Our Tuning Fork


A tuning fork is a true standard, unvaried by time, circumstance or environment. Being made of metal, it will give many years of trustworthy tuning. So whether tuning a piano indoors or tuning a guitar outside, it will provide accurate tuning. When multiple pieces in a band or orchestra all use the same tuning, then they will sound harmonious.

Jehovah is for us a true standard giver, unvarying in time (millenniums of ages), circumstance (regional customs), or environment (good or bad periods in our life). Those adjusted by it are harmonious with not only their creator (the tuning fork) but with each other (the orchestra).

A single musician may be an accomplished player but it is only by playing with a group of musicians that he can tell if he can cooperatively harmonize with others. Similarly, we may be a knowledgeable Christian but by attending meetings together with others of like faith, we learn to harmoniously work with Jehovah’s orchestra of fellow worshippers.
