Bear One Another's Burdens
Bear one another's burdens, and so you fulfill the law of love.
When did I last help carry the load of someone beside me?
📝Reflection
Everyone walks under a load of their own. Many who look fine on the outside are carrying something heavy within. Paul says share those burdens, carry them together. A burden does not vanish when shared, but it becomes bearable when carried together. I remember a moment in my own hardship when someone simply lifting one side beside me felt like being saved. Love is nothing grand—it is putting a hand under one side of the load of someone who looks weighed down. A weight that would break you alone can be walked with when two share it.
