Did you get the boxes you were looking for for your daughter\u2019s move?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u02 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, the store saved a few for me. Now I have to decide what she\u2019s taking and what she\u2019s leaving. She says she doesn\u2019t need much, but we already have six boxes.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u03 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Once you start putting things away, you always find something else. Is she leaving this weekend after all?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u04 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, on Saturday. She\u2019s thrilled about the new job. I\u2019m happy for her too, but she\u2019s never lived this far away. I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll be watching the phone.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u05 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course. You\u2019re happy for her, but at the same time you\u2019re worried about having her so far away. Last time you mentioned that you sometimes pray for your children, but you weren\u2019t sure whether God listens to those concerns.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u06 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That\u2019s right. With everything happening in the world, my concerns seem insignificant. Besides, I almost always end up asking for the same thing\u2014that they be safe and that nothing happen to them.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u07 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Is what makes you doubt it the thought that your concerns aren\u2019t important enough to tell God about?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u08 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, and I don\u2019t know how to express myself as well as other people. I hear them pray, and it seems they find the words right away. I get stuck or become distracted thinking about what I still have to do.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u09 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> There\u2019s a passage that addresses that concern very well. It helps us see what kind of prayer God invites us to offer. Would you like me to read it?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u10 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, please read it. I\u2019d like to know whether I need to learn a particular prayer.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u11 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Notice that it speaks about expressing what is in our heart, not about memorizing certain words. Listen to what Psalm 62:8 says.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u12 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Psalms 62:8 \u2014 Trust in him at all times, O people. Pour out your hearts before him. God is a refuge for us. (Selah) That invitation to pour out our heart shows that God wants us to pray to him sincerely. You can tell him how you feel about your daughter\u2019s leaving, even if it is difficult for you to find the words.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u14 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> But I wouldn\u2019t expect everything to go well for my daughter just because I asked for it. That doesn\u2019t always happen.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u15 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> You\u2019re right. This passage doesn\u2019t promise that everything will turn out the way we ask. It invites us to trust in God and seek refuge in him. We can tell him our worries and ask him to help us cope with them.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u16 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Seen that way, I shouldn\u2019t ask only that nothing happen to her. I could also tell him how hard it is for me to accept that she is now living her own life.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u17 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Yes, that is also part of what is in your heart. You can be happy for her and at the same time explain your fears to God. You don\u2019t need to hide them or prepare a speech.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u18 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I\u2019ll keep thinking about that. But I\u2019m busy now; I have to finish these boxes before my daughter arrives.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u19 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course, I\u2019ll let you get back to it. What day and time would work well for us to talk again?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u20 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Tuesday, after six. Six-thirty would be fine.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u21 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Then Tuesday at six-thirty. I\u2019ll write it down. I hope the move goes well, Teresa.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Would that time work even if you still have moving tasks to finish? We could make it a brief visit, so you wouldn\u2019t have to set aside the whole afternoon.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, I can make that time. What worries me is committing to a long conversation. My daughter will probably call to tell me how things are going.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I understand. We can leave just one question for that day: How does the Bible teach us to pray? We\u2019ll consider one piece of advice and how to put it into practice. And if your daughter calls, I\u2019ll let you take the call.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-4 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That sounds good. I\u2019m interested in learning, but I\u2019d rather take it slowly. One question at a time works for me.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-smm_01_u22 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> See you Tuesday.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-teachers-section\">Following Up<\/h2><div class=\"ctj-teachers-assignment-card\" style=\"margin:1rem 0 1.4rem;padding:1rem 1.15rem;border:1px solid #d6e2ef;border-left:4px solid #b07816;border-radius:10px;background:#f8fafc\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 .45rem\"><strong>Assignment details<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"margin:0;line-height:1.65\"><strong>Assignment:<\/strong> Following Up<br><strong>Duration:<\/strong> 4 min<br><strong>Lesson and point:<\/strong> Lesson 8 \u00b7 Patience \u00b7 point 3<br><strong>Teaching objective:<\/strong> Try something different.

I thought you would have to replace the whole sole.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u002 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> No, it was only coming loose at the front. The rest is still holding up. If you take care of them, you\u2019ll have boots for quite a while.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u003 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I\u2019m glad, because they\u2019re the most comfortable ones I have. Were you able to finish all your orders? The other day the counter was full and we could hardly talk.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u004 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Yes, although I took some work home. And about that Bible course you mentioned, I\u2019d rather tell you no. I don\u2019t want to start something and then leave it unfinished.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u005 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That\u2019s fine; you don\u2019t have to commit to anything. Thanks for telling me. By the way, should I pay you now, or would you rather I wait until you finish with that shoe?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u006 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Now is fine; the glue has to dry. These are the only quiet minutes of the morning. Earlier a customer came in angry because his shoes weren\u2019t ready. But we had agreed on tomorrow, not today.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u007 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I see, and you had organized the work based on that deadline. Were you able to clarify it with him?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u008 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I showed him the date on the receipt. He lowered his voice a little, but he left complaining. I wasn\u2019t very kind either, to be honest. When someone comes at me like that, it\u2019s hard not to respond the same way.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u009 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I also find it difficult when I feel that I\u2019m being treated unfairly. One thing I value about Jesus is his advice on how to treat others. We don\u2019t need a long conversation to learn one of his teachings.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u010 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> But won\u2019t we end up talking again about my taking the course?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u011 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> No, don\u2019t worry. You said you don\u2019t want to, and I respect that. I was thinking of showing you just one idea from this section about Jesus in the brochure A Labor of Love. We can look at it here and leave it at that.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u012 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> One idea is fine. I\u2019d like to know what it has to do with what happened to me, because problems at the counter don\u2019t always have a neat solution.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u013 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course, we can\u2019t make a customer change his attitude. This section explains that Jesus was a great teacher and that his advice always works. One of his teachings helps us decide how to respond, even when the other person does not cooperate. Notice what he taught at Matthew 7:12; I\u2019ll read it to you. This passage is very appropriate. Would you like to read Matthew 7:12?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-dialogue-scripture ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u014 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Matthew 7:12 \u2014 \u201cAll things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must do to them. This, in fact, is what the Law and the Prophets mean. I\u2019m struck by the fact that Jesus invites us to think about how we would like to be treated, not simply about how we have just been treated. That helps me not to respond impulsively.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u016 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I understand the idea. But if I give in every time someone complains, I\u2019ll end up making customers who respect the deadlines wait.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u017 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> And they also deserve consideration. Applying that advice doesn\u2019t mean you have to move his order ahead. You can keep the agreed date and explain it without humiliating him. If you had confused the day, how would you prefer someone to tell you?<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u018 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Certainly not in front of everyone as if I couldn\u2019t read. I suppose it would be enough to show me the paper and tell me when I could pick them up.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u019 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That would be a specific way to apply the advice: clarify the mistake as you would want it clarified to you. The work would still be ready tomorrow, but you wouldn\u2019t add an insult to the misunderstanding.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u020 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That may be true. Although some people get angry no matter how carefully you act. You don\u2019t always come out ahead by being kind.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u021 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> That\u2019s true. The advice doesn\u2019t guarantee that the other person will respond well. But it does guide you to treat him considerately. Its usefulness does not depend on everyone agreeing with you.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u022 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> I understand it better that way. It\u2019s not about changing the customer, but about taking care of what I do. I can try that, although I\u2019ll have to remember it before I open my mouth.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u023 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> I have the same problem. If you ever become curious about the course, we can watch a video showing what it is like. But you don\u2019t have to decide anything now.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u024 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> For now I\u2019d rather keep this thought. Write down where that statement is so I can look it up in the Bible I have at home.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Of course. And when you read it at home, you can also think about your next encounter with that customer. Even though this morning did not go well, tomorrow you\u2019ll have another opportunity to treat him as you would like to be treated.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> Do you mean apologizing to him? That would be difficult, because it might seem that I\u2019m admitting he was right about the date.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> You can apologize for your tone without changing what was agreed. For example: \u201cI\u2019m sorry I answered you that way yesterday. I should have explained it more calmly.\u201d That way you acknowledge your part, not a mistake you didn\u2019t make.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm-length-repair-1-1-4 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Householder:<\/strong> That\u2019s different. I can admit that I answered badly without arguing about the date again. I\u2019ll think about that when I read the advice.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-smm_02_u025 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Right, Matthew 7:12.

The picture places us in a doctor\u2019s waiting room, where an older man is reading an article about war. The objective is to show sincere interest by listening. We will review A Labor of Love, lesson 1, point 5, and consider James 1:19 and Matthew 7:12.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p02 wp-block-paragraph\">Point 5 reminds us: \u201cListen. Do not do all the talking. Give the person an opportunity to express himself. When appropriate, ask questions.\u201d This guidance affects both how we begin and what we do afterward. A good opening statement accomplishes little if we immediately take over the conversation and leave no room to get to know the person.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p03 wp-block-paragraph\">First, let us think about our willingness to listen. We may see an opportunity to talk about the Bible and focus on what we want to say. But we need to pay attention to what the other person wants to express. To remember what should come first, let us listen to the advice found at James 1:19.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_b01 ctj-bible-bible_079 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>James 1:19<\/strong> \u2014 <em>Know this, my beloved brothers: Everyone must be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger,<\/em><br><br> This advice encourages us not to be quick to respond. Applied to the picture, it means that we do not have to explain everything we know about wars right away. First we need to find out whether the man wants to talk and what aspect of the subject interests him. Listening can completely change the direction we had planned for the conversation.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p05 wp-block-paragraph\">Let us observe the picture without adding details we do not know. We see a man reading about war; we do not know what he thinks, how he feels, or whether he has relatives who have been affected. We also do not know whether he wants to continue reading quietly. So it would be best to avoid personal questions or comments that assume emotions he has not yet expressed.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p06 wp-block-paragraph\">According to what we see in the picture, what could you say to start a conversation? One possibility, if he looks up and seems willing to talk, would be to comment: \u201cIt is difficult to read news about war. You think about the people who are going through that.\u201d It is a brief observation related to what he is reading, and it does not demand a response.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p07 wp-block-paragraph\">After that comment, the important thing would be to stop and listen. If he answers briefly and returns to the newspaper, there is no need to ask another question to hold his attention. We can let him read peacefully. Applying the lesson is not measured by how much we manage to say, but by the sincere interest we show, even when the conversation does not continue.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p08 wp-block-paragraph\">If he decides to converse, he might mention the suffering of families or say that he finds it difficult to understand how some people can treat others that way. In that case, we could first acknowledge that concern: \u201cYes, it hurts to think about families who are suffering.\u201d We would not be pretending to agree with a political opinion; we would be acknowledging a human concern that we can sincerely share.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p09 wp-block-paragraph\">He may express a strongly held political position. We would not need to debate it or approve it in order to maintain a pleasant conversation. We could focus on the suffering he mentions and listen without turning the encounter into a debate. Nor would it be appropriate to use a pause to recite a prepared explanation that does not respond to what he has just said.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p10 wp-block-paragraph\">What text would you show? If the conversation centers on how we treat one another, one option would be Matthew 7:12. This text allows us to share a simple principle related to that concern without entering into political controversies. We would not present it as an explanation of all the causes of war, because that is not the subject it develops.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p11 wp-block-paragraph\">To connect with what the man has said, we could mention that his words make us think of advice from Jesus about treating others and ask whether he would like to know it. We would continue only if he shows a willingness to listen. Let us read that advice ourselves to see how it fits the conversation: Matthew 7:12.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_b02 ctj-bible-bible_038 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Matthew 7:12<\/strong> \u2014 <em>\u201cAll things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must do to them. This, in fact, is what the Law and the Prophets mean.<\/em><br><br> The principle invites us to think about the treatment we want to receive and to act that way toward others. After showing it, one related question would be enough, such as: \u201cWhat would change if more people treated others that way?\u201d Then we would listen to his answer without assuming that he necessarily agrees with us.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p13 wp-block-paragraph\">He may consider it good advice but unrealistic. We could acknowledge that we cannot force others to follow it. Even so, the principle can guide our own decisions. For example, when we disagree with someone, we can treat him with the same respect we want to receive. That explanation answers the difficulty raised without minimizing its importance.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p14 wp-block-paragraph\">If he does not want to talk about the Bible, we would respect his decision. If he is called in for his appointment, we would end with a kind farewell, without trying to add one last explanation. Thus, the approach is natural because it arises from a visible situation; respectful because it does not presume feelings or force the conversation; and adaptable because what we say next will depend on what he expresses.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-part-s3 ctj-unit-s01_p15 wp-block-paragraph\">The key is not to memorize a perfect introduction. It is to observe, say something appropriate, and leave room to listen. In this scene, the newspaper can open a conversation, but the man\u2019s response will help us decide how to continue. Showing sincere interest includes knowing when to ask, when to share a text, and when to remain silent.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assignments and examples for Apply Yourself
