Bearing Others’ Burdens

Key Verse

“Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2).

Text — Galatians 6: 1-5

Message

There is a story of a man staggering beneath a heavy load of grains, who must somehow get the grains home to his family, but he is about to crumble beneath its weight. A brother saw his distress and rushed to his aid, lifting a part of the burden and thereby easing the weight on him.  In Greek, the word “bear” means to take up or to carry away. The word “burden” in Greek also means weight. In this context, we should take up and carry the weight of other people.

 One of the beautiful things about being a Christian is that, you are not alone. God connects you intentionally with other believing youths in order for you to strengthen and encourage one another. There are numerous youths faced with financial, family, academic, and health related burdens.  Jesus teaches us to help the needy around us. By so doing, you would be fulfilling the law of Christ and putting smiles in the faces of the needy. Pray for grace to be able to bear others’ burdens.

Quote
