GET YOUR PITCHING ARM READY

 

 

Psalm 55:22

 

"Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved." ESV

 

We can literally throw our worries and concerns on the Lord with full confidence that He will protect us. He is ever faithful to those who have a heart of obedience and desire to please Him. As long as we live in the world, we will have trials and sufferings. But, we don't have to carry the burdens and fall under the pressure. We have total access to give them all over to the Lord and be free of the burden of worry.

 

Heavenly Father, we thank You and praise You for always opening Your arms to carry our worries and burdens for us. We give you honor for this freedom You give us to worship and glorify You before all people. May they be drawn to You as they see us rejoicing in You though we are plagued with troubles. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

CARRY EACH OTHERS BURDENS

 

 

Galatians 6:2

"Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." ESV

Are we supposed to carry each other's problems and issues when we have our own to carry? In a way, yes, but not like we think. If we share with one another the issues and baggage we carry day to day, we are aware of the struggles of each other's burdens, and we are to keep these things in mind when we interact with each other. We will have a better understanding of why others think and act the way they do. We will not become defensive and take things so personally because we have shared and understand their perspective. This is bearing with the burdens of others. And remember, if we share our burdens with others, they are bearing with us.

Heavenly Father, how we seek to fulfill the spirit of the law by sharing and bearing with the burdens of our fellow Christians. Forgive us when we fail to do so. We ask in the name of Jesus, Amen.

CARRYING BURDENS

 

Galatians 6:2

"Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ."NIV

"Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ."KJV

How can we help others with their problems when we have our own with which to contend? Yet, we are told to help others with their burdens. The Lord doesn't ask us to do anything that He doesn't give us the grace and power to do. If we love God with all of our being and we love others as we love ourselves, we will be able to come alongside and help others with their burdens. That is fulfillment of what Christ said are the greatest commandments.

Heavenly Father, forgive us for getting so caught up in our own lives and issues that we walk past those who are so burdened they cannot move forward. Give us hearts of love that we will fulfill Christ's law by giving of ourselves to our fellowmen when they are so burdened down. We pray in His precious name, Amen.
