Bear Another's Burdens

"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ."  Galatians 6:2.  Christ has a law by which we are to live.  It is a law that considers others and serves others.  In serving others, we serve Christ.  Matthew 25:40.  Christ was one who bore the burdens of others.  He healed, delivered, and forgave.  People around us have burdens.  We help, strengthen, and encourage.  We pray for and with the burdened.  We give support.  "For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself."  Romans 14:7.  We must make ourselves a part of the community.  Burdens carried by many are easier to carry.  The road is easier to walk.  The shoes are more comfortable to wear.  When we bear the burdens of others, we help the burdened and we glorify the Christ.
