Basic passive voice

In 2023, I was partnered with Yixing to do text based duties.

Yixing's work capability is better than mine and she's also more efficient.

The second conditional

Normally, if I had any kind of state, she would fellowship God's words to help me.

In February 2024, during gathering, Yixing incorporated the words of God to understand her own arrogant disposition, but

After she finished, Lan Xing pointed out some of Yixing's arrogant and constraining behavior when doing her duty.

She said that normally when Yixing pointed out her problems, Yixing's tone contained some disdain, which constrained her a lot, and

there were times when she felt that her caliber was poor and she wasn't good enough for the duty.

Yixing told her disdainfully to resign if she couldn't do it, which made her very negative.

While Lan Xing talked, Yixing's face slowly sank.

When Lan Xing finished her fellowship, Ye Xing cried, saying that she had constrained others and done evil and her mood was low.

I thought that Y Xing had not fully accepted the problems that Lan Sheng had pointed out, but

then I also thought that Yi Xing attached great weight to face, and

so it was normal that she wouldn't be able to accept it straight away when Lan Sheng pointed at her problems.

She should be a bit better after a while, and so I didn't say anything more.

While eating, Lan Xing sought out Y Xing several times for a chat, but Yu Xing ignored her.

Yu Xing and I worked in the same office together, and

after lunch, Lan Xing came to our office to help me with the computer.

Yu Xing then went outside as if she was deliberately avoiding Lan Xing.

Previously, she and Lan Xing had often chatted and laughed together, but

now it was as if she was a different person.

I realized that Yi Xing was prejudiced to word Lanxing.

I wanted to ask about her state and point out that her attitude was one of not accepting the truth and would make people feel constrained.

Lan Xing pointed at her problems just then, but she hasn't adjusted her state yet.

If I go and criticize her now, will she just get even more negative?

If she has a bad opinion of me later and ignores me, what will I do?

We share an office and see each other every time we turn our heads.

If our relationship gets plunged into a deep freeze, then it's going to be so difficult to get along in the future.

Later, if I have any state or encounter any problems in my work.

When I thought this, I swallowed the words I had been about to say.

However, I could clearly see that Yi Xing's state was not good and felt self reproachful for not fellowshiping about it.

I then plucked up the courage to ask, it looks like your state is not so good.

Because the problems that Lan Xing pointed out are hard to accept straight away.

If you have any thoughts, you can open up and fellowship about them.

I'm digesting it, and then said nothing more.

Seeing that she didn't want to open up and fellowship about it, I didn't know what to say.

All of a sudden, I was worried that if I said anything more, it would provoke antipathy toward me and she would have a bad opinion of me.

Therefore, I just spoke a few words of encouragement and ended the conversation hastily.

Afterward, Yu Xing buried her head in eating and working for two days on end.

She basically didn't speak at all except when we asked her about something, and

Previously, whenever there were any problems I couldn't see through in our work, Yu Xing would proactively express her opinions and provide a few suggestions.

If there were any parts of my work letters where my fellowship was unclear, she would help me make them better.

However, during these two days, Yixing wouldn't even fellowship about the problems we encountered in our work.

I wanted to bring them up and discuss them, but

when I saw that Yi Xing wasn't in a good mood, I thought that it would be hard to achieve any results by discussing the work, and

Afterward, I wanted to expose Yi Sheng's behavior so she could become aware of her problems.

But then I thought that Lan Xing had only mentioned her arrogant disposition briefly, and

Yixing's state had become this bad as a result.

If I mention again that she doesn't accept the truth, then won't she become prejudiced toward me and do her duty with a barrier in her heart?

How difficult would it be for us to get along then?

Therefore, I said to Yixing tactfully, if you have any thoughts, you can talk about them.

If you carry on never saying anything like this, you will constrain people.

God set up this kind of environment to allow us to reflect on our own corrupt dispositions.

It is beneficial for our life entry, she said in a low voice.

If I say less in the future, I won't make people feel constrained.

When I saw that Yi Xing was talking like she was still in a huff, I hesitated again.

If I point out her problems and she doesn't accept them, then will she ignore me as well?

Let's wait until she's willing to open up and fellowship at that time.

Later, when we discussed the work together, Yixing still didn't say much.

Lan Xing saw how Yu Xing was being and didn't know quite what to do.

She felt that it was her fault and felt very self reproachful.

Those two days, all I could think about was this matter.

I couldn't even get my heart to calm down when doing my duty.

I prayed to God to tell him about my state that he may lead me to understand myself.

Later I read these words of God Almighty.

God says most people wish to pursue and practice the truth, but

much of the time they merely have a resolution and the desire to do so.

As a result, when they come across evil forces or encounter evil people and bad people committing evil deeds, or false leaders and antichrists doing things in a way that violates principles, thus disturbing the work of the Church and harming God's chosen ones, they lose the courage to stand up and speak out.

What does it mean when you have no courage?

Does it mean that you are timid or inarticulate?

Or is it that you do not understand thoroughly and therefore do not have the confidence to speak up?

This is primarily the consequence of being restrained by corrupt dispositions.

One of the corrupt dispositions you reveal is a deceitful disposition.

When something happens to you, the first thing you think of is your own interests.

The first thing you consider is the consequences, whether this will be beneficial to you.

This is a deceitful disposition, is it not?

Another is a selfish and base disposition.

You think, what does a loss to the interests of God's house have to do with me?

Such thoughts and words are not something that you consciously think, but
