Same with us, if we take away one thing from our spiritual life: prayer, study, meetings or ministry- everything else can get that bit harder, that bit less appealing.Īlso, where we are in the stream of time. What would happen if you bake a cake without eggs? Or without sugar? It would be very unappealing. Basic ingredients are butter, flour, sugar, and eggs. He gave an illustration that I really loved about our spiritual life being like the ingredients to make a cake. We just had ours last week and our last talk was ‘Stay Focussed on the Road to life’. just checked the public talk is are you marked for survival Our first talk is clothe yourself with love so hopefully we will have the same talks on the Sunday. Imagine if Daniel had compromised in view that apparently Jehovah was not listening his prayers! Yet Jehovah's solution was more wonderful than anything Daniel might have thought: he allowed Daniel to be thrown in the den, then closed the lions' mouth. And as he approached the den, he may have thought that Jehovah was not listening his prayers. Surely he was praying fervently not to be thrown there. He mentioned Daniel as he was being carried to the lion's den.


One beautiful point he mentioned is that often Jehovah finds solutions we would have never thought about. Do not try to find a solution by yourself, present your problem to Jehovah and trust in his solution. When faced with such problems, we must do the same as Ezekiah did: The same as Ezekiah received letters from Senacherib discouraging him from trusting Jehovah, we suffer pressures from the world to stop trusting in Jehovah too. It was titled "What will you do with Senacherib's letters?". But the one I really loved was the last, not sure if this is the same in every congregation or it's prepared by the CO. The public talk was about receiving the mark to survive. His first talk was beautiful, about clothing ourselves with love.
