[FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Thursday, June 20 [/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]At once abandoning the nets, they followed him.—Matt. 4:20.[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] What helped Peter, Andrew [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]James, and John take up the fulltime[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] ministry? Was it an emotional,[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]spur-of-the-moment decision?[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] Hardly! Over the previous[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] months, these men listened to Jesus,[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]saw him perform miracles,[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] observed his zeal for righteousness,[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] and witnessed the amazing[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]response to his preaching. As a[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] result, their faith in Jehovah and[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] their trust in him became stronger![/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif](Matt. 4:18-22)[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] How can we[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]imitate Jesus in helping our Bible[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] students to build their trust[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] in Jehovah? [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif][/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif](Prov. 3:5, 6)[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] When[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]teaching, we can highlight God’s[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] promise to bless us abundantly[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] if we put Kingdom interests[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]first. [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif](Mal. 3:10; Matt. 6:33) [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] Although[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] we can use various scriptures[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] to emphasize how Jehovah[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] provides for his people, not to be[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]overlooked is the effect of the example[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] we ourselves set. Sharing[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] experiences from our own life can[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]accomplish much in helping our[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] students develop reliance on Jehovah.[/FONT] [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif] w11 11/15 4:6, 7[/FONT]
