Strengthen your hope. Psalm 62:5 says: "I wait patiently for God because my hope comes from him." Strong hope includes confident expectation-which is crucial if we have to endure this system longer than we imagined. We must be convinced that Jehovah's promises will become realities no matter how long we may have to wait for them. We can strengthen our hope by studying God's Word-the prophecies, the internal harmony, and the details Jehovah reveals about himself. (Psalm 1:2, 3) Also, we need to continue to "pray with holy spirit" to keep our good relationship with Jehovah while we wait for his promise of everlasting life to be fulfilled. -JUDE 20, 21.
Like King David, be confident that Jehovah watches over those waiting for Him and expresses His loyal love to them. (Psalm 33:18, 22) Keep waiting patiently for Jehovah by focusing on the positive things in your life, by praising him, by drawing encouragement from fellow Witnesses, and keeping your precious hope strong.
