GAIN STRENGTH FROM PRAYER AND STUDY - Conclusion

 Personal strength has strengthened Zhiming in unexpected ways. For example, while h was recovering from a major operation, a nurse told him that because of his low blood cell count, he would need a transfusion. The night before his operation, Zhiming read about a sister who had the same operation. Her red cell count had dropped even lower than his; yet, she did not accept a blood transfusion and was able to recover.  That experience strengthened Zhiming to remain faithful.

During a trial, do you ever feel too anxious to express yourself in prayer? Or do you feel too weak to study? Remember that Jehovah understands your situation perfectly. So even when you offer a simple prayer, you can be sure that he will give you exactly what you need. (Ephesians 3:20) If your physical or emotional pain makes it difficult for you to read and study, you might try listening to audio recordings of the Bible or Bible-based publications. You may also find it helpful to listen to one of our songs or to watch a video on jw.org.  By praying to Jehovah and by looking for the answer in the spiritual provisions that he makes available, you invite him to make you strong.
