    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Sunday, May 26

    [/FONT]
    ​
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am mild tempered[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] and lowly in heart,[/FONT]
    ​
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]and you will find refreshment for[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] your souls. —Matt. 11:29.[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]
    As Christians, we have been    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] comforted by learning about Jesus[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] Christ and by walking in his[/FONT]
    ​
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]footsteps. Learning about Jesus’[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] upbuilding way of treating people[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] and then following his positive[/FONT]
    ​
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]example is in itself a great help in[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] relieving the stress that we may[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] experience.

    We can also be comforted    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] by fellow Christians. For[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] example, consider how the elders[/FONT]
    ​
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]in the congregation help those[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] facing distressing situations.

    The    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] disciple James wrote:[/FONT]    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] “Is there anyone [spiritually] sick among[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] you? Let him call the older men of[/FONT]
    ​
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]the congregation to him, and let them pray over him.â€￾[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]

    With what    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] result?
    [/FONT]     [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]
    “The prayer of faith will make the indisposed one well,    [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] and Jehovah will raise him up.[/FONT]
    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Also, if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him.â€￾ (Jas. 5:14, 15) [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]

    Other members of the congregation    [/FONT]    [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] can provide comfort as[/FONT] well.

    Worshipping Jehovah doesn't need to be a complicated matter. At Matthew 22:37-39 Jesus said: " 'You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.' This is the greatest and first commandment. The second, like it, is this, 'You must love your neighbour as yourself.' "
