There are people that want to do things by themselves and for themselves. There are times when we may try to work with someone that doesn't want help or there may even be times when we are that person not wanting help. Not accepting help can make the task at hand harder to accomplish, but there is another way!
We are reminded to carry each other's burdens. We are called by God to help each other! In order for us to help each other, it is true that we have to be willing to lend a hand, to help another carry a burden. However, we also need to be ready to accept that help when we have our own burdens. We can fulfill God's law by helping and by accepting the help that He provides through others!
Be willing to carry others' burdens and allow others to help carry yours!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all those that You place in my lives that can help carry my burdens. Help me to accept their help and to offer to carry the burdens of others, too. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
