“Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ.”Galatians 6:2 NLT
This verse comes after the exhortation:
“Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself.”Galatians 6:1 NLT
Would you have thought that was sharing their burden? Probably not! We are not good at helping fellow believers who have fallen into sin, rather we tend to judge them and complain about them.
Therefore, in this new light, how can I share another’s burden? What can I do for them? I can talk, pray and direct, give.
What is the law of Christ? It is to love your neighbour as yourself. Jesus also said, “love one another as I have loved you.”(Jn 15:12) how did He love us? He gave His life for us. Amen!
