How can elders imitate Jesus? Experienced elders delegate responsibilities. (Philippians 2:19-22) For example, elders can involve young one in Kingdom Hall cleaning and maintenance. After delegating a task, they can express their confidence in those selected to carry it out by training them and then trusting them to do the work correctly. A new elder named Matthew says that he truly appreciates experienced elders who train him thoroughly to hand an assignment and then trust him to complete it. He says, "I have benefited when the viewed my mistakes as part of the learning process and then helped me to improve.
Jesus used his final 40 days on earth to encourage, teach, and train others. May we be determined to follow his example closely. (1 Peter 2:21) He will help us to do so. After all, he promised: "I am with you all the days until the conclusion of things." - MATTHEW 28:20.
