Scripture for the Day! (with comments)
Where your treasure is, there your
heart will be also.—Matt. 6:21.
Job was careful about his behavior
with those of the opposite sex.
(Job 31:1) He knew that it was improper
to pay romantic attention to
any woman other than his wife. Today,
we live in a world that bombards
us with sexual temptation.
Like Job, will we refuse to pay improper
attention to anyone towhom
we are not married? Will we also refuse
to look at lewd or pornographic
images in any form? (Matt. 5:28)
If we exert such self-control daily,
we will strengthen ourselves to
keep our integrity. Job also obeyed
Jehovah in the way he viewed material
things. Job saw that if he
put his trust in his possessions, he
would commit a grave error deserving
of punishment. (Job 31:24, 25,
28) Today, we live in a very materialistic
world. If we develop a balanced
view of money and possessions,
as the Bible admonishes us
to do, we will strengthen our determination
to keep our integrity.
—Prov. 30:8, 9; Matt. 6:19, 20. w19.02
6 ˚13-14

Jesus said, "If you love me, you will keep my commandments".

1 Timothy 6:12 KJV

Do you see the difference in the interpretation by differing versions. The RSV says that you were called 'when' you 'made the good confession'. The KJV says you 'are' called (present tense) 'and' (conjunction) professed a good profession. The RSV ties your calling to the point at which you confess. The KJV does not, opening the door for predestination. Romans 8:29-30 KJV

Your calling was from before time was. Notice in verse 30 he spells it out.

The point at which you acknowledge your calling is another matter.

Galatians 3:20-24 KJV

Proverbs 19:8-11
[8]To acquire wisdom is to love yourself;
    people who cherish understanding will prosper.
[9]A false witness will not go unpunished,
    and a liar will be destroyed.
[10]It isn’t right for a fool to live in luxury
    or for a slave to rule over princes!
[11]Sensible people control their temper;
    they earn respect by overlooking wrongs.

Sunday, March 8
You will know the truth, and
the truth will set you free.
—John 8:32.
That freedom includes freedom
from false religion, ignorance, and
superstition. And it involves more.
It will ultimately include “the glorious
freedom of the children of
God.” (Rom. 8:21) Taste that freedom
even now by ‘remaining in
Christ’s word,’ or teachings. (John
8:31) In this way, you will come to
“know the truth” not just by learning
about it but also by living it. In this
old system, even a so-called good
life is at best uncertain and short.
We do not know what tomorrow
will bring. (Jas. 4:13, 14) The wise
course, then, is to stay on the path
that leads to “the real life”—everlasting
life. (1 Tim. 6:19) Of course,
God does not force us to walk that
path. The choice is ours. Make Jehovah
your “portion.” (Ps. 16:5)
Cherish the many “good things” he
has given you. (Ps. 103:5) And have
faith that he can give you “abundant
joy” and “happiness . . . forever.”
—Ps. 16:11. w18.12 28 ˚19, 21

Count your blessings and be content in whatever state you find yourself.
