Just how important do you think you are???
Good morning to all!!! What a great day to be alive in the Lord Jesus Christ!!! I hope your past week was good!! I did not have my computer for 3 mornings, sorry. It was a good week but exhausting as well.
May God have mercy on you as you travel and go about your daily/weekly activities. God is good all the time, all the time God is good!!
Stop just a moment and look at Galatians 6........ I will spend this week sharing the good news of this chapter with you. Seven days to cover 18 verses.....this should be manageable.
Galatians 6:1-3 "DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, IF ANOTHER BELIEVER IS OVERCOME BY SOME SIN, YOU WHO ARE GODLY SHOULD GENTLY AND HUMBLY HELP THAT PERSON BACK ONTO THE RIGHT PATH. AND BE CAREFUL NOT TO FALL INTO THE SAME TEMPTATION YOURSELF. (2)SHARE EACH OTHER'S BURDENS, AND IN THIS WAY OBEY THE LAW OF CHRIST. (3) IF YOU THINK YOU ARE TOO IMPORTANT TO HELP SOMEONE, YOU ARE ONLY FOOLING YOURSELF. YOU ARE NOT THAT IMPORTANT."
No Christian should every think that he or she is totally independent and doesn't need help from others. The body of Christ - the church - functions only when the members work together for the common good. Do you know someone who needs help? Is there a Christian brother or sister who needs correction or encouragement? Humbly and gently reach out to that person offering to lift his or her load. (John 3:34,35)
Be cautious of the third verse - "...you are not that important." Does this talk about pride? Be in check, watch your actions for a day, see how you respond to ones around you!!! Share Jesus with someone today. If you tell someone about Jesus write back and let me know, please. Thank you for reading. Love you all!!!
In Christ's Love and Grace
