To do your will, O my God, I have delighted, and your law is within my inward parts. - PSALMS 40:8

Because we truly love Jehovah, we find the greatest delight in doing his will - much as did David, who composed the psalm quoted above. And we want to serve Jehovah forever. That prospect is not less precious just because we must wait a ittle longer than we may have expected. Above all, we "keep on the watch" because we eagerly anticipate what Jehovah's day will mean for the accomplishment of his purpose. (Matthew 24:42) Our earnest desire to please God moves us to apply the counsel of his Word and give his Kingdom first place in our life. (Matthew 6:33; 1John 5:3) Our keeping on the watch should influence the decisions we make and the way we live our life each day. Doing so should also make us ever alert to opportunities to preach the Kingdom good news to all who will listen.

Hmmmm, I think I better just say that I will continue to show Jehovah my love by doing his will the best I can. Stay on the Watch, you better believe it, and preach the good news to all who listen to the best of the spiritual ability that Jehovah has blessed me with.

If I say too much other, I will implode. :icon_rolleyes:

Sisterly love as we KEEP HOLD N ON TIGHT TO JEHOVAH'S WORD WHICH CONTAINS NO GOOBLY GOOK.

In all fairness though, the WT's comment on the text was totally focused toward Jehovah and doing his will, with no mention of the "channel" that gets you there.

Wouldn't it be nice if everything coming out of Bethel was written like this?

Thanks e&e
