jehovah and to trust in his organization. Even those of us who have been in the truth for many years must never lose sight of the fact that Jehovah’s way of doing things is always best. At times, situations arise that may test our confidence in that regard. w22.02 2 ¶1-2

The point "Even those of us who have been in the truth for many years must never lose sight of the fact that Jehovah’s way of doing things is always best. At times, situations arise that may test our confidence in that regard" is so touching and Wonderful to continue working on with a positive attitude.

When we look at the political, legal and religious system we definitely see the truth of the Scripture. And the harm that's felt by others is not only physical but emotional. It's such a privilege not only to serve our just and merciful God, but to reveal him to those who have not come to know him.
