You search my thoughts, my inmost inclination, The words I speak, the ways I walk, you know them too. You saw when I was made in secret, My very bones not hidden from your sight. You saw my form; its parts were down in writing. I love the wonder of your ways and praise your might. Your knowledge, God, is wondrous, awe-inspiring; Of this my soul is very well-aware. If I should fear that darkness might enfold me, Your spirit, God, would find me, even there. Where could I hide from you, Jehovah, Or be concealed, be hidden from your face? Not in the Grave nor in the highest heaven, Not in the dark nor in the sea; there is no place. (See also Ps. 66:3; 94:19; Jer. 17:10.)

THE BIBLE TEACHES THAT GOD WILL DO AMAZING THINGS ON THE EARTH. People will no longer feel pain, grow old, or die.—Revelation 21:4 “The lame will leap like the deer.”—Isaiah 35:6 “The eyes of the blind will be opened.”—Isaiah 35:5 The dead will be brought back to life.—John 5:28, 29 No one will get sick.—Isaiah 33:24 Everyone on earth will have plenty to eat.—Psalm 72:16. The Bible does more than that. It tells us what we need to know in order to be truly happy and enjoy life right now. Think for a moment about the things that make you worry. These may include money or family matters, bad health, or the death of someone you love. The Bible can help you to cope with these problems, and it can comfort you by answering such questions as these: Why do we suffer? How can we cope with our problems? Can our family be happy? What happens to us when we die? Will we ever see our dead loved ones again? Why can we be confident that God will do everything that he has promised? Go to JW.Org to learn these answers.
