Friday, June 13 No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him.—John 6:44. When you began associating with the Christian congregation, you did not join some sort of social club. Rather, you came into the congregation because Jehovah drew you. What moved him to do so? Did he see a righteous, God-fearing person? “Not at all!” you may say. What, then, did God see? He saw a heart that would be receptive to his liberating law, a heart that would submit to his kind influence. Within the congregation, Jehovah has nurtured your heart by feeding you spiritually, setting you free from religious falsehoods and superstitions, and by teaching you how to develop the Christlike personality. (Eph. 4:22-24) As a result, you have the privilege of being among the only people in the world who can rightly be called “a free people.” (Jas. 2:12) The freedom that you enjoy now among God’s people is just a foretaste of the freedom that lies ahead. w12 7/15 1:15, 16 jw.org English
