Last night I received a CD in the mail. It was from a friend of mine from North Carolina. The CD had a talk on it given by a circuit overseer and it is called "Jehovah's Table". As many other talks, it's very good. I listened to it in my car this morning and got to hear all of it.
It was a talk about staying at Jehovah's table. But sometimes we may feel like we don't deserve to be there. When a brother or sister tells us how good we are doing, we may sometimes think, "If only you knew, you wouldn't be saying that". And that could make us feel worse. We may feel like someone who considered himself a dead dog. Because a dog was the worst thing anyone could be in ancient times. Now a dead dog? We may feel that way too, but Jehovah tells us and keeps on telling us to stay at his table. The brother gives it so well and is sort of known to make you shed a tear or two.
I will try to upload the talk tomorrow and post the link for download if anyone would like to hear it.
Only in Jehovah's organization...
can you go up to another brother or sister and address them as a "good-for-nothing slave", and not offend them. On the contrary, it may even draw you closer together! (Luke 17.10)
GOOO PLANET!
