8. Take Steps to Fix Your Mistakes
(15 min.) Discussion.
No matter how hard we try, we all make mistakes. (1Jo 1:8) When we do, we should never let embarrassment or fear of getting into trouble prevent us from turning to Jehovah for forgiveness and help. (1Jo 1:9) Turning to Jehovah is always the first step in fixing a mistake.
Read Psalm 51:1, 2, 17. Then ask the audience:
How can David’s words motivate us to turn to Jehovah for help if we make a serious mistake?
