VERSE OF THE DAY

i subscribe to this verse of the day thing and today's was quite good. so i thought i'd post it here as a piece of encouragement:

THOUGHT:
I feel so burdened myself, that sometimes I can't even see
others burdens. But Jesus reminds me that if I am to be like him,
I will be a burden carrier. This is why he came, why he died, and
why his resurrection is so important -- to lift from us the burdens
of sin, death, and depravity. He has blessed us by carrying our
heaviest burdens so that we might lighten the load of those around
us.

PRAYER:
Compassionate Father, help me to see the burdens in the lives of
others around me and then respond to those burdens with help. I
want to be a blessing to the broken and discouraged, so please help
me find my place and my way of serving to your glory. In Jesus'
name. Amen.

Carry each other's burdens and in this way you will fulfill the
law of Christ.
~Galatians 6:2~
