“Be able both to encourage . . . and to reprove.”—Titus 1:9.
To be mature Christian, you need to learn some useful thing them. This thing them will help you to accept assignments in the congregation. It will also help you to get and keep job that will help you to take care of yourself or your family and to get good friendship with other people. For example, learn to read and write good-good. The Bible say that the man who can read the Bible every day and think on it good-good, will be happy and successful. (Ps. 1:1-3) When he read the Bible every day, he will know how Jehovah can think, and it will help him to apply what the Bible say. (Prov. 1:3, 4) Our brothers and sister them can ask for help from brother them who able to teach and give advice from the Bible. So if you can read and write good-good, you will be able to prepare talks and comments that will benefit other people and make their faith strong.

“The one who is in union with you is greater than the one who is in union with the world.”—1 John 4:4.
When you feel scary, think on what Jehovah will do in the future when Satan not there again. One demonstration on the 2014 regional convention program show one father talking with his family on how maybe we can change 2 Timothy 3:1-5 around if this scripture them was talking about how life will be in Paradise: “In the new world people will really be happy. Men will love other people, love spiritual things, be modest, humble, be praising God, children will obey their parents, people will be thankful, loyal, get strong love for their families, willing to agree, always talking good about other people, having self-control, mild, love to do good, trustworthy, reasonable, lowly in mind, love God business instead of enjoyment, always doing things that God like; and that people them like this you must be close to.” You can talk with your family or brothers and sisters about how life will be like in the new world? w24.01 6 ¶13-14

“I have approved you.”—Luke 3:22.
It can comfort us to know that Jehovah happy with all his people! The Bible say: “Jehovah takes pleasure in his people.” (Ps. 149:4) But sometime, some of them can really get discourage and start thinking, ‘I wonder Jehovah happy with me?’ Sometime, some of God faithful people in the Bible time use to feel that God not happy with them. (1 Sam. 1:6-10; Job 29:2, 4; Ps. 51:11) The Bible make it clear that imperfect people can make Jehovah happy. How? We must show that we get faith in Jesus Christ and get baptize. (John 3:16) When we do this one, we show that we na repent from our sins and we promise to do God will. (Acts 2:38; 3:19) Jehovah can really be happy when we do this thing them to get close friendship with him. So long we continue to do our best to live by our promise, Jehovah will be happy with us and he will take us to be his close friends.—Ps. 25:14. w24.03 26 ¶1-2
