You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart.—Matt. 22:37.

 

Some of Jehovah’s servants have a hard time adjusting to the limitations brought on by advancing age or poor health. If you are sometimes discouraged by a limitation, ask yourself, ‘What does Jehovah require of me?’ Your best—whatever that may be right now. Consider this scenario: A sister in her 80’s feels discouraged because she cannot do as much in the ministry as she did when she was in her 40’s. She thinks that even though she is giving her best, it is not pleasing to Jehovah. But is that really the case? Think about it. If this sister gave her best in her 40’s and she is still giving her best in her 80’s, she has never stopped giving her best. If we do our best, Jehovah will in effect say to us: “Well done!” (Compare Matthew 25:20-23.) We will find it easier to be joyful if we focus on what we can accomplish instead of on what we cannot do. w22.04 10 ¶2; 11 ¶4-6

Limitations can come in many forms and in different degrees. Still, in our heart we are saying to Jehovah: “How I do love your law! All day long it is my concern.” (Psalm 119:97) Jehovah knows those “thinking upon his name.” COMFORT comes to ALL who know that Jehovah finds pleasure, in the meditation of our heart.  🤗

Today's daily text made me think of Jonah . He found himself in the stomach of a whale . He was very limited to everything his best was to pray and he did that . Jehovah listens to him. Every little effort we put in, is our best to Jehovah and he really appreciates it
