Burden Bearing // Psalms 68:19
Praise be to God for bearing our burdens. All too often we feel or fear that we must shoulder our problems alone. Thank that Lord that isn’t so! I love how 2 Corinthians 1 shows us that God comes alongside us when we go through difficulties, and then brings us alongside someone else to help them with theirs, too. This pattern of burden bearing is exactly how we can fulfill Jesus’ law of love as we read in Galatians 6:2, “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ” (NIV). So, let’s give thanks to God for helping us with our struggles and faithfully give of our lives to help others with theirs.
