Galatians 6:
2
Carry each
other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of
Christ.
The Bible suggests,
that we in the church, should actually help one
another.
I wonder how
different our churches might be, if we had people come next to us, and walk with
us?
If we’re about to
stumble, how comforting it would be, to have another brother or sister, be on
the watch with us, for a misstep.
In this daily walk
of faith, any of us are prone to a trip, once in a
while.
Church people often
get offended, when another person of the faith, offers gentle, subtle,
correction.
We’re actually
supposed to be grateful, for the one who helps us along the
way.
The actual
translation to the words… “Carry each other’s
burdens…”, is, “if you see one
about to stumble under his burden, hold him
up.”
What is this burden?
Sin, and the temptation to sin.
Who do you know
today, who needs to be held up?
The other question
that comes into play is… “Will they allow
themselves to be held up?”
Waking with Jesus
every day, is not to be done, solo.
The church needs
other people, to join in this pilgrimage.
How comforting to
know, that God distinctly put special people in our lives, so we would not fall,
and so that we would not stumble…
