³ What can we do so as not to tire out in the ministry? Changing our approach or our introductions could help. Excellent suggestions are found in the Reasoning book. Have you tried them? A very brief but direct approach may capture the attention of more householders. Let people know you are personally interested in their welfare.

⁷ All of us need to endure in Jehovah’s service and not tire out in these difficult last days. Pray to Jehovah for strength. (Isa. 40:29-31) Ask him to help you endure, and keep a positive mental attitude. Remember, we are doing God’s work. He sees what we do in his service, and he does not forget. (Heb. 6:10) So let us not tire out! Rather, let us be “always having plenty to do in the work of the Lord,” relying on Jehovah to strengthen us for his ‘fine work.’​—1 Cor. 15:58; Gal. 6:9.
