Da elda wen tell um dat he doing real good, an den wen give him advice about how fo do even moa. Like maybe he can come early to da meetings fo tell da braddahs an sistahs howzit, he can comment moa, go service ery week wit his group, an look fo odda good ways fo help dem. Wen Jordan wen lissen an do all dis, he had learn plenny new tings. But not ony dat, his love fo his braddahs an sistahs wen come moa strong. He learn dat wen one braddah come one helpa guy fo da local hui, dass not wen you start fo help odda peopo, you awready stay helping peopo an going keep on helping dem.​—1 Tim 3:8-10, 13.

Da moa I wen love Jehovah, da moa I wen love peopo too. I wen try tink wat kine pilikia dey was going thru an wat dey wanted fo talk about. Da moa I wen tink about dem, da moa I wanted fo help dem.”​—Rome 10:13-15.

GOOD TINGS WE GET WEN WE SHOW LOVE TO ODDAS

One small ting you do outa love can be good fo plenny peopo (Go look numbas 15-16)

15-16. Jalike we see in da pichas, wat good tings happen wen we show love to oddas?

15 Wen we show love fo oua braddahs, is good fo oddas too. Afta COVID-19 wen start one braddah name Paolo an his wife wen help plenny of da olda sistahs learn how fo preach using dea phones, tablets, o computas. One sistah who had hard time fo use her electronics was finally able fo do um. She wen use um fo invite her ohana to da Meeting Fo Rememba Wen Jesus Had Mahke, an sixty of dem wen log in fo join um! Wat Paolo an his wife wen do not ony was good fo dis sistah, but was good fo her ohana too. Layta, da sistah had write Paolo, “Mahalo fo teaching us kupunas. I neva going foget how much Jehovah kea about us an how hard you wen work fo help us.”

16 Tings lidis wen teach Paolo someting supa importan. It was one good reminda dat you can have skills an know plenny stuff, but love is moa importan den all dat. He wen say, “I used to be one circuit ovaseah, but I wen see dat even if not all da braddahs an sistahs wen rememba my talks, dey still rememba all da stuff I wen do fo help dem.”

17. Wen we show love, who else is good fo?

17 Wen we show love fo odda peopo, can be good fo us in ways we no even expeck. Jonathan who live New Zealand is proof of dat. One Saturday aftanoon wen was real hot, he wen see on pionea braddah preaching on da road by himself. Jonathan wen go work wit da pionea braddah on da Saturday aftanoons afta dat. He wen tink he was jus helping his braddah out, but neva know was going be good fo him too. Jonathan wen say, “Dat time in my life I neva love field service. But I wen see how da braddah wen teach an da good tings dat wen happen in field service, dass wen I wen start fo love doing um. On top of dat I wen get one good fren who wen help me fo grow up spiritually, fo have good fun in field service, an fo come moa close to Jehovah.”

18. Wat Jehovah like us do?

18 Jehovah like all us grow in oua love fo him an odda peopo. We wen learn dat we can make oua love fo Jehovah moa strong if we read da Bible, tink hard about um, an pray to him all da time. Oua love fo oua braddahs an sistahs can grow if we do tings fo help dem. Wen oua love come stronga, we going come moa close to Jehovah an to oua spiritual ohana. An we going be good frenz wit dem foeva!
